Spotlighting

I'm not talking about hunting, I'm talking about spotlighting a part of an image on a card. I used an image from PaperWorks Co. It's such a cute ducky image.



I used some fantastic paper I got at my LSS. I can't remember the company though. I stamped my image with momento ink and colored the spotlighted section with my copics. I love the color scheme--sorta fall type colors.

I'm entering it into the sketch challenge found here at Paperworks Co. You should check out Paperworks Co. I see that they are having a release of some new images, and have started their sneak peeks. They look great!

Magnolia Strikes Again

I'm big into coloring with copics these days, and the Magnolia stamps really lend themselves well to that.



I'm not sure what Tilda this is, but it was great fun coloring her. To enter a couple of challenges, I could only use white and lilac....hence the purple look. I added some purple stickles to the flower, but am really not pleased with how that turned out. The flower seemed to have lost some of it's definition. Oh well--things don't always turn out perfect, do they?! I used my copics to color the lace so it would match the purple color I had chosen. Isn't that cool how versatile copics can be? I added some flowers and pearls for embellishments, and left it at that.

I'm entering this card into the Crafty Creations Challenge #83, and the Totally Tilda Challenge #4.

See you soon!

Lacey Pearly Gillian

I had a great weekend. I got tons of things done, including cards! Woohoo! I always feel so much better after I get to creating.

I created this card for the a couple of challenges. I fell in love with this image as soon as I saw it. Her name is Gillian and isn't she a doll? I think she has tons of attitude. I'm sure that's what draws me to her.



I used my copics to color her up. I'm still experimenting with coloring skin tones, and I wanted to try a darker skin tone this week. I used alot of pearls, and some stickles. Of course, I used my nestabilities too. I also sprayed the background with marshmallow glimmer mist, for that little sparkle.

I'm entering her into the Prairie Fairy Fun Fridays Pearls and Lace Challenge, the Color Me Copic Curly Hair Challenge, and Mojo Monday 155.

Cowgirl's Sunday Stamp'en Challenge

Today's the day! It's such an exciting day over at Cowgirl Stamps. It's challenge sunday.

Today's challenge is Anything Goes! How easy! Everyone can join us in this challenge. Our sponsor is Michelle Perkett.




The winner will receive 3 Images of choice from Michelle Perkett and the winners badge.

Top 3 will each receive 1 image of choice from Cowgirl Up Designs and the Top 3 badge.


Here's the card I made for today's challenge:



I used this cute image that can be found here. It's called Best Friends Forever and I just love it. It was a dream to color. I used my copics and I got lots of practice coloring skin tones. I added a little bit of bling around the image using blue rhinestones. The paper was one I found on clearance at my convention. It was such a great price and double sided, so both the print and the plain are the same piece of paper!

Make sure to pop over to Cowgirl Up Designs to check out the digi's and get coloring! I'd love to see what you create for this challenge.

Happy creating!
