Twilight




I'm gearing up for the upcoming
DVD release of Eclipse!

I was going to make these Ornaments
for all of my Twi-hard friends but they
are a PITA to make.
Because they are layer with CS vs just coloring
on the transparency they had to be
assembled in the ornament...

If your a Twi-hard you will get it
if not...No I'm not crazy just a
fan having fun! lol

Altered Mailbox





Rainy Day in Maryland.

Its a good day to stay home and alter something!

I found this really neat mailbox at a local thrift store
for $2. I loved the scallop boarder around the top
of the mailbox.

Sorry the pics are so dark! One day I'll have a stamp studio
with lots of natural light....a girl can dream.

I painted the box Cherry Red (lowes) it matches SU cherry cobbler perfect.
Used Greenhouse Gala DSP (SU) to cover the middle of the box.
For the scallop I use the new SU die Tasteful Trim and
chocolate chip CS. Then used some crocheted flowers
from the same thrift store, made the leaves with a nestie die and matching DSP,
the pearls are from MM they were white and I needed cream so I colored them with
a light brown copic marker.

Hope everyone is have a great day!

Stay inky my friends!
