Stampin' In Alaska

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

This week's challenge over on Mo's Digital Pencil blog is to use 3 punches. I had so much fun coloring this guy that Mo illustrated recently for the Paper Craft Planet members. He looks so sad that he is "late for his important date". I colored the image with Copic Markers and used Stampin' Up Watercolor Wonder crayons for the ground. Two Martha Stewart border punches, a corner punch and an oval nestibility diecut were used on the card. Supplies: A Muse Shimmer, SU retired Pink Pirouette Martha Stewart Border punches, corner rounder, Nestibilities Copic markers, SU Watercolor wonder, SU chalk, ribbon, K&Company pearls

This week it's a 'Color Splash' challenge ... inspired by the photo below. 'Color Splash' is simply black & white with a 'bit' of color. Here's my take on the challenge using Crafty Secrets Bird Notes and a lace doily. I stamped on the doily with Stazon Jet Black ink then colored the image with a Copic Marker. I lightly sponged the doily with Adirondack latte ink. I picked up the vintage lace recently at an outdoor market on Maui. It adds such a great finishing touch to vintage projects. I hope to use more as I practice with vintage themed projects. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!
