All Dressed Up Stamps Challenge-ATG

Over at All Dressed Up Stamps, we have a month long challenge--Anything Goes w/ an ADU image.  Great prizes for the winners!  You have until March 14th to get your creation in for review-We can't wait to see your Beauties!

The image I chose to use on the DT is called "Home Sweet Home" and could apply to many situations~ Quarantined at home, staying home as a refuge, New home buying, Glad for the birds and flowers that are coming soon.  I will be glad to get out and about in our flower and vegetable gardens and am thankful every day that we live in the country where that's possible!

After coloring with Copics, I mounted the picture on pink polka dotted paper,placed another piece angled over the distressed wood paper underneath-I love the blues and yellows together. I added a small 2 loop bow made on a fork and 2 lace accents from my stash.  On the inside, I used a perky blue & white dotted paper and used a sentiment stamp again from my stash.

Come on over and join all of us for the Challenge, There's lots of free images in the store-AND you will love the choice of images when you win!  And we want to get inspired!!  Can't wait to see your entry~

 

Having a Barefoot Day Out with a Sherri Baldy Image!

Good morning everyone!

I want to share an image that just makes me smile-she's called

Bearfoot Pta Day Out

I wanted 2 different looks on this scene: One was I wanted her to 

be standing on some pebbles then Two, I was going for a different

background so I worked with doing random dots in different

strength dots.  Hope you like the effects! 

A Day for Daisies is sponsoring "Things With Wings" at Come and Get It Challenge!

 I had such fun with this Come And Get It challenge and the image I used from A Day for Daisies is titled "Birds for Bree".  The images at this site are so whimsical and "clean/elegant" that it makes them very easy to color!  The THEME for this Challenge is Things With Wings!
I kept the coloring simple, Summery.  I love blue birds and gave their wings a coating of blue Wink of Stella.  I matted the image with kraft and then peach dp.  The Stamp is from a great set at KKS and says "You Lift Me Up". I had this Great paper with bird houses, birds, nests, and tree limbs all over it and placed her matted image on a branch so to speak.  I used this unique Vine "ribbon" from my local SBS- it's made from woven material with veined leaves-glued down with Zig 2-way glue.  On that ribbon, I placed several nature embellies: Owl, dragonfly and ladybug--see if you spot them!  On the inside liner, I used the peach speckled paper and then a draft label die cut from my stash.  The stamp on the inside page is a friendship stamp from my collection.  We hope that you will want to stop in and play with us for this Challenge.  We can't wait to see your creations!

A Day For Daisies is sponsoring Craft Your Passion--Anything Goes!

 It's A DAY FOR DAISIES here on this Monday as they are our sponsor this week at Craft Your Passion!  Please join in our Challenge and the winner will win a $12 Gift Card to spend in their Store!
The gorgeous image that I'm using today is called Pearls in my Hair and I love the simplicity of the image but it has so many intricate parts!  I knew I had the perfect paper for it with little blue birds on it.  On the inside, I've got a complimentary blue mat just waiting for a special sentiment.  Unusual for me not to "finish" it up when making it but, there were so many possibilities/events to use it for, I couldn't decide.  I also used some white die cuts from a friend with a button in the center.
Can't wait to see what you have to show us at the Challenge-we get so inspired by your creations!  See you there!
