Challenge a Go Go~

Hidee Ho stampers. Another quick post to share with you. I made this seriously delicious little card by combining not two but THREE challenges!!!

Amazing, I know! I started with this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge. I always want to play and rarely find time!

It's such a cute sketch, don't ya think! Next I added the oh, so lovely ColourQ Challenge to the mix.

Talk about color inspiration. I didn't have Pool Party so I substituted Soft Sky. I hope this is a close match. I haven't seen Pool Party yet. Lastly, I added The Pink Elephant Challenge #111. The theme was to use a butterfly. Perfection!

I did take a few liberties with the sketch. Originally I intended for my card to be vertical but, the oh so fabulous Chloe and The Mushroom (by CS Designs) just wouldn't fit. So, I switched gears, flipped my cards around and there you have it. She is popping off of the card. I created my own pattern paper with two SU! stamp sets and the Colour Q palette. Not too shabby if I do say so myself! Thanks so much for stopping by. As always your comments are appreciated! TTFN~

Hello Kiki La Rue~

I am all about the challenges these days. It really takes the pressure off of making a card. This sketch is from Taylored Expressions Sketch challenge #141 and it looks like I am getting it in just under the wire. Today is the last day to play along. 

This was a fun sketch to play with and I happened to have another  C.C. Designs Digital Stamp that I hadn't gotten to play with yet. FUN!!! I'm also playing along with the Wednesday Challenge at All that Scraps. This week it's Punches or Dies. My scallop rectangle is from a Spellbinders die and I used my corner rounder punch. 

This is Coffee Kiki La Rue. I think she is adorable. In fact I love her so much I may just have to purchase her in rubber. My favorite thing about this card is that she is colored in with my new COPIC markers. Yep, I took the Copic plunge and after just one card I am doing the Copic dance. Seriously, I am in love (drool). Anyway, more about that tomorrow. TTFN!

Another Challenge~

    Good morning Stampers. I managed to stamp a little yesterday, and I am so glad that I did. I used this awesome sketch from My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club challenge #26.

Isn't it fun!!! Unfortunately, I don't yet have any of their awesome stamps but, I did have a fun little C.C. designs digital stamp that I have been wanting to play with.

This was my first time working with a digital stamp. It was fun! I can't say that I liked it as much as a traditional stamp, I mean I am fairly addicted to ink. LOL. Still, there are so many fabulous images out there and let's face it Digital Stamps are cheaper and certainly easier to store. LOVE! 

This is C.C. Designs Kiki La Rue. Isn't she adorable! I colored her in with my Stampin' Write markers. I would love to see what she looks like in Copics. Wouldn't you? Anyway, have to run. Thanks for stopping by!
