Featured Stamper 121 ---Rox71

Hello and happy Sunday! Today's featured stamper on SCS is Rox 71. Have you been to her gallery yet? Wow, lots of awesome stuff to find there. I chose to case this card because I really wanted to use this Panda bear image for a father's day card I needed. It is hard to tell by the picture, but if you look really close you can see the panda bear holding a new panda baby. The image is from the Digital Stamp Oasis.

I kept the same layout, but changed the colors. I also added a sentiment, which was computer generated and some ribbon and buttons to embellish.
Colors used are basic gray, bashful blue prints designer paper and GP white. The image was colored with copics. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today! I hope you liked the card.

Penny Black Challenge #51 --- A sketch

Hello and happy saturday! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I managed to make a card today for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Today it is a sketch challenge. You can see it here.I received this image from a swap a while ago. I am sorry, but I don't remember the name of the stamp. It is colored with prisma color pencils and baby oil and cut out with CM oval cutting system then layered on a scallop nesties oval.l. The designer paper is a retired paper from SU (spring showers). The other papers are SU's retired purely pomegranate, kiwi kiss and gp white. I embellished with a flourish (sizzix), butterflies (martha stewart punch) and some prima flowers. I also did some sewing around the edge and added stickles to the butterfly in the image. The sentiment is from SU's set "warm words".

Thanks so much for stopping by today. If you have time please visit the Digital Tuesday Challenge and play along for a chance to win some cute images from Dustin Pike.

SC220 Happy Father's day

Hello and happy Thursday to all of you!!
I made this card yesterday for the Sketch Challenge over on SCS.
The image is from the digital stamp oasis "Monkeytime". I thought it was perfect for a Father's day card. Since I don't have any father's day sentiments I made my own on the computer.Image was printed on Georgia pacific white 110lb card stock and colored with copics. I also used chocolate chip and kiwi kiss card stocks, and blue patterend by SU (retired spring showers). The striped DP is from my stash and I have no clue who the maker is. To finish the card off I added ribbon with hodgepodge hardware buckle and a couple of brads.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked the card, and please visit the Digital Tuesday Challenge blog and play along for a chance to win some of Dustin Pike's digitals.

Digital Tuesday Challenge #8......Weddings

Hello and happy Tuesday. I hope you had a great long holiday weekend. This week Emma is the hostess over at the digital tuesday challenge and since May is the perfect wedding month she chose "Weddings" for this week's theme.
I knew right away I wanted to use the Lovebird image from the digital stamp oasis.
I added just a little bit of color to the birds and also kept the leaves and branch a lighter shade.
The colors I used are whisper white and the retired color cool caribbian. I used my very last piece of cool carribian card stock. The white card front was embossed with a cuttlebug folder and white sheer ribbon was added. I used rectangle nesties to frame the image. The sentiment is from SU's old sellabration set "happy harmony". To finish the card off I added the punched out butterflies and some rhinestones.
Sorry about the picture. The white colors just made it reflect.
Hope you get to play along this week, Dustin Pike is sponsoring the challenge again, and is giving away 3 of his adorable images to one lucky winner.
