It's Spring over at Di's

Happy Saturday to all of you.  We have a new challenge for you over on Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog.  Our latest challenge is "spring" -- pretty easy, right?

I used this sweet little bear image named Special Just For You.  She's colored with copics and colored pencils and I added some acrylic paint polkadots to her hairbow.  There's glitter paint on the flower bouquet and also on the little butterflies, just to give a little bit of sparkle to the card.  I do love my sparkle lol!

Our challenge is being sponsored by There She Goes and they're giving a $25 voucher to the winner of the challenge!  You'll want to visit their shop to see the adorable stamps they offer.  

Be sure to stop by Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog to check out the beautiful work by the rest of this sweet team.  On a sad note, this is my last challenge with Di as I've decided to step down from the team.  Thank you Di, for allowing me to work with your adorable images.  And thank you also to the rest of the DT - you're an amazing and talented group of ladies ;)  I'm sure I'll still see all of you in blogland.

Thank you for stopping by.  Have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs, Anita

I have used Di's sweet Daffodil Bunny and colored him with copics and colored pencils.  I used Liquid Applique on his tail ... not sure why but I can't seem to pass up a bunny tail without applying that fluffy stuff, and there's a bit of glitter paint on the butterfly.

A New Challenge at Di's DigiDesigns

Hello friends.  We have a new challenge for you over at Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog.  We want to see embossing ... wet or dry.

I used Poorly Ted on my card today.  Isn't he just the cutest?  His sweet little face would cheer up anyone who's feeling a bit under the weather, don't you think?  I used copics and colored pencils and added some Glossy Accents to Ted and the bunny's noses, and also to the band-aid on his noggin'.  Of course there's some embossing and then I added some ribbon, flowers, and pearls.  My poor hubby is recovering from surgery so I could give him this card ... but somehow I don't think he would be too wild about a card with ribbon, flowers and pearls lol!  So I think Poorly Ted will just hang out with me until I can send him to a new home that will love and appreciate him ;)

It's Time For Pastels

Good morning friends.  We have a new challenge for you today over on Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog.  Our new challenge is "pastels", which I happen to love :)

I used Kittys Garden Gate on my card today.  I'm really more of a dog person than a cat person, but I fell in love with this image when I saw it.  I colored these sweet kitties with copics and colored pencils and added some glitter paint to the flowers.  My sentiment is from the Friend Stamp Set by the Precious Remembrance Shop.

A New Di's DigiDesigns Challenge

Good morning friends.  Are you managing to stay warm?  We've been having some snow and it's sooo cold outside.  We've actually been very lucky as this has been a very mild winter so I really shouldn't complain ... but I am so ready for spring!

We have a new challenge for you over on Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog.  Our new challenge is "snow, snowmen, snowflakes", so I figured this would be the perfect time to add to my Christmas card stash.

I used Di's Reindeer Holly.  I colored this sweet image with copics and colored pencils and used Glossy Accents on the reindeer's nose.  I sprinkled Glamour Dust on her fur trim and the snow.  I added some snowflake diecuts, a seam binding bow, and a button to finish my card.

Our challenge is being sponsored by Sketching Stamper Digis.  Please stop by Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog to get all the challenge details and to see the beautiful work by the DT.

A Valentine Mouse

Happy Saturday friends.  We have a new challenge for you over at Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog and the theme is "Valentine's".  So why not make a Valentine card for your sweetie and play along in our challenge?

I used this adorable Mouse With Love image.  I colored this cutie with Distress Inks and added glitter paint to the butterfly.  I used Glamour Dust on the die-cut hearts and added some lace and a little bow.  The charm actually has the word "love" on it but I'm not sure you can tell that from the photo.

A Sketch by the Divas

Hello friends.  We have a new challenge today over on the Divas by Design Challenge Blog and it's a sketch.  

I used Dear Santa by Di's Digi Downloads.  I love this image and figured I might as well get started on my Christmas cards for this year.  This little guy is colored with distress inks and I've used Glamour Dust on the fur parts of his hat and suit.

Thank You Bunnies

Happy Saturday friends.  Are you managing to stay warm wherever you are?  We are having extremely cold weather and snow so I'm staying indoors where it's nice and toasty.  We have a new challenge over at Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog and the theme is "Thank You".

I used Bunnies Summertime for my card and colored this cute scene with copics and colored pencils.  I used glitter paint on the butterfly, Liquid Applique on the bunny tails, and Liquid Pearls on the mushrooms.  My lovely crochet flower was handmade by the sweet and extremely talented Arabella.  I was the lucky winner of her recent blog candy and it included quite a few of these beautiful flowers.  I'm quite proud of myself for using the flower instead of hoarding them lol!

I used Di's Angel Bear to make a baby card.  I colored this sweet little bear with copics and colored pencils and used Glossy Accents on his nose and feet.  I added Glamour Dust to the star, his wings, and the cloud.  I added a bow with a sentiment tag and some brads.

Peace on Earth

Hello friends.  We have a new challenge for you over at Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog.  Our latest challenge is to make a Christmas or winter card/project.  Pretty easy, right?

I used this adorable image called Dressing Snowman on my card.  I just love this little scene with the teddy and birds adding the finishing touches to their new friend.  I used Distress Inks to color the image and added Glamour Dust (of course lol!) to their hats, the snowman, and the ground snow.  I added Liquid Pearls to the falling snow and some Glossy Accents to the teddy's nose.

Spooky Treats

Have you had your Trick-or-Treat night yet?  Ours was last night and we actually had more beggers than we've had the last couple of years.  It's so fun to see the little ones in their costumes, isn't it?  I love making Halloween cards and decorations so I'm sad that Halloween is almost over.  This will probably be my last Halloween project for the year.

I used Background Haunted House from Di's Digi Downloads.  I printed the haunted house scene onto my Halloween paper and then cut out the scalloped tag using a Sizzix die.  I made the rosette and added a computer-generated sentiment.  Some black and orange gingham ribbon finished off my project.  My hubby found this candy jar so I'm really suprised there's any candy corn left lol!

Something Spooky

We have a new challenge for you today over on the Divas by Design Challenge Blog and our challenge is to make something spooky.

I have used Magic Spell by Di's Digi Downloads for my spooky little card.  OK, I'll admit she doesn't look very spooky - but she does look very cute, doesn't she?  I colored this friendly witch with copics and colored pencils and used Glamour Dust on her hat and magic wand.  I've added some ribbon and a little charm and then punched out a spiderweb with my Martha Stewart punch.

Paint Yourself A Different Color

Happy Tuesday friends.  I have a sweet little bear to show you today.

This little cutie is Bearicelli and you can find him and lots of other adorable images over at Di's Digi Downloads.  I colored this little budding artist with copics and colored pencils.  I added Glossy Accents to the nose, paintbrush handles, and the paint blobs (yes, I'm sure that's the term all professional artists use, lol) on the palette.  I stitched all my papers and added some ribbon and a bow. 

As soon as I saw Bearicelli I knew exactly which sentiment I wanted to use with him.  I've had these cute little Inkadinkado  sentiments for quite a while and I knew this sentiment would go perfectly with this bear.  Wouldn't this be the perfect card to cheer up a friend who's feeling a little down?  You may want to hand-deliver this card though because it's very heavy lol! 

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your day.
