This month challenge is anything goes or the color from the image or you can do both hence mixed it up.
I choose to go with the anything goes and pulled out this bookish themed stamp set. I am a huge fan of big books so i had fun with this one. I colored the image with copics and then used a notebook border punch, the design paper is from carta bella well traveled paper pad. As a bookish person i traveled a lot of places at least in my imagination.
Every month My Favorite Things host a birthday card making challenge to help your stash of brithday cards grow hence the birthday project. This month theme is to include animals on your birthday themed card.
I choose to use the Circus Set from My Favorite things and created a circus themed birthday card.
This is the sketch this week at My Favorite things number 414
This is my take on the sketch i used several mft products on this card. First i used distress inks for the soft sky behind the birch trees, then i water colored the owls, then i die cut the mountains and the frame and finished it off with a heat embossed sentiment from the owl set.
I am entering this in to the Simon says let it snow challenge. Image is from Elisabeth bell, image is colored with copics. Sentiment is from create with tlc. Image cut out with mft dienamics as well as the sentiment. I used my copic air brush for the dusting of pink on the sentiment and around the image. I double stacked some snowflake dies from mft and finished off the card with some dew drops and some nuvo drops.
This is the sketch for MFTWSC411
This is my interpretation of the sketch. I enlarged the smaller panel and flipped the card on its side. I kept the sentiment toward the top. First i used a snowflake frame embossing folder on the bottom panel. Then i used tim holtz alcohol ink cardstock and tim holtz alcohol inks in patina, wild plum and purple twilight to create the winter sky behind the penguins. They are blended with the blending solution to get them to swirl together. I then stamped the sweet holiday penguins and colored them in copic markers. Sentiment is from There She goes stamp compnay. I used the snowflake drift dienmaics in glitter cardstock. Sentiment is heat embossed in gold embossing powder. To finish off the card i added some shimmer nuvo drops.
This is the challenge for the month of November with Sugar Pea Designs.
For their challenge you have some choices, you can follow the sketch, follow the color choice or you can do both.
For my entry i choose to follow the sketch. I used this adorable penguin getting ready to play golf set. My image is colored with prisma color pencils, sentimet is heat emobossed in silver on vellum.
These are the colors to use for this week My Favorite Things color challenge.
For this card these are the supplies and prisma colors i used to assemble the card. I started out with a kraft card base at 4.25 x 5.5. I then cut mats of brown and red and then used the Christmas tree print with the challenge colors from Bo Bunny silver and gold paper pad. My image is Pure Innocence Nice List and cut out with the matching die. I stamped her in black staz on and colored her with the following prisma color pencils.
Skin – White, Eggshell, Light Peach, Peach and Burnt Ochre
Dress- Pale Sage, Spring Green, Sap Green Light, Kelly Green, and Prussian Green.
I added some holiday shaped eyelets in Christmas trees and a candy cane on the sentiment strip that was stamped in versa mark and then heated with white embossing powder.
