Sassy Cheryl's Challenge--Snowmen and Die Cuts

Happy Tuesday, time for another Sassy Cheryl's Challenge and our hostess is once again the super talented Judy who always comes up with the most fun challenges doesn't she?!?  Her theme is Snowmen and Die Cuts, and I call it "Snowmen to Die For"!!! Here is my card using Three Funny Snowmen :

 OMG aren't these the cutest snowmen you ever saw?????I love the expression on all of Sassy Cheryl's images...they are just so fun.  The trees are some that my wonderful friend, Peggy Marsh, let me cut using her Sizzix die when I got the pleasure of spending a wonderful crafting week-end at her house last year.  What a wonderful reminder this card making was of that week-end :)

The image was colored with copic markers and then so you could see the trees I fussy cut the top part of the snowmen images so you could see the dp the trees were cut from.
I also punched snowflakes with a MS punch, so add to my snowman scene.  I added the cute ticket sentiment which fit the scene perfectly.  I did airbrush the sky and ground :)

This is the final Challenge for 2011 so take your time and play along,  It will be a two week Challenge and the random winner will be chosen at the end of the two weeks. Don't hold me to that,  go by what Peggy says on the Challenge blog :)

Be sure to stop by and see what the rest of the DT has to show you over on the Challenge Blog and play along, can't wait to see all of your snowman creations.  Have I mentioned lately I collect snowmen?!?

I absolutely love the new line of kids Sassy Cheryl has created this year and can't wait to see what new additions we will have for the  new year.  Thanks for the Wonderful year of wonderful images to play with Cheryl. If you haven't seen them stop by the store and check them out.

Have a wonderful creative day, Thanks for stopping by.

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge--The Great Outdoors

The Hostess this week for the Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge is one of the very talented Design Team Leaders, Dorcas who chose the theme, The Great Outdoors.  You all know me and know I always tend to stretch the boundaries of the theme just a tad but I think this little sweetie named Snow Day is perfect:

The image was colored with copic markers.  I love the colors are so soft and can be either a little girl or boy but I am thinking with the ruffles of fur it is a girl.  She is having so much fun playing in the new fallen snow....Kids really enjoy it much more than us older folk!!!

I loved this Bo Bunny Blitzen dp with the sign and swirls of snow and snowflakes it was just made for this little sweetie.  I cut the Let It Snow letters with my cricut.
I was in a hurry after having company all week-end to get my card completed and had the image all colored and decided to add some stickles to the cuffs, after adding it to one I didn't like it.  When I went to wipe it off, I used a cloth with blender fluid on it....yeah I know, duh,.............so I cut out the image and colored over the grey smear with white gel pen...if you can find the smear I will send you the card.....  So this little darling is popped up on sponge mounting squares.  The snow is my styrofoam snow  and the snow on the sign is stickles. 

Be sure to stop by the Challenge blog and see what the rest of the DT has created for the Great Outdoors, I can 't wait to see.  A random winner is always chosen from the entrants in the weekly challenge and the winner is given a Gift Certificate to Mo's Store, what a great present to yourself that would be huh!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful creative day!!!

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge--Vintage

Okay, I was really in my element with Paola's Challenge  for Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge this week.  The challenge was to add a Vintage touch to your card or project.  Well, Mo's Digital Pencil images often lend themselves well to a touch of vintage or distressing. What do you think of Who Me?:

Nothing says Vintage like Tim Holtz so I used several Tim Holtz elements on my card.  The image was colored with copic markers and sponged with distress ink while still in the spellbinder die. 

The Tim Holtz Timeworks mask was used to add a large clock on the background layer. It was also overstamped with my favorite vintage element a cracked paint stamp.( You can double click the photo to see the details)
The game spinner, photo film strip, and the Play ticket are all Tim Holtz elements.  The 3 buttons in the lower left corner are from my Grandpa's antique button collection.

Because it is a guy card I didn't add a ribbon but couldn't resist the little twill tab on the right side of the main image.

Hope you liked my Vintage project and don't forget to stop by the rest of the DT to view their projects and leave them a little love.

Have a great day.  Be sure to stop by the Mo's Digital Pencil Store and Blog to see what is new...there are some really awesome new images. 

Thanks for stopping by.
