My Love....





This is for Kraft It Up (Love- and pink)! This has a picture of my little dog Dorothy, and she was out in the snow digging tunnels! She had a ball out there! It was over two feet deep, so she would dig a tunnel, then pop up to see where she was! Was so much fun to watch! I have journaling on back of lo, which I sometimes like to do! I layered and distressed all the papers, used my kraft paper for the background. I added liquid pearls everywhere too! I did a ton of cut work on all the leaves, even distressed them, and added some dimension to them by putting a "fold" in them ( I saw this technique done on ENCZOWO's work, she's so talented!)I also did some sewing. Thanks so much for takin'a peek! Teresa*

LOVE U.....





Thia is for Once Upon A Sketch, The challenge was love for a male........I decided to do this one of my youngest grandson.......we have such an awesome bond, he is so close to me, it's amazing to me! We are so much alike too, he even loves to go to the scrapbook stores and the scrap conventions with me too! We love the outdoors, going on walks is a fav! I have a hidden journal tag under the long strip of paper! I layered and distressed all the papers using the sketch provided. I did some cut work, and I also added lots of tiny embellie's......butterflies, birds, tags. etc. I added a piece of Dusty Attic fence, and a bow. Hope you like it, and thanks so much for stoppin' by and takin' a peek! Teresa*
