I'm So Happy - DPDC30

This is my entry for the Doodle Pantry Digital Challenge. I found this site through Linda Weber's blog and I'm so excited. I've already made a wishlist of the images I want to purchase, but the first thing I did was go to her Freebies page and download the images she is so generously giving away. Isn't this one a beauty?


I fell in love with this little bird immediately. The sentiment is also from Doodle Pantry. I created the frame for the image using my Silhouette Cameo. I used the negative space of the cut file instead of the cut file itself. I thought it looked perfect for this happy bird. I colored the bird with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers. Added a butterfly bling and black metal bling. I layered this on black card stock and then a white card stock base. Just looking at this little bird makes me happy!

  3. OK, I'm back without my DT hat . :-D I'm your latest follower and just wish you had the "Follow by E-mail" option on your blog. I'm so good at making blog visits but only when I get notices in my e-mail box that something has been posted. I'm just NOT good at checking the readers. Of course I see your work over on Outlawz all the time but that's not quite the same. If you ever add the E-mail option, will you let me know? Thanks.

  10. So happy you let me know about your blog. I am now a follower too. Your work always amazes me. You are an inspiration. As to giving you tips on a blog, I don't have one. I cannot see myself taking the time to do one at this point and time. I spend way too much time on the computer as it is.
