Gnome Sweet Gnome

Look at this cute little gnome village, it's so little and so cute!!  This is the final release over at Some Odd Girl and I just love it! This release has been so fun, love the gnomes and the Build a Background??? Awesome and can be used for so many different scenes! 

Time Enjoyed is Not Wasted Time

We are up with Day 4 of the new release over at Some Odd Girl which is Build a Background, it is full of mushrooms, bushes, and trees, all fun things to create amazing backgrounds and scenes. 

I had fun creating another art journal page and love this quote, I think it goes perfectly with the fishing gnome and girl gnome, I just imagine a pile of books next to her as she sits and reads for hours while her sweetie fishes the day away!  ;)

Day two of the new release over at Some Odd Girl and we have this cutie to showcase!  I have a fisherman in my life and this is just the cutest image ever, this will be perfect for a birthday card or a thinking of you...I think the next time I use this image I will use the sentiment "You're a great Catch"  :D  

I colored with copics, used mostly cardstock, and a couple charms attached my fishing line and tiny staples.

I'm so excited to be the May Guest Designer at Scrap Our Stash!  Scrapbooking has been a love of mine for more than 25 years, I've been making cards a lot lately but am trying to get back to getting my pictures in albums!  I am so happy to have come across the Scrap Our Stash challenge blog that is specifically for scrapping.  I'm an avid reader and the 1st challenge of the month is inspired by a book cover.....LOVE that!!  

So here is my layout, the inspiration picture is below and a little bit of a description below that! 

The layers of color in the sunset inspired the background where I added paint and ink to tone down the light purple and leave streaks similar to the sunset.  I used coral, pink, lavendar, yellow and a light teal for the colors.  I found this picture of my daughter which was perfect to go with the flower requirement, and added a black and white daisy pattern paper that I tinted using my copic markers, and then I have hearts running down the right side of the paper, inspired by the big heart on the book cover. Such a fun book cover and I can't wait to see what you all create! 

Exciting news....

I've been invited to be on the design team over at Some Odd Girl!!!  I've been such a fan of Kristy and her fun images for many years and have created some of my most favorite projects using her whimsical, fun, quirky images.  Below are a few of my favorites!
