MFP Stamps COLOR Challenge 22

MFP Stamps Challenge 22
Color Challenge - Turquoise
The weekly color must be the main color. White, black and one other color may be used.

Here's my sample card as a design team member for Mark's Finest Papers! Thanks for looking and head on over to JOIN IN the challenge fun!

I took a piece of glossy white cardstock 

and a beautiful die cut of butterflies. I then

took a turquoise piece of Vellum and white 

embossed my sentiment onto it. I glued

the glossy die cut piece to a pretty turquoise

cardstock and attached the vellum to it 

using some white brads. I stamped my

butterfly in an ink matching my turquoise 

cardstock and added clear embossing powered

to it to give it a nice raised look.

I used MFP stamp set

"Birthday Mini"

I had fun, using my Copics, to color these cute
cowgirl boots. I added some black twine and I
used a boot die cut, colored with Copics. I had
to add a little flower sequin to finish it off. I

Let's get started !!

Here's my card for 

DAY 2

I will be the first to admit this isn't a fantastic
card but it is still usable. lol I embossed half my
cardstock and added a dot Washi tape through
the middle. I sponged on my sky and sun and
dragged my brown ink pad over the bottom to
create my ground. I then added my images and
sentiment. I used mounting to raise the image.
Thanks for stopping by and be sure to join in

Ok...it's the WILD WILD WEST, eh? Well,
here's my card. I certainly don't need to say
much about it, other than, I used Copic markers
to color my image. It actually comes pretty
close to a CAS card. Thanks for stopping by

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 295

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 295

-For a Child -

This is a pretty basic card, no bells or whistles
but it has some kid appeal, I think. I love
Digitals Delights little farm girl. She was
lots of fun to color using Copics. I sponged
my inks on white to create a sunny sky and
green field. I stamped a farm silhouette
(Sweet 'n' Sassy) along the "horizon". I added
my sentiments and some grass (My Favorite
Things) and cut out my girl image. I raised
her up using mounting tape. Then is was
just a matter of layering my cardstocks.

Thanks for stopping by.

Our sponsor for this challenge is

Digital Delights

I want to thank Digital Delights for sponsoring this 

challenge. They have wonderful digis! 

Be sure to check them all out!

Still time to get involved with the current challenge at Tuesday Throwdown.

MFP Stamps Challenge 21
Pleated Skirt Fold Card - follow TUTORIAL

Here's my sample card as a design team member for Mark's Finest Papers! Thanks for looking and head on over to JOIN IN the challenge fun!

I followed the tutorial and created my card. I 

stamped my sentiment before I used my Swiss

dot embossing folder. I added a piece of white

satin ribbon. I colored my butterfly image using

Copic markers and cut it out. I raised it using

mounting tape. I added some crystal Stickles

to give it some BLING!!

It was a simple card with a lovely result.
Thanks for stopping by and there is still
time to join in the challenge!

I used MFP stamp set

"Hello Butterflies"
