InkyPaws color challenge 185

 Today I am playing along with color challenge 185 at Inky Paws Challenge.  I chose my new Stamptember stamp set from Newtons Nook with the adorable kitty and dog that you can put on the sofa snuggling.  I was not able to purchase the coordinating dies for this set so I had to fussy cut the images.

I stamped the images using my Misti and then I colored with Copics.  

The colors were Coral, Wine Red, Denim Blue and Caramel Brown.

Thanks for looking.

Lawn Fawn Challenge 135

 Lawn Fawn Challenge 135 is Coffee, Tea or Treats

I chose the Thanks a Latte set for my images.  I stamped the mug and the teacup and colored them with copic markers.  Then I used the stitched rectangles to cut out a white panel and I used the snowflake stencil to add blue and pink snowflakes.  I stamped the scarf for the mug on Lawn Fawn patterned paper and die cut it, the whipped cream and the marshmallows.

I just received an order from Lawn Fawn today and I had the blue striped paper in it so I cut the panel the size of the card base with the largest stitched rectangle.  I did add some stickles to the teacups eyes for some sparkle.  Then I stamped the sentiment in black.

Thanks for looking.

Guest Designer on Penny Black Saturday Challenge

 I am a guest designer at Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Anything Goes or Spooky and I am so excited.  This is the first time that I have ever been a guest designer.

I chose the Spooky. The stamp set that I used is actually called Spooky.  I stamped the jack-o-lantern trio and the cat & mouse on the broom on white cardstock, colored them with copic markers and then fussy cut them out.  I used my Distress Oxide Inks and blender brushes to create the background - I did splatter it with water and was able to create the sky look that I was going for.

The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder on black cardstock and cut out with a punch.  The finished front was mounted on a black card base.

Thanks for looking.

MFT Color Challenge 198

 Playing along with a color challenge at MFT - Challenge 198

I used the Bitty Bears and the Blueprints Dienamics - both from MFT.  I colored the bears with Copic markers and I added the red to the banner by sponging the ink onto white cardstock.  The sentiment is from Christmas SELFies.  Then I stamped the little present in the darker green ink around the border.

Thanks for looking.

Lawn Fawnatics challenge 134 - monochromatic

 The new challenge at Lawn Fawnatics is #134 Monochromatic this is something new for me.  I do not create many monochromatic cards.  

I have been working with the Here we go a-waddling set so I decided to use that for this challenge and I picked the color purple.  So I used shades of purple/violet.

I also used the stitched hillside borders to create my snow.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

MFT Color Challenge 196

 Today I am playing along with a color challenge at MFT Stamps. 

I used Sittin Pretty stamp set and created a simple one layer card with some stenciling.

I colored the images with Spectrum Noir markers.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Penny Black Challenge

 I am back to play along with the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.  This time the optional element is food or drink.

I stamped the image on watercolor paper and colored with Arteza Brush pens and a water brush.  I found some fun patterned paper in my stash to finish off the card.

I also have a couple of other cards that I made in the past week.  One was just playing with watercolor background and the other was for my son's birthday.

Thanks for looking!
