Happy Easter -- For All Dressed Up Stamps

 Hello, fellow crafters, and happy March!  That means it's time for another challenge in the Facebook group of All Dressed Up Stamps. The theme this month is ''For the Girls'.  Now, no one does girl images like Wendy Burns, so this is a great one!  Pick out a favorite from the All Dressed Up Stamps Etsy Shop and join us for the ADU FB Challenge.  You have all month! 

I found a girl that also celebrates Easter, or spring!  Perfect for March, I figured!  Here's Happy Easter:



I colored Happy Easter using only Olo markers.  I was determined to try and get to know the colors that I own better.  I was a challenge.  The skin tones went OK.  Her hair was initially a disaster, but after blending a bunch a shades, I achieved something I was satisfied with.  Her dress chose to be another challenge, and I almost gave up at this point, but again, mixed enough shades until I could live with it. The bunny is very light, but those were the only grays I had.  Oh well, It's my Olo colored project.   The beautiful background plate is from Pinkfresh Studio, as is the nesting dies I cut and backed the image with.  The sentiment is meant to be foiled, but I left it as is, and the dewdrops are from my stash.

I hope you can join us this month for our 'For the Girls' Challenge.  I'd love to see what you create!

Fairy Magic -- For Cute Card Thursday

 It's Thursday, and it's time for a new challenge at Cute Card Thursday. Every Thursday, a new challenge begins.  This week, our sponsor is All Dressed Up Stamps, and the theme is "wings".  You can find many images that fit this theme in the All Dressed Up Stamps Etsy Shop (or however you want to interpret the theme).

I used the darling Fairy Magic image for my DT inspiration today:



I colored Fairy Magic with Copic markers, then inked the edges of the die cut with Close To My Heart inks while she was still in the stitched oval die. 

The background is a retro floral die cover by Pinkfresh Studio. The pink crinkle ribbon is from the D.L. Art Etsy Shop.

I hope you join us this week for our "wings" challenge at Cute Card Thursday! I'd love to see what you create.

I'd like to enter this in the following challenges:
Aud Sentiment -- ATG + a sentiment
The Paper Shelter -- With a Sentiment
D.L. Art -- April Linky Party

You're Stinkin' Cute -- for Dies R Us

A happy hello, fellow crafters.  I'm on the Dies R Us Inspiration blog today.  I love my days on the Dies R Us blog, because it means I get to play with the wonderful dies found in the Dies R Us Store.  There are more than 55 companies available in the Dies R Us store, so that's a lot of dies to play with!

I love Lawn Fawn, and Distress Oxide inks, so I combined 2 of my loves on today's card:

Stinkin' cute, isn't it?

Let me show you how I made it.

First, the supplies I used (they'll be linked at the bottom of this post):

I started out with 2 colors if Distress Oxide ink -- Spun Sugar, and Squeezed Lemonade.  I worked roughly on the diagonal.  I used a piece of paper larger than I would need so I'd have some room to play with:

Then, while the ink dried, I stamped my skunk and heart, and used Copic markers to color them up. You'll see my "oops" on the heart stamp, so I stamped it again.

After I got them colored the way I liked them, it was time to use the matching die cuts, and a scallop edge die cut, also from Lawn Fawn:

Below, is everything die cut, and the background paper that I used. 

All that's left is to stamp the sentiment, add some twine, and assemble the card.

I hope you have a stinkin' great day!
