Morgan 's Artworld New Koriah

Last day to enter Die Cut Divas' March challenge of "Anything Goes".   This post represents both Die Cut Divas and Morgan's Artworld challenges, the last day of Die Cut Divas' challenge and the first day of Morgan's Artworld April challenge.

The more I worked with this image, the more enamored I became.  The colors seemed to flow after I figured out what my first color would be (green).

The Morgan's Artworld Open Challenge is always "Anything Goes" 

Challenge dates are April 1st through April 27th, 2019 

on Australian Eastern time (Sydney).

A2Z Scrapbooking has a New Challenge and March is Color It In

Sometimes you color some things, cut them out and they sit waiting for you to get some inspiration to continue.  I thought receiving new dies would bring me inspiration and THEY DID.

Very simply, I created a background of dies and staggered the cups up the smallest die-cut, then die cut a sentiment.  I'm a tea drinker and my breakfast tea is always in a cup or mug, so my sentiment has to be one for tea.

Be sure to join the challenge at A2Z Scrapbooking.

A Power Poppy Card - Autumn

I know it's not Autumn, but my friend and I colored a great image and I wanted to share mine.  This is a Power Poppy digital stamp and I thought it would be suitable for just about any event from a loss to a birthday with a "thinking of you" message.

It's All About Coloring This Month At A2Z Scrapbooking

I have loved the 2018 Christmas selection of stamps and I had to use the gingerbread house in a non-traditional way.  Gingerbread is not only for Christmas.  I know it seems as though everything is floating, but they somehow float together in harmony.  Well, that's the way I see it.  

I have to ask you, if I hadn't come right out and told you the house was a gingerbread house, would you have suspected immediately and exclaimed, "OH MY, It's a Gingerbread House"?

My CCC Card

Card Chain Challenge Reveal Time

A friend, Christy, sent me some wonderful die-cuts which I hadn't had a chance to use until now.  Using some light colors on the leaves, fence and other elements  gives a watercolor effect.  I really like how this turned out.  I sent this to Dee, though truth to tell, I really would have liked to keep it.

Supplies:
Hero Arts Beach Frame Fancy Die (die-cut gifted from a friend)
Friend die - unknown - die-cut gifted from a friend
Water color paper
Navy blue card stock
Copic markers BG10, E50, E11, C0
