gnome is where your heart is

today's a to-for day! i am posting two cards!

and i'm so happy i was able to use another gnome digi image in another challenge at pixie dust studios! this week was challenge #34 called, 'cute as a button'. and all of their images are just that!!





for my card, i took a crack at coloring it with colored pencils (as opposed to paper piecing, which is what i usually do with their digis), for the first layer. then i used glitter in a rainbow because, come on, what's glittery-er than a rainbow? :) then for another added layer of unexpectedness - i used some liquid glass for the clouds, flowers, lady bug dot and patch on the gnomes hat. i loved how that came out! it made everything i used the liquid glass on pop up a little, so the clouds looked puffy!




i used a rub-on for the word, and punched out some teeny tiny hearts for the 'rain' (and popped them up - i couldn't make a card and NOT pop something up). and of course the button is the sun for this card.

anyway, enjoy!
