Time Out Challenge #247

There is a photo to inspire your cards at Time Out for this challenge.

Here is a larger version so you can see the detail.

Even with all the elements in the photo, I had a hard time figuring out what to do.  Then I recalled a card I made before and used it as inspiration.

I used my favorite EbyE bear and put him in a polaroid frame from PTI cut from Altenew's Spicy Yogurt paper.  The fish, rod and sentiment are all from Bear add-ons.   The perfect background paper is from an ancient pack.  

Lawn Fawn is our sponsor with a $25 store credit for the challenge winner. 

We'd love to see how you were inspired by this photo.  The Design Team has some wonderful cards for you to see.

Less Is More #386

I ordered the darling ducks from Gerda Steiner a while ago and thought one of them would be perfect for the 'water' challenge at Less Is More.

I colored the images with Zigs and added the sentiment to a PTI Polaroid die cut just to keep it Clean and Simple.

Thanks for dropping by.

Addicted to Stamps and More #304

Clean and simple is the way to go for this challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More.  I find that it's the way I go most of the time. 

This darling kitty from Gerda Steiner is one I colored with Zigs during the 30 day challenge.  I cut the PTI Polaroid frame from polka dots, changed the ribbon color to match and added the sentiment from the same set.

Check out what the Design Team has done and then make a card to enter the gallery.  We'd love to see you there.

Fusion - Baby's Room

It's been a while since I've entered a Fusion challenge but once I saw this darling baby's room I knew I had just the right stamp to make a card.

I had to have the cute little elephants from WPlus9 and it's been a while since I've used them too.

I first inked the Smoke cs with HA Unicorn white through a SSS stencil.  PTI's Polaroid die was used for the background, embossing the center square to look like crib slats.  The elephant and balloon are colored with Zigs and popped up.

After I finished this I ran across a piece of gray cardstock flock with little white polka dots but I decided to keep with what I had.  I just need to remember that paper for a future project.

Thanks for dropping by.  Enjoy your day.

Less Is More #351

What could be more fun than creating monster cards?  They're good for Halloween but I made mine a birthday card instead.  Here he comes Less is More.

Isn't he delightful?  Painted with Zigs and real eyes, he jumps right out of that Polaroid frame.

Thanks for dropping by.
