Steam Punk Sherri Baldy image used for Color It Create It Show It Off Challenge--ATG

Never be afraid to try something new.  For me, I've always been in awe of Steampunk images but just never knew where to start with the transformation!  With some guidance from a friend, thanks Cindy!, I started on my journey using Img 131 from Sherri Baldy~  It can be found here .  I used it to REMIND everyone that there is an ATG Challenge still going on over at Color It Create It Show It Off.  You've Got to come join in the Fun we're having! 

I've been holding on to this awesome gear paper for just this moment-in golds and blacks.  After coloring him with copics, I used glossy accents on the watch faces and his goggles.  I added some cardstock gears and topped them off with metal Tim Holtz gears.  A rub-on watch in the corner finishes off the card front.  On the inside, I had this grungy classy brown letter paper, added a gear and voila!  Perfect!
We have great fun with our Challenges here and get so inspired with your creations so please come and play with us!!

Reminder~ there's a ATG Challenge over at Color It Create It Show It Off!!

 This was such an awesome image to color and create a card with for the unique group:  Color It Create It Show It Off.  We love using Sherri Baldy images and this one is officially called Img 957  and I used Tim Holtzs' Peeled Paint Distress Ink to edge it. 
I just love this hot pink color I used for the daisy and the image gave me a chance to work with this curly hair that is such fun!!  I was so lucky that in my stash, I found the perfect glitter embossed paper in kind-of a 60's/70's style vibe.  Thought the combination of flowers helped to soften it a bit.  On the inside (I always make them complete), I used more of the retro paper and then matched the label die cut color to that paper and used a sentiment stamp from KKS to finish it.
This is a reminder that we still have a Challenge going on til the end of the month over at Color It Create It Show It Off.  Come over and join us and let us see your creations-we LOVE to be inspired!  It's always ATG at our challenges- just use your imagination!

Squigglefly has new images launching this week-Pam's Pumpkins

Well ONE OF THESE DAYS the days will get cooler and the leaves will start turning colors and Autumn will be upon us.  I love this time of year and look forward to setting all my metal pumpkins staked all around my yard.
In the meantime, Pammie Lehto, one of the artists at Squigglefly, has come up with this cute image called Pam's Pumpkins.  

Using a mat of Kraft paper, I mounted an embossed leaf paper with veins of foil on it.  I used this wide Ombre like sheer ribbon to wrap around the card front and for the bow. I tied this neat burlap leaf shape that was mounted on a very stiff board around the ribbon before placing the bow. The stick pin is by Bella Blvd!  The inside has a leaf print liner and an embossed sentiment card from my LSS, roughed up by my Tim Holtz distresser.
Hope you like this~be sure you take a look in the Squigglefly Store for some new ideas.  Join in on our challenges each week to win a free image!
