Clear Dollar Stamps CIC 55

Hello - welcome to Clear Dollar Stamps Clearly Inspired Challenge #55! The challenge this time is Some Like It HOT. This theme was open to interpretation, so I used colors from the warm side of the color wheel! I used a new digi from our designer Lisa Lara called Scoops. 

I printed my digi onto printed paper (by Jilli Bean) and then did some paper piecing. The large flag die is from Lil' Inkers. I hope you will join us in this challenge! 

Check the Clearly Inspired blog for all the details! Thanks for stopping today! 

Cornish Heritage Farms Challenge # 04!

Hello! 
Todays challenge was to make a birthday card or tag.

 I chose to make a card. 

 I used the digital image Birthday Dog #390.


Isn't he just a cute image! I colored him with colored pencils.
Background paper is some I picked up at Archivers,
 I don't remember who's paper it is.

Doodle Pantry July Release!!

Hello!! It's hard to believe it's July already!!!! 

Laurie at Doodle Pantry has some 

super cute new digis being released this month!!

I thought I'd share my card using the digi Bottle Rocket Ants. 

Just in time for the 4th of July!

Those silly ants are always up to something!

I made this card a 5 x 7 size. 

I distressed the white paper with distress ink to 

make it match the background paper. 

After I colored the image with colored pencils,

 I added more distress ink. 

I'll be back this week with more from Doodle Pantry!

Thanks for stopping today!

Sew Grateful for you!

In honor of the quickly approaching 4th of July holiday - 

I thought I'd share this card I made using the 

digital image from Clear Dollar Stamps called Sew Grateful!

I colored the image with colored pencil.

 The large flag and shaped die are from Lil' Inkers.

 I hope you all have a safe and happy Independence Day holiday!

See you soon!

Operation Write Home

This week, Doodle Pantry is sponsoring

Operation Write Home's sketch challenge!

For my card I used the DP digi USA Birdie.

 One of my favorite characters that Laurie has!

Birdie is fully decked out to honor our troops!

I printed Birdie onto a natural white paper and 

then colored him with colored pencils.

I hope you will check out 

Operation Write Home's blog!

See you soon!
