Desert Christmas

Hello crafty friends :o)  I'm here with my Heather Valentin post..... this month is Christmas in July.

Christmas in the desert might actually be beautiful, not everywhere has white Christmas.   This cute image from Heather Valentin called Santa Ted Off to Deliver Packages was colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  I bought the metal boot years ago, thinking one day I might use it .... since Ted is wearing cowboy boots, it seems fitting.

Here's the inside.

thanks for looking and reading :o)

Egyptian Life

Hello crafty friends :o)  I'm here with my Lacy Sunshine, also known as Colour of Love by Heather Valentin.

Some new images are in the store.  This is Eleanor and Pickles Egyptians.  I colored the image with my Prismacolor pencils.  The pyramids and wall were drawn in with permission.

I added some metal pieces, but painted and inked them up to go with the Egyptian theme.

A metal brand used at the bottom with the same technique.

Here's the inside.
