Saddle Easel

Hey, hey, hey!  Quick post today.  I wanted to share another notepad card that I made, this time using an image from The Digi Shack.

I used my Copics to color the image.  The papers are from Creative Imaginations and the flowers are Prima, Recollections, and WOC.  I used my MS punch for the leaves.  The lace is from my LCS and the pretty pink and brown ribbon is from Paper Temptress.  The pin is another from my stash that I made recently.

Little Darlings - Flowers
Southern Girls - Get Your Girly On
Crafting Life's Pieces - Sketch
Digi Doodles - Pink & Brown

DINO-mite!

Hello again and I hope you all are enjoying your weekend.  We've got another challenge for you at the CMC Copic Challenge.  This challenge is all about Celebrations.  Color your images that celebrate something.  Our sponsor, The Pixie Cottage, gave us each an image and I chose Polkadotasaurus.

As soon as I saw this image I knew he needed to be blue and green.  Luckily I had these totally cute papers from MME that look great with it.  Of course, I colored him with Copics (BG13, BG11, BG10/G24, G21, G20/Y11, R20/W5, W2, W00).  I put some DCVW white core cardstock in one of my new embossing folders and ran it through my Cuttlebug, then sanded it down a bit.  The twine is from my LSS and the buttons were in my stash.

We would love for you to join us for the challenge.  One randomly chosen person will get a $10 gift voucher from Pixie Cottage Stamps, plus all entries go into a monthly drawing for a $50 gift certificate to Oozak.com.  Go here to join the fun.  Anyone can play along.

Challenges:

Cute Card Thursday - Animal Magic
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Crafts and Me - Embossing
Papertake Weekly - Sketch
Cards for Men - Texture
Kaboodle Doodles - Emboss it!

Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Tilda with a Daisy

Hi again.  Today I'm sharing an easel card I made with a color combo that I'm drawn to lately.  I just love this turquoise and yellow combination.

She's colored with Copics and my papers are MME.  The flowers are Recollections and I got the wrinkled ribbon on Etsy.  The rhinestones, button, and twine are from my stash, and the pin is handmade by....ME!  They are my latest favorite thing.  I spent a couple of hours one night watching a movie and making pins.  Love, love, love 'em!

Challenges:

Crafty Catz  - Stripes or checks
Sketch Saturday - Sketch
7 Kids College Fund  - Make it Cute!
Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Stitching

Don't forget there is still time to enter the "YELLOWS" challenge over at the CMC Copic Challenge Group.  Color using your favorite yellow combination.  How hard is that?  Not very.  We'd love to have you join!

Thanks for stopping by today!  Enjoy the rest of your week.

Tilda with the Butterflies

I was asked to make a few more of these easel notepad cards and wanted to share with you.  This is one using another of my Tilda stamps.

Of course I have colored her using my Copics.  The papers are from Prima.  The flowers are a combination of Wild Orchid Crafts and Recollections.  The rhinestones and lace are from my LCS and I used one of my MS punches for the leaves.

Totally Tilda - Stitching
Simon Says Stamp - Sketch
Wild Orchid - Spring is in the Air

Love...

Happy Monday to you!  Today I'm sharing a card that I made for my hubby for our anniversary.  I like that it was quick and other than a bit of bling (I had to put SOMETHING in that corner), fairly manly.

Short and sweet, right?  The sentiment is from Rain Drop Echo and the wonderful papers are from Prima.  I ran each of the layers through my sewing machine.  I got the lace and rhinestones from my LCS. 

Challenges:

Totally Scrumptious - Sketch
Stampin' for the Weekend - Sparkle and shine
Wags 'n Whiskers  - Anything Goes
Stamptacular Sunday - Loaded with Layers
