Inky Paws Challenge #58

Time again for another challenge over at Inky Paws Challenge.  This week I decided to put away all my  cat stamps and try a dog stamp for a change.  The challenge this week is a sketch challenge. 
Image may contain: text 
I pulled out my stamp set called "Fetching Friendships".   I love this set because it reminds me of my sister's chocolate lab. 
The sentiments I used on the orange strip were from the stamp set "Boo Crew".  I never get tired of this stamp set.

Funny story with the background paper.  A good friend of mine just laughed when she saw pussy willow paper and thought she would never use it so she gave it to me.  Guess who is getting this card?  Yep, you know it, that same friend.

Time again for another PIP Challenge.   Today's challenge is sponsored by Fred She Said
They have such adorable images.  How can you not love these adorable images.  And so much fun because you can make them any size you want.  For my card today I chose to use the image "Dancing Penguins". 

I colored the image with my copic markers and then put it to a sketch.  

Have you tried digital images?  If not, please do because there are such adorable images out there and such fun to color.

Thanks for stopping by.

Bugaboo Challenge

I have been doing the Falliday Challenges on Splitcoast Stampers this week.  What does that mean you say?  Well I have made 30 cards and done 10 tutorials so I have been quite busy this week. 

One of the challenges was to make a snarky Christmas card.  Well I really didn't have any stamps that were snarky so I decided to go digital.  I went to Bugaboo stamps because her stamps just make me smile.  I chose - Gertrude Tinsel in a Tangle.  I am a real fan of digital stamps and love Bugaboo Stamps. 
I noticed that they were having a challenge over at Bugaboo stamps so I decided to give it a whirl.  I am entering this card in the October Bingo Challenge.  For this challenge you must use the bingo board below.  I went with Gem (Black inside of snowflake), Players Choice (Snowflake) and 3 Layers (OK I had 4 so overachiever)



Thanks for Bugaboo for a great challenge.

PIP Challenge #1741




Sponsored by Di's Digis

Today I have a fun card that I made for the PIP Challenge this week.  Di's Digis has the most adorable Christmas images.  If you are a fan of digital images or want to give them a try, please go to her store because you will be amazed at the adorable images.

For my card today I chose Penguins Fishy Friend.  Since my husband is a fisherman I tend to like any image with fish in it.  I printed the image off on Neenah Classic Crest paper and then colored the image with my copic markers.  I have decided that I really like to color penguins.  They are so much fun.

Thanks for stopping by.  Join us at PIP Challenges with your creation because as always "Anything Goes".

Crafters of Faith

Today I am posting a card I made for a group I am in called Crafters of Faith.  The challenge this month is "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10 NIV" selected by Susan.  We were to make a card with a quilt, tapestry or artwork of sorts.



I love to quilt and had this die from Papertrey Ink and decided it would be perfect for my challenge.  The sentiment is also from Papertrey Ink.  The papers I used were from Simple Stories called Domestic Bliss. 


Thanks for stopping by.
