TPE Challenge #54 Ribbon/DCRU Challenge #26/Flutter By Wed.#97/CCT#100 Metal Mania/Quixotic #14 Something for Mum

HI Everyone,
I hope this finds you all doing better than I have been.  If it wasn't bad enough that I had the whole teeth thing to deal with, last night my belly started up & has not stop.  So I'm just  getting this in under the wire.
 My Entry this week:
The Image that I used is hand sketched by me. It is based  on a Diane Duda/ Sugar Nellie Stamp. I have the stamp ordered but it has not had time to get to me.  So I thought that I would try my hand at sketching it.  I hope that I have not broken any of the copy laws. Any way I  used mixed mediums Copic Markers & Prismacolor Pencils. I wanted to be able to remove the image so if someone wanted to frame it they could.  I used Photo Corners & then I used acetate to cover.  I used 3 BoBuny I Candy brads from the Melody collection.  The paper, ribbon & button are all extras that I had around the house.  
Thank You for considering my Entry.
Happy Weekend to Everyone!

Sassy DCRU #25 Love Challenge / CCT #99 Name of Love/ TPE Challenge #53

Hi Everyone.
 I hope that this finds all doing well.  I'm recovering form having 2 teeth pulled ,2 filled & getting my first  partial.  This all happened on Thur. So I'm moving a little slow.
 Now for my entry.
The orig. Digi Stamp is from Sassy Studio (Baby it's Cold Outside) I had Knitted & Felted this hat so when I saw this stamp on Lori Boyd's site I had to have it.  I have made a few changes.  I changed the Hat,scarf & Hair.
Paper I used is from DCRU Feb. Kit along with the buttons.  I can't believe that the colors I used match the Feb. Kit so well.
I used Copic markers & Prismacolor Pencils to color 
Cuttlebug to emboss card base & misc. ribbon
And since we have been having soooo much snow I had to add just a touch of snow.
Well, my teeth are starting to hurt so I had better go.
Thank You for considering my Entry.
Have a good day.

C4C #23 Be My Valentine Challenge

Hi Everyone,
While home(Mom & Dad's) I got back into my Knitting.  I was in one of the yarn shops & it was filled with Sheep.  They were hiding every where.  The shop owner was very kind & threw in some extras.  So I wanted to send her a Thank You Card.  So when I got home(Savannah's & My Home in Ky.) I went  sheep hunting & found this little one at Pink Petticoat. I love the cards that she does.  They remind me of Fondunt(not sure that I spelled that right)you know the stuff that they put over wedding cakes. Any who, when I printed the image I did the one with Valentine by mistake so I thought it would work well for my hubby. Since we will not be together for Valentines Day I went with the Thinking of (Ewe).  Him being Marine Corps. I'm sure the first thing he will say "What did you call me????? Do I look like a female sheep ect." For those of you (not Ewe) who don't get that.  It's a line from the movie "An Officer And A Gentelman" .  Well, I have gone on long enough.  Better get to my entry for this weeks challenge.  Thank you for stopping by for a visit.
BJ
My Entry:
Image is from Pink Petticoat :Image Stamps with Heart
I think this is the smallest image that I have done.  Coloring was easier than I thought.
I used Copics:C1 to highlight the sheep, Face & Ears R20,YR00 & E93. Heart Flower R32&R20
Paper:Bazill Basics Blk Dotted Swiss,rest of the cardstock is no name that I got at a local shop.  Spellbinders Nest. #9 (I think? If not 9 then #5) Cricut: Thinking Of You (I cut off the You)George & Basic Shapes. Cuttlebug Swirls folder. Stickles Star Dust for the swirls on the sheep. Ribbon is from a box I got like you find at the store when they try to make it look special to go along with that special price.
Thank You for considering my entry.  Have a nice week!!!

TPE Challenge #45 Winter & or Christmas


Hi Everyone,


Hope this finds you all doing well. Not too many more days left for Christmas Shopping.
My entry is simple (for me) this is one of my Christmas cards that will be going into the mail. This is the first time that I have worked with Acetate. Learned alot. First thing was that my stamp stuck to the Acetate. So when I removed the stamp it blured my image. But that was ok for this project, because it gave the image the look of going sooo fast that she was a blurrrr. But then when I started coloring in I lost that. And coloring was a trip. But I think that all in all it turned out.

Here are the details for my Entry: Stamp Image from http://www.therubbercafe.com/ K-1159 Winter Fun Labrador & Kitty (I revisied the dog's tail to make it look more like my little Savannah) also from the rubber cafe is the snow (flowersoft I think is what it's called) Melissa can help you out with questions & the Acetate I got from the rubber cafe,notecards by amuse http://www.amuseartstamps.com/ Sky Blue Band, Copic markers, Background trees are also from amuse art stamps as is the Merry Christmas stamp.,ribbon & stars misc. items I had. Almost forgot the stickles in Star Dust.

Thank You for considering my entry.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday #27


Hi Everyone,
Hope this finds all doing well & staying warm. I don't understand somedays I can get a good picture then others it just doen't happen no matter how many times I take them.  This is one of those not so good days.  I hope you can make this out.
This entry has a bit of a twist to it changeable tags. Take a look.
We have a knitter in the family so I thought that this would be a good card for her.  Since the only thing that says Christmas in this card is the Merry Christmas tag.  So I wanted her to be able to keep her card out so I came up with this.
My Entry: Stamping Bella image & Copic markers the rest are scraps that I could use.
Happy Holidays to Everyone & Thank You for considering my entry.

Quixotic Challenge #5 Charming


Hi Everyone,
This is my first entry for Quixotic.  As some of you know I have been in San Diego, Ca. visiting my husband while he was there working.  Well, I of course had to make him a Christmas card before he went back to Okinawa.  It doesn't look like we will be spending Christmas or New Years together.  So this is what I was doing the night before I left to come back home.  This is my husbands plane.  He had to help me with the colors to use since I could not figure out what some of the parts of the plane were.
I used the Herky Bird digi from Sunshine Stamps, Copic markers,  Since most branches of the military have the KC-130 I did this one in the Marine Corps color.Ribbon Charm from Memories Maker,misc. ribbon & card stock.  At Christmas they paint one of the plane's nose red and someone dress as Santa and they taxi out for the kids.  Year before last I think it was my husband (Nick go figure)was Santa.
Well, that is about it.  I would like to Thank you for considering my entry.
Thank You,
BJ
