Dr Digi: Out of bed, but Napping

Hello crafty friends!  I'm here today with my Dr Digi post.

The holidays are here and everyone is in full swing of being busy.  Every once in awhile, a nap would be great ... if you can find the time.  This image is Napping Neville and it was colored with my Prismacolor pencils.   Yes, I made that chair bright and green, just like my grandmother's chair (must have been the "in color" that year.    The sentiment is also from Dr Digi, on the Nap Sentiment sheet.

Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog #17: Christmas Tree Bags

Hello crafty friends!  4 blog post day today, so make sure you visit all the sister blogs for some inspiration. 

This post is for MLCCB, where we celebrate our Christmas projects all year around.

A friend bought some earrings as Christmas gifts at a craft fair, then asked me to make some little Christmas bags to put them into.

Using a Christmas tree stamp from Stampin' Up, the image was colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  Some white paint with glitter mixed for the bottom as snow and some golden Stickles for the star.   A little ribbon on the bottom for something extra.

Using another Stampin' Up stamp, I just added small gem stones and some Stickles to the center of the stars..  A little sparkly ribbon was added to the top. 

 thanks for looking and reading :o)

stamps: Stampin' Up

Mix It Up Challenge Blog #32: Play with Your Food

Hello crafty friends :o) The last month of the year is here and it's the busy holiday season.  Where did this year go .... way too fast.
Today is the 4 sister blogs posting day.  This is my post for MIUCB, a blog to try something new.  This month's twist is to use some veggies :o)

I decided to play with my spinach. 

I used a few different sizes and 2 different color of inks to play around with. The textures turned out really beautiful.  Some of the natural color was coming from the spinach itself.

Keeping the design simple with some die cut words, allows the spinach leaves patterns to really show what this challenge is all about.

Here's the inside.
