Sassy Cheryl's Challenge--Yep it's Tuesday!!!

Are you ready for an awesome Sassy Cheryl 'Challenge as chosen by our wonderful hostess Kim. Kim chose the Theme to make a Tent card with your favorite embellishments: 

I haven't made a tent card for ages, so this was super fun for me.  It is so easy to make, just make the fold on top and not on the side..walla a Tent card!!!

This adorable Hope Lamb image was so fun to color. I though a Black Lamb would need more hope than a white lamb LOL.  I used a nice blue cs for my card base and cut the Sheep image with a spellbinder die and airbrushed the sky and grass before removing it from the die.  Because with digis I always color the image and then cut it out, I always have a fear I am going to go crazy with the airbrush or have a spastic moment and ruin the image.....hasn't happened yet,,but one day I know it will :)

I really wanted to use this awesome red and white polka dot ribbon so I made it work by coloring the HOPE in red and putting polka dots on it... :)

The bottom layer is a new adhesive K & CO matte pack I just got.  I thought the top white was a little too stark so I used a fine tip marker to add dots around the border and main image label.

Can't wait to see what you guys all create and be sure to check out the DT cards and most importantly check out the new images in Sassy Cheryl;s Store,  always adds to the store on Challenge day.

Always glad to see you here.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Cute!!! I love these sheep. Tell me, do you use your airbrush often? I just took the Copic class and until then I never really cared about the airbrush. Now...well, I'm undecided!
