myasperations 2-4-22

It’s Friday and time for the Colour Crazy Challenge. This challenge is also an “Anything Goes” but it adds a requirement; the creation needs to include coloring in “any colouring medium you like, onto any project you like, and in any colours you like.” I’ve never outgrown my love for coloring… which is why making cards is stress therapy for me!! 
This week's sponsor is All Dressed Up and my DT card features a sweet digi from All Dressed Up Stamps named Birthday Girl. I printed the little cutie on white cardstock and used Spectrum Noir Classique Markers and Sakura Gelly Roll gel pens to add color, sparkle, shading, and highlights. I love how the sentiment “Glitter Girl” from We Are 3 fits so well with this digi. especially when paired with glittery heart stickers, brightly patterned paper, and both black and shining silver photo corners. 
Supplies: 

·   Digi- All Dressed Up Stamps (Birthday Girl)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, Sakura Gelly Roll white, glitter, and silver gel pens

·   Sparkly Heart Stickers- Hobby Lobby

·   Front and Inside Sentiments from We are 3 Digi Set (Magical)

·   Pioneer Black Photo corners- available from several sources

·   Silver photo corners available from several web sources (WXJ13 Photo Mounting Corners)

·   Cardstock, striped patterned paper, and other items from my stash.

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, and heart challenges all over the web, I just had to dig out a favorite old (like maybe from the ‘90s) Penny Black cat stamp! I decided to fussy-cut the little furball, which was a major task with all those whiskers, but he does look adorable perched atop a large heart.  A few sentiments and some bling, of course, and this card is ready to hit the mail!
Supplies: 

·   Rubber Stamp- Penny Black Cat with Heart (no longer available)

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

·   Stickers: Sparkly Hearts and Paw Print- Hobby Lobby

·   Front Sentiment “Happy Valentine’s Day”- Hero Arts (retired)

·   Dark Pink Pigment Inkpad with a mix of clear and black glitter embossing powders

·   Inside sentiment- “Loads of Love” is from a Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Long Haul)

·   Chalkboard Hearts Patterned Paper- Hobby Lobby

·   Cardstock and other items from my stash.

    Great job on the fussy cutting, I would have just cut those whiskers off and drawn them myself. LOL
