Hunkydory

Festive Birds of Britain Luxury Topper Set

Owl & Pheasant

If you aren't familiar with these wonderful topper sets by Hunkydory Crafts you are missing out.  I recently purchased several different sets and I am hooked.  Not only are they easy to work with but the quality of the product is outstanding.  Each kit contains ample accents and cardstock you could easily create 3 or more cards or any other paper crafting project you have in mind.  They are inexpensive and absolutely a paper crafter's dream.  I have included several pictures of the cards that I recently created using the Owl & Pheasant kit. They can be purchased online directly from hunkydory crafts.

Montage

I'm so excited to share with you today this absolutely stunning photo book I created through Montage. If you aren't familiar with this company you really need to go check them out. The album quality exceeded my expectations. Creating your very own photo album is so simple. Simply create an account, add your own photos (via PC, Facebook, Instagram, Picasa and more) select photo book details (size, style, layout etc.) Edit and Preview and place your order. I received my album in less than a week. The quality of the album is amazing from the rich leather cover to the rich colors and paper used for print. You won't be disappointed.

Steampunk Style is making waves.......

Steampunk Jewelry (shop all)

"Steampunk" style is making waves, influencing jewelry designers, artists, crafters and clothing designers alike. It carries an inventive, time-merged feel, merging science fiction with the Victorian look, complete with antique technology and steam-powered inventions that sprang to life during the late 19th century. Within this style, special emphasis is placed on repurposing lost treasures and incorporating mechanical materials with imaginary functionality into designs. This waste-not-want-not philosophy is embraced by many because it runs contrary to the disposable culture we live in today.

Besties Spider Ella IMG046

I just love Fall! Soon it will arrive and along with all the falling leaves and chilly nights comes those adorable cute and scary ghouls and goblins.  I wanted to share with you all an image from My Besties - Sherri Baldy a Digital Image - Spider Ella IMG046 that I colored using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Ink markers.  

I glitzed this card up by using pumpkin border punch and spider web corner punch

by Martha Stewart.  To add sparkle to my pumpkins I used Stickles.  We all love stickles, right!!

When coloring Ella I layered greys,blues,greens and purples.  This is such a fun image to 

color.
