{DGDT} Up, up & Away


Happy Friday everyone! It's my weekly post for the Doodle Garden. How is it going on  your side? Ours is certainly off to a great start! We are doing some renos of our backyard finally, been a long, long time. We are sure looking forward to a new patio so we can chill during summer.

 

 
 
My little cutie is Aviator Boy that you can find in the store here. I love every single image of Jennifer's, they're SO SO cute!!!
 
I went with a masculine card, something I rarely create. I colored Aviator with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, fussy cut and popped him up with some foam dots. Papers are from October Afternoon Travel Girl and sentiment is from Up, UP & Away (The clouds too!)
 
Hope  you like it and remember we have our monthly challenge going on. Check it out!

{TGF}Happiness Lives Here


Hi it's me again. I just wanted to pop this in for the TGF Insta-Fun Contest and Stencil Challenge

Here's my card


I have colored Anya Sing (I think it's retired) with prismacolored pencils and gamsol. The background stamp is Happiness from The Local King and I stamped it with PTI Hibiscus Burst and Plum Pudding. I die cut the frame with MFT instaframe die. The blue background was done with a stencil and Bahama Blue from Memento. The sentiments are from the Mama Elephant We Click set.

My sketch comes from Sketch Saturday

Hope you like it and good luck!

{ASDT}Thank You


Hi and welcome to another challenge from Aud Sentiments. Our sponsor this week is StampArt Design by Kathryne And we have a bingo for our challenge where I used the last row. 


I colored Tulip Umbrella with prismacolored pencils and gamsol. The scalloped die cuts were cut with my cricut. Papers are from a single sheet but is double sided, gotta love this!

Flowers are from a punch where I added some sequins in middle. I also punched some leaves from some glittered dp.

I thought of my friend when i was designing this card.  She's very dear to me, been there in every step of my life.

My sketch comes from love to create.


Hope you like it and don't forget to visit my fellow teammates for more inspiration.

Never forget kindness

Hello and Happy Friday! Hope you have plans made for the weekend. Ours will be rainy and cold...SO NOT looking forward to it! My card is a pretty simple one for the KKS challenge where you have use oldie but goodie stamp. 



I have colored her with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I matted her on some kraft cardstock, the shape I cut from my Cricut and added some brown-orangey chalk around her to create a halo. I also doodled around the border. 

My sketch comes from YNS, which is my 2nd entry.

Girls just wanna have fun

Hi everyone and Happy Thursday! Today the weather is so mucky that I don't want to go out but I really should since I have to do some shopping... I wanted to play with Stampin Bella Uptown Girls Victoria and Juliette's Night out today. Sorry for the dark pic but I just couldn't make it brighter :-( I will upload a new one tomorrow.



They were colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol and a sky background was stamped in the back. I took the MFT Instaframe die and cut a frame for these girls. I rolled the frame in my dotted embossing floder first before hand swishing some red ink pad onto the dots. For the sentiment, I cut it with the MFT dimensional banner but cut off the pointy ends. 

My sketch comes from The House that built

Stampin Bella - Faux/Real Stitching
SSS Wed - Die Crazy

{HBDT} For a Special Lady/Mom

Hello and welcome to another bi-weekly challenge from Hobbybook. This week's challenge is to create something for a Mom or a special lady. 

Here is my card

What? Yes, it is a baby bear but as I was browsing through the images, an idea clicked. I thought why not make a card for a new mom and I saw this baby bear...I went AHA! I love how this turned out!

My sketch is from YNS sketch

You're my Super Dad


Happy Sunday! Happy Mother's Day to all the moms celebrating today! I know, I know, my card is not a Mother's Day card but we also have to thank these dads that take both roles.

I colored this awesome My Hero stamp with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I think I went a bit overboard with the color of the skin so pardon me, I'm still playing with my new gamsol here.


I want to enter this SPD challenge and also their CAS challenge (Hope it counts as CAS!).
