Here's a hug

Hi all!  Here's my card for the MFTWSC369 challenge.  I love this guy!  I mean, who wouldn't want a hug from a big ol' cuddly Viking?  ;)  I colored him with Copics.  The pirate ship in the background is from the BB Party like a Pirate set and was stamped with distress ink.  I watercolored the sky and ocean around it them swiped more water over it all to blur it and give the illusion of it being in the distance.  The sentiment is from the Bitty Bears set (so many great sentiment in that set, besides those super adorable bears!).

Thanks for stopping by!

The Card Concept Challenge!

Hi all!  So, without jinxing anything, I just got my (second) new laptop tonight and so far, I'm loving it!  The first new one I got FROZE on me three times while trying to edit pictures!  Uh. I don't THINK SO!  So I'm happy to be posting again without having to pray that my old laptop would cooperate (and it was absolutely NOT cooperating for a while now). 

It's time for a new challenge on The Card Concept Challenge Blog!  I decided to steer away from the floral-ness of the inspiration picture and focused on the pretty colors.  I watercolored the MFT Bitty Bear then popped him up next to the Happy Birthday die-namics sentiment.  I did a little sponging on the card base.

We'd love for you to play along with us!

Thanks for stopping by!

You are the sweetest

Hi all!  I'm here again with a card I made for the new The Card Concept #84 Challenge and the recent, but not current, MFTWSC366 sketch challenge.  I used the More Rustic Wildflowers set and matching dies.  I adhered a flower with leaves into each opening I had cut out with the Stitched Tag-Corner Square STAX die.  This is definitely one of my favorite color combos - pinks and that MFT grout gray!  The sentiment is from the Bitty Bears set and fits rather well in my favorite old Fishtail Flags STAX.

I'm waiting on my (second) new computer to arrive later this week (first one must have been a dud!), so possibly no posts until the weekend!  ughhhh...

Thanks for stopping by!

I'm so happy for you

Hi all!  I'm a bit late, but still wanted to post this card I made for the MFTWSC365 challenge.  I had fun with distress inks and the Color Drops STAX die-namics.  The sentiment is from the Town Bear stamp set.  The card base and main layer are Grout Gray cardstock (one of my faves!).

Thanks for stopping by!
