Thankful Dog

Wonderful inspiration challenge today at I found this fun t-shirt Image. It made me think of this fun dog from Tim Holtz.

Colored the dog with copics. Then I grabbed my stash of scrap papers and found all these fun patterned papers that all seemed to coordinate. Mounted them on a brown CS and added a sentiment and a punched leaf.

Copics used: C0, C3, C5, C7, C9, R20, R24, R29 & R32

Super fun challenge on SCS. We went Down Under

Did the Smack & Squirt technique that Miss Susie (susie australia) refers to on her cards. I finally got it to work. Thank you Miss Susie for all your help. It finally worked. Once dry I stamped leaves over the BG. Added the DP and ribbon stamped the image and mounted. Finished off with some 3D leaves, flowers and bird.


Copics used: C0, C1, C3, R30, E31, E35 & Y 35

IC581 - It's the Oh So Beautiful Paper website. I found this wonderful SNOWFLAKE. I got this snowflake die cut just after Christmas and thought it was perfect to use from my inspiration. Die cut the snowflake and mounted. Added a sentiment on a punched ornament and added an additional snowflake and gem on the ornament.

CCC17FEB is adding people on our cards. I thought this wonderful Green Duck embellishment was perfect to add to my card. I added a gem to his ornament as well. Working on my Christmas cards for 2017 as I was way behind last year.

Birthday Love

A good friend of mine asked me for a tennis birthday card for his mom and this fun lady just needed some sun because she sure looks like she brings sunshine where ever she goes.

Stamped image colored with copics. Cut straight line down fun tennis girl and fussy cut around the leg, visor and punched out the tennis ball. Sprayed red, orange and yellow through the sun stencil and mounted the birthday girl.

Super fun challenges this week on SCS. I created this card for 4 challenges including 2 Christmas card challenges. I am hoping to get my Christmas/Holiday cards done much earlier this year so I am not scrambling at the end of the year. :) Wish me luck.

LC621 - And the Whole World Smiles

CAS412 - Freeze!

SCSCCJAN17, CCC17JAN - Getting Started on my Christmas Cards for 2017

Quilted 4 You!

Today's Featured Stamper Twila Davis aka tjdstampsalot has a fantastic gallery. I found these GEMS!

I loved the wonderful use of all the different patterned papers. It is a great way to use up some scraps as we all have them. I pulled out some of my patterned papers and most were not enough to do the long strips so I cut them down to squares. I turned mine on an angle and added my sentiment strips to the top rather than the bottom as Twila had on her cards. I finished mine off with some texture once I pieced the cards together.
