What have I done?

I went and made another Easter card.  Now I have to get two out in time for Easter.  Oh, the pressure...

The image I used is by Bugaboo and I think it is so cute. I'm sorry but I can't find where I have the sentiment on my computer, so I don't know who created it.  That's terrible I know.  I colored the image by my favorite way, water coloring with Ranger Distress inks.

The card will be entered in the following challenges:

Sister Act Card Challenge: Challenge #98

Simply Create Too: MID-POST CHALLENGE #81 - EASTER OR BUNNIES & OUR FAVORITES FROM CH #80

IDIC: CHALLENGE # 256 - "ADD A BOW" - 3/22/2015

I'm Tickled

I used a Bugaboo image and sentiment on the card I have today and it just tickles me.  Some of you in the retail business may relate to this.

Yes, this is a bright card. Just sort of turned out that way.  One of the challenges I'm entering requires 'spring colors' and I hope my colors comply.  I'm also entering it into a challenge on a spiritual-based challenge blog and I really hope this card doesn't offend them.  Or anybody for that matter!

Do You Stack Up Challenge #6 Ribbon

Do You Stack Up is starting another challenge today and the challenge is to use RIBBON.  Oh, no problem there!


I want to tell you about the prizes being offered.  We have two sponsors for this challenge.

Our first sponsor is Kristens Powers Ink.  

Kristen's Etsy shop is full of sweet hand

drawn illustrations. Kristens Powers Ink

(KPink) is giving the winner five free

digital images from her shop.

Bugaboo Stamps is our second sponsor for the challenge.

The winner will get to choose seven digital images from 

the Bugaboo store.  Bugaboo's images are cute and full

of attitude!

I chose Bugaboo's Tons of Love Elephant to use for my card.  I added a sentiment I typed up myself.  I water colored the image with Ranger Distress Inks.  I used Stampin Up little heart stamp for the background on the card base.  

The colorful background has Autumn Leaves and Inkadinkadoo hearts used in a technique called Rainbow Double from the Technique Junkie Newsletter.
I was so happy to be able to use one of the flowers I crocheted!  My double bow was awful not the best and the flower really helped make it presentable. 
I hope my card and the rest of the design team's cards encourage you to create something today!

Do You Stack Up Challenge #3

I hope you had a chance to join us in the Distress challenge at Do You Stack Up last week.  It was so fun to mess up paper for the sake of art!

This week for the Do You Stack Up Challenge #3 we are going to Think Pink!  That should be pretty easy for everyone.  We have two sponsors for this Pink week.

Pink Gems Designs is going to give three digital images as a prize to the winner of the challenge.

Bugaboo Stamps is going to give seven digital images to the winner of our challenge.  All you have to do is create a project with Pink.  And be the lucky randomly chosen winner of course.

I used the Bugaboo Stamps image 'Stella - Bed Angry' for my card.  Stella always cracks me up.  I gave her angry 'lightening bolts' coming off of her head to indicate she is really stewing! I love all the Stella images; they are so fun to use to make cards.
Please go over to Do You Stack Up and look at all the Design Team's cards, as they really are fabulous and very inspirational.  I'm sure you will be inspired to get to work to get a chance to win some cute Pink Gems and Bugaboo images!  I'll be looking forward to everyone's entries.
