Whimsie Doodles - Summer Challenge

One of my favorite companies is Whimsie Doodles.  I wasn't sure about digital stamps when they first came out, but I fell in love with Whimsie Doodles.  I could easy buy all of their stamps. 

I haven't been really good about posting regularly so I have been trying to enter more challenges as a way to motivate myself to post more.  Whimsie Doodles' challenges are always the first one I check. 

Plus I sat down today and organized all of my digital stamps, so hopefully I will be able to find what I want to play with easier.  Which will mean I will have more time to stamp.

The challenge this month is 'Summer'.  Dig You Leah was just perfect for this.  I used one of Silhouette America's backgrounds (shovel pail background) as a back drop.  I really hope everyone likes what I have come up with.

I am also going to use the card for a challenge over at Crafty Cats Weekly Challenge.  Their theme this week as 'It's Child Play'.  I thought this would qualify as childs play.

Supplies:  Copic Markers; B00, B21, B23, E00, E31, E35, E50, E53, G00, G02, G07, R20, R22, R29, Y17, YR02, YR04, YR61

Silhouette Weekly Shape Challenge

The challenge this week over at Silhouette America was to make some with a 3D image.  One of the examples was a picture.  I really like this idea, so I went looking for a frame that I would like in my kitchen.  I have green and red apples in my kitchen.  I put one of each on my project.  I really liked how it came out.

I hope you like the project.

Patriotic Challenges

I had three more patriotic challenges I wanted to enter so I am using the same card.  The digital stamp is from Meljen's Designs.  I only made one card and then I cut the pieces for three more and I am going to put them in a ziplock so that when I want a patriotic card, all I will need to do is put them together.

The challenges are.....

     Meljen's Design - Patriotic
     Little Scrap Pieces - Stars and Stripes
     QKR Stampede - Rock the Red, White & Blue

I hope everyone had a great day.  It is rainy here so I hope some one is getting sunshine.

Supplies:  Copic Markers....B21, B24, B26, C1, E31, E33, E35, R20, R29, Y08, Y11

SVG Cuts - Luxury Handbag

I got an email from SVG Cuts today and they are having this challenge where they will give you this cutting file to make.  It is an adorable little purse.  If you make it and post it to their site, they will give you a gift card for $6.99. I just had to make one. 

I made it into an Auburn University purse for my sister-in-law.  She will just love it.  So if any of my nieces see this, don't tell your Mom.

Repeat Impressions Again - WHAT IF? Wednesday ~ Sketch Challenge J2613

I decided to go ahead and make a card out of my ATC card and I like the Repeat Impressions' sketch challenge so much that I just used it to make the card.

If you would like the supply list just check the post below.

I am off to work on dinner.  Have a great evening.


Whimsical Designs - ATC Challenge

I am working on challenges today.  I have several I want to complete.  I just finished the Whimsical ATC Challenge.   Years ago, I made lots of ATC cards.  I haven't made one in years, so this was fun.  I will probably put it on a regular size card.  If so, I will post it for you.

I had this little rabbit sitting on my craft table, so I just picked him up.

Have a great day.

Supplies:  Stamps; Hero Arts Hello, Morning Star Bunny....Copic Markers; R00, R02

Repeat Impressions - WHAT IF? Wednesday ~ Sketch Challenge J2613

It is time for another Repeat Impressions' challenge.  I just so love seeing what everyone comes up with.  It was easier to look at my stamps since I have them all organized.

This little girl is just so cute.  I have been wanting to use her for some time.  I think I might change the card around on the next one.  I am thinking a pale pink card and white ribbon.  I don't know I may leave it as is.  I may change her hair to black so it doesn't blend into the hat.

I just realized that this would qualify for the DCC73 - Monochrome challenge so I will enter it over there too.

I hope everyone is having a good week.

Supplies:  Button; Dress It Up Valentine Collection...Copic Markers; E00, E31, E35, E50, E53, RV00, RV10, RV13
