Wild Rose from Beccy's Place

Our sponsor this month over at the Progressive Freebie Challenge is Beccy's Place. You will find some really nice clear stamps as well as digital stamps to choose from. Our image is called Wild Rose.

I used a Sizzix card die, Circle/Scallops & Bow as a base using Dots & Stripes Winter Echo Park Paper. The image was colored using PrismaColor colored pencils and die cut with a stitched circle. Some Nuvo Crystal Drops in yellow were added to the centers of the flowers. The bow comes from Really Reasonable Ribbon, Pastel Sheer w/Satin center, and the sentiment is from Ranger Letter It.

Thanks so much for dropping by. And, a special thanks if you left me a message!

Beautiful Birdhouse on Kraft

Our sponsor this month is PolkaDoodles. I selected Beautiful Birdhouse for the optional twist of One Word this week over at  Twisted Thursday.

The image was colored with Prismacolor colored pencils on GinaK Kraft paper.
I added some clear gel pen over the hearts and some Nuvo Crystal Drops in yellow for the centers of the flowers. The embossed white paper is popped up, and The Layered Hello is from Paper Smooches with the red topped using Nuvo Crystal Drops in clear. A few enamel dots and tiny red bird finished the card.

Kitty in a Cup

Our sponsor this month is My Creative Scoop. I selected this kitty in a cup for the Anything Goes over at  Twisted Thursday.

I colored the image with Prismacolor colored pencils (and made him to look like my own cat, Charlie), die cut the circle for the image and made a circle card base. The sentiment comes from Newton's Nook, Newton Loves Coffee.

Ice Cream Sundae

I always love an "anything goes" challenge, which Little Miss Muffet has going on right now. I just love this Ice Cream Sundae digital image because, well, I love ice cream (and, it is only $1.00 right now)!

Little Miss Muffet

I used Copic markers to color the image, popped up on several oval dies, added  Nuvo Crystal Drops, and a ribbon/bow from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Thanks for your visit. I do love reading your comments.

My card was "spotlighted" at the Little Miss Muffet challenge on January 25, 2017! Thank you!

Jiggling Doggie Card

Our sponsor this month is My Creative Scoop. I selected this cute pup for the Tic, Tack, Toe twist over at  Twisted Thursday.

My row was
1. Thinking of you (sentiment)
2. Dry embossing (folder)
3. Brads (hearts)

I colored the doggie with Prismacolor colored pencils, cut him with my Scan n Cut, then popped him up using a jiggler from Art Impressions. The background paper is a Darice embossing folder that I swiped with Distress Inks. The sentiment is from a set called Smoooches from Paper Smooches.

Bugaboo Birthday Penguin Cupcake

Bugaboo, Catch the Bug, has a bingo board challenge that started today as part of their birthday celebration. I have been itching to color up this adorable Birthday Penguin Cupcake image. I selected the middle row of Cupcake/Bugaboo Image/Bold Colors.

Primary colors always means bold to me. I did need to add a bit of pink though because frosting that is too bold kind of scares me, LOL!

I cut out a side step card and used some Photoplay Party Box papers. I decided to add more balloons, so I used Poppy Stamps Celebration balloons. The frame was die cut with Snowflake Stitched Frames from Penny Black.

Copic Colors Used

The sentiment, white heat embossed and popped up is from Elizabeth Craft Designs General Sentiments. Lots of Nuvo Clear Shimmer Pen was added for some fun.

This happens to be day two of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge as well. So take a look at the fun going on there as well.

 Thank you so much for your visit. I enjoy reading each comment.

Hues in Blues with Magnolias

Power Poppy has a challenge on their blog to use Hues in Blues.

I stamped this pretty flower branch from the Planning for Magnolias set with Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks. Then I used Prismacolor colored pencils to color the image. I used the same ink around the stitched edge and adhered it to a piece of navy blue cardstock on top of a white card base. The sentiment, from the same set, was stamped and heat embossed in silver. I added a clear and silver ribbon/bow and a few silver dots to complete the card.

This is day three of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge as well. So take a look at the fun going on there as well.
