My love of crafting started at a very young age.  I love creating art by hand and am always very excited about seeing the end result.  I am always working on perfecting my skills and learning new techniques.  My latest love is using high end markers to color images and add shadows and depth.  I have been experimenting with alcohol inks and watercolor distress markers.  Please check out my new Fine Art Card collection in my Etsy shop Vintage Paris Market.  I have used many adorable images here like Magnolia Tilda and Sarah Kay.  Love to hear all your thoughts.  You comments mean a lot to me.
Hugs and Kisses,
Salpi Marie

Blog Candy Continued!

Please do not forget to scroll down to see the blog candy!This ensamble took me 4 hours to make but I had so much fun. I just got this Pop-Up stamp and I was dying to use it. It was easier than I thought but time consuming because the pop-up is 3 layers high and I needed to fill each layer. I love the way it turned out.

I figured this cannot be mailed in an envelope so I decided to make a box for it.
I used copic markers and I air brushed the inside background. Wow, what a stuning result. The outside lily flower I had made a few days ago using Spellbinders and was not sure how I was going to use it.
You can find this set in my Etsy Shop!

Card Box

Thank you cards for Baby Girl Christening!

My baby girl is now 6 months old and we just had her christened in NJ.  While we were there we saw many good friends and family.  I am in the process of making the Thank you cards.  I have attach a few for you to see.  Please let me know what you think.  Many of the cards I made are uniform but I chose to make a few different ones like the cute Tilda you see here.  You can find more Magnolia Tilda and friends stamps Here! Look for more of  my cards in My Etsy Shop.

I also love olives so I made this card with my new Olive stamp I got.  I will use it as a thank you for your hospitality card.

Here are more Thank you cards using Spellbinders dies.

Magnolia Tilda With Rose

I love this cute image from Magnolia, Tilda Holding A rose. I used Tempting Tourquoise, Apricot Appeal, Vanilla and DCWV desigenr paper. Other tools used are Martha Stewart Border Punch, Spellbinders, Cuttlebug and for the coloring and shading I used Copic markers. Copic are my favorite coloring medium. Please let me know what you think.
