Stampin' In Alaska

The Bugaboo Design Team is back this week with a fun recipe challenge:  Keep it Simple! 1 layer of paper, 1 sentiment and 1 embellishment. My clean and simple card features the adorable Bugaboo digital image Funny Pup 2. One of the things I {Love} about digital images is the sizing.  I use Microsoft Word to size and print images for my projects.  I selected a size that would take center stage on my card base  which is 4.25 x 5.5 inches. The image was printed onto Stampin' Up! Whisper White card stock and colored with Copic markers. I created a confetti background  with Copic Markers dotted freehand around the image. Supplies:  Rhinestone, Lawn Fawn Speech Bubble Border, CTMH Black embossing powder,  Copic Markers (E53, E33, Y06, Y17, YR16, R02, R05, B12) and Stampin' Up! Simple Sayings II set.

Graciellie Design is sponsoring this week over at Word Art Wednesday .  The design team is joining the fun this week and sharing some lovely floral inspiration featuring this week's scripture I Timothy 4:12. My clean and simple design features Poppy Wishes from the Graciellie Design shop. I began by printing the digital image onto Stampin' Up! Whisper White card stock. The image was colored with Copic Markers (YG63, G94, R17, R29, Y35) and a watercolor background with distress inks. I printed the Scripture onto vellum and adhered with a machine stitched border.  Sequins from Verve Stamps finish the card.   I'm sharing my card with the following: Word Art Wednesday:  Anything Goes #302-303 Simon Says Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes Through the Craft Room Door:  Anything Goes Crafting with Friends:  #51 Anything Goes Crafty Sentiments Designs:  Anything Goes

Happy Friday Coffee Lovers!   It's the final day of the Fall Coffee Lovers Bloghop and I have a fun card to share.   I recently purchased the Tim Holtz On the Go embossing folder and HAD to use it this week.  It coordinates perfectly with the Tim Holtz image.  The sentiment is from Super Sponsor Unity Stamps and the stitched circle die is from Super Sponsor Pink & Main.   I also used the current SugarPea Designs challenge sketch as inspiration.
