Alcohol Markers Challenge - The Outlawz

Hi again!  I'm back, as promised, with my DT card for this week's Alcohol Markers Challenge at The Outlawz site.  Being the last Friday of the month, our theme is "anything goes" with the option to add a Christmas twist.  The twist is completely optional.  The only requirement is to have coloring with alcohol markers (any brand) on your project.

Here is my card:

I went with the Christmas twist and kept the layout "flat" for better mailing.  Yes, I'm learning - lol! My card base and mats are SU Lucky Limeade and the patterned papers are from the Recollections Festivus 6x6 pad.  The fun image is digi16709 Need More Elves from QKR Stampede.  I printed it on MiC Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added a bunch of Waterfall, Red and Green Stickles to the gifts and star on the tree and Glossy Accents to Santa's spectacles.

Here is a close-up of the image:

In The Hole

Hi again!  I'm back with a super quick post to share a card I made for a challenge that is ending any minute now, so I'll be brief.  My card is for the QKR Stampede Challenge #44 and the theme is "summer fun". I wanted to use some cute digis that I won a couple of challenges ago.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Real Red and the bright patterned papers are from the Bo Bunny Surprise 6x6 pad.  I merged two digis for my cute golf scene.  I used digi15309 Golfing Bear and digi15317 Golf Flag from QKR Stampede.  I printed the merged image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added a cloudy sky and the grass for the golf green.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I always like this one for my golfing friends.  An aqua ribbon and some flowers with pearl centers finished my card.

All Tied Up

Hi there!  Happy Wednesday!  Hope you've had a good week so far!  I've been pretty busy, but I finally feel as if I'm getting back into a normal routine.  Before I head out for the morning, I'm popping by to share a card I made for a few challenges I like to do when I have time.

Here it is:

My card base and mats are SU Bordering Blue and the patterned papers are from the Basic Grey Oxford collection.  The cute image is digi11304 All Tied Up from QKR Stampede.  It was one of the images I chose when I won a challenge they were sponsoring.  I printed him on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored him with my Copics.  The sentiment is digi11203 Tied Up also from QKR Stampede.  A few buttons and pearls from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Season of Love

Good morning!  Happy Monday!  Hope you had a nice weekend and your week is off to a great start.!  I'm still scrambling, so my post will be short this morning.  I'm popping in to share a card I made to add to my Christmas card stash.  I'm nearing the end finally, but I am still way behind on the mailing part.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are GKD Lipstick Red and the patterned papers are from the Recollections Bright Christmas 6x6 pad.  The adorable image is a digi called Snowman Couple from QKR Stampede.  It was one of the stamps I won in a challenge recently.  I printed the cute couple on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored them with my Copics.  I added lots of Stickles for extra sparkle and some Polar White Flower Soft for the snow.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It was part of the recent Winter Club.  Some chevron ribbon and a dimensional ornament sticker finished my card.

Cozy Christmas

Hello!  Happy Wednesday!  Can you believe I've got another post already?  That's two so far this week!  I am happy to be finding a little time to finish up card projects on my desk!  Definitely not an easy feat these days!  Anyway, I'm here with a quick post to share another Christmas card I made to add to my stash.  It is for a bunch of challenges that all had a similar theme - snow or snowmen.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are GKD Red Hot and the patterned papers are from the Recollections Bright Christmas 6x6 pad.  My cute image is Snowman Scene from QKR Stampede.  I won it when they were sponsoring a blog hop I participated in recently.  I printed it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added Liquid Pearls to the falling snow, Crystal Snow to the pom pom and brim of his hat, Red and Aqua Stickles to the ornaments on the tree and Gun Metal Stickles to his buttons.  The sentiment is from Bird's Cards. It was a freebie I picked up last year.  I added red gingham ribbon from my stash, some aqua and white fabric trim (Webster's Pages) and a few snowflakes punched from glitter paper to finish my card.

Here is a close-up of the snowman scene:

Thanks for stopping by!  I'll be back early tomorrow with my Little Miss Muffet DT card.
