Power Poppy Creative Confetti Challenge - Sketch it Out!

I couldn't help but join the sketch challenge at Power Poppy with this last minute card!  I {LOVE} sketches and this one proved to be perfect for my Get Well card. My project started by printing the Power Poppy digital image Orchid Cascade onto Kraft card stock. The image was colored with Prismacolor pencils.  I hand cut the border shape to mimic the sketch.  Machine stitching and enamel dots finish the card. I would like to share my card with the following: Power Poppy Creative Confetti Challenge:  May Sketch it Out!   Simon Says Stamp Wednesday:  Anything Goes Word Art Wednesday: Anything Goes #388 - #389   Aud Sentiments Challenge:  #228 Nature and a Sentiment  

SugarPea Designs Mix It Up Challenge #55

I'm sharing a quick card tonight for the current SugarPea Mix It Up Challenge.  I love their sweet Best of Cluck set!   I started by sponging Dandelion Memento ink then stamping a couple of the chicks.  The hen house was stamped onto kraft and die cut.  A coordinating sentiment, baker's twine and enamel dots finish the card.

A Blog Named Hero May Challenge - Celebrate

I'm joining the Celebrate challenge at A Blog Named Hero with a clean and simple Anniversary card.  In keeping with the 45th Anniversary Celebration, I've used a couple of wood mounted images for my card - Botanical Peony H2123 and Happy Anniversary C2763.   I tried the repeat stamping technique with the peony image.  I don't typical go "black and white", but thought it was appropriate with the designer papers from American Crafts.  I'm glad I stepped out of my comfort zone with this one.

I LOVE this sweet digital from Mo called Thinking of You.  I decided to merge it with the ocean landscape from Mo's Beach Elements set. The image was colored with Copic Markers.  I water colored the sky with distress ink.   A Happy Birthday sentiment and stitched sun die finish the card.
