Please do not disturb

I created this door hanger for my son's room

What boy doesn't want a Do Not Disturb door hanger, right?


It's for the latest challenge at Aurora Wings Challenge Blog
Here's a peek of what it looks like (not hanging on a door knob)

I just bought this image "Mischievous Little Lotus Sprite" today!  
You can find it HERE in the Aurora Wings ETSY shop.

I coloured this with soft yellow/orange/brown tones
I wanted to do some pen-stitching around the edge of it, but son said he liked it plain.
I chalked a cloud-like background (which is hard to see in the photo)

I'm sure this door hanger will get lots of use by my son.

I hope you like what I've created.

A fall cupcake sprite for you..

I created this card for the latest challenge at Aurora Wings, on the Facebook Page.

This time the challenge is All things Autumn, and I chose this cute cupcake sprite 
to create a fall-coloured cupcake card.

In our family there are lots of birthdays in September and October, 
so I decided to use the fall colours on this cupcake image 
to create a birthday card for one of my family members 
(it's still a secret who is getting this).

I often make cupcakes for our family birthday celebrations, so this is a perfect image!!
Don't you just love all the yummy icing/frosting on this little sprite. 
I know I do!!
I used the image WHIMSICAL CUPCAKE SPRITE which can be found HERE

I coloured it with copics and used some fall paper for the background.
I couldn't find my little white doilies in my stash
so I used a kraft coloured one on this card

I hope you like what I've created.

Happy Birthday...with Lots of Layers

I created this card for the latest challenge over at 



Sponsored by Polkadoodles


If you know me, you know I do a lot of CAS cards.

I used white to mat the patterned paper giving lots of images.
