Di's Digi Challenge - All About Animals

 

I'm joining the current challenge at Di's Digi Challenge blog featuring the adorable Birdbath digital image.  I was a lucky challenge winner recently and this is one of the images I chose.  It has such a fun feel of Spring, don't you think?

The image was printed onto X-Press It card stock and colored with Copic Markers.  I'm currently "destashing" my craftroom and came across this adorable floral paper in my stash.  The fabric floral ribbon and metal leaf embellishments were also discovered in bins.  At the last minute, I grabbed the doily for extra texture.  The final card size is 5.5 square.

I would like to share my card with the following:

The Paper Shelter Challenge #629 - Anything Goes with the optional twist of Alter It!

 

I'm joining the Paper Shelter Challenge with the optional twist of Alter It!  My clean and simple (CAS) design features The Paper Shelter The Most Adorable Panda digital image.

One of my favorite features of digital images is sizing.  I used MS Word to resize the B&W lined digital image and cropped it.  It was printed onto Stampin' Up! Crumb Cake card stock and colored with Prismacolor pencils.  The sentiment is from a digital set by Beccy Muir.

Art Impressions Challenge #398 CASE that Card

 



I'm joining the current Art Impressions Challenge to CASE that Card!  My card features AI stamps from their Bird Brain line.  Birdie and Stay in Your Nest were both retired in 2018.  I love this big chicken and he's perfect for so many occasions.  Papers are from Graphic45 Farmhouse and the chicken wire embossing folder is Cuttlebug.  Cheese cloth and enamel dots complete the 5.5 square card.

This is Donna's card who I chose to CASE. You can link to it on Donna's blog HERE.

The Paper Shelter Challenge #627 Anything Goes - Option Buttons and/or Bows


The Paper Shelter Challenge is now Anything Goes with a weekly optional twist.  My card features the adorable Vintage Seamstress pre-colored image and the option of a bow.

I started with a measuring tape embossed panel.  The image was die cut and layered onto several circle dies from my stash which I embossed with different folders.  I found a piece of yummy coordinating ribbon in my stash as well.  The card was finished with enamel dots and a sentiment from Hero Arts.
