Boo!

Happy Wednesday bloggy friends! We have made it half way through the week. Yay!


I am here to share another cutie pie from Whimsy and Stars this morning. This is another one of Mabelle's new Fall images, isn't she adorable? If you go check out Whimsy ans Stars Studio today Mabelle has some of the DT's cards up for inspiration. There is sure to be some great crafty creations to ogle at.


I watched a tutorial by a fellow bloggy buddy Claudia over at Pretty Pressings the other day about shading. This is my first attempt at shading with Prisma pencils and gamisol. I did just a little this time. Maybe as I keep practicing, I will go a little farther. I usually use distress inks, but I wanted to give this a shot. If you haven't seen Claudia's cards, you MUST stop over and take a look at her blog. You will NOT be disappointed. Her coloring is AMAZING!

Perfection as usual girl. Going to check out this tutorial. Love that 31 Star. Simple but it caught my eye right away. Love that crocheted border on the gingham ribbon too. Good combination of everything.
