Coffee Lovers Include Giraffes!

Last day of the Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge, and the first day of the Coffee Lovers Blog hop. Just had to color up this fun giraffe from Imagine That!
I used Prismacolor colored pencils and a bit of Distress Inks for edging.

Hope you'll all join in on the fun!

Hogs and Kisses Christmas Tag

This week we end our sponsor showcase over at The Outlawz, Twisted Thursday. This week, the optional twist is Anything Goes. I selected Imagine That this week and the fun little Hogs and Kisses image. Who couldn't love getting a Christmas tag with a tree full of pigs?

I used my Chameleon colored pencils over Kraft that was printed with a light gray tag under the image which was in white. The sentiment is from a set that came with a magazine from Practical Publishing quite some time ago. A Christmas ribbon and lots of fun Nuvo Crystal Drops finished off this tag.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have enjoyed this fun month full of such variety with so many sponsors that we are truly grateful for.

As always, if you have the time to leave a comment, I really enjoy reading them!

Little-Gobbler on Plaid

As we continue our sponsor showcase over at The Outlawz, Twisted Thursday, the sponsor I selected is Mindy from My Creative Scoop. The image is Little-Gobbler. Mindy gives away lots of fun images if you join her creative library on her blog.
This week's optional twist is to use plaid. I colored the turkey then made a mask and stamped over it with a plaid stamp and Distress Inks. After cutting it out, I added it to a piece of plaid paper from Simple Stories, Vintage Halloween. The sentiment is from Celebrate Autumn, Echo Park. The ribbon and enamel dots are from my stash.

Spinner Card

Fun spinner card that I created myself. Here are three pictures showing some of the different things that will show up in the circle:
Had to rip this apart more than once, LOL! The stamps are from Waffle Flower, Cookie Time, as is the sentiment. Some Nuvo drops were added for some extra fun.

I created this for the Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenges #20, Interactive Cards!

Three Funny Elves on Kraft

This month we are having a sponsor showcase over at The Outlawz, Twisted Thursday. This week, the optional twist is to use Kraft. Three Funny Elves is the image I selected to use from MMedel Illustrations

I used my Chameleon colored pencils over Kraft that was printed with a light gray tag under the image which was in white. Interesting how this turned out. I added some clear Nuvo Crystal drops over the jingle bells on the elves' hats and a real one (brad) on the top of the tag.  A bit of ribbon with a Merry Christmas sentiment and a simple green bow at the top finished the tag.

Cold Weather Up Ahead!

Paper Smooches' prompt for the November challenge is to get inspiration from a mood board, and Paper Ala Mode challenge on The Outlawz has a prompt of "Cold Weather". Now, the trick was how to combine the two. I had to get a tad creative to find a way as the mood board seemed very fall, and cold winter implies snow (to me anyway). Finally, I decided to actually USE the mood board as a sketch, LOL. Took me forever to create it in a word document, but after I printed it, I used my Copics to color the stamped images. The images came from a PS set called Warm Hearts and the little Hello was from a very tiny PS gift set.
The Copics used were added to the circles at the bottom of the mood board, and I added a bit of white gel pen and some Nuvo drops. A festive red bow was the final embellishment to calling this card done!
