Today I invite you to the new
 Saturated Canary challenge blog and the theme for this challenge is Paper piecing.

 My sentiment was put together using a few of the LD sentiment sets. 

I used the Fairytale sentiment stamp to create the fun border.The sentiment,the coffee mug and the frame are from the new Coffee set rubber stamp sentiments.

 btw the coloring was done with Tim Holtz distress ink pads and refills.

The earmuffs,booties and bottom of her skirt has a touch of snow marker from Marvy for some texture.

I hope you could join us and please swing by the challenge blog to see what my team mates have done for more SC inspiration.

Thank you for swinging by and special hello's to my new followers :)

Any coloring suggestions are welcomed btw. I've been getting a few messages here and on FB asking me if I have coloring videos but sadly I don't have any at the moment. I do have a few step by step picture tutes if you search for tutorials on the search button on the right they should pop out. (ugh need to get my blog organize I know lol!)

I do have a new camera to record videos but what I don't have at this moment is time LOL!!!!

I have a line up of DT's and a line up of kids lol!

 The thing is I also do some creations behind the scenes that don't get featured here right away.

I have CHA cards from this past summer that not all have made it on here just yet but soon will I promise.

Like I said search my marker tutorials on here meanwhile and I know I have to create one for watercoloring soon.

Thank you for following me and the time you take to visit me.

Lots of sweet hugs and kisses.

OK so onto my showcase it's the Magnolia-licious team B turn to share some Inspiration for this midweek.
Every Wednesday a few of the Magnolia-licious DT gals will have a line up of Inspiration to share using Wee stamps, Wild Rose Studio or Penny Black!!!
 
With that said I was caught up and got lost coloring this Wee stamp name Summer Fairy one day that I was home alone.
I used all copics this time and the neon on her wings is actually a neon ink pad but I did touch it up with the FYG1 copic.

Lots of pictures to share :)
 
the coloring was done using a faint line technique.




an open sentiment to your liking.
 Just check the occasion.
