Floral Birthday

  While cleaning my craft room yesterday I came across a few panels in my stash that were colored.  This features a digital stamp from a company who is no longer in business - Craftin Desert Divas.  It is always sad when a craft company goes out of business.  But I still enjoy using their great products! This image was colored with Copic Markers and die cut.  The designer paper was also in my stash.  A few pearls and digital sentiment complete the card.

Sweet November Stamps - Happy Thanksgiving

  It's hard to believe that Fall is here in Alaska.  Trees are turning and there is a briskness to the air.  Time to begin my annual Thanksgiving card stock pile for friends and family. I began building my scene with digital kitchen images from Craftin' Desert Divas Stamps.  Sadly, they are no longer in business.  My card focus is on the Sweet November Stamps Wee Pie Baker image and her little pies.  They were colored with Copic Markers. The card size is 6.5 x 4.25 so I kept it simple with a green border and sentiment from Hero Arts.

Di's Digi Challenge - Fancy Folds or ABC

  I'm joining the current challenge at Di's Digi Challenge Blog.  This week is about fancy folds or ABC (anything but a card).  I chose to create a fun Z-Fold card with Di's adorable Racoon Cupcake digital image.  You can find the card fold tutorial on Beccy's Place HERE. The digital image was printed onto X-Press It card stock, colored with Copic Markers then fussy cut.  I created the kitchen scene using pre-colored images from an older digital set from Craftin' Desert Divas.  Sadly, this fabulous stamping company went out of business several years ago. The flooring was hand stamped with MFT On Solid Ground clear set.  A Paper Smooches birthday sentiment finishes the card.

Art Impressions Challenge #308 Funky Fold

  I'm joining the current challenge at Art Impressions with a center step card.  This was such a fun card to create!  I colored and fussy cut every image in the AI His & Hers Flying High set. The images were colored with Tombow markers.  Paper is from Memory Box and the die cut border is from Craftin Desert Divas (retired).  I would like to share my card with the following: Art Impressions Challenge #308 Funky Fold Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes Word Art Wednesday:  Week #501 - 502 Anything Goes Aud Sentiments Challenge: #280 Anything Goes + Sentiment Colour Crazy Challenge: Week 30 Anything Goes   Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:  Birthday Celebration

AAA Cards Clean and Simple Challenge #156

The cold, snowy weather in my area has sent my Crafty Mojo on a downward spiral this week!  But this fun CAS sketch design at AAA Cards Challenge gave me a boost today. I pulled out a folder with a few images which I've colored recently and decided this cute chicken from Craftin' Desert Divas would work perfect for a clean and simple Birthday card.  A Stampin' Up! emboss folder was used for the cross panel.  The sentiment is from Art Impressions.  The digital chicken image was colored with Copic markers and highlighted with charcoal pencil.

Coffee Loving Cardmakers - September Caffeine Fueled Paper Play

I'm joining the current Caffeine Fueled Paper Play Challenge at Coffee Loving Cardmakers with this card featuring Craftin' Desert Divas digital set Espresso Yourself. The Coffee Loving Cardmakers are paying a tribute to Tara and Craftin' Desert Divas this month as she sadly closes her shop.  I love the pre-color digital images that Tara provides.  They look great and are perfect when I need a quick card.  I have combined it with a sentiment from My Favorite Things - CS Coffee (Retired) and papers from Your Next Stamp.
