PIP Challenge #2639

 I am so excited for the challenge this week over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenges because the sponsor is one of my favorite companies.  If you saw all the stamps I owned, you would see that a large portion of them are Newtons Nook.  

I love fall and sure hope with all the rain we are having that we will have a colorful fall.  I love making fall cards and made this for my sister in honor of her 2 dogs.   Just an extra one for her because she loves to dog sit friends and neighbors dogs.  

The stamp set I used is Newton's Nook "Pumpkin Tails".  The paper is used is Newtons Nook Autumn Paper.  The background die is the A2 Card Layout Die by Newtons Nook.  I loved coloring these images with my copic markers. 

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and enter Pammie's Inky Pinkies challenges this week.  

Challenge Your Stash

 I am a day early for our Challenge Your Stash group on Splitcoaststampers but tomorrow I will have a post for Pammie's Inky Pinkies.  I was able to choose the challenge this month and I looked at the calendar and special events and saw that September 29 is Celebrate National Coffee Day.  I do love my coffee so I had fun making this card.

This card just screams fall.  I love all the pumpkin flavored coffees so I had fun with this one.  The stamp set I used is Newtons Nook Autumn Coffee and I also used the Newtons Nook Postage Stamp Layout Die.   I just love how these postage stamp dies make cute little frames for each of the images.

Thanks for stopping by.  I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Creative Crew

 It's time again for another challenge for our Creative Crew group on Splitcoaststampers.   Jeanette was our hostess this month and I have to say I was a little stumped on her challenge.  The theme she came up with is "Career Day".  I didn't really have any stamps that I thought would work for this challenge but I came across  a Unity Stamp and thought it would work.

So my career day would be for a Coffee Barista.  This stamp I used is Planner Gal Stay Cozy by Unity Stamps.  I stamped the image off and colored it with my copic markers.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set.  After coloring the image I cut it out using the MFT Stitched Mini Scallop Rectangle Die.  I used a Close to My Heart Oval Die of the Sentiment.  The paper I used is Coffee and Friends by Echo Park.  I also had some ephemera to match so I used the pennant and cup at the bottom from that stash.

So thanks Jeanette for making us put our thinking caps on.  I always love the challenges you come up with.

Be sure and check out the rest of the team and see what they came up with for this challenge.

PIP Challenge #2637

 This week's challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenges is being sponsored by Polkadoodles which is one of my favorite digital image company.

                                      

They have some adorable fall images and I decided I had to use one.  I love foxes so any time I can incorporate a fox in my card, I will do it.

I decided to go with the image "Pumpkin Autumn Fall Fox".  I colored the image with my copic markers and then fussy cut the image out.  I found a fence die that I had.  I think possible it was one I purchased from Papertrey Ink years ago.  I love using things that have been in my stash for a long time.  The sentiment is from Sunny Studio called "Autumn Greeting".  I found some scraps of paper that I used for the background.

I hope you check out all the fun images over at Polkadoodles and that you join our challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies.

PIP Challenge #2635

 Today's challenge over at Pammies Inky Pinkies Challenges is being sponsored by Patties Creations.  

                  

                                                         

Since this is the 5th Saturday of the month we also have a special challenge and the theme is "Apples". 

I found this old image that Patties Creations created and decided to use it for my card.  I printed it off and colored it with my copic markers.  The background paper is Welcome Autumn by Carta Bella.  The apples are from Lawn Fawn "Build A Barrel".  The sentiment is by Taylored Expressions "Tag Team Thanks".

I look forward to seeing all those creations using the theme "Apples".

Challenge Your Stash

 This month is a fun challenge for us on our "Challenge Your Stash" group on Splitcoaststampers.  Jeanette is our hostess this month and she decided that August is the only month of the year without a significant holiday so she challenged us to make up a crazy holiday and create a card for it.  

This is my card.  My crazy holiday is "Celebrate Snail Mail".  Who doesn't like to get a card in the mail?  I sure do so I decided to create a holiday around it.  The image I am using is "Cozy Wishes" from Simon Says Stamps.  I stamped off the image and colored it with my copic markers.  I then fussy cut the image out.  The background paper is from Good Cheer by October Afternoon.  I used a Gina Marie Floral Design for the background.  I used white embossing powder on the sentiment and then fussy cut it out.

I hope you like my holiday.  I can't wait to see what the rest of the team comes up with.

PIP Challenge #2633

 This weeks challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenges is being sponsored by RAM Stamps.

They have so many adorable digital stamps.  I had a hard time deciding which digital image to use.

I finally decided to use the adorable Birthday Bird image.  I printed off the image and then colored it with my copic markers.  I used a scalloped circle die to cut the image out.  The papers I used are from different scraps that I had in my stash.  I used a heart punch to cut out the blue hearrt.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and check out all the cute images at RAM Stamps.
