Kitty Love

Hello all you crafty peeps!  I created a super fast card today.  I used one of my Wink Wink Ink images called Love Cats.  There are a couple of versions when you buy this...I used the silhouette version.  I masked off the bottom where the fence is and brayered the top part to make a night sky.  Then I took the mask off and colored the fence.  Add some gems for the Mom and Pop kitty.  Easy peasy! 

Don't forget the Wink Wink Ink challenge is running through May 24th, so hop on over and join us!  The challenge is to use any WWI image and make any card that is not a square or rectangle.  Don't have any Wink Wink Ink images (for shame)?  Try out this cutie called Happy Day, for a limited time! 

Doodle Dragon Studios Release Day!!!

More Zindorf-esque Cards...

Hi all!  Sorry I went MIA for a few days.  My computer or internet service isn't liking blogger.  How RUDE!!!  Don't they know I have things to do?  Anyway, I'm back and here to show you some brayered cards I made while over at my friend Peggy's house last week.  I figured I better get them posted since we're having another fun filled day of stamping and coloring (and maybe more brayering!) tomorrow.  ;O)

The next card is an image that we colored together the very first time we got together...in July.  I have just gotten around to making a card out of it.  Slacker, I know!  :O)

OK...be sure to come by tomorrow for a fluttering good time!

Fluttering By with Zindorf Style!!!

Good morning all you crafty people!  I'm back in action with Flutter By Wednesday #81!  This week is another open week...just use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation.  :O)

I actually used a dragonfly, but it's pretty close to a  butterfly if you ask me!  I made this card using a brayering technique by Michelle Zindorf.  I got to catch up with my gal pal, Peggy yesterday, and she showed me how to do this properly.  If you remember, I tried one of these several months ago and it didn't come out looking anything like this!  I'm tickled as can be with it...what do you guys think???

I hope you enjoy my card this week! Be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations! Ann, Cassie, Chris, Christine, Danni, Harriet, Heather, Jodi, Kristie, Michelle, Nancy, Nicola, Stef & Taylor.

Michelle Zindorf Inspired Card

Hi all. One of the most creative bloggers I've ever seen is Michelle Zindorf. I can spend hours on her blog reading and drooling. LOL! I used her blog for inspiration when I made the following card. Look how great my bow turned out! That never happens! :O) I don't think it's too bad for my first try at something like this. Let me know what you think...should I keep trying more of these?
