Twisted Thursdays at The Outlawz January 2024

 

Hello friends and followers!

 I am delighted to announce The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenges for 2024 begin now!

 The challenges are always ANYTHING GOES with a fun optional twist! 

The twist this month is CELEBRATIONS! 

I chose a birthday card using my new to me Cricut Explore Air 2 along with a foiling kit. This is my first project using my new supplies. I had to use my Cricut marker attachment first and then went over it with foil that made all the difference in the look of my card.

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. 

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 

https://www.facebook.com/SheepSkiDesigns/

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.

Hello again my friends and followers!

Isn’t this a beautiful image!  This is the second of three images I won at the Patties Creations Challenges.

 You can find a link to her challenges if you scroll down on my side bar. I used this image  in a previous card combined with a Polkadoodles image but this time I wanted it to stand alone. I had this fantastic nautical ribbon in my stash that I knew would be perfect for this card. The image is colored using Copic markers and the sentiment is from MHK Designs.

My Besties Bunny Slippers n Coffee

 

Hello and welcome to my blog! 

Today I am sharing this little cutie from Sheri Baldy!

 I chose this image to use mainly because of the hair rollers and bunny slippers to go with a crochet bunny I made a few years ago with bunny slippers and rollers. The bunny has tootsie rolls as rollers, so it is the perfect gift ot give during Easter. At the time I am writing this post I have not made the bunny I plan on giving with this card to my daughter. I hope to get started on it very soon! Thank you to Sheri for sharing her beautiful digital art images with us!

Dragons Adventure

 

Thank you to Alyce with Kit and Clowder for offering such wonderful freebies to practice our coloring techniques. I ordered these huge greetings cards so I had to really work at filling in the spaces. I used the Martha Stewart edge punch for the scalloped edges and a die that I cut in half for each corner, the die is from a set from Spellbinders called Damask Motifs I had this wide ribbon it was just long enough to wrap around the card. I colored the image with my Copic Markers and attempted to follow the dragon scale coloring by looking off a photo. I imagine if I actually watch the Kit and Clowder class next time it will be so much better! :)
