Winter Scene with Robyn's Fetish

I made another scene featuring Robyn's Fetish images that I want to share with you.

This time I used Gimp (freeware) to arrange the cottage on the page and I even flipped one of them.  The right front cottage is larger and the other two are successively smaller to show perspective. I printed the scene on Copic X-Press It paper.

I added two of my favorite Robyn's Fetish snowmen to the front yard of one of the houses.  The trees are from Stampscapes and Art Impressions - 243A, 085A, and the birds 302A are Stampscapes. Plenty of Stickles was used to add sparkle to the paths and the roofs of the cottages.

I colored the sky and paths with Panpastel Phthalo Blue Tint and then added a bit of green around the base of the trees. The trees were stamped with Momento green and Print Works Fern Green.  The houses and snowmen were colored with Copics.

Our theme this week at Love to Create is "Give Thanks".  The timing is perfect as this week the U.S. celebrates Thanksgiving.  

My card features an image from our sponsor Robyn's Fetish that reminds me of visiting Apple Hill just outside of Sacramento, California.

The kids and I would drive out to Apple Hill and buy up all kinds of apples (by the box) for making pies and applesauce. Yum!

Tweet, Tweet - A Little Birdie Told Me!

My card today is for the Creative Craft Challenge.  I used a really cute Robyn's Fetish image, A Little Birdie Told Me.  I colored it all over with Copic markers and then punched out flowers to pop-up where Robyn's flowers were on the image.

Oops the picture is a little crooked!

I found some clear gems from my stash to add to the center of the flowers.  I thought the Sizzix embossing folder would add a bit of dimension to the overall card.

Summertime Fun Challenge

Today my card is for the Love To Create Summertime Fun. I used an image from Robyn's Fetish that is just perfect for this challenge. I also used the 4 Crafty Chicks sketch for my design.

I smoothed in the sand and sky with PanPastels. Love the applicators because the color just glides on smoothly.  I also used them for the bathing suite.  Then I colored in everything else with Copics.

Is it Time for Spring Yet?

Our days in the North West have been drizzly and cold of late.  Only in the last day or so have we seen a little bit of sun and of course, the threat of snow. I know much of the country is buried under the white stuff and I have nothing to complain about, but I thought I would offer this card of encouragement to all of us who wish Spring was a little closer.

This very appropriate image is Melting Over You from Robyn's Fetish Designs.
