Birthday Wagon.....

Stella Says Sketch Challenge #122 is my inspiration for this card!  I LOVE the black and red - perfect for a boys birthday card!!  This is Sean Dog, one of my newest images from my recent Bugaboo win!

The paper is from Kaiser - Shaken not stirred and the CS is Real Red (SU).  The buttons are from my stash!
Sean is coloured with Copics and the sentiment is from an old Simon Says set.

I am entering this into Crafty Catz challenge, which is to make a MALE card.  Also, Fussy & Fancy and Stampin' for the weekend have  Anything Goes challenges that I am going to enter this into.

Wish me luck.....red and black make me feel lucky!!! LOL
Hugs,

Milton's Christmas stocking....

I found some great sketch challenge blogs that I am going to try to participate in more!  This card is for SKETCH N STASH - they have 2 rules...you have to use the sketch (this is Sketch 99) & you have to use up some old (or new) stash!  Well...bonus for me!!!!!  The old stash I have used is the poinsettia flowers (had them FOREVER!) and the "JOY - PEACE" button (not even sure when/where I got them from but I have a TON!  The image is Milton with Stocking from Wild Rose Studios and I have coloured him with Copics.

I am also entering this into Crafty Ribbons challenge, which is Christmas. The tiny strip of silver in the middle IS ribbon...honest!  AND there is silver string...does that count???

ALSO entering this at Paper Crafting Journey which is Ribbon or twine! AND at Willow Sketchie Challenge which is Christmas (and/or sketch...so I did Christmas! Although the sketch is kinda close!  I won't push my luck there though! LOL)


Thanks for popping in! Have a GREAT day!

Seems a little Sketchy....

What a great name for a challenge blog eh? I told you I found a couple great challenge blogs that focus on sketches.....this one I'm entering in today is called Seems a Little Sketchy...cute eh?? Here is the card that I made using their sketch:

I have used a Stamp Fairy image - this is Donny, isn't he sweet?  I have coloured him with Copics and added white 3D paint under his skis.  The paper is from Basic Grey - Nordic and the CS is Brilliant Blue (SU)

I am entering this into the Animal challenge over at Fab n Funky too! 

I am also entering this in Digi Stamps 4Joy which is Anything Goes + Bonus Masculine.  I think Donny fits the masculine part, don't you??

Have a great day!
Hugs,
Chris

Bugaboo Bingo....

Since I won the Catch the Bug challenge last week (YAAAAY ME!!!) I decided to play along with the October Bingo challenge with one of my new images!!!  I used the middle row going down - Button, Sentiment & Paper Piercing (and yes,  I checked it about 15 times to make sure it said PIERCING and not PIECING! LOL)   I have used SEAN SLINGSHOT for this card.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

I am also entering this card in Penny's Challenge blog  - the theme this week is Ribbon or buttons!  I got a button!!!!  Wheeeeee!!! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas challenge entry card.....

 I am entering this card into the TOTALLY PAPERCRAFTS challenge this week, which is CHRISTMAS - 9 WEEKS & COUNTING (gulp!!!) I have used an image from Saturated Canary called Snow Blower...isn't it cute??? I love elephants so this was right up my alley!!!! I have coloured it with Copics but added some paper snowflakes for some 3D effects.  The snow is 3D Glittering Crystal paint from Michaels.
