flamingo party

it is week two of the "tickled pink" challenge at the cheerful stamp pad.  its a challenge to play with pink and our sponsor is digi darla designs so the random;y selected winner will get some digis to play with.  here's my week 2 DT sample:

the digi here is called party flamingo.  since you can manipulate digis, changing size and such i thought why not reverse one and have 2 birds facing each other.  so that's what i did, colored them with pencils and gel pen, then decorated with pretty papers and stickers.  i think this card has potential as a valentine also.

well, feel free to join the fun, there is one week left.  enjoy, and love to all.

tickled pink at the cheerful stamp pad

the next two week challenge at the cheerful stamp pad is "tickled pink" so break out your pinks!  our challenge sponsor is digi darla designs.  a randomly selected winner will get a lovely prize from digi darla.

i used a gorgeous digi darla angel for my design team card.

she is colored with pencils and surrounded by various lovely papers.  this might be my first valentine of the season.  with many more to come!

i hope you will join the challenge.  love to all.

in the garden # 2

here's my DT contribution to week 2 of the "in the garden" challenge at the cheerful stamp pad.  our challenge sponsor is digi darla designs.

i was inspired to use this digi darla image because it reminded me of an old photo of my DH's lovely daughter (now grown with a husband and daughter of her own).  so while it is not a masculine card, it was a perfect image for this father's day for my DH.  the "happy father's day" image was handwritten since i don't have an appropriate stamp (or if i do i don't know where it is...)

feel free to join our challenge -- 7 more days to enter for a digital image prize!
happy father's day to all the wonderful fathers out there.

love to all.

in the garden #1

i know, i know, where have i been?  sick, busy, traveling.  i hate to go ten days without posting but sometimes it goes that way. 

so i'm a little late sharing the latest challenge at the cheerful stamp pad.  the theme is "in the garden" and our challenge sponsor is digi darla designs which means a digi prize for our randomly selected winner!  like most companies they have digis and other art-making goodies so check them out.

i've made a card using a digital image from digi darla colored with pencils.  it is layered on designer paper and brown card stock and embellished with some adhesive lace.  being in the garden should be about simplicity, right?

i hope you'll have the chance to join the challenge.
love to all.
