My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge #695

  I'm joining the current MFT sketch featuring the adorable Woof Pack stamp set.  The image was colored with Tombow Markers on water color paper.  Memory Box designer papers are from my scrap pile. The dog house die, bone and bowl are retired MFT.  I remembered the string of lights were in an old Taylored Expressions beach die set.  They worked perfectly!

Di's Digi Design Challenge - Scraps & Stash

  I'm joining the current challenge at Di's Digi with her sweet new digital image called Ellie and Balloon.  The image was colored with alcohol markers and die cut.  It was layered onto several scrap pieces of designer paper from the Pebbles Garden Party paper pad. I have made it a personal challenge to use more designer paper and scraps with my cards.  I rarely through away scraps, but keep them in a small envelope with the paper pad.  You never know when that "just right" paper will be needed!

The Paper Shelter Challenge #591 Pets

  This week's challenge theme at The Paper Shelter is pets.  I took advantage of their current 50% off Flash Sale and bought the adorable Comfy at Home digital set.   The Paper Shelter offers both black & white image, as well as, pre-colored images with each set.  I enjoy the convenience and fabulous color choices of the pre-colored images.   For my card, I printed the pre-colored image onto Core'dinations white canvas cardstock and die cut.  The image was layered onto designer paper from Basic Grey Hopscotch paper pad.   I've been treasuring my supply of Basic Grey and decided they should be used!! :)  A die cut sentiment, pearls and twine complete the card.

HMFC#412 Anything Goes + Option Use Some Design Paper

I'm playing along with the current challenge at House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge .  They also offer an option with their Anything Goes theme.  This week we were asked to use some design paper. I recently purchased Berry Good cling rubber set from the House Mouse Designs Spring Collection.  The image was stamped onto X-Press It card stock with VersaFine Clair ink.  I colored and die cut a portion of the full image for my card. The image was colored with Copic Markers and Prismacolor pencils.  It was layered onto designer paper from Basic Grey Indie Bloom paper pad (sadly no longer available).  A few enamel dots and a gingham bow finish the card.
