Emma and the Snowball!

 Hi friends!

After some craziness with Covid (daughter thinking she had it, thank goodness she was negative; but then the following week, a co-worker tested positive), I am finally back with a post for Colour Crazy Challenge! And just in time to celebrate with Fred She Said using Emma and the Snowball.

I think this image would be PERFECT for creating lots of holiday tags in all different colors. I enjoyed coloring Emma with Copics, then added lots of details with a white gel pen and sharpie. I embossed a sentiment and the edges of the tag with a sentiment and Brutus Monroe rainbow embossing powder - but it really doesn't show up. 😒 I added some texture paste, let it dry and sponged on some ink; I added another tag on the back side to contain a holiday message; finished it off with this velvet ribbon and some bells.

Thanks for stopping by; I hope you'll join our challenge with your project featuring coloring, that's the only requirement!

Take care and stay safe!

Hugs,

CHALLENGES

Colour Crazy Team - Fred She Said

Hi friends - I hope this note finds you doing well, staying safe & healthy!

Our weekly challenge is always "Anything Goes" as long as you include some coloring on your project; hope you'll play along, we enjoy seeing your creations!

This week we are featuring digital images from Fred She Said; I used the Poppies image. Sometimes I should study an image a bit more before coloring (more on that momentarily - LOL). It's another simple card colored with Copics and colored pencils. I stamped a sentiment from THIS set two times in the lower left-hand corner and one time in the upper right-hand corner BUT after adding shading, it's definitely difficult to see. Whoops! I also added this postmark stamp along with a leaf image 3 times in the middle of the postmark image.

I added some striped paper to the base card and mounted the panel on fun foam, I finished the card with some PPP marshmallow confetti sequins.

OK, things you should know...poppies come in ALL different colors; hence the variety on my card; BUT that flower in the lower left-hand corner? Yea, that's a bud, not an actual flower - oops! #howtoknowitshandmade :D

Thanks for popping in; hope you'll check out all the other creations at the Colour Crazy Challenge, then join the fun! See you again soon!!

CHALLENGES:

Father's Day 2010

Hi friends! SUPER quick/short post tonight; we got to bed shortly after 1 a.m. last night after our little man's baseball game that finished at midnight. They are playing again tonight at 9:45 p.m., but I skipped it...daddy went. WOW - I am old...I am exhausted! LOL

These are a couple Father's Day cards I made this year; the first is a pre-colored digital image from Fred She Said; if you've never checked out their store - you should; they have some incredible images!! I added some shading and silver shine to the truck; sponged the edges with PTI's vintage cream and put it all together using MME's Quite Contrary DP.

The next card uses the Noble Deer set from Stampin' Up!; I stamped the deer onto glossy paper then brayered the sunset and ground area. I punched small notches in either side and wrapped the hemp around 3 times before securing it beneath the 2 buttons. Buttons are 'from the stash'. LOL - yeah, YOU have one of those stashes too huh?

That's about it; thanks for popping in friends. Thursday and Friday are going t be really long days at work; therefore I'm headed to bed early tonight! Hope you have a great one; hugs, ~M.
