Fire-Breathing Dragon Card!

Fire Dragon card using Magical Dreams Stamp set

Watch out -- He's hot!

This dragon from the Magical Dreams set is Sooo much fun to color! I love that since dragons are mythical and no one knows what color they are they can be any color your heart desires! It's always fun to play with colors and try new combinations. This is the first "firey" colored dragon I've created. I used Inktense watercolor pencils on watercolor paper to color this guy with hot reds and oranges! Doesn't he look fun? I love the way he turned out. Then I put him onto a card with some great fall colors -- and those fun "gems" I found at the local craft store were the perfect touch of "bling" to set it all off!

Wagon full of Thanks!

Wagon thank you card by Newton's Nook Designs

It's Apple Season!

Have you been to an apple orchard yet this year? We just got a bunch of apple goodies from a local orchard so apples have been on my mind lately! This cute little wagon loaded up with apples from the Wagon of Wishes stamp set makes the perfect Fall thank you card!  I colored the wagon and apples with Inktense watercolor pencils on watercolor paper. Then I made it into a simple card with some Fall ribbon and paper!
