Woohooo! - {SSSC244}

Hello everyone!  It's time for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.  Karen has another fun sketch for all of us to create with and we hope you'll play along.

 When I first saw Karen's sketch for this week I was stumped, I thought how the heck am I going to come up with something fun using this lopsided sketch, lol.  Then I started pulling out stamp sets until I came across the Paper Smooches Chubby Chums set and knew what I wanted to create.  I already had pieces of the Doodlebug Happy Harvest designer paper laying all over my desk from the last card I made so I used some of that along with the cute owl image from the Chubby Chums set.  A little Copic marker for coloring my owl image and some Glossy Accents for his eyes, then I added some foam tape under him and he was set to go.

So Thankful for You

Happy Friday!  Today I have a fall card that I created for a few challenges using the fun Lawn Fawn stamp set So Thankful.

I'm sad that fall is coming to an end, it seemed so short this year, but on the bright side I'm looking forward to Christmas.  For my card I started out with a chocolate chip card base, then added some Doodlebug designer paper panels from their Happy Harvest pack.  I die cut and colored the cute pumpkins and leaves and after stamping my sentiment, I arranged my pumpkins and popped the small front one up with foam tape.  For some added detail I tied on some twine and added a brown button.  I was inspired to create this card by two challenges, one the Lawnscaping Challenge #93 and the Retro Sketches Challenge #139.

Thanks for stopping by!

Holiday Blessings - {The Challenge #18}

 Hello crafty friends!  The Challenge #18 is up and has a fun new sketch and color pallet for all of us to create with.  We hope you'll join the design team and play along.

 For my card I used the Papertrey Ink stamp sets Made of Snow Mini and Holiday Wishes to create a Christmas card.  I started out with an espresso card base with a white panel, then added some red and white striped My Minds Eye designer paper.  Down the center I added a piece of red cardstock with a Basic Bookmark 2 die cut out of kraft, a white oval with my fun snowman, a little bit of red bakers twine and a glittery snowflake with button to finish it off.
