Which is Witch?

It's time for another Raise the Bar challenge and this week we have a witchy theme.  Whimsie Doodles has this adorable Flying Lizzie Witch digi available HERE.  I colored with Copics and used the sketch (in a flipped version) from the Tuesday Morning Sketches  blog - my first time playing along with this challenge.
DP is from the Jen Yanok pad by K&Co. The sentiment is computer generated, punched with SU's word window punch and layered over a black circle.  Black seam binding finish off this Halloween creation.  Thanks for stopping by! 

Color Throwdown

Happy Wednesday friends! It's time for another Color Throwdown Challenge and you're going to love this great combo by Joan!!  I discovered that Whimsie Doodles, a fun site for digital images, has this image as a freebie up until midnight on Friday the 19th.

I used Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge for the layout...a fun one!  I colored with Copics and embossed the Summer Sun panel with the Pumpkin Harvest EF.  The green plaid paper is from the Simply Autumn 12x12 pad by Recollections.  The button is a brilliant blue IRL, but for some reason it looks black in the photo. :-(

Here's hoping you'll play along with us! For more details about the CTD challenge and for more inspiration by the design team, please check out the Color Throwdown blog or you can stop by each of the DT members' blogs and leave them some love.  You'll also want to check out the talented Dawn Easton's card (our guest designer this month).

Raise the Bar

It's the first Friday of the month, so that means we have a sponsor and a prize at Raise the Bar! We are happy to have Whimsie Doodles as our sponsor...the site of so many adorable digi images! I'm a collector of snowmen and love using them around the house during the winter months, so it's no surprise I chose this sweet Flakey Snowman digi image!  I colored with Copics and added fine glitter to the snowflakes.  Another Christmas card done...check!

Joni gave us this great sketch for our challenge theme, so what are you waiting for?  Join us and go for a chance to win!  For details and more inspiration from the other bartenders, head on over to the Raise the Bar blog.

Christmas Cottage

Good Thursday morning! Using the sketch for this week's Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge, I added another Christmas card to my stash.  I colored with Copics and added glitter to the snowy areas.  I wanted a sentiment on the front, so tweaked the 3 circles and went with a fancy label instead.  Earlier in the year, I won a blog candy gift from Verve diva Tosh, and this paper pad from Little Yellow Bicycle was in that prize.  All the blues in that pad are perfect for snowy winter scenes!  That's a clue...stay tuned for tomorrow's Raise the Bar card that involves snow again. :-)

STAMPS: Christmas Cottage (Waltzingmouse Stamps)
ACCESSORIES: Labels Four Nesties, Sheer ribbon, Fancy Framed Tags Two by SB, Pearls, MS fine glitter, Copics.

Raise the Bar

Good Friday to you! It's time for the weekly Raise the Bar challenge and since it's the first TGIF day of the month...we have a sponsor - woohoo! Whimsie Doodles is offering a $10 coupon to one lucky participant! Their digital images are just the cutest, so hope you can play along with us! I used Sea Shell Leah for this end of summer card...so fun to color with Copics! The challenge is to use paper piecing, so I pieced the swimsuit. If you post a card to a gallery for this challenge, remember to use the key word: RTB73. The layout is for this week's Sketch Challenge on SCS.
