D2D dt call

Faith is looking for design team member(s). I love, love, love her images so I decided to apply. You can go here to see the details of what she is looking for in a design team member. I wish her luck in finding the perfect person/people to complete her team. I wish you luck if you go for it...but I want to be on her team! LOL
This is the image I choose, "Hoot" the owl. I paper pieced his wings and belly. I wanted it to have the "Americana" feel. Then I colored the background blue. But, wait a minute...Owls aren't out in daylight, so I had to find a way to tone down the blue. I think you'll see it turned out pretty good. I just went over the blue with my Prismacolor marker, Brick white.
I had some red gingham ribbon to add and a blue star. This card will be sent to OWH for our troops.
Happy Crafting

Valentine's Card, OWH Bloghop-November 2010

Image
Hi, I'm Shirley. I'm fairly new to making cards, about a year now. And very new to blogging. But I am very excited about both. You'll find more information on an AWESOME group I'm making cards for. It's called Operation Write Home, OWH for short.  They collect mine and many, many other talented card maker's cards and send those to our troops for their personal use to send home. It's give's me a warm and fuzzy feeling thinking I might have made someone smile with one of my cards. :) Below is my Valentine's Card I made for the OWH Bloghop. The heart pattern is in the CardMaker Magazine, March 2010 issue. I have been very busy making more Valentine's cards since this one. I see pink and red hearts in my sleep. ha ha Archway Cookies has pledged to match OWH Valentine cards collected by December 1st.  So now would be a great time to join our OWH family. However if you would like to send in Valentine's cards after this deadline please have the

Moving

I am in the process of moving my craft room from a tiny back bedroom . That room faces the NW, windows on both sides, 3 doors and a closet. Oh and there is the utility closet also. So you can imagine hardly any wall space. Since sit just me and Lucy, the cat, I have no problem with my craft room moving to the front/living room . I don't have many visitors so that won't be an issue either. Recently I was blessed with a wonderful gift of a lot of stamps, inks, and paper. I'll be posting more paper crafts but may not be able to tell who the company is for some projects . So I'm off here and back to the moving. Have a wonderful weekend and Happy Easter 🐇 if you celebrate. Shirley
