Creatalicious - Wishing

Hello Crafty Friends!  Today starts a new challenge at Creatalicious.  For the next 2 weeks, you can create "Anything Goes" with the option of twine or ribbon projects.  Can't wait to see what you come up with.

I created this card using Looking Up from Crafty Sentiments.  This image is SO sweet and I colored her up with my Prismacolor pencils.  The sky is sponged using Gelatos.  I used a simple ribbon with a charm for the option on this challenge.

Here's the inside.

Dr Digi - Made For Each Other

Hello Crafty Friends!  I'm here with my Dr Digi post for today :o)  It's getting very close to Valentine's Day and I couldn't think of a better couple than these lovies.

Using the digital stamp Made For Each Other for my Valentine's card, they seem like the perfect couple.  I don't celebrate the Hallmark holiday, but I do like to make some Valentines for other people.  The image was colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  As you can tell, they are dressed in their best "Love Day" attire.  I used Me & My Big Ideas for the background paper, it's elegant, yet dark enough for our couple.

Here's the inside.

Love to Craft! Challenge Blog #7 - Friend With Chocolate

Hello crafty friends!  A new month is already here this new year....why does it have to go SO fast.  Love to Craft! Challenge Blog is ready to see what you have been creating.

This month I created covers for some chocolate bars going to friend.  Sometimes chocolate makes everything better.

I used a base cardstock and leftover designer paper to cover up this yummy.  Some embellishments are needed to make it look pretty.  The sentiment is from Unity called Chocolate & Friendship, just perfect for this.

Here's the second one, yes, she might need two bars to make it all better.  No sentiment, but lots of pretty embellishments.

Dr Digi - Different Day

Hello crafty friends!  I'm here with today's post for Dr. Digi.

Stan is having a bad day or maybe week.  I'm sure many of us have felt this way many of times.  This image is Stan's Stolen Sandwich, which I colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  I also decided to use Tea & Bickies backing paper from Dr. Digi, this way the seagull has a little dessert after the sandwich.  The sentiment is a stamp from Unity Stamp called AH Crap!

Thought this could go to someone having a rough time.

Digistamps 4 Joy: Best Friends

Hello Crafty Friends!  I have a couple of posts today, so bare with me.  I'm excited that I was asked to Guest Design for Digistamps 4 Joy this month.  This months' challenge is " All About Love".

This adorable image is Best Friends from Digistamps 4 Joy.  Sometimes our pets are much more to us than animals that live in our house.  They can be our best friends and show us unconditional love.  That's why I chose this image for this challenge.  I colored the image with my Prismacolor pencils.  The background paper has some hearts on it to add some love, but I went ahead and added more hearts.  The sentiment is from a stamp set I've had forever and never used, it seemed perfect.

Here's the inside.

Dr Digi - Another Birthday!!!

Hello Crafty Friends!  I'm here today with my post for Dr Digi.

I really feel sorry for this poor sap...he was just having another birthday.  I've seen a few guys like this, poor things.  This is a fun new image from Dr Digi called Hen Pecked Hamish. I thought of a few great sentiments for this, but went with this one from Dr Digi's Grumpy Sentiments, you really need this one for your collection.  The image is colored with my Prismacolor pencils, but I did sponge the background sky.

Here's the inside with another Dr Digi sentiment from the Grumpy Sentiments sheet.
