Simple card with Sheepski Designs

 


Hello my friends and followers! Today I am sharing the final card of 3 using this image from Sheepski Designs. My first intention was to have 3 squares all the same on one card using the image, however as you can see I cut my square a bit offset, so I scratched the idea and went with three individual cards. I love the design paper, I have had it since like 2007, it has a beautiful sheen to the floral pattern that really popped with the silver lining in the ribbon. You can find Sheepski images at

Happy Birthday to you

 


Hello again friends and followers!
 Today I am sharing this little cutie I won from the Creative Color Challenge!  She is the second image of three images I won. For my card I actually cased a card I found on Pinterest, and by the time I posted this, I lost the card. :( My apologies to the original designer of this layout. 

For my card I scissor cut my large background cloud, used my Spellbinders die for the smaller clouds and colored her up using Copic Markers.

Bear to spare a Candy Cane?

 


Hey there again! 

Today I am sharing this simple card I made using an image I colored up about 10 years ago. I wish I knew who the artist was at this moment, but as soon as I figure it out I will update this posting. I have had these images in my stash for some time and finally decided to get them on a card. I believe I received this image at Crafters Digital Art Center or CDAC. I loved that site, miss it actually. I liked that many digi artists had groups on the site and offered freebies right there. There were challenges and tutorials, it was kind of like The Outlawz Challenges but a bit more, in my opinion. :) Don’t get me wrong I am the go to advocate for The Outlawz Challenges. I left for a few years and missed it terribly and now I vow to never leave until it is no more. That is, at least for as long as I am divulging in a paper craft hobby. :) I am currently the Design Team Leader for Twisted Thursdays as well as a Designer on Tuesdays Color challenges. I ran the Monday Greetings challenges for a few years when I joined. The Outlawz is a wonderful family of talented paper crafters. We have a new challenge every day of the week, a Progressive Freebie challenge, sketch challenges on Wednesdays, just so much fun and so many ideas to inspire you.

Western themed with Pattie’s Creations

 


Hello friends and followers! Today I am sharing this little cutie from Patties Creations. She is the third of three images I won in the challenges at Patties Creations Challenges. When you scroll down you can find a link to the challenges on  the right side bar. I grew up reading my mothers Annie Oakley books so I tried to make her my version of Annie. I added 1/2 of the Outlawz Badge Silhouette to giver her a tall dark handsome stranger in the back ground. I colored her up using my Copic markers, the plaid paper is from Fun Stampers Journey. I have been trying to practice sunsets using my Copic Markers and I think this one turned out pretty good!

Birthday Celebration

 


Hello again my friends and followers! 
Today I am sharing this birthday card i made using the frame die from the December small die of the month club at Spellbinders it is called Sketched Florals & Frame and this beautiful image is from 



For my card I colored her up with Copic Markers practicing on coloring skies and translucent balloons. I hand cut the little banners at the top right. The frame was actually messed up in two places so by slanting my image I was able to use the frame to cover up the spots without much notice.

 I colored my images and background scene using Copic Markers.  The sentiment is from a set of stamps I have had a while from Inky Antics and it is called Balloon Buddies. I picked it up while visiting Branson, MO back in 2012! They had a wonderful Scrapbook store there! The flag dies I used for my sentiments are in a set from Spellbinders called the Designer Series Totally You. It has stamps and dies in the set. The banner with the sequins hanging from the twine I cut with scissors before realizing I had the banner die in this set I mentioned.
