At Last - The Fairy is Completed - Kit And Clowder Class

Oh my gosh, I am so excited.   I finished coloring the fairy from the December class of Kit and Clowder.  Pleased with the results, but going to try a different type of coloring paper for my next project.   Alyce gives many suggestions on her website, I used a pencil paper I had here.    Just a reminder that Kit and Clowder has both classes for markers and pencils and offers conversion sheets for many of the brands. 

The fairy is a digital stamp image from Connie Fong
I did the coloring myself.

Working With Silver and Gold Leaf Foils

I have never been a fan of the FSJ Silver and Gold Leaf Foils until recently.   I discovered that they can be applied easily to double sided adhesive tape.

Here are some samples .... I put double sided adhesive tape on the card front (base) and then applied a die cut (butterfly or tree).  One die cut was in position, I then placed then rubbed the leaf with my fingers to get it attached to the adhesive.   The final step was to take a sponge dauber and brush off the excess from the die cut.   Very pleased with the results.

The butterfly was done in gold leaf foil.    A dear friend gave me the Gnome stamp set as a surprise last month.   I thought the little house, sign, and frog were the perfect accents for this card.  

The tree was done with silver leaf foil.

Happy New Year - Progress on my Fairy - Kit And Clowder On-line Class

Happy New Year!!!   May your new year be filled with many blessings.

I've been working on my on-line class with Kit And Clowder (they offer free ones too).   The December class is a fairy.   Here's my progress on her so far.   Almost done.   Truly enjoying the classes. 

This is the first time I have worked with skin and hair coloring.   Very pleased too with how her eyes turned out.

Seems impossible that I am almost completed with this class.   Just have the crystals left.   I need to work more with the background blending, but I am happy with my first try here.
