The Many Allys of Allywhitecat and Ching Chow Kuiks Crimson Holly

This beautiful image has been in my art pile for quite some time. Lately I have been making cards I never have enough of them for friends and family.!...!...so...I have been placing some energy into a goal of having a surplus from all my stamps and digi's and never never coming up short again.

The name of this piece is Crimson Holly By Ching Chow Kuik if you follow my blogs you know I love many many artist and definitely Ching Chow Kuik.

I guess I am in a bluish mood today ..colored in prisma pencils..which my deer friend Ike started me with and I shall forever treasure and remember that tin of pencils that came my way ..and even though the tin is empty now(that set anyway) I still love my pencils.That is so important about enjoying what you do is to enjoy what you do it with when it comes to art. We all have our favorite tools.
Thanks for stopping in.

The Many allys of Allywhitecat and a Sweet pea card

Good morning and Happy day Before Christmas Eve.

I have a dear friend having a Birthday tomorrow and I wanted to share her Birthday card. I also want to show you a new product for me anyway one of which I plan on getting every color in available.

The product is by Viva called Inca Gold. My Inca Gold color is steel blue. Here is the card and some photos adding the Inca Gold "Steel Blue"

you can see the thin border I painted on using a detail brush and the Steel blue Inca Gold as well as the sea weed and bubbles and creases in her hair.
http://www.artistcellar.com/ is where I purchased mine.

The inside of the card was made using different products from different companies
I used a large sentiment die cut and water colored with I used turquoise green watercolor from Caran d' Ache. I layered in color three times letting it dry each time. This is also the color I used on the fron around the mermaid.

again I lined the border with Inca gold Steel Blue, using a liner brush.

I used gesso I Purchased from http://timholtz.com/tim-holtz-products/
It is Diane Wakley Media white gesso. It is my favorite there is not one I have tried yet I like more.
The stencil is from Dylusions 9x 12 bubbles large

The sentiments came from my store at Fun Stampers Journeyhttp://www.funstampersjourney.com/
My number is 263.

I added some ribbon and embellishments.
This beautiful image is from http://www.sweetpeastamps.com/
It is by Ching Chow Kuik called "Deep Sea Siren"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTY

The Many Allys of Allywhitecat and my ACT's sell and trade Monday musing

Hi everyone hope life is good to you right now.
I am still caring for my mom.But I am creating a all in one blog which is taking more time than I like which one of my sections will be the ACT cards I make to sell and trade.
I have had to take life differently since my mom was placed on Hospice, and the degeneration of her life at times  can be so over whelming I had to eliminate stress in every aspect I could. I do not want to give up my art and couldn't if I tried but found a tangled mess when I stepped back into my world a month ago. I thought ...what in the world was I thinking????? Things were just as I left them in July.
so I decided to break things into groups. Creating new items to sell or trade.
I will also be participating in physical shows this year so many items we are not to sell on internet but can sell in trade shows will be posted and if you would like to purchase them or trade you can email me at www.allywhitecat@gmail.com.
I will be posting here frequently so hope you check in often.
