Sending yall a little treat today...

So this week hasn't been the greatest as I have been a bit under the weather, but today I feel some what better and hope things will improve over the next few weeks.  About a week or so ago I was able to sit down and create in my new little happy space.  Hubby happened to locate a stamp I was looking for so I took out my Tim Holtz Distress Markers and got busy coloring up this adorable stamp from Stampendous.

Here is a close up

So I had a blast using the distress markers to water color the image.  I also took some marker techniques to add feathering to the hair etc. 

Now I must find this image from Stampendous.. It is a must have...

It's called Hay Ride Kiddos... Isn't it adorable... I must have it. 

Thanks so much for looking and I will be back soon with another project.  Till then... Happy Crafting!

Settled and Missing you...

Wow I never thought with moving etc that it would be this long since I last posted.  Where did all that time go.  I swear it only feels like it's been a couple weeks since I last posted, but a month in a half is just crazy.  Well we are finally in Texas and settled into a small little 3 bedroom rental till we find the home we want to buy.  Since our master bedroom is so huge hubby suggested I take a corner and set up a little crafting area for myself.  I have to say I am rather lucky that he supports my crafting enough to put an area in our master so I wouldn't have to lug my stuff out from a closet or garage every time I wanted to craft.

Now that almost everything I need is out of a box and has a spot I am back to creating and I love my new little area as it's all clean and tidy etc; but I am missing all my scrappy friends from Washington.  I just so happened to have the perfect stamp set on my table and created a card to let all my scrappy friends back in Washington know that I miss them and I'm thinking of them...

Here is a photo of my little crafty corner... 

I am still looking for the boxes with my coke and wine crate to store my Copic/Pro Markers, My Twine, smaller stamps and washi Tape etc.  Once I get those they will be added as well as some wall decor.. I also need to paint my cubbie storage on my desk (the blue and purple thing).  I am thinking of the same color as the teal crates or maybe even white. Anyway this is my little crafty corner.. It's not a whole room like I had before, but it's only temporary till we find the perfect house to buy.

I will be back tomorrow with another project.  Till then.... Happy Crafting and thanks for stopping by.
