Embossed Bird Card and Tutorial
Today, I am sharing a project and tutorial with this pretty bird.
Sentiment: Just you doing you makes you beautiful.
I made this card a while back, but I am just getting around to sharing it here.
It reminds me of my mama.
I just love the bird silhouette and the awesome sentiment together.
Here is a quick tip video tutorial for this project.

Teapot Flowers Inspirational Card & Tutorial
An inspirational teapot card for today.
Sentiment: Find beauty in the simple things.
I am a tea lover. However, I have never used a teapot as a planter or vase. Good idea though.
The teapot is paired with an inspirational message that I love.
Watercolor with oil pastels, droplets and a simple frame finished it.
I was going for the look of green milk glass, by mixing colors. It comes close, but not what I intended.
It does come close to the color of the year though. ~ Greenery.
Here is a quick tip video tutorial for blending water soluble oil pastels as watercolors.
And here is a closer look:
I hope this inspires you to think outside the box, get a little messy and try making new colors now and then.

A fun card with flowers and a camera.
Here is a camera themed card with flowers and a FUN sentiment.
Sentiment: Smile till your face hurts.
The background was created by using the image in multiples, then using Copic markers for color.
I though that this fun sentiment needed to be showcased.
With a little frame, flag, twine and a tiny camera charm, it all came together perfectly.
This is great for congratulations, birthday, friends, family and celebration occasions.
Here is a video tutorial for it.
