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.

Challenges:

Seems a Little Sketchy - Sketch
The Crafty Bloggers Network - Anything Goes
ABC Christmas Challenge - G is for Girl or Guy

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.

Be sure to head over to the Digital Delights Blog to see what my teammates have to share with you, then check out Delightful Challenges to see what they've got planned.

Challenges:

Sketch N Stash - Stash
Digital Tuesdays - Boys
Ladybug Crafts Ink -Child or Teenager

Flutterbys

Hi there.  I hope you are all off to a great start this week.  It's time for another challenge over at Can You Digi It?  Spring is here in the US, and with spring comes Butterflies!

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.

Challenges:

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

Copics:

Dress, Shoes, Headphones:  R22, R20, R00/Y15, Y13, Y11/B02, B00
