Frustration

I was working on a very detailed graphic and finally had to take a break, a rest.  Even though I'm not ready for Christmas to be here, I was in the mood for celebration!

Gaelic

This is one I just did up tonight.  It's our naughty pony Gaelic.

Last of the files I had in my folder

Here's the glass block decoration:

Chinese Dragon Paper Lamp (cut on vertical lines and not on horizontal)

Christmas Cards

I made these reindeer for Christmas cards, but lo and behold, they were too big for the blank cards I bought!  Well, I decided to use them to create decorations for our cubicles at work, then made smaller deer for my Christmas cards.

And here are my cards:




I wanted to do some chalk, but even though I'd opened half the craft room boxes from moving, I could not find them.  Oh well, there's always next year!

English Tack

I started on this file, then moved on to other projects.  I came back to finish it and decided to expand it with paddocks and chaps and a dressage saddle.  I haven't decided yet if I'm going to tackle a bridle or not.  Hope you like it.  Please leave a comment! 


The boots are made to layer right over left, but they can also be used alone.

Haunted Halloween

Its a little late for Halloween but I was really challenged with this one (Sandy McCauley helped me out greatly) and I ended up really happy with the final product so I wanted to show it to you.

More files

I found some more files I worked on.  I'm cleaning up my folders so there will probably be some more.  This Ethiopian boy outfit was a special request. 

BTW, any paper dolls files can be downloaded for FREE at www.quillingpatch.com!

This is a mat with 'puzzle' parts for kids to assemble:

Samples

Here are samples of my very first KNK Studio projects (I've only been at this for about 2 months).  I did not have access to my KNK until 2 weeks ago so I'm just starting to cut.  I enjoy creating things, trying to turn my visions into usable files.  I got a lot of practice making paper doll outfits and am glad I was able to contribute to a group whose files I have downloaded.  I did some special requests, such as this soccer uniform, the airforce uniform, the hockey uniform, the Ethiopian boy and the Korean girl outfits and they were just as fun - I enjoyed the challenges!

 
This little russian girl outfit turned out cute.

Although its not a paper doll, it could be converted - this one is for my little sister!!!  She loves Rudolph.

First projects

Here is a picture of my daughter and her horse. 


I imported it into KNK Studio, took a lesson with Sandy on tracing, and created the silhouette.  I used it for decorating a glass block and for large stickers to go on the side of our horse trailer.  Because of the cold, I can't install them but once I do I will post pictures.  Maybe around March or April!  LOL.

Here's a glass block we made for a 'horsey' friend.  The other was a jumping horse/rider with the words, "Every girl needs 2 things:  a horse, and a mother who will let her have one".  I used Tim Holtz alcohol ink (copper) on the back glass.  I also want to try it with 25 or 35 "Christmas" light sets.
