My Wednesday addiction--SCS Sketch Challenge LOL

I have found I really love playing the SCS Sketch Challenge, it is usually a challenge and I need lots of help with my card creation.. I used a wonderful fall image from Karen's Doodles, it is a freebie this week and it is gorgeous:

This was so much fun to color and I enjoyed the sketch for this week at SplitCoast Stampers.  I tied the ribbon where I could have added a sentiment and added one of my favorite paper flowers that only look hard to make,  I have gotten pretty fast at making them from scratch,  LOL  I R trainable!!!
I love the colors of fall and pumpkins are fun to color so this was a very relaxing card to make. I probably could have done a little more with the lower beige strip which I thought about punching a border but I still wanted the image to be the main focal point of the card.
I don't have too many things going on this week so I thought it would be fun to play the challenge again.  3 weeks in a row, I am on a roll.

Thanks for stopping by, I always appreciate your visits and comments.

Have a great day!!

Father's Day Challenge--Karen's Doodles

Well, I played the Karen's Doodles Challenge a few weeks ago and I was one of the random drawing winner of two images.  This is one of them and I decided to use it to play in another of the US Challenges which is a Father's Day theme:

I always think a Thank you card is appropriate for a Father's Day Card as we are really thanking our father's for all they have done for us.  I lost my father when I was 18 so it is a celebration I use for my husband and our 4 children.

Isn't this just the cutest image.  I don't know which I like more the Bigsby or Herbert the Turtle so I chose an image with both. 

You should play along, it is fun.  This was a sketch challenge and I flipped the sketch to fit my image.  I always seem to do that :)

Have a great day. 

Thanks for stopping by

One more Karen's Doodles Card

I have one more Karen's Doodles card to show you, I really like to color flowers and this was a really cute free image I picked up the other night when I was on her PCP group. 

Wouldnt this be a cute image to make a card for a friend, or someone who needs cheering up or just to say...It's finally spring!!!
I had a lot of fun coloring this darling image with copic markers.  I did my favorite gradient technique on the butterfly and a modified tone on tone gradient on the tulips.
I am working fast and furious on DT cards this week and week-end so most of what I have been doing I can't show you yet.
If you are a fan of Riley and Company sneak peeks for the new release start Monday, a new challenge on Tuesday , a Blog Hop on Wednesaday and the Release on Thursday. 
Tuesday is also Sassy Cheryl's Challenge Day and Thursday is Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge Day so an exciting week with LOTS of new awesome stamps and images for you to want and need.

Thanks for stopping by I appreciate each and every one of you.

Take time to color, it's cheaper than therapy!!!
