A Magical Day

Good morning friends ~ I thought I'd pop in and share this cute little dragon card I made recently for my great nephew's birthday.

I've been trying to pull out older sets that haven't seen ink in a while and give them some love, and this little dragon from My Favorite Things peeked out at me and wanted to play.

 

 I stenciled the background using white pigment ink to make a bokeh affect and stamped a few star clusters.  The sentiment is heat embossed.  The dragon is colored with copics and is sitting atop some fluffy stitched clouds from Memory Box.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed this little blast from the past.

I'll be entering this card into the following challenges:

Happy Christmas Bird

Good morning friends~  I hope you've been enjoying some glorious spring / summer weather wherever you are.  It's been beautiful here.  Too nice to spend too much time indoors.  I'd rather be outside when the weather is good because I know in just a few months I'll be stuck inside for the long winter.  

 

This card was made a couple of months ago and I never got it posted.  As I was blog hopping this morning, I see that it fits well with a couple of challenges so I thought I'd type up a quick post and share it with you.

 

This darling dancing bird is from Memory Box.  I first saw it used on my friend Michele's blog and instantly fell in love with this happy little guy, so I quickly went shopping to see if I could find him. 

 

As you can see the shopping trip was successful. While I was shopping, I picked up the pine branch and berries die set as well because, why not??

 The sentiment is an oldie from Papertrey Ink.

I think he's very dapper in plaid!

 

I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes

Peace On Earth Christmas ~ Inspired by the color blue

 

Krafty Chicks Challenge ~ Christmas 

 I hope you're enjoying time outdoors to breath in the fresh are and take in the beauty of the season.

Thanks for stopping by!
