CMC Challenge Guest Designer- Fall Fun

Happy Labor Day Weekend!!! I am so excited to share my project today that I made as a Guest Designer for the CMC Challenge Group.  If you haven't already you really should join in on the fun,  There are great challenges and always great prizes to be won and you too could be selected to be a Guest Designer.


Challenge #26 FALL OR HALLOWEEN Theme using YOUR COPICS, COPIC REFILLS OR COPIC AIRBRUSH SYSTEM (Or ProMarkers if you have them).
 This weeks sponsor is The Stamp Fairy and I was given this adorable Chubby Scarecrow 1 to work with..love him!!  I used this great new fall paper by Bo Bunny called Forever Fall along with The Upsy Daisy & Dizzy Doily Die-namics by MFT to create the fall bouquet. I loved the unexpected "pop" of color this paper has so I played off of that.
Here is a close up of the bear so you can see the added touch of raffia to his sleeves and hat.  

Copics
Bear E35, E34, E30, E53, E51, E50/Hat Y21, Y26, Y28/BG09, BG13,/YR18, YR116/Background BG000, BG70/Ground E41, E42, E44, Y26, Y28/ Leaves R59, YR18, YR16

 I hope you will stop by and take a look at the wonderful Design Team Creations and if you haven't taken any of the online Copic classes by Suzanne Dean you should, they are fabulous no matter what your level of expertise.
Enjoy your weekend!!

The Sweet Stop Sketch 124

Hi everyone!! This is going to be a fast post but I will be back with more in the morning hours.  Here is my card for this weeks The Sweet Stop Sketch.  Yes I know it doesn't look like my normal style but I thought I would try something different and well, I think I better stick with what I am more comfortable with:)
Here is this weeks sketch, Korin has come up with another great one and I hope you will join us.  I used the sentiment from Your Friendship from Sweet 'n Sassy .


Please stop by and visit the rest of The Sugar Babies.  Sadly Jennipher Lowery's DT term was up at The Sweet Stop and we are going to miss her but don't forget to stop by and visit her she is starting a new challenge blog and is having a Design Team call and you can check it out HERE.  I would also like to send out a big welcome to Lori Ames who is joining the team this week.

Fairy Dreams

Hello everyone!! I want to first send prayers and hugs to all of you that may have been effected by the hurricane.  I hope this finds you and your families safe.
Today I have something wild and crazy to share with you...a card I made just for fun.   Having a little down time while the kids were in school was a nice time to craft and I saw a couple of challenges that inspired me so here it is.  How gorgeous is this stamp? As I have said before Wee Stamps are one of my favorites the detail and sweetness amazes me.  This digi is called Silver Fairy and you can find her HERE.
I love this paper from Prima called Madeline...my favorite colors.   I distressed the edges and added some pretty bling.  I colored the wings twice and popped them up with dimensionals I just couldn't get a sentiment to work so I decided I better just leave it alone.

The Sweet Stop Sketch 123- Good Times

Woohoo it's Saturday!! I haven't been excited about Saturday all summer.  We all made it through the first week of school with tired but happy kids.  They love their teachers and my youngest loved having Mommy to herself and Mommy loved having alone time to craft, it was just what I needed:)
I had so much fun making this card for The Sweet Stop Sketch-SSS123.  I am totally in love with these new to me digi stamps from The Paper Shelter and I knew right away this Cool Waitress was the first one I wanted to used .  Makes me want to watch Grease.
My super talented team mates have some wonderful inspiration to share so I hope you will stop by and say "hi" and join us in the challenge.

I know I normally do a lot of brunettes but I played around with my markers and came up with this color that I was pretty happy with.

The Sweet Stop Sketch 122 & ATS Naughty & Nice Digi Release

Happy Saturday!! It is our last couple of days of staying up late and sleeping in... I am going to need lots of coffee next week.  Today I have the other side of my door hanger to show you (see the below post for my naughty side).  I used this weeks The Sweet Stop Sketch SSS122 for my layout and it was a fun one to work with.  My image is the new C.C. Designs Angel Birgitta Digi and you can get her at All That Scraps.
This weeks sketch at The Sweet Stop has a twist which means there is a prize to be won.  We want to see you use those fibers on your project.  At 3:00 AM I liked my twisty twine detail but now, not so much...oh well.
As always The Sugar Babies have some fabulous cards to get you started on the sketch so please stop by and visit them.
The Sugar Babies
 The sentiment was once a again done on the computer,  I cut the cloud out of felt and then added Polar White Flower Soft to give it a fluffy texture.  The  papers are some of my favorites Cosmo Cricket Delovely and that was the last of my stash.  The frame was cut out using the Cricut Spring Holiday Card Cartridge a little bling and Yellow Stickles and that is about it.
Challenges
Have a great weekend and I will see you in a few days!!

All That Scraps Naughty or Nice Digi Preview

So how is everyone today? I am running around like a crazy person meeting all of the teachers and getting ready for school to start Monday.  I have mixed emotions right now, I don't think it is as hard with the second one going into Kinder because I know what to expect.
All That Scraps has four new digis & 2 sentiments being released tomorrow that can be used for Halloween or other occasions like I have done here.  Now my project is actually a double sided door hanger but you will have to check back tomorrow to see the other side:) I thought this would be cute to hang on the girl's bedroom door or maybe even Mommy's:)
 This is Devil Birgitta by C.C. Designs very own Christine Wooden and tomorrow you can find her HERE.  I used my Cricut Spring Holiday Cards cartridge to cut out the frame.  The paper is some old SU Rockability that I have been hoarding.  I printed the sentiments on the computer and hand cut the flags and distressed the edges.  I colored Birgitta with Copics and drew the flames to set her on.  I finished it off with Twinery Twine which you can get at ATS.
The rest of the ATS Digi team has done a fabulous job with the new images and you can see them HERE.
Please stop by tomorrow so I can show you the back side of my door hanger.
