Spring and Fall Beauties

It's Wednesday! So time for another challenge at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge Blog where challenges are always Anything Goes and prizes are awarded from one or more sponsors.  Stop by the blog to check it out! The sponsor this week is Leanne's World and my DT card features a pretty digi named “Bambi.” I had fun creating a monochromatic color scheme that includes bling because of metallic fuchsia lipstick paper from my stash. I loved finding a Beccy’s Place sentiment that fits the blowing a kiss theme.  I printed off a few extra hearts from the inside sentiment, colored, fussy-cut, and attached them to the front of the card. 

 

Supplies: 

·   Digi- LeAnnes World (Bambi)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Front Sentiment- “Hugs & Kisses Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Keeping it Simple)

·   Inside  sentiment- Eureka Digital Stamp (Happy Valentine’s Day)

·   Assorted cardstock, background papers and scrap of pink ribbon from my stash

·   Stickles- Star Dust (on the hearts)

Besties Challenge- August Anything Goes

Outlawz Challenge- Twisted Thursday- Anything Goes

This month Ching-Chou Kuik’s challenge also has an Autumn theme, so I looked through my collection of Ching-Chou’s wonderful artwork and picked this one named “Keep In Faith” for my card. I loved coloring this beauty with my Spectrum Noir markers and trusty white gel pen. Adhered atop an upcycled calendar page and torn cardstock and decorated with paper scraps and enamel dots the final product is as colorful as the season it honors!   

(BTW- I noted the source of the sentiment as unknown because I cannot locate it on my laptop where I currently have nearly 10,000 digital images. Most are within the 445 folders of digi sets so I cannot just pull them up by title. I know that this sentiment is hidden in one of those sets as I did print it off to make this card. And… I need to find it again because I really like it. So, when I do, I'll add the source here. In the meantime, if any of you recognize this sentiment and can tell me it's source, please let me know.)

I found the source! This sentiment “Sending Warm Thoughts and Sunshine Your Way…” is from a We are 3 set of Digital Sentiments named Special Wishes.
