Beautiful You

This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge is Friendship.  We want to see your cards celebrating friendship.


For my project this week I used Field Flower Silhouettes from The Artsy Stamper.  The image has a transparent background so you can print it with any background or layer it for even more flowers.  The background I chose is from the Bo Bunny Gabrielle collection available digitally from Snap Click Supply.  The sentiment is also from that set.

You have a chance to win a digital set from the store.  Hop on over and see what other awesome images are available.

Tulips

This week at Crafty Sentiments, we have an Anything Goes challenge for you.


I chose Tulips for my project.  It was colored with Copic markers and cut out using a Die-Namics die from My Favorite Things.  I thought pretty spring colors would work well for this!  The sentiment stamp is from DeNami Design.

Happiness

This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge is to use buttons. 


I chose my image from the Showers of Tulips set by Jan's Digi Stamps.  What I didn't realize when I chose this image was that it is only available pre-colored.  I was looking forward to coloring all of those gorgeous tulips!  The sentiment is part of the stamp set as well.  I used a banner cut file on my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the layered banner.

Spring/Easter Hugs

This month at Crafty Gals Corner, our challenge is Easter or Spring.


I used Cuddle Buns Gets Squished from Creative Bug on the Loose for my project this week.  The fence is part of the image, so I decided to make a little scene.  I thought both of the background papers looked a lot like eggs after they have been dyed.  Ours always had great variations in the density of the dye.  The paper I used for the sky actually came out of a Bo Bunny pad called Cottontail Collection.  The grass paper came from a One Canoe Two pad that just happened to be laying on my counter.  What a happy coincidence!

Hey There!

This week at Creative Knockouts we have an anything goes challenge for you.


This is Spring Chick from Fabrika Fantasy.  He was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  He has silver Wink of Stella on his tricycle and clear on his goggles.  As I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with this card, I saw a paper pad from One Canoe Two that I recently purchased.  It is called Saturday Afternoon and I thought this paper was just perfect for this image!  A quick sentiment from Paper Smooches and it was done!
