PIP Challenge 2532

 

 Sponsored by 

Sunbird Spark

 

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're being sponsored by Sunbird Spark (formerly Penguin Palace).  I would like to thank them for their sponsorship of this week's challenge. It's freaking hot here right now so, for my card, I went with a cooler fall theme and used the Happy Fall digital images.  

 

After printing my scene on Neenah white card stock, I colored everything using Ohuhu markers before layering and adding faux brads.  Once I adhered the layered image to the card, I stippled bits of several inks leftover from previous projects for a fall feel.  I then punched several leaves from scrap card stock and adhered those to the card.  The final touches were copper sequin leaves, sequin flowers and an orange bling to the "i" in pumpkin.

Lily Pond

 

 

 

Hello and welcome.  I'm guest designing this month over at the FarmQuest General Store Challenge where Anything Goes Farm and/or Country. For my card, I went with the country theme and created a card using the Lily Pond Grayscale Coloring Pages from Conjurer of Dreams. 

 

After coloring the image using Castle Arts Watercolor Pencils and a blender pencil, I lightly stippled Tim Holtz mowed lawn distress ink before layering and adding some faux brads and adhering it to a green card.  I then punched two different frogs using scraps before adhering them using Bearly Art glue.   The finishing touches were googlie eyes, stickles, bling and adding some eyes using a 3D glaze pen.  I then added my saying using a long retired Close To My Heart set - inside says "only small things with great love. - Mother Teresa.  I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Ooh La La

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a fun ATC made using Conjurer of Dreams set called Ooh La La. I LOVE this set of 4 corsets - sexy enough to be risque but still "clean" enough to keep it PG13. LOL  After combining the corset digitally with the following COD sets: Pink Silk, Black Silk, Blue Silk and the black Photo Corners; I printed it out onto Neenah white card stock before adhering to a black scrap.  I then pulled out some autumn and thunderstorm gems, added those to the ATC and finished it off.  

 

I'm happy with how it turned out especially since my husband wasn't doing too good the other day.  It's been one step forward and three steps back for him lately.  Plus my ever present migraines adding to the mix with the summertime heat.  Ugh!

Better At The Beach

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card made using the new Beach Huts stamp set from Pajama Crafter Stamps. After stamping the images in memento tuxedo black ink, I colored everything using my Ohuhu markers before stippling some Tim Holtz distress inks around them and to fill in the white spaces before layering and adding some faux brads.  I then dug out a seagull set of dies I had just received and die cut several seagulls from white scraps.  After adding some going grey/basic grey ink, I adhered them to the card using pop dots.  I then added my border and some bling to finish my card off.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Hello and welcome. Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by Sheepski Designs.  I would like to thank Andrea for her sponsorship.  My card today uses the Mindy Christmas image and reminds me so much of my cats at Christmas time.  After printing the image on hammermill white card stock, I colored it using Copic markers before stamping a long retired Stampin Up saying.  A few clear gems finish the card off.

Loon At The Lake

 

Hello and welcome.   Today I'd like to share a card made using an image I've had colored for some time, just hadn't finished it to a card.  The Loon Scene is from Whimsy Stamps and is just beautiful.  I see so many uses for this stamp.

 

The main image is stamped onto Neenah white card stock and colored using Castle Arts colored pencils and a blender pencil.  I then lightly stippled some tumbled glass distress ink before adding some silver photo corners I've had for years, and I mean years.  The card was made by stippling broken china distress ink over a slim line lily pad stencil from Picket Fence Studios.  Once I had the layered image added to my card, I added some bling, ribbon, diamond ice stickles and a small punched frog to place on one of the lily pads.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
