natural-hello.jpg  G’morning :)…..  It’s a two-fer morning!  First, I really love this morning’s Sketch Challenge on SCS!  The sketch is right up my alley.. lots of layers, and of course, I added a couple more just for good measure.

Last night I was watching a show on Nickelodeon with the boys.  The girl on the show was wearing a shirt with these colors and it was soooo cool!   I get inspired in the strangest ways, sometimes.  

So, without further ado.. here are the deets on this one:

Stamps:  Natural Beauty by SU!, Floral BG (SU!) and Essential Sentiments by MFT (www.mftstamps.com)

Colors: Wild Wasabi, GP White, Regal Rose, Purely Pomegranate

Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, Regal Rose, Copics

Accessories: white brads, white organdy ribbon, circle punches, scissors, swiss dots EF, ticket corner punch, dimensionals

                                                     A Dirty Challenge

youre-a-good-egg.jpg  It was a dirty challenge, but someone(s) had to do it!   This month’s Dirty Dozen/Dirty Dozen Alumni challenge was to make a springy card (without cuttlebug, nesties, etc), using the stamp(s) designed by other Dirty Dozen/Alumni - OR- use a card from a DD/DDA gallery to inspire a card. 

Well, I did BOTH!  I used this adorable bedazzled egg by Whipper Snapper Designs (Anna Wight-Designer) AND I used this sketch by WAXYO (Meg Shumaker) as inspiration for my sketch.   I stretched Meg’s sketch a bit to make it into a tall card measuring 8 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches (fits into a #10 envelope).

Here’s the deets on this one:

Stamps:  Whipper Snapper Designs (Anna Wight-Designer),  Eggstra Special Easter (chick) by My Favorite Things’, Dotted bg by Impress, Inc.

Colors:  Wild Wasabi, GP White, Summer Sun, Pumpkin Pie

Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, Pumpkin Pie, Copics, White Gel pen

Accessories: checkered ribbon, stickles, circle punches, dimensionals

TFL!~ and have a blessed day!

Love the challenge card - classic Toy! The DD challenge card is really cute too. I love how you use the punched out circle for the sentiment.
