I LOVE to make a scene!!!

But you knew that already!!!

Welcome to the Blog hop!!! Be sure and visit all the sites below because some of them have PRIZES!!

Today is the day that the new Starving Artistamps Doodle Factory images are released and man, are they FABBY!!!!!

I'm a city girl above all else. I love all the chaos and the sounds and smells and sights. I miss NYC.

So this first one really spoke to me!!

I made a little tribute, in which I am the bird, thinking of big buildings and taxis and hot dogs on the street.

I colored the background with Copics and made the little glow around them with my colorless blender. The greeting is a rubon.

The birdie (me) is popped up with dimensionals. *sigh*

This second one is a teeny model, sort of. Depending on the building, I popped them up with two or three dimensionals so they are all different heights. Cool, huh?

Little Bloop has had his heart stolen by this Rooftops cityscape..

Then I played with the country scene. Still in popup mode, I paper pieced this one and varied the heights of the elements... I loved putting my teeny version of Rupert, who is in love with the sun, into this scene. Could he be any cuter? Looks like the sun loves him back. :)

  3. You guys are soo good with your "time of day" coloring". I just throw colors on and then keep adding on and hope it works. My copics are going to shrivel up soon, I know it.

    Love the pop ups and the paper piecing, and Little Rupert!! Darling.
