Alcohol Markers Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Hope you've had a good week and you have fun plans for the weekend! Sorry I've been MIA again this week.  I've been working behind the scenes on some upcoming DT cards, but to be honest, I'm not feeling much like designing and coloring just yet.  I'm sure I will get back in the swing of things soon, but right now, I have a bunch of things to take care of first.  On a more upbeat note, I am here this morning to share my DT card for this week's Alcohol Marker Challenge on The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "travel".  Perfect for this time of year when lots of people take fun vacations with their families!  Interpret the theme any way you'd like, but you must have some coloring with alcohol markers on your project.

Here is my card:

My card base, mats and ornate frame are all SU Island Indigo and the two patterned papers are from the Webster's Pages Palm Beach Petite Papers pack.  The fun image is Pack Light from Saturated Canary. You can find her in Krista's store here.  I printed her on MiC Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  Some ribbon, a few pearls and three felt flowers finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Super Dad

Hi again!  Are you sick of me yet?  I never dreamed I would have time to create another card this week, but I had some contractors in and I used the down time to do some coloring.  I made a card for a bunch of the Father's Day/masculine challenges out there right now.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Marina Mist and my patterned papers are from the Bo Bunny Surprise 6x6 pad.  The fun image is Super Hero by Kenny K. for Whimsy Stamps.  I was lucky enough to have won this stamp awhile back.  I stamped it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I cut out the image and the black mat with my Cameo.  I also cut the sentiment with my Cameo using a cut file from the Silhouette store.  A few red gems from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

La Moustache

Good morning!  Happy Sunday!  Hope you are enjoying a nice weekend!   It's been cold here and we even had a few snow flurries yesterday!  Not at all what you would expect for AL in March!  I'll be glad when it warms up again.  Anyway, it's been pretty busy around here, but I wanted to pop in quickly to share a card I made with a new set by Paulette at Create With TLC called The 'Stache Be With You.   It has some fun images and sentiments that are perfect for your more masculine creations.

Here is my card:

The card base and mats are SU Soft Suede and the patterned papers are from the Authentique Original 6x6 pad.  The image and sentiment are both from the new set from Create With TLC.  I colored the vintage image of the man with my Copics.  I added a vintage clock face in the background.  I cut it with my Cameo using a cut file from Sheridan shared here.  I didn't add any more embellishments to keep with my clean, masculine theme.

Thanks for stopping by!  I have a bunch of stuff to do this morning, but I hope to be by to visit your blogs a little later this afternoon.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:

Ho, Ho ...Whoa!

Hi there!  Happy Tuesday!  Hope your week is off to a great start!  I keeping single-mindedly focused on getting my Christmas cards done in between dealing with all the other craziness in my world.  Time is running out to get them mailed and I'm panicking just a little!  To those of you already done, no laughing!  Anyway, I'm here to post one more Christmas card I made to add to my stash.

Here it is:

My card base and mats are SU Gumball Green and the papers are from the Bo Bunny Mistletoe 6x6 pad.  My fun image is Ho, Ho, Whoa! from Mo's Digital Pencil.  I'm sure this is a scene that's been played out in lots of homes this season!  I printed him on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored him with my Copics. I added lots of Red, Green and Silver Stickles for some sparkle.  I added Glossy Accents to the candy canes and over the glittered ornaments for even more shine.  His hat has Crystal Snow glitter on the brim and pom pom.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It was from the recent Winter Club.   A couple of glittery stockings and a bunch of red gems from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Thanks for stopping by!  I really hope to find time to visit your blogs when I get back later this afternoon.

Little Miss Muffet Challenge - Tag or Gift

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  Hope you've had a good week so far!  Only one more day until the start of the weekend!  I know I'm ready, but I am getting a bit ahead of myself.  Thursday means it's time for my DT post for Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  We have a new challenge starting today.  The theme this time is "tags or gifts".  How perfect is the theme for this time of year?  I don't know about you, but I am starting to stress a little about how close the Christmas holidays are and how few cards and gifts I have done!

I chose to do a tag for one of my Christmas gifts:

My tag base and mats are GKD Red Hot and the patterned paper is from the DCWV Winter Holiday 12x12 pad.  I love all the festive patterns in this pad and all the sparkle!  My adorable image is Swings 'n Slides Happy Mail from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. I printed it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added lots of sparkly accents with Stickles and Crystal Snow glitter.  The sentiment is a recent freebie from Paulette at Create With TLC.  I added a large snowflake cut out of turquoise glitter paper with a Marianne Design die.  Some lime green wrinkled ribbon finished off my tag.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog and check out the fabulous creations from the rest of the DT and our Guest Designer, Shelly.  We hope you will be inspired to play along!  You have until Tuesday, December 10 to enter your project.  If you use a Little Miss Muffet stamp, you can play along with "anything goes" as your theme.

Little Miss Muffet Challenge - Textiles

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  Hope you've had a good week!  Sorry I've been MIA again, but I have a family member who's been ill and there has not been any extra time for crafting or blogging.  Still, I couldn't miss my DT post for the new Little Miss Muffet Challenge! Yes, we have a new challenge starting this week and the theme is "textiles" - use fabric, lace, yarn, etc. on your creation.  There are so many possibilities for this one!

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Blue Bayou and the patterned paper is from the K & Co. Elizabeth Brownd Christmas 12x12 pad.  I love that these papers can create a scene all on their own.  For my textiles, I cut and stitched a scrap of white felt over the snow in the scene to add dimension.  The cute winter image is Saffron from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  She was a freebie last year and I think she was my first LMM stamp!  I fell in love with all of the cute images at LMM and the rest is history!  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Stardust and Gun Metal Stickles to her skirt and coat buttons, White Opal Liquid Pearls to the pom poms on her scarf, and some white glitter to her hat brim and muff.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is part of the Enjoy The Snow set in Paulette's store here.  A few Jolee's sparkly snowflake stickers finished my card.

Here is a close-up of Saffron:

Hi again!  I know.  First I don't post for days, then I don't stop posting, right?  I had a few projects in the works and managed to finish one up so I came back to share it.  It is for Mo's DP2 Challenge #155 (anything goes with a Mo's), Anything Goes Challenge #77 (animals), Through The Craftroom Door Challenge #38 (anything goes) and Papertake Weekly #83 (anything goes).

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Bermuda Bay and the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Six By Six A Mother's Love pad.  You can tell how long this has been on my desk because I was using the sketch from the Anything Goes Challenge #76, which I missed.  Anyway, my adorable Mo's image is Did You Hear.  You can find it in Mo's store here.  I printed it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored with my Copics.  I added a few polka dots to her top and socks with my Sharpie White Paint Pen.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  A polka dot bow and a few gems from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of Bella and Bronte:
