KittenTag

Hello fellow Crafters, I would like to share a sweet tag that I have made for my Crafters Companion weekly post. This is a great tag to be turned into a bookmark; and it is perfect for any occasion. Isn't this kitten so cute?

 She is part of the Strawberry Kisses line Birthday Kitten Set. I am usually not attracted to cat stamps but this one is just too irresistible! Humphrey won my heart but the Strawberry Kisses line is sneaking up on me. I for see more kittens and dogs in the near future!

 Here is a closeup of this super sweet kitty. I have colored it with my distressed inks, fussy cut around the image and mouthed it with foam squares on top of the paper doily. Added some Stickles, ribbon, banners, fancy button, and done.

Thanks for visiting; wishing you all a crafty day!

Hello All! I am here to share a tag, a challenge, and to bear some news.

 TTT will now have terms for their DT members and we were asked if we would like to stay on the team for the first term then we would have to apply to keep our position. Now at first I thought I wanted to stay on this FAB team because it truly is FAB! But recent changes in work have taken me into a different direction. So I am sorry to share that I will not be part of Top Tip Tuesday any longer....sigh. Looking on the bright side of things; this is a great way to keep the blog active and renewed; so be on the watch out for a DT call!

 Now onto the challenge: TOP TIP TUESDAY current challenge is  

FOCUS on the RIBBON

and so here is my creation!

 Here is a closer look at the gorgeous Fae Fairy from Delicious Doodles; I just had such a blast coloring her up and truly love how she turned out.
TIP: I have added Opaque White to the butterflies and also to her eyes as they seemed a little dark; I think it really helps to add that highlight.

This weeks sponsors are:
