Snips, Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails - Stamptacular Sunday Challenge


Hey everyone,
  Just getting back from vacation and can finally post some things - whew I never knew how much I LOVED my internet until I didn't have it!!!  Anyhow, I made this card for the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge which is anything boy related!!!  So I decided to make this card with a free digi from Sliekje.  This little boy praying is just too cute and knowing boys - I thought a little computer generated paper saying "please don't let mom find out" was the perfect touch!  I have two nephews and from the sounds of it they often don't want mom to find out things! LOL  I used my alpha beads again with an elastic band that I could wrap around the card.  I popped the image of the boy colored with Copics using my 3D pop dots, I also cut two of the trains out of the Nanna's Stack from DCWV to pop. 

Finally, I used my cricut to cut out the word bubble from Indie Art - hiding the trouble - and placing in my generated paper. 
Enjoy!

For You - Sketch Saturday #114

Hi everyone,
  I decided to try my hand at a Sketch Saturday challenge using a cute image from one of my favorite designers - Sliekje - who gives her stamps out for FREE!!!  You had to follow this sketch:
I like this sketch - it has nice clean lines and it's fun with the little border on the side.  I first colored my little kitty stamp with Copics.  The rest was easy.  I found some paper in my stash - sorry no name that already had this cute little border and just used that as my border piece.  I used my new Bazzill paper for all of the solids on the card.  I cut little daisy's from Walk In My Garden - shadow and normal cut - I used two flowers and one shadow for each one.  Next, I added a few buttons that I threaded raffia through after layering the flowers. I liked the look of the brown buttons so decided to do the same where the round circles are on the sketch. The sentiment was computer generated and placed on matching paper.

It was a quick card using this sketch.  If you get a chance check out Sketch Saturday and be sure to stop Sliekje's blog for some beautiful freebies!!
Enjoy!
