3 x 3 Butterfly Notecards

Hey there!  Just a quick post today to share a couple of cards that I made.  I've made a few other cards using this great set of digis called Butterfly Bliss by Delightfully Distressing Designs.  This time I decided to make a couple of 3" x 3" note cards.

You can find these digis over at the Can You Digi It? shop.  The set comes with 7 different butterflies, so you can add as many or as few as you like to your project.

Happy 3rd Birthday CMC!

Well hello there!  Boy do I have a treat to share with you.  We are celebrating the 3rd birthday of Color Me Creative Classroom!  We've got 4 days of fun for you all and you can check it all out here.

We've got a blog hop to celebrate as well as tons of fun and activities!  Plus, you can get discounts on some of the classes offered at CMC.  Check out all of the details here.  

Now let's get on with the hop.  You should have come from Michele's blog.  If you didn't, you can see the full line up below.  Saturated Canary was kind enough to give us images for the celebration, and for my card I used this totally adorable Pricilla Pie digi.  She's totally cute, right!

 

I printed her onto Cryogen White Cardstock and colored her with my Copics (R85, R83, R81/E11, E00, E000, R20, R21, G40/E29, E25, E21/5, C3, C1, C00/W5, W2, W00/BG10).  The DP is from a MME paper pack that I totally forgot I had.  I just love the pink/black color combo with this image.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the swirls are a cut file from Bird's Cards.  I added some cheesecloth under the image.  I'm really starting to like using that stuff.  The ribbon, button, and sparkly stickers are from my stash.  The tag is from Tim Holtz, and the pretty pink twine was a gift.  I also sponged a bit of Tim Holtz's Vintage Photo ink around the edge of my image.

Don't forget that if you leave a comment on each DT member's blog (thru Tuesday) you will be entered to win (1) of TWO crafty online gift certificates.  Here is the lineup in case you get lost along the way.

Rosie

Hey, hey, hey!  It's another Delightful Thursday over at Digital Delights by Louby Loo.

For my card this week I used this adorable Flower Power Rosie digi.  You can also get her already colored.  I printed her onto Cryogen White Cardstock and colored her with my Copics.  My DP is from Imaginisce and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I used my MS punch for the leaves, pulled the ribbon and pearl adhesives from my stash, then added the chipboard piece that I got from my LCS.

Ship of Love

Well, hello again!  It's time for another challenge over at Can You Digi It?.  This time we've got a sketch for you. 

Piece of cake, right?  For my card I used Emma & Edward at Sea by LilyPink Designs.

I printed this digi onto Cryogen White Cardstock and colored it with my Copics.  I have to say that I am loving the orange and yellow color combo lately.  Throw in a bit of turquoise and it's perfect.  I used some of my pretty MME papers then ran the bottom panels through my sewing machine.  I used one of my MS punches along one of the panels.  I added the ribbon, button, and twine from my stash.  The sentiment is from the Paper Studio and stamped with my Orange Color Box ink.

You've got plenty of time to enter and play along with us.  Go ahead and give it a go and show us what you've got.

Relax

Happy Thursday to you all, and a Delightful one it is.  That's right, it's another Delightful Thursday over at Digital Delights by Louby Loo.  For my card this week I wanted something that was quick and simple.

For my card I used this Relax Barnaby (colored) image.  I just love these pre-colored images that Wendy has over at Digital Delights.  They are wonderful when you've got to put something together on short notice.  This image does come uncolored as well.

Skating Tilda

Hello again.  It's time for another challenge over at the CMC Copic Challenge.  This time we want your image to have some RED in it.

I decided to get a head start on my Christmas cards this year.  I typically wait until the last minute and have to scramble around.  I decided this year that was not going to happen, so I started with this cute image of Tilda in her ice skates.

You have until April 26th to join in the fun, just make sure you use your Copics, ProMarkers, other alcohol markers, or colored pencils.  Plus, be sure your image has some red colored on it as well.  One randomly chosen person will win a 1 year subscription to Through the Craftroom Door magazine.  Plus, each entry goes into a monthly drawing for a $25 gift certficate to Oozak.com!  How cool is that!!! Just remember, you can't win if you don't play.

Toot Your Own Horn!

Hi there.  We've got another Delightful Thursday over at Digital Delights by Louby Loo.  Last week you may have seen my Singing Sally card featuring one of the digis in Wendy's new release.  Well, this week I made a card using another digi from the new release, Tommy Trumpeter.

I paired this digi with the Sail Away digital paper pack.  I used my Copics to color the image, then added some buttons and twine.  I don't typically add a lot of bells and whistles to boy cards.

Happy Birthday Sweet 13!

Hi there!  I hope your weekend is off to a great start.  I wanted to share a card with you that I made for my niece, who turned 13 recently.

I've had this image from Saturated Canary for a while and thought it would be great for this card.  I printed her onto White Cryogen Cardstock and then colored her with my Copics.  The DP is from BasicGrey.  I added some WOC flowers as well as the pretty green one from my stash, and the leaves are from my MS punch.  I pleated some ribbon across the middle and added the pearl adhesives from my stash.  I used one of my Spellbinder dies for the pendant, printed the "13" on my Silhouette, then added a bit of twine.

Simon Says Stamp - Happy Birthday
Saturated Canary - Pretty Pastels
Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Girly
