DT Spotlight - Shirl

Today's spotlight is brought to us by Shirl of Creations by Shirl!

Hello everyone~
Are you ready for Christmas !  It sure came fast this year and it's just right around the corner.   OMG!  
Well I'm in the spotlight today for Kitty Bee Designs and here is my Santa Owl card that I made and it was also given to one of the DT members (Tracey B).  We had a Christmas card swap that we did among the members and this was one of the images that I decided to use.

Well to all our Kitty Bee fans I personally want to wish each and everyone of you a very Merry Christmas and a joyful New Year 2015.   We will all see you back here in 2015 with lots of new stuff.    Take care and keep safe~

I love the colors you used in this card... love the bling in his hat!!  Make sure you swing by Shirl's blog and wish her a wonderful Christmas too!!

DT Spotlight - Leanne

Hello Kitty Bee friends & ohana!

After Thanksgiving it always takes me a while to really get in to Christmas card making.  This year I didn't have any trouble starting ahead of the game.  So if you're not feeling in the Christmas spirit yet I hope my card will jump start you.


I used this cute image called, Bun with Heart, on today's card using my Copics to give it a little Christmassy feel.  I'm actually thinking this would be the cutest card to send to someone who just recently had a baby.  I can always change out the sentiment if that's the direction I wanted to go in.   One of my favorite images, to use year round.  There are more sweet images in the Etsy store that you can purchase to create the perfect little card or project for some Christmas fun. 

This is my last spotlight for 2014, I hope you have been inspired and that I've brought a little smile to your world.  Happy Holidays everyone and blessings for the New Year!

Cheers & lotsa Aloha,
Leanne
