Made for each other

 Good Morning Friends,

Today I am sharing my DT card for Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. I am using Made for Each Other which is the perfect for name for such an image. 

  

I colored them up using my copics. I think they make a striking couple! The background is ink blending with distress oxides and a bit of splatter. I added some spider webs and we are done!

Road Trip

 Hi Everyone, 

Sharing this fun card that is giving all kinds of Thelma and Louise vibes. This is my DT card for Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. I used two images to create a simple scene. It looks like Cancun Cankles Karen is waiting for Open Top Olive to pick her up so they can start their fun adventures!

I colored them both with copics and added some clouds in the background with a stencil. I think it came out cute!

Hello Everyone, 

Time to share another card I have created for the DT at Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. I really love how this one came out. This is BBQ Bill which you can get here. I colored him up using my copic markers. I then used a copic pen to add the stripes to his shorts. The sentiment is also from Dr. Digi's Stamps that I printed and cut out placed on paper and popped off the card. The background is stenciled using Polkadoodles winter landscape stencil for the trees and La La Land Crafts Summer is Here stencil for the clouds. I used distress ink oxide in Tumbled Glass and Peeled Paint. 

The Sun, picnic bench, fire and roasted marshmallow are all dies from La La Land Crafts that I had on hand that helped to create this fun scene. 

Let me know what you think! 

Thanks for stopping by! Would love to know what you think of this card. I am entering this in the following challenges:

Desert Island Dick

 Good Morning Everyone,

Today I am sharing my DT card I made for Dr. Digi's House of Stamps using Desert Island Dick.

He is obviously a bit lonely and looking for some friends! I colored him up using my copics. I added some glossy accents to the water to make it look wet and then added some very fine glitter to the sand. The clouds were made from an old die I had and I popped them up for some dimension as well as the sign. The sky was mad just by using some distress ink oxide. I hope you enjoy this one.

Dr. Digi's Design Team

 Good Morning Everyone!

I am excited to share with you that I am now an official member of the Dr. Digi's House of Stamps Design Team. This is my first post using one of these delightful stamps. 

This stamp is Mascara Mandy who I think is awesome. I love that her mouth is open while applying her mascara, it is exactly what I do, what about you? Also the sentiments are hysterical you can get this one as part of a sheet here. 

I colored her using my copics:

Skin E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, R30, R20

Clothing:  RV29, R35, R32, R30

Hair:  E18, E15, YR23, Y21

Cat: W5, W3, W1, W0

I used some white gel pen for the polka dots. I cut the sentiment with a stitched rectangle and stitched scallop backing. 

The rug was actually a die from La La Land that was a wood slice.

Once upon a time

 Good Morning Friends,

Today I am sharing a card with you that I made using an older stamp from La La Land stamps. I do believe these stamps are my favorite. There is something about the cute faces that I want to keep coloring them. 

This princess and her unicorn look like they jumped off the pages of that book. Which is also a die from La La Land Crafts.

I colored these images up with my copic markers and fussy cut them out. I added a bit of glitter to her crown because what is a crown without sparkle?

No coloring

 Hello Everyone,

Do you tend to make the same style of cards or do you mix it up all the time? I find I have a style I lean towards but then when I mix it up I wonder why I haven't done it sooner ha! As is the case with this card, NO COLORING! Totally insane for me but I am in love with the results!

I used the Pretty Shutter Window die along with the brick stencil and the On The Street Card embellishments. I used distress inks for the flowers! Let me know what you think!
