Friday Coloring Challenge _ The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Hope you've had a good week and you have fun plans for this last weekend before Christmas!  It's going to be a busy one here, but I am hoping for a little down time after the weekend.  I am here now with my DT post for this week's Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "color inspiration".  You don't have to match the colors exactly, but we want to be able to recognize the overall palette on your project.  You can use any coloring medium you'd like, but you must still have a hand-colored image somewhere on your project.

Here is the color inspiration photo, courtesy of Design Seeds:

Here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Cherry Cobbler and the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Christmas 6x6 pad.  The sweet image is Happy Christmas Days from Ppinkydolls Art.  I have colored it with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I didn't add any extra embellishments because I needed one more flat Christmas card for mailing.

Here is a close-up of the colored image:

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Friday Coloring Challenge and check out the wonderful creations from my teammies, Penny, Laine and Kathi.  We hope you will play along this week!  For the month of December, we are sponsored by Ppinkydolls Art.  The lucky winner will receive 3 digis of their choice from the Ppinkydolls Art Etsy shop.

Sketch Saturday #340

Good morning!  Happy Saturday!  Hope your weekend is off to a great start!  Mine, not so much.  I've been having a lot of computer issues, so I am hoping I can get this post up this time.  I am here with my DT post for this week's Sketch Saturday challenge.  This week, we are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp, who are offering the lucky winner a $25 GC to the Simon Says Stamp store.

Here is this week's sketch, designed by Debra:

Here is my card:

 

I decided to flip the sketch.  My card base and mats are SU Cherry Cobbler and the patterned papers are from the Fancy Pants Merry Little Christmas 6x6 pad.  The sweet image is Christmas Gift from Ppinkydolls Art.  I colored it with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  Some wide striped ribbon and a little gift sticker finished my card.
