Alice Fell

Well, I didn't make you wait very long for the second image that Sandra Caldwell drew from my suggestion. Check yesterday's post if you do not know what I am talking about.  BabyCakesDND is the place to go to see her fantastic digital images, or take a look at her Facebook fan group.

I'm a real "Alice" fan, and I wanted a drawing of Alice actually falling. This image from Sandra, Alice Fell, was colored with Copics. I cut out the image with the Creative Basics Fancy Rectangles set from C.C Designs (on sale right now), backed it with gingham paper from My Favorite Things, double colored the card and clock to pop them. The ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon, and the sentiment came from an ephemera pack from Echo Park.

Knot a Giraffe

Sandra Caldwell of BabyCakesDND had a contest on Facebook. She asked for suggestions on what she should draw next, and if she selected two of yours, she would draw them both and one would be given as a prize. I was so excited when two of mine were chosen. This is the first one that I have colored.

The image, Knot a Giraffe, was colored with Copics. He is popped over a die cut that was from Queen & Co., but I can't find it any longer to link. The sentiment was one is just made up and printed off of my computer. Fun and quirky wedding card, LOL!

Want to know what else I selected and Sandra drew? Well, you will just have to wait until I have time to color that one up.

Allie in Fishbowl

A new month and a new sponsor over at Twisted Thursday. Our sponsor is Patties Creations, and I am using Allie in Fishbowl.

I colored the image using my Copics and then went over everything using my PrismaColor colored pencils. The background is a stencil from Altenew called Warp Speed with Nuvo mousse in gold. The edges were brushed with Distress Oxide Inks then sprayed with Sparkle Shimmer Spritz. The sentiment is from Hero Arts, stamped with Teresa Collins Glitz Gold and embossed with clear embossing powder. The little white die cuts were just sitting on my desk, so I'm not sure where they came from, LOL!

Christmas in July

The July challenge for Paper Smooches is Christmas in July. And, Through the Craftroom Door, has a pretty sketch, so I combined the challenges.

The image, colored with Copics, is from The Chubby Chum Pals and I used the matching dies and popped it on the card. The fun ric rac was cut from the Borders 3 die set. The stitched flags are from C.C Designs, and the papers all came from Gina K Designs. The sentiment came from the Chubby Chum Pals set, and I added three jingle bell brads from my stash.

Wishes for a Happy Birthday from Dragons Lair Designs

Another month, another fun stamp from Dragon's Lair Designs progressive challenge over on Facebook.

I used a Sizzix Step-up die to create the card base. I'm sure the sentiment isn't new, but it's what came to mind and so I just printed it out.

Thanks for visiting. I truly enjoy reading comments if you have the time to leave one :)

Double Trouble - Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenges

This card was created for my daughter-in-law's birthday.

The image is from BabyCakesDND, For you thanks,  and was colored with Copics.

Challenge #4 over at Double Trouble has a three/two/one recipe, and an added challenge to use the sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Thing Three asked us to use wet or dry embossing.

I used three colors, two words, and one image. I followed the sketch given, and I dry embossed the background folder and wet embossed the sentiment.  Think I covered all the bases on this one, LOL!

Copic Colors Used

I also added a few Nuvo Crystal drops in the selected three colors of the challenge.

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you will give both of these challenges a look!

Oh my, I had no idea that tulips came in so many beautiful colors and it wasn't easy to settle on this color combo. I was really in the mood for some dimension, so I kind of maybe went a bit crazy with this one. After coloring with Copics, I cut out the layered Hello (Paper Smooches) from the colored image and two more times from orange foam. I also cut out three of the flowers separately to pop those, and felt the need to add a dimensional butterfly. Then, I added the topper Hello from the same set cut from orange foam as well.
