Here is a card I created with this adorable tea angel image from High Hopes. Being a big tea drinker--I was immediately drawn to this image. I just love Crissy's drawings.
The image is stamped in brilliance black ink and colored with Prismacolor pencils and Odorless mineral spirits for blending. You can see a tutorial here on this technique.
I didn't use any ribbon on this card (gasp!)..instead, I used the flowers to create an embellishment where I would have tied ribbon.
Isn't she cute?
Here is a close up image of the coloring and flower accents.
Materials used: Stamps-Trish Tea Angel, sentiment (High Hopes Stamps); brilliance black ink; Prismacolor pencils; Odorless Mineral Spirits (Gina K Designs); paper-white; designer paper-My Mind's Eye; paper piercing tool and mat pack (Stampin' Up!); Primas; brads (SU!); circle punch (SU!); oval punch (SU!); dimensionals (SU!).
And here are some pictures from our busy week---
The first one is my sweet baby Lauren---blowing out her birthday candles (3!) yesterday. I never saw anyone so excited to have a birthday!
And, finally, Ben on his preschool graduation night. Isn't he a handsome bugger!?
Back to packing! I HAVE to take a picture of all my stamping boxes---wow---my dh is floored that I have so much stuff! (Actually, so am I!)

Darling card and great job with it! What fun pictures of the little ones. Lauren is such a doll!
Totally adorable card, the coloring is fabulous and your children are very beautiful/handsome. She looks so happy, but I would too with that big chocolate cake in front of me and he definitely looks very proud.
Glad other things are slowing down for you, so you cab get on with your moving!!
Gorgeous card Cammie..and beautiful coloring..I love that tea angel too.
Great photos of your children ...what a beautiful family you have!TFS....I wouldn't even want to think about moving my craft stuff right now.....or hubby seeing the amount!!!!...LOL
Your card is so sweet! Tea-riffic (couldn't resist -lol) coloring!
Your little kiddos are sooo cute -- looks like they had a wonderful time this week. Good stuff! ;)
I'd like to see all your boxes -- it is crazy how much stamping stuff we collect, isn't it?! Scary how those boxes multiply.... Most of my things are still in boxes in the basement, although this past year I've bought enough stuff to fill up the house (which means when we finally move from here, my hubby's gonna freak when he realizes I have yet MORE boxes of stamping stuff -lol). ;)
Looks like you're having a great time with everything going on-thanks for sharing the cute pics! Good luck with the rest of your packing!!
Luv this image & your card! Lauren is such a cutie, she looks like a little princess!

And oh what absolutely precious photos of your babies!!! Such sweet memories!!! Ohhhh.....I kept telling hubby that I didn't have THAT much stamping stuff, but now that I have my own little craft room and it's all filled up..........ooooops......guess I did!!!! :)

Congrats with all your big events this week! Cute kids, great card.
I'd really hate to think of putting all of my stamping stuff in boxes and watching the boxes pile up. Wouldn't want my hubby or any movers seeing it, either! Good luck with your move.
