I made several pumpkins and colored them with copic ink

My Hero

Charles August Lindbergh Jr. has always been my hero.  His Biography is so amazing..I strongly recommend it.  Also both his father and mine had the same name:  Charles August.  He also attended my high school Redondo Union High School and no we were not classmates.  Redondo is a very old school..I know I am older than Dirt....but not dirt quite that old.  I have a large collection of Lindbergh ephemeria and decided when I found the Desiree Frame from Creative Imagination this was what I needed to display a small part of it.  I love how the frame gives you such a large area to collage on.



The small photograph at the side shows the crowds at the arrival of the
 Spirit of St. Louis in France.



This is a stamp from Viva las Vegastamps

Lindbergh Postage Stamp 1 3/4 x 1 3/4

Item no. 17408

I am really proud of this stamp.  On a visit to  the actual Viva las Vegastamps! 
store.  Wayne, the owner, asked what stamp I would want if
I could have any stamp design I wanted and Wha..Lah the Lindbergh postage
stamp.  Wayne you're the best, thank you again.
 I am from the original VLVS design team 
and am very pleased to be back on the 
current design team.  Check out the our DT blog at Vivalasvegastamps

I stamped this onto a piece of Ecoart board and glazed it, chalked it and  
baked it to get this sepia look glazed look.

Festive Friday Christmas Card Blog Hop

   


                                            TIME FOR CHRISTMAS     


I have always wanted to do a Steampunk Santa. 
I stamped all over the card with "nesting gears" from Vivalasvegastamps.com


I love dimension and had a great time with my steampunk supplies.  The majority  of the items were
attatached with glue dots.  (Which I found you can't leave them  in the sun very long.  While doing my photo shoot they started melting....heads up!)

Festive Friday Christmas Card Blog Hop



                                                                     " Face in Fir"







"Face in Fir"
item number 17963 (plate no. 1371 

I fell in love with this new stamp.  The card was made using three copies witch I stamped with Momento tuxedo black ink.  The layers were  colored with
Copic pens. I used the original copy for the background and the other two I used to cut out seperate
branchs to add depth.  I attached them with glue dots.


Next I used double stick tape to form a border around the card.  I over laid  these with 2 different
layers of Chrismas papers forming a shadow box effect.  This was attached to the card.   I added a few red dot embellishements.
