Bird of Happiness

The Monday Greetings challenge this week at The Outlawz was "Anything Goes". I have been having a lot of fun with my Unity Stamp Company images.

Great is Thy Faithfulness....

The Greetings challenge at The Outlawz last Monday was to add fabric. Using fabric is on my cards is one of my favorite things to do. This is a church lady. The words were also part of the fabric with the ladies. The hats were from a coordinating fabric. 

 

Tis the season

It is the last Friday of the month, so of course The Outlawz coloring challenge is Anything Goes, Christmas Optional. The image is from Unity Stamp Company. I colored him with copics and added blue stickles for the falling snow.

Rose

Wednesday sketch challenge at The Outlawz. The rose is fabric. I painted white rik rak with Tim Holtz Tarnished Brass Distress paint.

Witches brew

The Tuesday color challenge at The Outlawz was a tic-tac-toe board. I went vertically thru the middle. That gave me orange, black and a color of my choice - green. The Toxic stamp is from Unity Stamp Company and the cauldron is a die from My Favorite Things. I used an embossing folder on the card base. Bright green stickles were used for the bubbling brew. 

You are on my mind

The Twisted Thursday challenge at The Outlawz this week was to add a sentiment to your card. The image and sentiment are from Unity Stamp Company. The embossing folder I used was actually a frame, but the image covered the "framed" area perfectly.

Mixed Media Background

 

The CAS challenge at The Outlawz this Sunday was to "do something you don't normally do. I never use my mixed media products for my cards. The background was created using Dylusions inks in mowed grass and London Blue. I then used a stencil and Viva 3D stamp paint to add a layer to the background. The paper immediately under the butterfly has the 3D stamp paint on it. The butterfly is fabric.

Something new, Something old, Something blue

The Paper Ala Mode challenge at The Outlawz this past Saturday was to use something new, old, and blue. The rain boots are new (unity stamps). The DP is old (from my stash). The layering papers are blue. I used used Viva Pearl pens to do the center of the flowers and the other dots on the boots.

Daisies

The coloring challenge at The Outlawz this past Friday was an inspiration challenge. The inspiration was a picture of daisies. You could use the picture or the colors in it to spearhead your card.

Grape girl

This past Thursday, I was the Guest Designer for the Twisted Thursday Challenge at The Outlawz. The twist was to make a CAS card. I used a Bestie and colored her with purples and then embossed my background.

Under the Water

The Color challenge this past week at The Outlawz included the colors of Lapis Lazuli, Swan White, Grass Green, and Sunflower yellow. The twist was to do something other than a card. This is a canvas. The background uses Dylusions paints and inks. The images are all from Dylusions. I painted them with Dylusions inks. I used a stencil and Texture paste mixed with Dina Wakely paint to create the "algae". Viva clear glass effects gel was used for the bubbles.

April Showers

The Monday Greeting challenge at The Outlawz this past week was April Showers. The image is from Penny Black. Lots of glitter was used to embellish the image.

The Queen

The CAS challenge this past Sunday at The Outlawz was to make a humorous card. The images are from Art Impressions Vintage Collection. The crown is from Hot off the Press.

Foxy Love

The Twisted Thursday challenge at The Outlawz was to use a punch. The image is from Unity Stamp Company. I used an EK success punch to make the flower trim. I used the Viva Pearl Pen to add the centers of the flowers.

Musical Bird

Wednesday Sketch challenge for The Outlawz. The image is from Unity Stamp Company. I used a piece of Tim Holtz Tissue tape on the background strip and embossed the background with a cuttlebug embossing folder. The 3 dots are Candi that were colored with copics.

Celebrate Spring

I thought that spring had arrived, but then this week I had second thoughts. The Monday Greeting challenge at The Outlawz was to make a spring card and include an animal. There was also a challenge for my stamp club to make a spring card. The image is from Penny Black.

Hoppy Birthday

The Sunday CAS challenge at The Outlawz was to add an embellishment of something that started with the same letter as your first or last name. I chose to add a frog for my last name.
