Monochromatic Butterfly

I am back today playing along in a monochromatic challenge at Splitcoast.  This year we have seen a huge number of butterflies here in Southern Ontario, Canada which is early for us.  The reports say that because of our unseasonably warm weather, the butterflies have migrated north early.  Then it snowed this week...sure hope it hasn't devasted the butterfly population.  Time will tell.

Anyways, the butterfly on my card is the new Soft Wings from Penny Black.  I stamped it, coloured it with Copics then added Glossy Accents to highlight some of the areas.  I added the score line and the sentiment from Technique Tuesday.

I really appreciate you popping in to take a look today.  The weekend is almost here.

Geek is Chic

So here you go....this is the card I made for two challenges.  The first one can be seen here at CAS-ual Fridays....it is a sketch.  I am also playing along with the challenge at Moxie Fab....to create a card incorporating spectacles or eyeglasses.  I stamped the cute images from  Imaginisce onto circles and mounted as the sketch shows.  After I was all done, I noticed that I had flipped the elements in the sketch...oops, but went with it anyways.

Thanks for coming by and taking a look.
supplies:  stamps; Imaginisce/ twine

Monkey Hooray!

I just feel like I have lost my 'mojo' these days but I wanted to play along with the challenge at Splitcoast which was to create a card using 'At the Zoo' as the theme.  Here is what I came up with.  The monkey is a digi image from Melonhedz.  I coloured him with Copics and cut him out.  Mounted him onto the stripes with a piece of twine behind as the vine.  The leaves are from Daisy Bucket and the sentiment is from Penny Black. 

Thanks so very much for coming by and taking a look.

 I wanted to play along with the FS challenge today at Splitcoast.  Here is what I came up with.  The bkg. is repeat stamping from the set called Sweet Wishes and the cat (isn't he so cute!) is called Forever Smile.  The die cut he is pop dotted onto is from Spellbinders. 

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.  Sure hope you have a great week.

Supplies:  stamps;  Forever Smile...#4251K, Sweet Wishes....#30-104/ Spellbinders/Copics

Congratulations

Here is a card I made using stamps from Penny Black.  I used the Wishes set to stamp the bkg. first then again in the blue then I punched one out and pop dotted it.  I was pleased with the effect.  I added the sentiment from the Gratitude sentiment set and the half pearls.

Thanks so much for popping in and taking a look.
