Stampin' In Alaska

  I've had this colored image in my stash for a while waiting for the perfect card.  There are a couple of challenges this week that call for either wildlife (not so wild maybe, but furry) and of course, fur. I am also adding this to my donation stack for the March Cards For Cubs card drive.  I learned about the organization through Splitcoast Stampers and their monthly Cards for a Cause post.  Please check the links to learn more about the event. The digital image called Best Seat in the House is from Just Ink Lined.  Sadly, they are no longer in business.  My hope is that this encouragement card brings a smile to the recipient.  It was colored with Copic Markers and Prismacolor pencils, fussy cut and popped up with dimension tape.  Papers from Simple Stories Homespun and sentiment from American Art Stamp complete the card.  I would like to share my card with the following: We Love Stamping:   Wildlife Inspiration PIP Challenge:...

I'm sharing a card for this week's Unity sketch challenge on their Facebook Page. Unity released a new set called "bountiful Owl" recently which has  given me an opportunity to start on my Thanksgiving cards for family and friends. The image was stamped on water color paper  then colored with Tombow pens and a blender.  Tim Holtz distress inks  were also used.   Designer papers are from  Simple Stories Pumpkin Spice  Paper Pad.  Machine stitched borders and  enamel dots finish the card. I'm really pleased with the end result. I'm sharing my card with the following: Your Next Stamps:  Sketch and Color Challenge #48 Word Art Wednesday:  #248 - #249 Anything Goes   Critters and Creatures Linky Party: Challenge #7   Aud Sentiments Challenge:  #164 Fall Colors + A Sentiment
