PIP Challenge 1921

Happy Memorial Day and welcome to PIP Challenge 1921!  Thank you to all who have served or are currently serving our country - I appreciate your hard work and sacrifice. Our theme this week is "Anything Goes" and our sponsor is Polkadoodles. Thank you to Polkadoodles for providing an image for the design team members to use.  Please visit their website to see all the great products they have to offer!  This adorable image is called "Millie with Heart Balloon" and she is colored with Copic markers.  I used up some scraps from my stash to layer the black, gingham and white papers on the blue base.  A simple ribbon was all I needed for embellishment.  Take a few minutes to see all the great inspiration at our challenge this week and be sure to get your project uplinked for a chance to win a really nice prize from Polkadoodles!  So glad you stopped by - have a great week!

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 432

Welome to Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 432!  Our theme this week is "Stenciling" and our lovely sponsor is Winnie & Walter.  I used a creative screening (stencil) called Scenery: Do You See What I See?.  The die cut "hugs" is also from Winnie & Walter.  I used Distress inks to sponge over the stencil and then added the die cut.  The flower was sponged with the same color ink and a white brad was placed in the center.  Please visit Winnie & Walter to see some really great products!  You can also visit our challenge this week to see some great inspiration from the design team members.  So glad you stopped by - have a great week!

PIP Challenge 1920

Happy Monday!  It's time for PIP Challenge 1920, an Anything Goes challenge, sponsored this week by All Dressed Up.  I am using this adorable image called "Over the Moon".  I was given this die cut frame (Stampin' Up) from a friend and thought it would make a great wedding or anniversary card.  I fussy cut the image and colored it with Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers and Copic markers.  I made the background piece with a "blot" stamp and red ink. The "Celebrate" is from Fun Stampers Journey.  Be sure to visit All Dressed Up to see all their awesome products.  And don't forget to link up your creation at PIP Challenge 1920 for a chance to win a really nice prize from All Dressed Up.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
