Sketch Saturday #330

Good morning!  Happy Saturday!  Hope your weekend is off to a great start!  Mine would have been if I didn't have posting issues and wake up to find my Sketch Saturday post not live!  More than likely operator-error.  Anyway, I am here now with my DT post for the Sketch Saturday Challenge.  It is actually my DT week, so I have chosen the sponsor and created the sketch.  Our sponsor is Little Miss Muffet Stamps, who are offering a $6 GC to the Little Miss Muffet Stamps shop.

Here is my sketch for you:

 

And here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Basic Black and the patterned papers are Halloween ones from my stash.  The fun image is Luna Bitterfrost Vampires Rock by Pollycraft for Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I colored her up with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  A couple of glittery spider webs in the corners and a 3D acetate birdcage sticker finished my card.

Friday Coloring Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  I hope you've had a good week and you have fun plans for the upcoming weekend!  My first order of business this weekend is to clean up my craft room!  Right now, it looks like a cyclone hit in there!  It's certainly not conducive to creativity at the moment.  Before embarking on that onerous task, I am here to share my DT card for this week's Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "hats", in honor of Make A Hat Day, which is on Monday. 

Here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Bravo Burgundy and the patterned papers are from the Prima Melody 6x6 pad.  The cute image is Sunday Afternoon from Karleigh Sue Digis.  She was generously shared as a freebie during the Kit and Clowder 3,000 Member Party, but she is now available in the Karleigh Sue Digis Etsy shop.  I colored her up with my Copics in rich fall colors.  Some pretty lace, a triple-loop seam binding bow and a vintage tree charm finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

 

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Friday Coloring Challenge and check out the fantastic creations from the rest of the DT!  We have some exciting news, too!  We have a new member of our DT!  The lovely Laine Webb has just joined us, starting with this challenge.  Be sure to pop by and welcome her!    We hope you will play along with us!  The September Challenges are being sponsored by Vera Lane Studios, who are offering a mystery digi set to one lucky participant in this month's challenges.  I can tell you it is one of the digi set in the Vera Lane Studios Etsy shop, so check it out!

Friday Coloring Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  It will be happy for me if you see this post on time!  I had to go out of town for a couple of days, so my next two posts will be pre-scheduled.  I won't have much internet access until I'm back home, but I will try to check in occasionally.  Today, I am sharing my DT post for this week's Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is a color inspiration.  You don't have to match the colors exactly, but we want to recognize the color palette on your creation.  You can now use any coloring medium you'd like for the challenge, but you must still have a colored image as part of your project.

Here is the color inspiration, courtesy of Design Seeds:

Here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Rose Red and the patterned papers are from the Webster's Pages Plum Seed collection.  The adorable image is Jacque With Lily from Art by Mi Ran.  It was generously shared as a freebie when the Facebook group reached 600 members.  I printed it on MiC Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added some White Gel Pen and Ice White Pearl Pen accents.  The banner was cut with the Party Banner die from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Two wooden butterflies and a few Wild Orchid Crafts flowers finished my card.

 

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 fantastic creations from my teammies, Dawn, Penny and Kathi.  We hope you will play along this week!  For the month of August, we are sponsored by Bombshell Stamps, who are offering the lucky winner one digi set of their choice from the Bombshell Stamps digi collection.

Dandelion Sprite

Here is my card:

 

My card base and mats are SU Gumball Green and the patterned papers are from the Basic Grey Origins 6x6 pad.  I printed the cutie Dandelion Sprite on MiC Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added some fine glitter to the dandelion "fluff".  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  A bunch of yellow gems from my stash finished my card.
