Happy Monday Crafters....
I will be using the Pink Cat Studio "Dogs" set for my class scheduled on the 26th of July, so I'm creating some samples for that day. I still haven't thought of what projects to make... that'll come to me within the next 2 weeks, in the mean time, I'll be making samples using this set.
The paper is from 3 Bugs in a Rug. I love their paper. They are 65#, thick enough to my liking (Jo, you would LOVE these!!). Right now I don't have any 3 Bug's Paper available for purchase, but I will have them in a couple of weeks from now. I used Julee's sketch from her pdf book online (thanks Julee!!), and I was set!! I used Prisma Color Pencils (colors used was Sienna Brown, Carmine Red, Black and Lt Blue - hahaha, not showing in the photo, I must've missed it) together with Gamsol to color my image. The sentiment is from SU!, which I punc
hed out using the 1-1/4" circle punch, and I punched out a stamped paw print from PCS's stamp set using my 3/4" circle punch. The ticket punch came in handy for the pink layer right under the circle punch. Then I cut a layer of black right behind the pink ticket punched cardstock. Grosgrain Ribbon is Pretty in Pink from SU! That doggie is such a cute cool diva. She's fab!!!
I haven't shared with you a photo of "today's Hawaii" in a while. Sorry about that. I just keep forgetting to add it to my postings. So... here I have a Bird of Paradise flower to share with you, which I took during my walk sometime last week. This is a pretty flower, I just wish all the other BOP's around it wasn't dead, or I'd be able to share with you a whole yard of it. Can you see why it's called a Bird of Paradise?! Pretty trippy, huh?!?! Ok, have a great week...
Wow at first I thought was a bird, lol

Ok first of all I have to tell you how much I have always loved this Bird of Paradise plant/flower. I tried looking for this to give to my daughter's boss when she opened her own hair salon. I never ended up getting it because it was over $100. to get it...too expensive for me, so she just got a regular plant from the florist. Oh well I tried.
ReplyDeleteThis card is so adorable & so French...we,we!!! Luv it!!!
I thought it was a bird too! :-) Fabulous card!!! I like the little paw print in the center of the punch and your colors.

ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have this as a natural flower in HI. It seems like the only time I see them here in MI, is at funerals, kwim?
This was my grandfather's favorite flower, rest his soul in peace.
