Mojo123 and CAS51 Free Hugs

This card was made for 2 challenges: Monday's Mojo 123 and SCS's Clean and Simple 51 to use designer paper. Mojo 123 was to do a square or round card.

I put just a touch of color on Fluffles iwth Copic markers. The ribbon and bow are Offray. Clean and Simple!

This card was made for Verve's 4th card in the January series of home decor of foyers. I used a stamp by Inkadinkado, artist Kathy Davis. I inked the stamp with Marvy Le Plume II and stamped it, cut it out with Nestabilities circles. The dp paper is Basic Grey's Lily Kate. The green cs is from my stash, as is the main bg soft beige.

SASSC49

I've been wanting to use this paper from Basic Grey's Porcelain. It is so soft and pretty. The pearls are Kaiser, the ribbon Offray. I colored the Stampin'Up image with Copics. I think the sentiment is also SU, but I'm not certain (my daughter's stash again). I used Nestabilities circles to cut out the image and mat and popped it out on foam squares. I used Nesties large labels for the sentiment. The cs is from my stash.

Thanks a bunch for lookin'!

CCEE1003

Well, I finally made a card I can be truly happy about! I made this card for CCEE's sketch challenge. I love these colors together. The papers are as follows: Stampin'Up, DCWV, K&Co, and unknown. I colored the Sugar Nellie image with Copics and sponged the background with chalk. I cut the image out with Nestabilities rectangles. The flowers are PrimaFlowers and the pearls are Kaiser.

So am I getting better? Hope so!

Penny Black #84 and Sketch Saturday #86

This card is for two challenges: Penny Black #84 to use blue, cream and gold, and Saturday's Sketch Challenge #86.

You can never go wrong with Hedgie. He is my favorite PB character. I colored with Copics. I'm not sure where the sentiment is from. The papers are SU, the pearls are Kaiser latte... my favorite from them! The dp is BG. A simle card, but I think it's pretty cute :)

House Mouse #61 and Friday Sketchers #85

This little bunny is soaking it all in. I colored the image with Copics. The main part of the card is scored in a grid, but it's really hard to tell. The dp is from K & Co, and it's kinda on a grid as well. The ribbon is from Home and More Classic Collection. I like wide ribbon, but sometimes it's hard to use. The blue border is from DCWV. It's reverse cut with Nestabilities, and I rounded the corners. The rhinestones are from Elements.

Hopefully you can tell the sketch. I turned the whole sketch to a portrit view.

Mojo 122 and SCS CAS50

This card was made using the sketch for this week's Mojo Monday challenge #122 and the color teal for SCS's CAS50. I think it got a little more involved than a CAS card, but oh well!

The paper is BG's Figgy Pudding that I got from Hobby Lobby a few months ago. The flowers are Prima Flowers with white pearls from Kaiser. The larger pearls on the right side are from Michael's. The ribbon is Go With the Grain. I cut out and popped out one of the snowmen and put it on the lower left. It's hard to see it. I used red rhinestones from Elements on that snowman's buttons. I'm not sure what the sentiment is from. I used ink around the sentiment and cut it out with Nestabilities ovals. Thanks a bunch for lookin'!

FTTC50

Hi, and happy Hump Day! It's almost over :). This card is for Flourishes Challenge #50, to make a scene using stamps. I used Flourishes Swing Set to create this happy swing. I love to swing even at my age, and really loved it as a child. I colored the stamped images with Copics, and used chalk on the grass, sky, sun, and faux tree. The girl and grass and flowers were cut out as a group and then popped out on foam dots to add dimintion. (I never know if I spell that word right!) Very simple yet fun. I had to think about it for a couple days before I could stamp the image and construct the card. Hope you like it!
