Colorful Birthday

I was really inspired with the color challenge from the SNR Stamping Boutique group. The challenge was to use all the primary and secondary colors. I used the Stamping Boutique theater and actress Audrey. I colored the theater with watercolor pencils and added a rainbow and tree for the "set." I colored Audrey with Copics and Promarkers. I made a sentiment using stickers and added buttons for accents.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Stamping Boutique at SNR Back to Skool Challenge #1

2. Cupcake Craft Challenge #106 - Let's Get Digital

Happy Scrapping!

Three Cards

I'm getting closer to 60 followers and a special addition to my blog candy! I was surprised by the response to today's freebie. Thanks everyone, I'm glad you find them as useful as I do. Tomorrow's freebie is accompanying circle sentiments.

I had a great night at the Digi Day party at The Latte Lounge - I won an image in the contest and won two contests. I'm the featured member this week, too! I made this card using the image I won in the contest. I love this image - If the Shoe Fits... I used papers from DCWV's Summer Stack and a sentiment from my Everyday Sentiments - Circles (these will be tomorrow's freebie).

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Truly Scrumptious #39 - sketch + optional brads, buttons and bows (I got buttons!)

2. Stampin' for the Weekend #45 - Anything Goes

3. Stamp with Fun #73 - Card for a girl (can you get more girly than kittens in shoes?)

I Did It Creations is the sponsor this month at Rakscraps. This card is made with a freebie from Robyn's Fetish. I had a lot of fun with this gnome. I used Creative Memories stickers for something to sit on. I colored him with my colored pencils. I distressed the image using Tim Holtz Distress Ink tea dye and then added gold glitter glue. I used a sentiment from my Everyday Sentiments - available as a freebie today. The main background paper is Prima and the others are from my stash.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges - Simon Says Stamp and Show - Tim Holtz Inspired.

Peanut also liked Robyn's image. Her current favorite coloring medium is Crayola Washable Markers. She added several buttons and sparkly things, including her favorite - the sharp leaf (holly leaf). She chose blue glitter, which she spread out all by herself. I helped her cut the paper, but she chose the plain red background.

Thanks for hanging in with me on this long post. Hope you have a great evening.

Two Stamping Boutique Projects

I finished two projects for The Latte Lounge Digi Day Challenges tonight. I've entered three of the four challenges, so I think I'm doing pretty good : )

The first challenges was to create a birthday card. Peanut turns three next month, so I worked on her card. She wanted to be in the craft room as I was finishing it, so she helped put on the glue dots. She was very concerned about the bunny on the cake! I colored The Stamping Boutique image with watercolor pencils and added glitter glue. The sentiment is from my Everyday Sentiments - Circles and I added a "3" sticker. I'd also like to enter this card in the Cupcake Challenge #104 - 2 ribbons, 2 blooms, and 2 papers. It's Cupcake Challenge's Second Birthday and they're having a blog hop in addition to the challenge. I can't resist a good blog hop!

The other Latte Lounge challenge for tonight was to use wrapping paper. I used Tooth Fairy Cynthia from The Stamping Boutique that I won in the July Challenge from Latte Lounge. I actually got the stamp in the mail, which is really fun! I wrapped a jewelry sized gift box and added the image and sentiment (made from stickers).

Happy Scrapping!

Two cards for a Fun Weekend

(2nd post) I've had a fun weekend. There's a Beach Party at the I Did It Creations Forum and yesterday was Digi Day at The Latte Lounge. It's not too late to participate in both. The challenges at I Did It Creations Forum are open until August 27th. The challenges at The Latte Lounge are open until Wednesday.

This is my first card for the Beach Party. I used my Summer Bear image and papers from my Summer Paper Pack. They're both on sale at Stitchy Bear and I Did It Creations Crafting Boutique. I colored the image with colored pencils. I added prima flowers to complete the card.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. The Pink Elephant #79 - Summer Fun

2. Simon Says Challenge - Summertime Blues

My second card is for Challenge #2 - color challenge at The Latte Lounge. I used Swinging Cynthia from The Stamping Boutique. I won this image at the July Digi Day. I colored the image with colored pencils and added glitter to the clouds. I used papers from DCWV Sweet Stack and a Cardmaking and Papercraft freebie. I added some Prima flowers to finish the card.
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Digital Tuesday #71 - butterflies or lace

2. Fab 'n Funky #35 - Use your favorite colors - I think you can tell from looking at my posts that I LOVE pink. I really like it paired with green (or just about any color)!
