Color Dare #674 (due 10/17)

This is my Design Team project for Color Dare #674 and using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #651.  




The colors on the graphic remind me of Easter... the other day when cleaning out my digital folders came across this adorable bunny digital and knew it was perfect for these colors and also for the sketch focal point.  

Stamped two of these images... fussy-cut one full image and the other only the cupcake frosting, the head and bow for layering and dimension. Using copic sketch brush pens the pieces were colored and layered with 3D thin foam tape and glued on edges for rounding.  

Went through a lot of my patterned papers and nothing matched up with these colors, close but always seemed to have some yellow... and with Color Dare graphic it doesn't allow any additional colors... that's a no, no.  

So off to my stencil stash... came across a  metal stencil which was purchased for 50 cents at a garage sale and had only been used a couple times.  Again perfect for a playful background for my bunny. Cut a panel of pink cardstock, brushed alternating the three colors, bordered with the purple cardstock and adhered to card base.  

Cut the smaller panel also using pink cardstock, adhered my bunny image, bordered with purple cardstock and adhered direct to my playful background.  I used a more generic pun sentiment so that it can be used for any occasion. Again using the pink cardstock, bordered with purple, stamped sentiment using Memento London Fog in keeping with the pastel look.  

Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #674 and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

Challenge #202 3-2-1 Recipe "Shades of Fall" - Gobble Til You Wobble

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #202 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "Shades of Fall" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #681) which starts on Oct 14th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for inspiration and to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. 



The sketch inspired me to copycat the leaves and blended background with at least three shades of Fall colors and for texture added the 1-ingredient a dry-embossed element "crackle" folder to my blended background. 

Also decided to use a turkey image as my focal point in place of the large hexagon. Stamped turkey direct on blended background, masked and stamped a pumpkin on each side of the turkey to satisfy 2-images and Twisted Sister's optional twist.  

Stamped three more images of the turkey and adhered full turkey over the stamped image and colored. Colored and fussy-cut the body of the second image, slit open the wings and adhered body with glue and 3D thin foam tape on tip of wings. Colored and fussy-cut the head of the third image and adhered to body with glue and used 3D foam tape for head. Pumpkins to each side of turkey were colored.  

Three more pumpkins stamped/masked direct on blended background and then stamped, colored, fussy-cut two more images... one adhered direct to background and one adhered with 3D thin foam tape.  To keep with the sketch's larger hexagon I hand-drew a look-a-like pumpkin, colored, fussy-cut and adhered with 3D thin foam tape. 

When I decided on a fun pun sentiment "Gobble til you wobble" my card needed a pie... wanted a pumpkin pie but turkey said apple was fine.  Stamped pie, colored, fussy-cut and placed under the wings of the turkey with some 3D foam in the middle and glued on sides for rounding the pie.  For the open space to left of turkey I added the fun pun and randomly stamped a few itty-bitty flower stamps around the pumpkin patch.    

It sounded like a lot of work; but I really enjoy working with dimension, layering and rounding the images.  Hope you'all enjoy my festive Fall card.  

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our 3-2-1 Recipe "Shades of Fall" and play along with our optional twist and dare while earning additional chances to our random draw.

Hello Friend - Color Dare #504 "Four Square" Color Board

This is my Design Team card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare "Four Square" Color Board and using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #480. This was a fun card to create... The July 4th Holiday weekend was spent at the cabin with my daughter and we did a little scrapping. I always enjoy creating with her and think I get a card done faster because of sharing ideas... plus she has some pretty cute stamp sets and of course her Copics are always traveling with her.  





The Playful Pups stamps were all adorable but picked the bassett hounddog with the long ears, and was lucky that neutrals were included in the color challenge for my pup Ralph (Lisa named him).  Stamped three images of Ralph, colored and fussy-cut each where required for layering and dimension.  

All the other accessories were included in this stamp set and chose the rug and doggy bed for Ralph to settle into.  Ralph wanted a colorful plaid bed with the rug under it for his comfort and his toys.  He chose colors closest to Sapphire, Evergreen and Sundance for his plaid... so out came my Copics and a plaid was born. Ralph liked his plaid bed so much he insisted on a tie to match and the dish of food for his friend.  

I didn't have any patterned paper with me so I chose cardstock closest to the colors and glued the diagonal panels to the card base. In Lisa's supplies she had some stitched die frames, chose the stitched scallop a perfect fit for Ralph. Still needed something... so why not add a strip of the same plaid to cover the two diagonal panels... perfect.    Sentiment added from another stamp set and done.

Double Trouble Challenge #68 "Tall Tale" with optional twist "Tall Tail"

Attached is my Design Team's tall and skinny (turned landscape) card for Double Trouble Challenge #68 "Tall Tale" and also included the optional twist "Tall Tail" to include something with a tail.  I am also submitting this card to one of our previous partners "ColorMyHeart Color Dare #414"     


My new gnome stamp sets were perfect for a tall skinny card.  Stamped all stamps from both sets "Spooky Gnomes" and "Gnome Matter" and put my Brother ScanNCut to use and colored all with Copic Sketch Brush pens, in a variety of many colors and then placed on one of the design papers from "Got Candy" Halloween paperpack using 3D thin foam tape on several of the items for dimension.  The grass was die cut using a green design paper from my stash.  

On the inside of the card I decorated the bottom and right-hand border from stamps not used the front of the card.  











Please go to Double Trouble for the detail of the challenge and enjoy the Things and Sneetches inspiration for this fun Challenge. 
This challenge is open from Monday, October 5th through October 18th.  

If you haven't done a tall and skinny card please let it be a first time at our Challenge... so much fun to try to fill the space. Hope to see you there.  

All tall and skinny cards can be mailed in a business envelope.

Pick of the Patch - Double Trouble (Put on Your Mask)

My DT card for Double Trouble Challenge #39 "Put on Your Mask" with Twisted Sister's "Something Found in a Pumpkin Patch" and if it's an Autumn/Halloween theme share with Kat Scrappiness. 




I remembered an old stamp in my stash (from 2009) that was perfect for "something found in a pumpkin patch" and masking.  The pumpkin stamp had two pumpkins in the image, so to create a row of pumpkins I masked another behind the first image to lengthen the pumpkin patch.  Then I masked the scarecrow behind the pumpkin patch to hide the bottom of the scarecrow.
