Head over to the current PIP Challenge 2304 NOW!
This week's challenge is a THEMED challenge...
Here's what I made for the challenge.
I used a heart stencil, I had in my stash of
stuff, and used a pink ink. My little Polkadoodles
was colored with Copics and TriBlend
markers. I cut this guy out by hand. Fortunately
I enjoy fussy cutting sometimes. The 
sentiment was from a random set but it is
perfect for a friend of mine going through
some depression. Prayers will go with the card too!

We REALLY appreciate our sponsors!

The prize will be a 
$10 Gift Certificate from 
YAY!!
Here is my project for the challenge...
Such fun playing around with all the fun
I used SY Polar Opposites for this card!
Anyone that really knows me knows I 
LOVE POLAR BEARS! This set is just so
cute and fun to play with. The images were
fussy cut out after I colored them with my
Copic markers. I raise the framed panel
and the penguins. Then I raised the Polar
Bear. It was a simple card and certainly
makes me smile. Hope you're smiling too!!

Here's my card!
Since I just made it to Florida the 1st of Jan.
this image could be me. HAHAHA! I just 
love Beccy's images and sentiments!
I used Copics and SN TriBlend markers
to color the image. I used daubers and
ink pads to create the scene. I took a shrub
stamp and added some "growth" on the
beach. This card will go to a friend back in
Wisconsin who desperately NEEDS some sun!!

Yup, gotta love Gerda Steiner Designs,
and I do! Another super easy card that is 
just too cute. I colored my sweet little 
kitty with Copic and TriBlend markers.
I fussy cut it out. The sentiment bubble
and sentiment were from two different
companies but worked out nicely with
this kitty and will be a wonderful birthday
card for my cat loving sister-in-law. 
I used some white scrap strips to place
behind the image which is raised using
mounting tape. Easy and fun.
