Love Snakes to You!

I have used this sweet digital image entitled "Love Snakes" by Doodle Pantry to introduce you to the new releases at Doodle Pantry this week! I have also used one of the sentiments that come with this set. I also have great news for you all...this set is yours for free with any order that you make right now at Doodle Pantry! How's that for starting your year off right?!
I printed the colored image and sentiment directly to my card stock. I then added dp to the top and bottom section of the card. The row of lace and pearls above and below the image are from Memory Makers. I then added pearl embellishments, cut the top edge with wavy scissors and added Copic marker along the top and bottom edges of card. I think it took longer for me to figure out the design of this card then it did to put it all together. I really need to start using the design layouts challenges that are everywhere in blog land...
Check out all of my DT members blogs (listed on my right side bar) for more inspiration and sneek peaks at all of the new images.
Happy New Year everyone!

Old Year/New Year Challenge

This is my first card done as a design team member for Jellypark Challenges. I used the Space rocket image to create with. The challenge is "something new, something old". My image is new and the papers are all old. The planet, stars and sentiment are from an old stamp set that I have had for a couple of years. The yellow frame around the border is actually from an old greeting card that I cut into the frame using a Nestibility die.
Go on over to Jellypark Challenges and see all of the wonderful creations created by the design team and then try your hand a the challenge. It's a great way to use up some of those dodads that have been hanging around on your craft table for a while!
I am also entering this into the following challenges:
Card Crafter's Circle Challenge #3 - Anything Goes
Delicious Doodles - Anything Goes
Fashionista Friday #98 - Use Up Your Stash
Fun With Shapes & More - Use a die cut/punch

Merry Christmas

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and a blessed Christmas!

Warm Winter Wishes

Another day closer to Christmas and another creation using images by Doodle Pantry! This time I combined the images from Christmas Wreath and Quirky Penguin) using the already colored images from those sets. I used the partial wreath from the wreath set and just played with it in photoshop until it looked like a crown on the penguins head! I love that the images come both as outline and colored so you can decide which to use. I am counting down to Christmas so I used the colored images for my card. So much quicker! Laurie has amazing images and great prices so be sure to check her store out. You will be happy you did!

A very Merry

Hi everyone! Well there are only 6 days until Christmas and I am not ready yet! How are you doing with preparations for the big day? I still have more cookies to bake, more gifts to shop for and then wrap and lots of other things to do!
Today's card was made using images that are already colored from Doodle Pantry. The colored images make it so easy to finish a card when you have lots to do and not a lot of time! I combined two different images ( Christmas Wreath and Quirky Donkey) by putting a garland wreath around this sweet donkey's neck.
Check out all of the wonderful images at Doodle Pantry and have a great day!

Naughty...or Nice?

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a card I made using a sentiment from Create with TLC and a House Mouse stamp. What box should he check for you?! Haha!
I used my Elegant Edges cartridge to cut out the shape for the sentiment. Some kraft paper and green card stock to back it with a little distress ink around the edges. My papers are from DCWV. The ribbon was recycled from my xmas ribbons last year. (It was too pretty to throw out!). My image was colored with Copic markers and I yused some glitter glue for the white part of the santa hat. All in all...it probably took me longer to figure out the design then to create it! (Isn't that always the way it is?)
