Out of all the fish in the sea - Prom

Out of all the fish in the sea - an idea for prom and as a result this card.

The card is an easel card using the easel card base from silhouette online store. And so is the paper ribbon. The words were typed on silhouette studio with a font I had and then cut with SD. I mostly use SD for print and cut. Paper for stamp is GinaK. Love this paper but you need to use double cut with silhouette on thickest setting. It is advisable to keep the cuts simple. . The fish was hand drawn and cut. The image is from Mos Digital Pencil. I have used diamond skittle. I am happy with the way I am coloring now.  I got to practice reflection too - Yeah. Sadly the stickles glitter is covering it up a bit.

CMC Birthday Bash

Color Me creative classroom by Suzanne Dean is having it's 2nd year birthday bash and each day has some fun events one can participate in. Day 4 had this sketch challenge by Tina

So my card for that is

The image is from Mo's digital pencil called Abby celebrating (http://www.mosdigitalpencil.com/products/Abby-Celebrating.html)

Everything was print and cut using the silhouette SD. The pattern paper is a silhouette pattern.
 I am enjoying coloring. It is so therapeutic. I am getting better at folds :). Thanks for reading . Hope you do go and break out the markers and start coloring too.

Little Rapunzel

Hello
I am a designer today on  Shes a Sassylady.
Sheila is an awesome lady and a wonderful friend.
Lately I have been coloring with copics. Still have ways to go before I am happy but here is a project made with the stamp I colored. This lovely digi stamp is from Elisabeth Bell called Little Rapunzel! I love her creations.
Here is the card .

No die cutting machine for this one - just Martha Stewart loopy punch for the border and corners and ek success retro flower punch for the flowers. Stickles ; ink; Cardstock ; (GinaK pure luxury cardstock for the for the stamp ); pattern paper;  Floral pin and some beads for the stickpin ; cake doily ; length of yellow polka dotted ribbon - 1/4" inch and a chipboard with flocked swirl (from 3 birds) and last but not the least copic markers for coloring the image. Since the card is is odd sized I had to hand make the envelope. To close properly one piece of 12 x 12 was not enough so I added the yellow cardstock to both the front and back and made it decorative and functional.
A closer look

And the inside of the card and the back of the envelope

Thank you all readers for reading this post

Some copic coloring CMC CHALLENGE #39

I am taking both Melissa's and Suzanne's class. Love Suzanne's coloring technique.  And if you have also read my previous post you know I have become a stamp junkie.
Suzanne has a challenge once in every 2 weeks I think. I am not quite happy with my coloring yet but I thought why not start somewhere. So here is my attempt. I probably could have done a better job if I had colored on a better paper. This is Bee paper and I do not like it very much. Prefer Ginak to this. I also need to try out the cryogen paper which I will be getting soon. But I had already printed out the digital image and so went with it. The reason why I don't like Bee that much is after just 2 layer of coloring the paper refuses to accept more ink and starts becoming blotchy. It does not soak through but it does not help in blending. In this image I had go and to choose to color in red which needs more blending didn't I? Lol.
Anyway here is the card I made. One always needs to keep the early images as one can later compare how far one has improved! So here is the card without much adieu

I like the skin and hair but I should focus more on folds.
Now both these coloring was done under pressure I should say. I had a guest who wanted me to show her how I color in front of her. I told her I am a newbie but she insisted. Here's the other. I made that into a bookmark later for her

The first image is a digital stamp by SomeOddGirl called Flower Girl Mae
And the 2nd one is stamp by Suzanne Woolcott Gorjuss girl - goth girl.

Something So Sweet

Hello


This is Pam @ Papillon Digital Designs & The Bug Bytes - your designer today at She's a Sassylady .
I am so thankful to Sheila for not only giving me an opportunity to share here but for being such a great great friend!! Valentine day is approaching soon and many of us are in a rush to make gifts and cards. So I thought I would make it simple on myself and make quick gifts and cards. Last year I had gone to Target and got some mailboxes and decorated them.  (The gypsy file is on my blog if you want to make one of those). This year when I went to pick more of them for myself and my friend -  I found more cute things there -  heart shaped plastic boxes. I also picked up some dollar items - ribbons, heart candy gems, foam sticker shapes and $1:00 paper pack and best of all heart shape doilies which seems to perfect for the box. And of course you gotta have candy!! So I got some jelly beans candy packets and M & M's. I also ( I think I am "also" too many times  but..) had empty washed  Bertolli pasta sauce glass bottle which I thought would make an ideal gift when decorated. Armed with all this plus some bling, twine and different kinds of adhesives I tackled the .. uhh delicately of course as the items are a bit fragile :)..
Now I have joined the copics class my friend Melissa is teaching and I wanted to start practising and get some digital stamps all ready for when the class begins. When I saw this stamp - http://www.mosdigitalpencil.com/products/Cotton-Candy.html thanks to my friend Kymberlee of course I had to get it and use it.

Here's my project

Very very quick to assemble. The card is also a quick card with base as an ivory card and envelope from Micheal's or Hobby Lobby and the rest of elements from my target supplies.

Printing and cutting designs like my own, Dover or digital stamps like these -  is why I love my silhouette. I use SD for print and cut  of  standard paper. I cut the stamp with height of 2 1/4  inches as I did not want it to be taller than the bottle. And boy! is that tiny for me to color after coloring up 15" x 22 " watercolor paper!!! Small real estate I tell you!! But I am enjoying coloring nevertheless. Makes me feel like a miniature painter!! :)

Here is the look at the silhouette file

Closer look

Heart shaped Target box. Don't you love those doilies? just a buck for 25 of them. And I am so happy with my eyeballing of the heart shape - "be mine" which I cut with Silhouette.

Thank you & Happy Valentine to all of you my friends and do share your project with us here at Sassy's.
