Butterfly Bear
I'm a bit of a photography nut and decided to prop the card on a mirror to get this mirror image effect at the bottom. Its nothing new but something different and neat!
I hope you like the card and have a wonderful week.

Happy Monday Everyone
Well the first day of fall has come and gone, but you'd never know it here in Florida. I think the high today is going to be around 88! But regardless I am getting into the fall holiday spirit, so with that being said, here is my card for today...
I colored in the image with Copic markers, of course!LOL I used Halloween colors to give the idea that the cupcake is like a pumpkin. I then added Tim Holtz grunge bats, inked them up and added glitter to them to give them a bit of bling!
I hope everyone likes the card and that you all will have a fantastic week!
Take care - Jodie

Pet Angels
Hello my crafty friends! it´s me, Ileana, and I´m showing you another card I made to inspire your Fridays using Pet Angels super cute stamp (you can find it here!).
The patterned paper is an oldie from my stash and I chose it because of its versatility and soft colors. I punched tiny hearts and glued them around the image as a frame. The sentiment is hand written on a scrap of embossed vellum paper with fine markers, I cut each word separately with edge scissors, I distressed a bit their borders with chalks and glued them around the frame of hearts.
I colored the image with colored pencils and used puff white fabric paint to make the cloud, and finished the card with touches of gold metallic paint.
Hope you have a wonderful Friday, see you next week! and don´t forget to stop by for daily inspiration!

Christmas Surprise Kitty
Wow, I can't believe its Tuesday again. Time certainly does fly. Christmas will be upon us before you know it. I've been making Christmas cards when I can and decided to make this cute Surprise Kitty into one. Working ahead, I put together my next card last week....I must have been high on caffeine because it had everything on it but the kitchen sink which really isn't my style. After some thought, the image was salvaged and came up with this final creation to share with you all....a.bright, cheery simple card.
Have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday
This cutie was colored in with my Copic markers. I used a Cuttlebug folder to emboss the pink cardstock, then added my saying and a charm for a bit of bling.
The chocolate chips on the cupcake were white pearls that I used my Copic marker on to make them brown!
Enjoy your Monday everyone and have a great & creative day!

Sew fabulous!
This is my first post as a 2 Cute DT member so I need to introduce myself before describing the cards. My name is Ileana, I live in Madrid (Spain) and I have a wonderful and supportive family. I discovered the digi world at the end of 2010 and I jumped into blog land this last January (my blog here), so I´m pretty new to all this and I´m loving every minute! I´ve been crafting all my life thanks to my mom but I started making cards four years ago, it all begun as a self imposed therapy and I got completely hooked by it! Soooo... enough of rambling about myself! let´s jump into the fun part.
For this first post I made two cards with different colors schemes: boy and girl maybe? I chose this overly cute Cat-knit, printed it out twice on white paper, I colored them with crayons and oil pastels and blended them with mineral oil.
here is a closer view (click the image to enlarge). Do you want to know how I made the yarn? I hope so!! I used white puff paint (the one I have is fabric puff paint but any kind will work great too!) to draw the threads, let it dry and puff it with iron steam, once it was all puffy and pretty I gave them color with chalks. I took black paint and retrace the kitty arm to bring it to the front again. To finish the images I glued a piece of green or pink embroidery floss, cut and place them with foam tape on the cards.
The sentiment is from TLC creations that I printed out on craft paper and the finishing touches are flowers made out of scraps of paper, ribbon, left over buttons, brads... you can use whatever you have at hand! The green patterned paper is an oldie from my stash and the pink paper is wrap paper I saved because I liked the pattern a lot.
I hope I´d inspired you with this two cards. I´ll see you all next week, have a wonderful Friday!

It's Tuesday !
I’m Kathie, one of the new kids on the block and for my first post, I present to you this super cute Cupcake Kitty card I made.
It is such an honor and I’m thrilled to be given this fabulous opportunity to create along side the others on the DT! I’ve only been cardmaking since July this year and it certainly has been a wonderful journey! Did I say I was addicted?
I don’t mean to get sappy but I dedicate this card to my fellow DT mates and new friends I hope to make going forward. Now back to the card.
I made this card using fall colours as it is almost upon us. It is a very beautiful time of year here in Ontario, Canada but I am not looking forward to the cold winters we have.
The image is coloured using Copics and I used the Atyou Spica markers on the sprinkles. I just picked up the corner dies by Provo Craft and I love them! I’ll try not to use this one on all my projects. LOL
Until next week…..have a wonderful Tuesday but do come back to see what my other DT mates create this week.
Hugs, Kathie

Happy, Happy Birthday
Today is another Monday, meaning that it's time to post my latest creative inspiration. Here is a birthday card that I've been working on...
Even though this little guy is a cool customer, I used orange, red and yellow for the card. He is colored in with Copic markers and the print paper is handmade with gold accents.
Please enjoy and have a great start to your week!

Hi There...
This little cutie is the latest image from Heidi, and he's adorable. This one is my favorite so far. I colored him in with Copic markers, then added pearls for accents along with ribbon. The frosting also got a bling makeover when I added Stickles Glitter Glue.
Please enjoy and have a great rest of the weekend!
