Three Witches Brewing

This is the year for me to make Halloween cards, usually something I don't do, but the images from KLM Digital Designs are just to cute to not color them up!  This is Three Witches that I have colored the entire card front with Copic markers. Just love these little witches!!

Welcome Fall

Fall is in the air here in British Columbia!  We have brought in all of the tomatoes, and I am slowly cutting down the perennials in preparation of winter slumber.  Yesterday I planted about 80 bulbs of various spring bulbs, and still have about 80 to go in the ground!  Yes I went a little crazy buying bulbs!!
To celebrate the season I have colored up the Pumpkin Girl digital image from KLM Digital Designs. I printed the image on to Copic Xpress It cardstock and colored it with Copics.  Some older Kaisercraft paper finished off the card.

Gnomes Love Pets

Good afternoon!  It's a perfect day to stay inside to avoid the smoke that has descended on us here in southern British Columbia.  It is so bad that Canada Post has halted all deliveries of mail!!  I feel so bad for everyone dealing with the fires in western states!!  Stay safe everyone!!
Today's card is another adorable image from KLM Digital Designs - Gnomes and Pets!  I printed the image on Copic Xpress It cardstock, colored with Copics, and then fussy cut it out.  The background was created with a paw print stencil from my stash, and the following Distress Oxide inks - Ground Espresso, Vintage Photo, and Rusty Hinge.

Wolly Hope...

I love the images from KLM Digital Designs, and this sweet little sheep is definitely top of the list.  How can you resist the sheep and the awesome sentiment!  I printed the image on to Copic Xpress It cardstock, and then colored with Copic sketch markers.  Double matting tied the colors of the sheep together to make this card.

Happy Birthday Champ

KLM Digital Designs is known for their adorable Gnomes, but did you know that they also have other designs!  This is just one of the newest designs available today in the store - Basketball Player.  I printed the image onto Copic Xpress It cardstock, and then colored it with Copic markers.  The sentiment is also a part of the stamp set, so it was easy to merge the two into one image.  I kept the card clean and simple, and it would be a perfect card for the special teenager in your life!

Thank You to Firefighters Everywhere

This post is to salute the firefighters around the world who battle all types of fire.  Living in the beautiful Kootenay's of British Columbia, every summer we seem to be surrounded by forest fires, and this year is proving a little too close to home.  Just a short 15 kilometres away we have the Talbot Creek fire raging - close to 300 hectares have been lost and the fight continues.  Some days we have smoke and the smell of the fires, others are not too bad.  
My card today features another gnome from KLM Digital Designs - Fireman #2 Gnome!!  I printed the image onto Copic Xpress It cardstock, colored with Copics, and then fussy cut the image out.  The card front was created on watercolor paper with the use of Color Bursts and Liquid Metals from Ken Oliver.  The sentiment was one I created on my computer.

True Friends


Welcome to my sharing another adorable image from KLM Digital Designs!  This is Friends With Nature digital stamp, that includes this sentiment plus two more!  I have colored the image with Copic sketch markers, then fussy cut it.  The card front was done with Mowed Lawn, Faded Jeans and Salty Ocean Distress Oxides inks, to which I added an older Memory Box die, and then the image.
