Designer Spotlight - Charlene

Hi, everyone!  Thank you for stopping by today.  ^_^  It's already the second week of December.  Time flies when you're having fun, doesn't it?  Today, I'm feeling Christmasy again, and this lovely creation by one of the AuroraWings Challenge Blog's DT member, Charlene Short, caught my attention while I was looking at the submissions album. (Yes, in case you didn't know, there is a submission album at the FB group where you can add your cards to be showcased on this blog.  When your piece is featured, you get a blog badge and a free digi of your choice - up to $4 value.  So be sure to add the best of your creations to the album today!  Holiday themed pieces will most likely get a lot of attention for the month of December. *hint hint*)

Here's the lovely Christmas card by Charlene with "Mistletoe Fairy" digi.  I love this sassy little fairy all dressed up and ready for a party with a hair of mistletoe.  Just love the way Charlene colored her, giving her natural mistletoe colors with red ribbons and pearls for the berries.  I also love the forest green and gold color scheme throughout on papers in traditional holiday motifs.

You can find the "Mistletoe Fairy" digi at the AW Etsy shop and AW web shop.  This image is available as a 300 dpi JPG digi at 1500 x 2100 pixels (5" x 7"/ 12.7 x 17.8 cm).

Just want to mention the current offers going on at AuroraWings before I wrap up this post.  ^_^

Featured Creation by Charlene

Today's showcase feature's a lovely creation by Charlene Short using one of the ballet images, "Star Dancer".

Don't you just love the pretty papers and the bright blue accents?  The flow of the image is extended by the die-cuts to the right, adding just the right touch of movement.  And the cute ballet slippers!  Just gorgeous!  You can read more about her creation on her blog here.

"Star Dancer" is available at both the Aurora Wings Etsy shop here and at the digi shop at the AuroraWings web site here.  The image is 1800 x 2100 pixels at 300 dpi JPG, measuring 6" x 7"/15.2 x 17.8 cm.

Triple Feature: Anita, Charlene, & Elaine

Hi, everyone!  Thank you for stopping by today.  I have an unusual feature today of 3 crafters' work, using the same digi "Red Poppies".  I thought I'd bring this feature since we had so much fun checking out our designers' different takes on "Anima Sola" last weekend. ^_^  Here are creations by Anita Byrne, Charlene Short, and Elaine Preston.

Elaine

Anita interpreted her creations in shades of orange, Charlene in green, and Elaine in red. (Click on the links under their creation photos to go to the individual posts featuring the particular piece so you can read all about them and give them all some love.) All have their own personalities come through in the ways they color the image and add all the embellishments into the layout of the cards.  All are so beautiful!!  I really LOVE seeing my digis getting colored by many crafters.

"Red Poppies" digital stamp comes as a 1500 x 2100 pixels, 300 dpi JPG line art image (5" x 7" / 12.7 x 17.8 cm) and is available at both my Etsy shop here and in the digi shop at my site here.

I'm so glad to have the FB group and this showcase blog where we get to see them all in one place.  Every day is a feast for the eyes with members sharing their gorgeous creations!  I really do feel that some of the most awesome inspirations are found at our group and challenge blog. :D  Thank you for your submissions, and happy coloring!
