CC248, Color Challenge

Today's color challenge is Always Artichoke, Barely Banana and Elegant Eggplant. This little angel by Mo's Digital Pencis was perfect for the challenge.

I used a Martha Stewart Punch, Nestabilities and Copics to color.

Hope you like it.

IC209, Poppy Patch

This is from Saturday's Inspiration Challenge on SCS.

Poppies by Flourishes and found at www.mark'sfinestestpapers.com. The awesome papers can also be found there. I love the Tomato Red and Speedy the Cat black linen papers.

CC247, Mike's birthday

Another color challenge from last week on SCS.

TLC250, Shipping Label Box

Now, this was a fun new technique on Monday. Check out SCS homepage for the tutorial. What an easy little project to make!

I used dollar stamps from Michael's for both my penquin and candy cane and sentiment. All colored with Copics.

White and one color

For this White Christmas challenge, we were allowed one color other that white. I chose gold. Again, thanks for the Cuttlebug folder!!

SC257

I am so behind in posting that I know these will be out of order, but here goes. This card was made for Sketch Challenge 257 on SCS. I used an old Stampin Up set for this card.

What would we do w/o those awesome Cuttlebug folders? In this case, I used the snowflakes. Some stickles added some "life" to the snow and ice.

StampinB 35, Acetate Windows

Nicole, a/k/a ButterflyEars, is hostess this week. She said "acetate windows" - so acetate windows it is.

I used a Whipper Snapper bird with a Hero Arts sentiment. The bird was colored with Copics.

First, I used my Coluzzle to cut two windows, then lightly traced around them for placement of my stamps. I then cut the outer circles - again with the Coluzzle. A ribbon was placed cutting a small slit on the fold of the designer paper. I used the cut-outs for decorations on the envelope. A piece of acetate was then glued to the inside of the card.

Now, let's see what type of window you can create with acetate. Don't forget to add StampinB to your keywords if you post on Split Coast Stampers.
