PIP Challenge 2017

PIP Challenge  2017

There is no official sponsor for this week's
challenge but PIP will be offering the winner a 
$5 Gift Certificate from
Mo's Digital Pencil

Here's my card for this week!

I may be jumping the gun on my grandson's
birthday, in July, but with everything being
shutdown and keeping a stay-at-home order,
it may just be July before I see this little man, 
in person, again. I haven't been able to cuddle
him since Christmas. ARGGGH!! I miss that
little man...and here's why...

Yep, he's my favorite grandbaby!! He is
my only one though. 
ANYWAY...
I colored the image with Copics and glossed
the balloon, and felt the card didn't need
anymore than that. It's tough to add to 
such adorable images! 

Stay healthy and safe and enjoy 
virtual hugs!!

Challenge Time

Well...one good thing about having to stay

home is the fact that I can make cards to

mail out and join in challenges! This card 

went to a friend of mine in NY. I met her when 

she was just a very little girl. Her father and

I played cards and visited. I became friends

with the whole family and this little girl, 

now in her 20s, with two children of her own,

are still friends. They were all from Russia. 

Her birthday is today and she is now 27 yrs. 

old. WOW! I entered this card these challenges:

Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog 249

Creative Fingers Challenge 184

Lil Patch of Crafty Friends 130

I used a stamp set from MFT. I'm a Polar

Bear lover and these little bears make the

best! I colored the bears with Copics and

used daubers to add Memento inks to the 

little panels. MFT had matching die cuts,

that usually cut out perfectly...but...I didn't 

take my time, so they are a bit off. 

I raised the bears up with pop dots, created

a couple of layers and finished!!

They have soooo many wonderful digis!

With all the COVID-19 issues and risk, I've

had my former partners, at County Rescue

Services when I ran as a paramedic, just 

6 years ago, in my prayers. I am VERY thankful 

that I don't have to be working now but 

my prayers go out to all my friends 

there (Terri, a member of PIP's DT), and 

the 911 operators, (my daughter, Heather) 

in the Green Bay area. I sent this card to

CRS. I am grateful for all they do!!!

This cute little image was a freebie from

Whimsy Stamps. Copics, fussy cutting and

embossing folder for background and that

about covers it. That chubby little penguin

looks a lot like me in my uniform! hehe

Here's my card!

 Another beach type image and a great one
from Bugaboo! I can always find fun images
at Bugaboo! I colored my image with Copics
and used an oval die cut. I added some clear
lacquer to the sunglasses. I stamped the 
background flowers and colored them. Taking
a black SN Sparkle pen I filled in the entire
background. The sparkle is wonderful!

I used a sentiment from the same Paper Smooches

stamp set I got the flowers from. I raised the

sentiment with mounting tape and finished!

Well, at least it use to...before COVID-19.
I pray that you are all hunkered in somewhere
germ-free. Is there such a place? hmmm I've
remained inside and away from everyone
for more than 2 weeks now and every day 
seems exactly the same. lol. But crafting 
does continue! YAY...so onward!

Beccy's Place is a brand new sponsor

at PIP Challenges and you will love her

delightful stamps and digis, as well as 

matching die cuts! I love dies!! Be sure

to check her "store" out! You won't be 

disappointed! This pelican is from the

stamp set, By the Seaside. I used Copics

to color my sea bird and cut it out. I 

stamped some palms, in black, for my 

scene. Add bit of blue for my water. 

Once I attached my pelican using pop

dots I added a sentiment

and attached all the layers to finish.

I love simple. Obviously! This is just a white

card with a piece of pattern paper. I stamped

and colored my flowers with Copic markers.

I die cut the image and raised it with mounting

tape before attaching it to my card. Add 

a sentiment and that's it! Simply done!

Better Late than Never PIP Challenge 2012

Pammie's Inky Pinkies
Challenge 2012
After driving back from Florida I had no
energy left, nor the ability to unpack, in 
time to post the challenge, THUS, why
I am late. On that note, I want to thank
our amazing sponsor, Star Stampz!!

Be sure to pop over and check out all the 
fabulous digis they have!  In fact, go 
check them out now!

Here's my card and inspiration...

I began this card by picking out the perfect

background paper for the darling image.

Once that was decided, I found the right

Copic markers to color my little girl.

I printed out the image twice so I could 

fussy cut the sunflower and color it to be

raised with foam dots for dimension. I

felt the sentiment was perfect for this card.

I added a couple of white dots for freckles

and some white highlights in the hair.

Here's my project!

This was a cute image and I was happy with

the overall coloring...and then I added the

glaze for the sunglasses. It looks better in 

person but the photo looks really globby.

Is that a word??? LOL. It was colored with my

TriBlend markers and a white pen to highlight

the hair and add dots to the flowers on the hat.

This week's sponsor is 
The Cutting Cafe

Go check them out now!

Here's my project!

This card was fun to make and very
simple. TCC is a great place to get 
wonderful templates. You don't need die cuts
or anything. This slider card did come with
their own image (heart) and word (love).
I changed it up a bit. I wanted to use this 
flower stamp and matching die cut. I cut 
out all my pieces on white cardstock and
used them for templates on my pattern
paper. I pieced the card together following
Cutting Cafe video directions. Since I wanted
the stamped image on the front I had to
make some changes. The pull tab, as it was

shown, would have bent my flower so I 
cut the flower so it would move freely
as the card opened.

The flowers were colored using TriBlend

markers. I simply colored them without

trying to add shading. I liked the basic

clean look of the flowers. Be sure to checkout

the video at The Cutting Cafe.
