Elzy kitty card

I had colored this image for a certain color challenge on SCS ~ going grey, riding hood red and green galore ~ but had never gotten around to making a card with it til now! I made this for the World Card Making Day sketch challenge. The image was colored w/ inks from ink pads and a watercolor brush. I outlined it w/ my bashful blue marker to make it *pop*. I pierced along the red strips and added a sentiment punched out w/ my word window punch. Thanks to Stacy for the ribbon!!

Another Elzybell sketch challenge!

Time for the 3rd Elzybell sketch challenge on the Elzy blog, which you can check out HERE. Since I haven't been able to do a card for the color challenge on SCS this week, I decided to use them for this challenge. Not a traditional baby card, but hey, still cute, right? Used my nesties (*lovin'* those things!) to cut and layer my image. The image is watercolored with baja breeze, chocolate, banana and rust. I'm wishing now that I had cuttlebugged the rust layers, but it was late and my brain just wasn't thinking right! Used piercing and eyelets to finish it off. Thanks for stopping by!

Elzybell sketch challenge #2

Yep, it's that time again! You can find Elzybell's 2nd sketch challenge here !!!
I used this sweet little juggling penguin. I colored him with my ol' SU watercolor pencils and a blender pen. I put liquid applique on the snowballs and "ground". I decided to not add a sentiment to the front, but I think the white satin ribbon (thanks, Stacy!!) and fun dp are enough to make this a cute card!

1st Elzy blog challenge!!

Yay, we've begun the first of our challenges over on the Elzybells Blog!! This weeks sketch challenge was made up by Jeanne Streiff.
You can see that I put my cuttlebug to work again and I also adding faux stitching to that layer. That yumm-o dp is new from Bo Bunny. I think the next thing to get on my never-ending shopping list is a set of Nestabilities. I only have a coluzzle and 2 pink (forget the size) marvy punches, as for as cutting systems go. If you know of a good place to get these, please let me know! (think I'll check HL) Back to the card ~ again, all coloring w/ SU markers. I used ruby red and cameo on the little robin ~ ain't he sweet?? I watercolored moss as the ground and then outlined them with my bashful blue marker. Thanks for peeking in!

Buzzin by with an Elzy card

How cute is this stamp?? I *love* it! Supah simple to color, which I did w/ SU markers. And yes, folks, I finally crawled out from under my rock and bought myself a Cuttlebug!! This started out as last weeks' sketch, but I ended up changing it a bit. I cut in between each scallop and bent back every other "petal" to give it more dimension. And I think this dp is just so adorable ~ the flower centers are sparkly! Thanks for taking a peek!!
