Fa La La Latte

Hi Crafty Friends,
Today I'm sharing a card I designed for two crafty challenges:
Jo's Scrap Shack - Anything Goes #270 and Sketch Saturday.

I thought this sentiment from Jaded Blossom's Java Time set was perfect for this cute image, Java Fox digi from Craftin Desert Divas.  I colored the image using Copic markers.  Eeeek!  I had the dreaded "blop" while coloring but I think I saved it OK LOL.  I hate when that happens.

So excited to add another Christmas card to my stash.

My Time to Craft #384 ~ One layer

Hi Crafty Friends, For our challenge at My Time to Craft we're asking that you use just one layer.  Wow!  that's a tough one for someone who loves mats and layers (ME.) So, I started looking through some of my stamps and found this cutie from Stampendous that I have never used.

I colored the image using Copics after stamping and masking so that I could add the brick wall. The bricks and ribbon are from the Doodled Frames set by Craftin Desert Divas.  I added the scribbled frame using a Copic liner pen.  The sentiment is from a Crafter's Companion set.   This was a good challenge for me.  I really want to do more using just stamps to create the card art. I hope you'll join in our challenge. Just follow the link above.

Just Pigcause

Hi Crafty Friends, Today's project is for the Always Fun Challenge #14, Anything Goes. My daughter just moved to Louisiana and I wanted to make her a special card because I know she is missing the family right now.  Aly graduated from the University of Arkansas and then coached softball there for 5 years.  She is a true Razorback (even though she's living in Tiger country) so I always try to find or create things with piggies.  This adorable stamp and sentiment is from Craftin Desert Diva's Just Pigcause stamp set.

My patterned papers are Authentique and Bo Bunny Double Dots.  The edges were cut using a Jaded Blossom Border Die 2.  I colored the image using Copic markers. Follow the Always Fun link above to join in our weekly challenge.
