Saturated Canary notebook - so pleased with how this turned out!


 I made this notebook for a friend at work - she was my Secret Santa & I saved this for the last day because I knew she'd know it was me!!!  I have used PACK LIGHT from Saturated Canary because it totally IS Lindsey!  She is fun and funky and loves to travel & this girl even looks like her! So, it was a perfect match!!!  I used some fun paper and coloured her with Copics, added a bit of sparkle to her clothes & purse, then tied a bunch of ribbons to make it fun!!  I even made her a matching pen!!! The little rhinestone letters are from Recollections. I used my ticket corner punch for the corners of the image, and my crop-o-dile to punch the holes in the notebook cover so the wire could go through!  I am so pleased with this notebook - I love the colours & I love love love the image!!!!!  


Here is a close up of the image:


And the inside of the notebook - covered and pretty!!!


I am entering this into Challenge 33 at Saturated Canary - it is a photo inspiration of blues - and I thought this fit in perfectly with that!!

I am also entering this into Fun with Shapes &more which is Small Christmas present, Sweet n Sassy Stamps which is your favourite colours, and Stamping for the weekend and Wags & Whiskers which are Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs,
Chris

Love to Create Challenge - Winter Fun



(PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO SEE MY SECOND POST FOR TODAY!)

Good morning everyone!!! Happy Monday!!!!!
                                          This week the LOVE TO CREATE Challenge is   

Winter fun



This week we have TWO sponsors -QKR Stampede and Dearie Dolls

Not sure where I got this paper, but I thought it was very "non-Christmassy" but still looked very cool with this adorable penguin (who, actually looks like he's had a few too many egg nogs!!!)   I have coloured him with Copics and added some 3D white paint as snow under his skis.  The sentiment is from an old set I've had forever!!!!I also added some stickles to his hat.

Thanks for stopping by!!!
Head on over to the challenge blog to check it out!!! HOPE to see you joining us!!!!!

Hugs,
Chris

I have used JJ -Christmas Cheers and have coloured her with Copics and added Crystal lacquer to the glass she is sitting in.  I love the effect it gives!!!  The CS is Hunter green and Riding Hood Red (SU) and the embossing folder is holly leaves - I believe it is from Tim Holtz (I borrowed it from a friend at our crafty weekend!!!)
