myasperations 6-20-24

   For this month’s Anything Goes challenge at Sheepski Designs  my DT card features an adorable work of art named “Bear Tales” by artist/owner Andrea Norris. Doesn’t the group of fuzzy friends look comfortable sharing a book in the great outdoors! I liked the critters so much that I printed extra copies of a few of them, that I colored, fussy-cut, and added to the inside sentiment. Ahhhh… so cute!

       I am on a roll with cute critters for this posting!. This cute trio, "Three Chilly Polar Bears," is from artist/owner Diane Carubia! Because they are dressed warmly, I dropped them into a snowy scene, then added assorted snowflakes to provide a bit of texture, and "iced" them with a touch of Stickles to add some bling! 
 
Supplies: 
·   Digi from Di’s Digi Stamps (Three Chilly Polar Bears)
·   Snowy Scene is a background digi from a digi set at The Paper Shelter.

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

·   Front Sentiment- Freebie from Create with TLC (Warm Winter Wishes)

·   Diamond Stickles, assorted snowflakes, and other items from my stash.

      One more “critter card” this time featuring a lone character, Rudolph who appears to be swinging from a rooftop while doing the Christmas Eve door dash… or in this case, rooftop dash?! I made this card for the current ABC Christmas Challenge theme “M is for Music”. It features a scrap of sheet music I found in a well-worn songbook I  found at a rummage sale several years ago (and just re-discovered when cleaning my garage this month!) . With the help of a few other treasures from my stash, the card came together pretty quickly. 
Supplies: 

·   Rudolph embellishment- upcycled from an old Christmas Card

·   “Up On the Housetop” Vintage Sheet Music

·    Sentiments are from a Polka Dot Orchard Digi Set (Swinging by with Holiday Cheer)

·   All other items from my stash.

  1. A wonderful trio of critter cards Kathy - I think my favourite is the group of friends reading in the 'wilderness', but Rudolph is pretty darn cute also :)
