Do the Things

 This week at Creative Knockouts or theme is for the boys.

I used Caffeinated Craig from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps for my project. I colored the image with Copic markers and cut out the image with the Silhouette Cameo.  Unfortunately, there was some technical difficulties and my image was cut incorrectly.  One of these days I will learn to cut out the image BEFORE I color it.  I am not even sure what happened.  I think the blade got stuck in the paper somehow.

I feel the sentiment on this card every morning when I get up for work.  I have to have my coffee then do the things. =P  The mesh on this card has been rolling around in my stash for SO LONG!  It is Magic Mesh from Stampin' Up! and I feel like it is so great for a card for a guy.  I only used a little for this so I will have it rolling around in my stash for a little while longer.

Hello

 This week at Creative Knockouts our theme is Flower Power.


I used Tulip Border from Sheepski Designs for this project.  The image was colored with Copic markers and fussy cut.  The sentiment is from Queen & Co.  The top layer is cut from foam and has great dimension.

Celebrate You

 This month at Crafty Gals Corner, our challenge is For the Girls.


For my project I used Gigi Flap Dancer from MoonFlower Designs.  She was colored with Copic Markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo. Her jewelry was colored with gold Wink of Stella to give some great sparkle and shine.  The background paper is foiled, but it is so hard to capture in a picture.
