Sketch Saturday #331

Good morning!  Happy Saturday!  Hope your weekend is off to a great start!  Ours started with some much needed rain, but it is clearing up, so hoping for a nice weekend after all.  Right now, I am here to share my DT card for this week's Sketch Saturday Challenge.  We are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp who is offering a generous $25 GC to spend in the Simon Says Stamp store.

Here is this week's sketch by Alex:

 

 

And here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Pool Party and the patterned paper is from the October Afternoon Cakewalk 8x8 pad.  The sweet image is Lunar Deity from Art by MiRan.  I colored her with my Copics and added Star Dust Stickles to the little stars.  I punched two larger stars from Aqua glitter paper and added them as my only embellishment.  Nice and simple this time!

Here is a close-up of the colored image:

Friday Coloring Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Hope you had a good week and you have fun plans for the weekend!  I am really tired this morning.  We were woken by a weather alert call at 3:30 AM.   There were severe thunderstorms in the area.  We got lots or rain and thunder and lightning, but all is well today, thankfully.  It's supposed to rain all day today, too, but we need the rain, so no complaints from me.  Anyway, I am here now with my DT card for this week's Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz.  The theme this week is "Alice in Wonderland" in honor of Mad Hatter Day, which is on Monday.  You can use any coloring medium you'd like, but your project must have a hand-colored image related to Alice in Wonderland.

Here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Baja Breeze and the patterned paper is from the Fancy Pants A Taste of Spring collection.  Too bad I covered up all the cute little tea sets on the paper!  The image is Alice & White Rabbit from Make it Crafty.  I colored it with my Copics, of course.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I added a few playing cards that I cut with my Cameo.  A striped ribbon bow and a little clock charm finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the colored image:

Friday Coloring Challenge - The Outlawz

Hi there!  I' back, albeit late, with my DT post for the Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz site.  Normally, I would post tomorrow morning, but I've got a couple of special posts coming up tomorrow, so I am posting this tonight.  Our theme this week is "color inspiration".  You don't have to match the colors exactly, but we want to be able to recognize the color palette on your project.  You may use any coloring medium you'd like as long as you have a hand-colored image.

Here is the color inspiration, courtesy of Design Seeds:

Here is my card based on the colors:

 

My card base and mats are SU Pool Party and the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Indie Chic "Nutmeg" 6x6 pad. The fun images are from the Best Friends digi set from Vera Lane Studios.  I merged the two girls together and colored them with my Copics.  The sentiment is from the same set.  I printed it out and cut it up before placing it.  A few opaque gems finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the colored image:

Here is my take on the sketch:

My card base and mats are SU Pool Party and the patterned papers are from the Kaisercraft Fine & Sunny 6.5x6.5 pad.  The fun image is Hanging Around by Tiddly Inks.  I used the digi version, but the same set is also available as clear stamps (called Hang in There).  I printed her on MiC Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I colored in a cloudy sky with my Copics, too.  The sentiment is from the digi set.  I cut out a couple of clouds from white felt.  A few chipboard flowers finished my card.
