Nurse Bear Digital Stamp Carrying Bandaid Teal Get Well Soon Card

Today I'm a guest blogger at Pin and Tack's Vegan Barbecue Bonanza event! It's a huge leap for me from my usual crafting entries because I wrote up one of my favorite drink recipes! It's quick, healthy, refreshing, and easy to make!

I would highly suggest heading over there throughout the week as there are other interesting guest bloggers (you can also enter for your chance to win prizes)! :)

Ok, turning back to crafting I have decided to use a digi stamp for the second time in my life. lol I don't know what got into me--maybe it was the cute free digital stamp from Bugaboo this week that inspired me--but I just wanted to do it. 

They have a nurse bear carrying a bandage which I colored in with both colored pencils and markers. The heart I filled with red glitter. The plaid paper is actually laser printed. You can get your free digital copy from the hybrid chick. 3 blue eyelets run parallel to the side of it. "Get Well Soon" was stamped with black ink. Bear nose was colored with Smooch ink.

Pink Cat Studio Stamp and Quilled Flower Card

Hi everyone!

I want to wish you all a Happy May Day (or May 1st)! For those of you who may not know, this is a celebration of spring or for others...protests. lol Let's not talk about that part though. :) This topic leads me to the new Tuesday Alchemy challenge this week which is to create something inspired by May Day! It is a really beautiful day here in NYC to draw inspiration for this theme that is sponsored by Pink Cat Studios. The winner of this week will receive 3 digital stamps!

This is what I have made for May Day:

I used the Lily Holding Flowers digi stamp--chalked it and colored parts of it in with colored pencils. The hem of her dress, eyes, and the centers of most of the flowers are dabbed with liquid pearls. The grass and flower are quilled to simulate her standing in a field/garden.
