This image caught my eye because a friend was doing a scrapbook for her sister who had miscarried and I think this image could also be used to signify a tiny baby in God's hands.

Eggs
The challenge this week at Sew Many Challenges is "Spring Fling" and as you can see, I have been doing Easter cards. The first card uses Halen Easter Egg. Don't you just love how his little hands and ears poke through the shell?
The DP is from a Seasonal block, which I believe is by Paper Studio. The ribbon is from the dollar spot at Target, the buttons are from the dollar area at Michaels, and the eggs are from the Seasonal Shop at Hobby Lobby.
The eggs are colored with Copics. I added some Stickles to the egg patches and the bow patch, I added Flower Soft "Spring" to the center of the flowers.

Blue Waters
Blue Waters - This lovey mermaid is Harmony by Michelle Perkett. I love how she is perched on the algue covered rock.
For Harmony, my DP is DCWV Old World Stack. The flower is K & Company, Blue Awning. I added some fine glitter to it so that it would sparkle. The pearl swirl was hand created from a variety of pearls and gemstone.
I colored Harmony with Copics and added some fine glitter to make her sparkle. I also added some Stickles on her flowers.
The challenge this week at Michelle Perkett Studio is Blue and Brown, a very easy challenge. You will need to use a Michelle Perkett image to enter. You can pick up a freebie Michelles group on Paper Craft Planet. You will also find freindly chat there. Join us in the chat, we love new friends.

Green Lavendar
I colored Vanessa with Copic's and I used a purple Spica pen to glitter up the heart on her bodice.
I roses are Prima and I used my airbrush to color the bigger flower and tuille sprill. They were both white.
Again the flowers are Prima's. I used a leave punch and curved it around in my hand to shape the leaves. I wrapper the purple wire around a pencil to coil it.
The ribbon is DCWV adhevise ribbon. It is nice to have the adhesive already on it.

Its Hard Being Green - I was thinking about how some people used to die their hair green using sugarless Kool-aid when I was a little girl when I was coloring this image. It was supposed to wash out, but they always had a hint of the green for a while.
This weeks challenge at Sew Many Challenges is St. Patrick's day and I could not resist using this image. I was chuckling as I was coloring him. This is Hershey bath. Isn't Hershey a great name for a chocolate lab? The real life name of the dog of the artist at Sew Many Cards is Hershey.
The DP I used is from the All Seasons by Paper Studio. I used ribbon that said Erin Go Bragh and a cute little shamrock shaped button.
Our sponsor this week at Sew Many Challenges is The Cutting Cafe and the sentiment is from one of their sets. I also used an old cuttlebug die for the corner scroll.
I finished off this card with some horseshoe gemstones.

My third card for today is a paper piecing 4 leaf clover by the Cutting Cafe. It was fun and very easy to use.

Goth Challenge
A long time ago, I had bought this Harry Potter set from Bugaboo, and I thought this was the perfect time to use it. Snape is the darkest wizard of those at Hogwarts, so I chose him. As Snape is the Potion teacher at Hogwarts for most of his time at Hogwarts, I thought it would be fun to include the potions shelf.
My DP and corner tabs were from the stash of a freind, who was cleaning out old sets and she gave me a lot of paper and punch outs, sadly, the name brand was not on any of the peices that she gave me.
The challenge at Michelle Perkett's Studio this week is buttons and bows. At first I thought I would do a frilly, girly image, but as many of you know, I like to think out of the box. A frilly, girlie image would have been too easy; so as you can see, I went with a musculine card.
DP is Cloud 9 design and Paper Adventures. Ribbon is dots and dashes. Buttons and brads finish of the card.
Junior was colored with Copics. I didn't want to make him girlie, so the only Stickles I used was Waterfall Stickles. Junior was cut with Spellbinders.
