Digi Darla time!

I’m really excited about the news going on at digi darla’s blogspot. She is looking for 4 new DT members! I will be adding my name to the pile. :::fingers crossed::: For this weeks challenge DDC 12 she has given us her first sketch to work with. I love sketches so I had a lot of fun with this challenge. Father’s day is not too far away so I decided to make a fathers day card. I just fell in love with this kitty and his airplane. I colored him in with Copic markers and used digi kits as my background paper. I embellished with bakers twine (which is on sale at my shop ) and brads. Below I have included the sketch with my card. Thanks for stopping by!

Be bold, Be you!

Another week, another amazing sketch by Deconstructed Jen. Her sketches really get the creative juices going. She has a couple of shapes going on here and I really wanted to show off the new ribbon I have on sale and I also really wanted to use tiddlyinks new digi. I colored the ballerina with Copic markers and blended in chalk ink around it. I used a combo of SU paper and digi paper. The ribbon I used is May Arts red v striped twill.

Inspirational Photo theme

Good Morning! Today I have a new card for Digi Darla’s inspirational photo theme.

“This week we are doing an Inspirational Photo theme - What do you see? The colors, design, elements? We’re excited to see what you use for inspiration from this photograph!!”-digidarlas.blogspot.com

The image I used is one of Darla’s digi stamp I bought from her store. It’s definitely one of my fav stamps! I used digi designer paper and the sentiment stamp is from papertreyink.

Sailing By

Time for another Deconstructed sketch (D51)by Jen. For this sketch I used a nautical digital kit from two peas and bucket and the digi stamp is from Tiffany doodles. I wanted to create a card for a boy or man and I think the nautical kit was perfect. I added some bakers twine on the side and the sentiment was typed using microsoft word.

My hero

Good evening everyone! It’s time for another Digi Darla Challenge. This challenge is sponsored by Di’s Digi Downloads. Digi Darla’s Challenge “Celebrate Mom” is about celebrating mom or someone special in your life. I used a digi stamp from our sponsor and added a cute sentiment. I embellished the card with vintage inspired pink crinkle ribbon which you can purchase online at V’s Sweet Ideas shop. I’m also honored to have been chosen as last week’s TOP 3. Thanks Darla! I am always looking forward to your next challenge.
