Life's a Beach

Wow, another month has flown by, but you still have a few days left this month to enter the One Crazy Stamper challenge of Anything Goes with any stamped image - no digital images are allowed!! 

For the entire month the design team has been featuring images from our sponsor company - WHIMSY STAMPS, and my card today has a wonderful Elisabeth Bell image called Beauty.

 



 

Once again I have used Copic sketch markers to color the image, and then I used a Sakura Stardust pen to add highlight to the mermaid tail ( you probably can't see the shine of the fins, but it looks great ! ).  I used my Grand Calibur and a Grand die to cut the shape of the card, then layered paper from Authentique's Renew collection for added color.  The ribbon and sentiment are from my stash.

Sleepy Time

Good morning everyone!!  It's a lovely Sunday morning here and it's also time for the next Dream Valley Challenge, which is the theme of "Buttons".  My card features an adorable image by Elisabeth Bell entitled "All Peeked Out Peeker", which I colored with Copics.  I cut the image and the mat with Spellbinders Label 2, inked the edges with some Dew Drops ink pads and then popped the image up on the front of a gate fold card.  The dp is an oldie from Bo Bunny "Alissa Love You" a beautiful double sided paper, the ribbon and buttons are from my stash.
