Super Cute Digital Images--Sassy Cheryl's

WooHoo, I am always happy when I find another super cute stamp company that has images that are sooo fun to color. I have the worst licensed enabler friends.  Peggy you know I am talking about you GF.   Sassy Cheryl's digital stamps are amazingly adorable and so reasonably priced... well, look what I am talking about:

This image is called Love's Healing Hands and there is a girl version of this image as well.  I'm sure I'll be showing you that one in the near future :)
I used copic markers  and a white gel pen on the main image.  I always love to add fur to bears and bunnies :)
The main image was cut out after coloring with a Spellbinder Label die and I sponged the outside edge before I removed it from the die leaving the nice white border.
The plaid die is the SU TopNote Die .  I thought this gave the image a real masculine look.  I sponged the edges of the card base and stamped my love you sentiiment.  Three geometric buttons and my first Sassy Cheryl's card is complete.

Be sure that you check out her store and her Paper Craft Planet group which is just getting started. 
Cheryl is currently holding a DT call which will end on February 26 so check her blog for details if you are interested.

For those of you who have not visited my blog before, if you double click on my photos you can see the cards up close and personal :)

Thanks for stopping by, see you later with another project.

Happy Coloring

Cute Card Thursday Challenge

This week Phindy's Place is sponsoring the Cute Card Thursday Challenge.  To be honest I had colored this wonderful Mr. Brown goes shopping image and didn't know what I was going to do with it for sure.  When I picked out my dp and papers it qualified for the Dots and Spots theme for the Challenge.  Okay, added bonus:

Can't you just see Mr. Brown thinking of all the excuses that he can think of why he NEEDS this rusting relic?  Ah, the memories of a first love...a boy and his truck.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out all the wonderful images at Phindy's Place on Paper Craft Planet.

Oh, Mannnn! Wednesday's Child, Mo's Digital Pencil

Mo of Mo's Digital Pencil created a series of girls a few months ago with the Days of the Week Birthday sayings...  you know, Monday's Child is......  Now she is creating the boys.  This is Wednesday's Child:

If you are a mother, grandmother, aunt or friend you have seen this look!  Little brother has run his dump truck into the perfect high tower of blocks that Older brother has worked hard to build.  It is usually followed by MahhhhM!!!!

Wednesday's Child was colored with copic markers.  The outside border of the image was airbrushed with copic markers and my copic airbrush system.  The main image was mounted on a textured blue cs from my LSS that I had punched a kind of masculine border with a MS border punch.
The patterned dp was from a card making kit that I have had forever but thought the colors worked perfectly for the blue and kraft colors I had chosen.  I cut it at a diagonal for a little added interest.
The red band was crossed with narrow beige ribbon with red threads purchased at Michael's.
The little dump truck was actually yellow and black but I wanted it to coordinate with the reds and blues so I sprayed it with R29 copic marker using my airbrush system.
The three red assorted buttons were added to the upper left corner and the truck path was created with my cutterbug single row piercing thingie.  ( very technical term for the tool huh, LOL).

If you haven't already you still have time to join the Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge this week which is to make a card using shades of gray.  You have until Wednesday to submit your creation.

Thanks for stopping by.  It seems sooo good to be back in the swing of creating after a rather crazy stressful month.
Happy Coloring!!!
