PIP Challenge #2311

 Hard to believe there are only 2 weeks of March left.  This month has sure flown by.  Literally since it seems to be always windy in the spring here in Kansas.

Today's card is for Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge #2311.  Today's challenge is being sponsored by Polkadoodles.  They have the cutest digital images and are always fun to work with.

For my card today I am using the digital image "Bunny Rabbit with Spring Carrots".  I know Easter is right around the corner so having a few Easter cards on hand will be helpful.

I printed off the image on my computer and then colored the image with my copic markers.  I used papers from Carta Bella called Flower Garden.  The dies were from Waffle flower.  The sentiment was from Stampin Up called Circle of Spring.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and check out some of the adorable images from Polkadoodles.

Creative Crew

 I have not been very good about posting on my blog lately.  Time just seems to be on fast forward.  But today is our reveal day for our creative crew bunch so I decided to post my card for this month.

Terry was our hostess this month and she decided our theme would be "Some bunny Loves You".  Perfect theme for Easter since it will be here before you know it.

Terry sent a fun kit to use for our challenge.  I decided to make a shaker card for my Easter card this month.  The egg paper is from The Paper Studio and I cut it out with an egg die that I had in my stash.  The bunnies and sentiment stamp is from Simon Says Stamp.  I colored the bunnies with my copic markers.  I added a little yellow ribbon for the bunnies to set on.  

For the inside of the card I used a few more of the bunnies and the sentiment "Some bunny loves you".  Such a fun Easter card and so quick to put together.

PIP Challenge #2309

 March is here and definitely seeing some spring flowers popping up.  I just hope this next cold snap doesn't hurt these new buds.

Todays challenge for Pammie's Inky Pinkies is being sponsored by StarStampz.  

For my card this week I made an easter card using the adorable stamp set "Puppy Rabbit".  

For the sentiment I used a Stampin Up spring wreath set.  I wanted to come up with a cute little saying for the card but it just didn't come to me.  What is that puppy thinking?  

I used Taylored Expressions mini slimline dies to make the card. 

Easter will be here before you know it so it is fun making some cards before it comes.  I hope you all have a great week and be sure and check out what the other design team members at Pammie's Inky Pinkies came up with. 

PIP Challenge #2307

 This week it sure feels like spring.  I am loving the warmer weather.  It is time for Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge #2307 which is being sponsored by Varada Sharma.  

For my card today I am using the Rose Corner digital stamp from her etsy store.  I just love florals and coloring them so I decided to have some fun with that stamp.

I printed off the image on my printer and colored the flower with my copic markers.  The Birthday sentiment is from Waffle Flower Birthday Sentiments.  What a fun birthday card to make.

Have a great week and be sure and check out the Varada Sharma etsy store and all the other fun cards made by the PIP Design team.

PIP Challenge #2305

 Happy February.  I am hoping for a warmer February this year.  I hope the cold weather is behind us and look forward to an early spring.  Today's challenge for Pammie's Inky Pinkies #2305 is being sponsored by Lawn Fawn.

I have alaways been a fan of Lawn Fawn Stamps because they are so cute and adorable and fun to color.  I pulled out an old stamp for my card today that I have always wanted to use but never got around to it.  

The stamp set I used is called Year Two.  You can also buy the matching die which makes the set quite reasonable.  I colored the image with my copic markers and then made the card.  Seems like I am always a day late in sending birthday cards to thought it would be nice to have a Belated birthday card in my stash.

I also used a scalloped circle die, circle die, Grassy Hillside die and a Memory Box pennant die.  The designer papers I used were from Echo Park Wish Upon a Star.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and be sure and join us this week for Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge.

PIP Challenge #2303

 Time for another challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenges.  For Challenge #2303 Pam is giving out a $10 gift certificate to My Favorite Things.  

I'm sure you love this company as much as I do.  Since Pam is giving out a gift certificate to My Favorite Things, I thought I would pull out one of my favorite MFT stamps called Spring Songbird.  

I colored the images with my copic markers and then used the matching dies to cut them out.  I used the TE Mini Slim Circle Window Cutting plate with the pink paper that is by Echo Park called I Love Spring.  I just love these Mini Slim Line cards.  So fun to make.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and join us over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenges.  

Dueling Darlings New Look

We are half way through January.  Not sure how that happened but since today is the 15th, that means it is time for our Dueling Darlings Duel.  After many years of keeping us on the ball, Kelly has decided to step down from this group which means Jeanette and Barb will be directing us in this fun challenge.

To start off we have a new name for our group which is the Creative Crew.  We will still post on the 15th of each month to share our cards.  There are 7 of us so we each will take a month to host.  The host will choose the theme for the month and send kits to the other group members.  It is always a surprise on the 15th what our theme will be.

For January, Jeanette and Barb teamed up for our challenge.  Barb sent us images and Jeanette sent us papers and embellishments.  

The theme for January is Snow.  Not a surprise since it is January and we see an occasional snow.  Since Barb lives up north, she seems quite a bit more that the rest of us.  The image is from Creative Vision called Snowman with Broom - large.  I had to think a but about how to use this large image but was quite pleased with how the card turned out.  The papers are from Jeanettes stash.  The striped tag is from Paper Studio which I stamped a sentiment from MFT Winter Songbird.  

Thanks to Barb and Jeanette for starting us off to a great start in 2023.  Listed below are the links to the other gals creations for the month.

PIP Challenge #2301

 Happy 2023.  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.  It sure seems like 2022 passed in a flash.  I am excited for our first challenge of 2023 for Pammies Inky Pinky Challenges.  This week is being sponsored by Gerda Steiner Designs.  

Since I have 2 kitties at home I thought it would be fun to use the stamp set "Cat In Box" for my card today.  It is a digital stamp and was pretty easy to color with my copic markers.

The papers I used for the card were from MFT Time to Celebrate 6 x 6 pad.  The balloons were made with a Stampin Up Balloon punch.  I had seen the sentiment somewhere on the internet and thought it would be perfect for the card.  I typed it up on my computer and printed it on white card stock.  

Thanks for stopping by to check out my card and a special thanks to Gerda Steiner Designs for sponsoring us this week.
