BellarifIC FRIDAY March 26




This weeks Bellariffic challenge was to use the sketch provided.
I used my new stamp from SB called Hearty plant for LuLu. I also sponged the edges for the first time using liquid chalk. Might have over done it a little.
Didn't change the sketch at all because i liked the simplicity of this.

I'm thinking I could use this for a "thinking of you" or "sympathy" card.

Unscripted Sketches #47 and Christmas Card Challenge #16





I haven't been able to participate in Sparkle's Christmas Crad challenge too much this year, but I made my self I promise that I will get some cards done. This week Sparkle used the sketch from Unscripted Sketches So I made this card and will post for both challenges.
I used a purple paint chip I got at Home Depot and an image from Stampingbella. The ribbon I just received in a wish rak just this week.
Enjoy!

Paper piecing with MFT




I don't do paper piecing to much but thought it work work well with this image from MFT.
Below is one I colored with Copics. Just love pink and green together!

Teen cards




A friend had asked me to make a few birthday cards for her teen nieces and nephews. I had downloaded these digi images a while back and haven't even used them yet. I think she is going to love them! Her request was for a cards for two teen girls, 14 and 17, a teen boy that plays videos and a teen boy that plays guitar. I'm sure he plays electric guitar, but this will work I'm sure. I added glossy accent to each card. On the guitar front, the eyes, lipstick, hair, flowers and bracelets. The images are mostly from Mo's digital pencil.

I hope she likes them!!

2010 Christmas Card Challenge Week #11










This week Sparkle gave us a sketch to use for our Christmas cards.
I made two cards this week, now just have to get better at taking the photos and publishing. I used some digi images from All that Scraps for these cards and mixed and matched some of the paper between the two cards.

Bellarific Friday Color Challenge February 19





































This weeks challenge over at Stampingbella is a color challenge.
The colors are shown and the green color looked different from different computers.
At first I thought it was a light mint green, then it looked like a light torquiose. I had a hard time trying to make up my mind, so I left the green to minimum in the card.
The ribbon I used didn't really show up correctly in the picture.
