Miss Anya card

Ok so I just got these awesome stamps from The Greeting Farm http://www.thegreetingfarm.com/ for my prize in their Stamp A Day Giveaway. I couldnt wait to try them. Then I saw this weeks sketch on CPS Card Sketches http://cardpositioningsystems.blogspot.com/ and I knew they would go together perfectly. This is my first time entering the CPS challenge but I loved the sketch and I am very happy with the result .

To make the card I used some locally made cardstock along with PP that I received in a swap. The image is from the Miss Anya Dressy set. I stamped her up twice and tucked the first image under the PP and then I cut out the skirt and legs and on the second image and layered that on top of the PP. I finished it off with some crystal jems I got from a friend.



Thanks for looking and hope you all are having a wonderful day.

Color Throwdown #56

Hey there. Wow two posts in one day. That must be a record for me. LOL.

Well the next challenge card is for the Color Throwdown #56 challenge over at http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/ . The colors we are to use are SU colors Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede, and Dusty Durango. Well since I dont have any of those so I improvised as best as I could with what I had and I think it turned out pretty good. I used some mat papers from a Making Memories pad I had and a new PP that I got recently. The image is Tender Hug by Penny Black. I colored the image with Bics and Copics. I then added the gems for a little something extra. I used a sketch from a challenge in Card Makin Mommas over on Cafemom.

I really hope that this will count since I don't have the exact colors and I just noticed that the teal blue matting barely shows up. I had fun with this challenge regardless.


Bellarific Friday Challenge

Well its another week and another Bella challenge. This time I was also doing a card kit swap on Cafemom and so I used my kit to make the challenge card since the kit included a huggabug image. I am pretty pleased with the way it turned out too. I used everything given to me in my card kit and I used my Bic mark-its and Copics to color her in. I also used Stickles for the wings.

Oh and by the way I won $10 in Bella Bucks after the last challenge. YAY for new supply $$.

Farm Fresh Friday Challenge

So I finally got up the nerve to try my hand at a challenge over at the Greeting Farm blog http://splendidstamping.blogspot.com/and I am soooo happy with the result. I am keeping my fingers crossed for a win here since I really LOVE the stamps set that is the prize.

I used a Miss Anya image that I got in a swap from a group on Cafemom. I got the papers on a recent trip to Salem where I went and checked out a couple new supply shops. I colored Anya with Bic Mark-its and Copics.
