I used Tri-Blend Markers from Spectrum Noir to color up some cute digital stamps from Sweet November for this Fall/Thanksgiving themed Thank You Card. Watch my video for a color tutorial and also a few tips for adding extra details to your stamps with pens. Visit my Youtube channel to check it out or watch below.

Each May artists on Instagram create mermaid themed projects for #MerMay. I love mermaids so I try to create at least one mermaid card each May. This one was made using a digital stamp and a Glaminator Foiling Machine. I love the shimmer foils can add to digital stamps. It also makes them easy to color because the foiling can’t smear.

This sweet fairy is visiting another fairy friend to bring them some flowers. I shopped my stash (using product I already own instead of buying new) using a digital stamp from Sweet November.

I used an adorable witch stamp from Daisy Church and some liquid masking fluid to create a fun Halloween card. This technique is perfect to use with digital stamps to add a background to a one layer card.

I used to love Sweet November rubber stamps but they stopped making them a few years ago. But I recently found out they are offering digital stamps over at 7 Kids Crafts! I got two new images Gully the Seagull and Talise the Mermaid, so cute! I used them on a card with a cool colored pencil and blender pen technique I learned from Simon Hurley.

I’ve been using my Silhouette machine alot lately, I love mixing die cuts with stamps, it’s perfect if I need an image to complete a look I want but don’t have the right/perfect stamp and with the Silhouette I can make it any size I want. I love this machine.
Here’s a few cards I’ve made lately. The first card was for my besties b-day. It mixes a digital image of Marie Antoinette I colored with colored pencils from the Graphics Fairy site, (if you love free vintage images this is a must visit site, it’s awesome! I linked this to their Brag Monday) along with alphabet stamps and a die cut cupcake from Lettering Delights. I love how it came together.
The next card I made just wanting to play with shapes, the deer is from Lettering Delights, the rest are from Silhouette.
This last card was made for my husbands aunt who works on a horse farm here in KY. One thing I like to do when planning out a card that is all die cuts is to pull all the images I’m planning on using up on the computer screen at once, that way it’s easy to size and lay everything out to make sure it fits and looks good, I got that helpful tip from Nicole Magourik.
I’m so excited and honored to be in the latest issue of Altered Hearts digital zine! One of the contributors Edeena Cross contacted me recently asking to include some of my art work in their July issue, after I said “yes, of course”, she decided to feature alot of my work and also asked me questions about my background, working process, inspirations, etc and now there is two whole pages devoted to little ol’ me in their zine, how cool is that!?
The online magazine can be found at Scrap Artists. Click here for a direct link to the July issue, it’s only $3 and totally worth the few bucks, it’s chocked full of great interviews and art work from some really terrific collage artists.
Here’s the magazine cover, you’ll have to buy it to see my article and the rest;)
