I'm sharing a mini slimline design for this week's MFT sketch and color challenges. My card features the adorable Lucky Dog set and retired Farm Fence Die-namic. The dog was die cut and colored with Tombow Markers. The fence die was cut from Cement Gray card stock and layered onto designer papers from MFT Positively Peppy paper pad. I finished with a ball from the same set and coordinating birthday sentiment. The finished card size is 6 x 3.5. I would like to share my card with the following: My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge #597 My Favorite Things Color Challenge #191 Dragonfly Dreams Challenge: June - Outdoors Allsorts Challenge: Week 680 Any Stamped Image Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Bright and Cheerful

I'm fairly new to Verve Stamps and just discovered a couple of new-to-me challenges that they host monthly. Viva la Verve May Sketch #1 has lots of layers but it was really fun to play with! I've combined designer papers from the MME Reunion paper pad with a fun digital stamp set created by Julee Tilman for the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. The color combo was inspired by the May Verve Inspiration Challenge Thanks for stopping by for a closer look!

My Favorite Things has recently released their second card kit called Warm & Fuzzy Friends and I immediately fell in LOVE! Of course, I had to play with all of the fun stamps, dies, papers and inks for this week's sketch challenge. You can check it out in the MFT shop HERE . The images were water colored with distress inks then die cut with the coordinating dies. The grass die cut is from Sweet 'n Sassy and MFT jelly bean cardstock was used.

This week's challenge over on Mo's Digital Pencil Blog was to use this sketch: Here's my take on the sketch: I used Mo's "Late" digital image and had so much fun coloring this sweet bunny. I decided to go with some Spring colors and added Bo Bunny Sunflower Stripe designer paper and yellow rick rack. A dimensional sunflower finishes off the design. I think I'm ready for some spring weather and flowers! Supplies: Stampin' Up! Garden Green cardstock, Bo Bunny designer paper Nestibilities and Cuttlebug Copic markers, Stampin' Up! chalk, dauber and rick rack
