Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Alphabet challenge 

The letter this challenge is

M  - for MAGIC

For my card I was so stumped.. I asked hubby.. what can I use to make a magic card.. he said do you have a top hat, a rabbit, a dove???  So that made the mush in my head start to clear and think.. So I remembered I had the Tim Holtz crazy birds accessories images and there is the hat.. I have different bunny stamps so used My favorite things cause they were smaller.. Then looking for a sentiment I found this My favorite things stamps set.. WA-LA.. I have a card idea.. thanks to hubby planting the seed. So using Kraft I stamped the MFT image. colored with copics and white gel pen. I stamped the hat and bunny and colored with copics and using the dies cut them out. I added the MFT sentiment. I am happy with this fun card.

Our theme this week is

ANYTHING GOES / ADD METAL

Our sponsor is Dr. Digis

This is my card using the Mr. Slaters parrot.. I colored with copics. I think I should of googled parrots and colors but I didn't want to be the bright reds/yellows and such but I think the softer tones are ok.. Parrots are so pretty. I added some left over diamond drills. hubby pointed out that looks like the parrots is making a mess... lol. oops .. glue has dried so they are there to stay.. I took my banner punch and using the foil from coffee cans to keep the coffee fresh till you open it.. punched 3 banners. Added the twine.  The sentiment is from Tim Holtz snarky booklet. Looks like he doesn't care with his look and Mr. Slaters look.

Our theme this challenge is

TRIANGLES 

For my card I dug through some scraps.. These are Quick Quote designer papers. I used a Sizzix die and cut the shapes and went around the edges with some Quick Quote chalk ink then laid out the design. I found a cute Tim Holtz snarky sentiment and finished with some diamond painting drills that I am getting quite a stash of.. I do at least one if not more diamond painting a month and they are usually large ones so there are plenty of left overs. They are perfect for card embellishments.
