Creating! Challenge Your Stash

 Today is reveal day for our Challenge your Stash group on Splitcoaststampers.  Maggie is our hostess this month and her challenge was to use an image of a fairy or something that flies.

I'm sorry to say that I don't know the name of this stamp.  When Vintage in KC (store I worked at) closed, Renee' gave me a bunch of unmounted Lilli of the Valley Ltd stamp.  I'm sure they are old so probably retired.  They have alot of adorable stamps on Lilli of the Valley website.  Just couldn't find this one.

I colored the image with my copic markers to match the paper The papers I used were from Echo Park "Have Faith"  I found this sentiment in a package called Rainbow Sentiments by Pinkfresh.  Thought it was the perfect sentiment for the image.  I added some stickles to the wings.

Thanks for stopping by to see my fun card for this month.

BYSH Cardmakers: Christmas in July

Well today is the last day for the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July.  I have gotten several Christmas cards done because of this Linky Party.  Have you been checking out some of the fantastic submissions?  There are some great Christmas card ideas on the site.

                                                     

For my last card I am continuing on with the Christmas Critters by Avery Elle stamp set.  

I used the adorable penguins image and colored them with my copic markers.  I then fussy cut the images out and pop dotted them to the center of the card.  The paper is used is Mary Christmas from Hobby Lobby.  I found a star sticker in my stash and added it to the top of the tree.

Thanks to BYSH Cardmakers for the inspiration this week and helping me get a jump start on my Christmas cards.

PIP Challenge #2429

 The sponsor this week for Pammies Inky  Pinkies Challenge #2429 is SheepSki Designs.  

For my card today I decided to use the adorable Sunflower Border digital image.  I love sunflowers probably because they are the Kansas State Flower.

I colored the image with my copic markers and then used the sentiment from It's Your Day by Taylored Expressions.

BYSH Cardmakers: Christmas in July

 I have decided to get started on my Christmas cards and I felt there was no better way that to be inspired by the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July Party.  It is always such a fun week to see all the Christmas cards that are made for this challenge.

For my card today I am using some images from Avery Elle Christmas Critters stamp set.

I colored the image with my copic markers and then used a circle die to cut the image out.  I added a little bit of Crystal Stickles on the at the give it a litte extra.

Thanks to BYSHC for having this Christmas in July party every year.  I hope to get alot of cards done this week.

Creative Crew

 Today is post day for our Creative Crew challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  July 15th is National Get Out of the Doghouse Day so in celebration, our challenge is to make cards with any pet and/or a doghouse on them.

For my card I found an old rubber stamp of a dog house that had been taken off the wood block so I'm not really sure who made this stamp set.  The dog, bowl, and bone are  from "Fetching Friendship" by Newton's Nook Designs.  I colored all the images with my copic markers and then fussy cut them out and placed them in front of the dog house.  The papers I used were from My Dog by Echo Park.

PIP Challenge #2427

 I am a little late in posting my card for Challenge #2427 for Pammies Inky Pinkies Challenges.  Such a nice relaxing weekend that I forgot about my post for today.  This weeks challenge is sponsored by Polkadoodles.

                                           

I was thinking Christmas in July when I made my card for this weeks challenge.  I ready somewhere that Christmas is only 24 weeks away.  We all know the weeks have a way of going fast.

For my card today I decided to use the adorable digital image Frostella & Ginger Gift.

I hope to see you over at PIP Challenges this week.  It is always fun to see what people come up with.
