Stampin' In Alaska

  I'm joining the current HMFMC challenge with a fun beach scene and the optional ribbon.  The House Mouse image was colored with Prismacolor pencils and layered onto Stampin' Up! Tempting Turqouise and designer paper from my stash.  The yummy ribbon was also in my stash!    The sun die cut and sentiment are from Lil' Inker Designs.  A few dew drops complete the 5.5 square card. I would like to share my card with the following: HMFMC 439 # Anything Goes with the option Add A Ribbon PIP Challenge  #2518 Anything Goes We Love Stamping Challenge:   AG or 4-legged friends Lil Patch of Crafty Friends:   #252 Anything Goes

  I'm joining the challenge at Di's Digi with a sunny birthday card.  My card features Di's Rose Kitty digital image.  It was colored with alcohol markers and fussy cut.  I've included lots of layers from American Crafts Dear Lizzy Neapolitan paper pad. The little sun die is a favorite from Lil' Inker Designs.  A few rhinestones and birthday sentiment from Paper Smooches (retired) finish the card. I would like to share my card with the following:  Di's Digi Challenge - Include a Sun Aud Sentiments Challenge: #280 Anything Goes + Sentiment Colour Crazy Challenge: Week 30 Anything Goes   Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:  Birthday Celebration Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes

This week Sassy Dawn's challenge is "Thinking of You".  Well, who could resist using the new " Penny for your Thoughts " image from the Sassy Cheryl shop?!  If you haven't heard, Cheryl is focusing on the Sassy Sally image and she is really on a roll!  Be sure to check the shop for all of the NEW images she has come up with! Here's what I came up with using the new image: In case you've missed it, Cheryl has also started a new BLOG .  Along with sneak peeks of the new designs, she has created a couple of coloring tutorials that are fabulous!  Before I started coloring this Sassy Sally image, I hopped over and watched THIS tutorial on how Cheryl colored the hair, shorts and shoes.  I had to use a couple of alternate colors on the hair, but I like the end result.  I picked up some fabulous coloring tips from the tutorial! Here's close up photo of the finished image: The clouds were created with a die cut from The Cat's Pajama'...

I used two TSG sets for this project.  The wrapped gift is from "Scent-sational" and the sentiment is from "Blossom by Blossom".  The little gift bag is from Martha Stewart and the image was colored with Copic Markers.
