Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge--Stitch it Up!!

Are you ready for a fun Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge?  Our super talented hostess, my sweet friend Pat, has chosen the theme-- Stitching.  Here is what I created:

To be honest, I think this would have been perfect for last week's CAS card. LOL  But I thought this image, called Queen of Hearts would be fun for the Stitching challenge as I had lots of room to sew.
The image was colored with copic markers and then I used a zip zag stitch to sew the gold layer to the red base.  I sewed with a straight stitch and added a zig zag single stitch every once in a while for a little added interest. :)  I have my little craft sewing machine right under my desk and just have to lift it up to use it, should do it more often. :)
I kept the embelllishments to a minimum only adding a band of red gingham ribbon and a bow, and my favorite, a fan of tiny playing cards, which were from a deck of cards given to me by one of my daughters. Aren't they cute!!!
Be sure to stop by the Challenge blog and check out the rest of the DT cards and drop by the Digital Pencil Store and check out the darling new Valentine kids Mo has created.  Love em.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful creative day.

Yeah it is Thursday--Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge!!!

Yep, Thursday and Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge is here. The mega-talented Dawn is our hostess this week and created a wonderful Sketch for us to use. I love sketch challenges and this was no exception. Here is my twisted version:

Isn't this image, called Dormouse from the Alice in Wonderland series Mo is creating right now, just so sweet.  I don't know if he is supposed to be sweet but I couldn't resist him, besides he was free for 24 hours yesterday.  I colored with copic markers and sponged with distress ink.
The beautiful roses were a recent purchase from Hobby Lobby in the Quilling section.  There are 4 different colors and 3 sizes of roses already punched and cut, all you have to do is roll them up and glue them together. Much faster than punching a circle, cutting the spiral and then rolling them, I like the look.  I added some leaves and punched springs using a MS punch.'
You might notice the dp is the same as I used last week for my Rainbow Blog Hop card but it was just too perfect a print for a tea cup card...
Be sure you stop by the store to see all the awesome new images Mo has come up with this past week and check out the rest of the DT cards as they are awesome as well.
I forgot to mention I turned the sketch sideways to fit the image I wanted to use.  I added the flower spray instead of a sentiment tag :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Artistic Outpost card for the new Release

The Artistic Outpost, Wonderland Collage stamps are available as of yesterday and they are awesome.  I love all of the Artistic Outpost stamp plates, but this new release is one of my favorites.  As amazing as it sounds for a person who has been a reader all of her life, I have never read Alice in Wonderland, nor have I seen the movies.  I know some of the quotes and the gist of the story just because we all do.  Here is my second card created for the new release:  Alice in the Looking Glass is the Classic..........:

Alice in the Looking Glass was so much fun to color.  I tried to keep it soft and vintage with a modern touch.  The main image was cut out around the outside edge and mounted on a panel that I had punched with the beautiful double loop corner and border punch set from Martha Stewart.

Each layer was mounted on white cs to highlight each layer.  The dp are both from the My Mind's Eye Delightful paper pack.

A dark pink gem was added to the sentiment added to the main image.  A medium half pearl was added to the top of the crown.  3 medium half pearls were added to the upper left corner to add a touch of elegance and a dainty pink sheer ribbon was tied around the bottom of the main image.

If you like the Classic Children's stories you will love this set and the possibilities are endless.

Be certain that you stop by the DT members blogs to check out their awesome creations if you haven't already and the store is open 24-7 for your convenience.
