A Winged Madame and Her Key

A No. 8 Tag featuring "Madame Dragonfly", some butterflies and a Celtic Key. Every time I stamp Madame Dragonfly, I highlight a different element in her hair. She fits perfectly in the width of this tag.

I colored in the sunflower on the left side with a bright yellow, adding orange in the center with Inktense Colored Pencils.

I stamped 2 butterflies with Black StazOn onto the same blue, textured paper as the background and cut them out. I then coated them with glitter glue, the bottom with a dark blue glitter glue and the top one with a pearl, iridescent glue. In the center of the butterfly is the Celtic Key Rubber Stamp on white shrink plastic.

I designed the Madame Dragonfly rubber stamp myself. All of the elements in the hair were selected and strategically placed to create a whimsical, half fantasy, half real looking model. I didn't want her to have too brooding of a look, so I gave her a partial smile, like she knows a secret and is about to share it with you. I hope you have as much fun with this stamp and I did and invite you to post or email me your Madame Dragonfly project!

New Coloring Booklet Casual Chic

We have a new digital download available: It is the Casual Chic - Modern Fashion Plates Coloring Booklet featuring 12 girls dressed in cute outfits along with accessories such as eyewear, hats, purses, and some even have a dog with them. All of the girls measure over 6 inches in height and print onto 3 pages (landscape). The outfits are fun and unique. You will always be challenged to use various colors while practicing your shading and blending techniques. I had such a blast creating the examples for this project. Tip: If you have not already, this is a good way to get to know what markers you have. There is a color swatch area to label and try out colors before committing onto a character, which is especially helpful for skin and hair. In my case, I got to know which skin tone markers I had. Between 2 sets of brush tip markers, I was able to create a variety of skin colors so that each girl did not look identical to the next. The best part is that you do...
