Show Us Your Inner Animal With Chessie Catnip Flower Pot Pretties

Wow! Time sure is flying by, isn't it? Can you believe August is almost here?! Anyway, its time for another challenge and we have some new releases to show you, too?! Our theme, this fortnight, is flowers.  Come over to  Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog to play along and see our new releases! Remember, you have two weeks to play along, as always, so we expect to see lots and lots of fabulous entries, this fortnight! The prizes are the usual - There's a random winner to be chosen, Top 3 spots and a guest designer spot up for grabs! Plenty of chances  to win, from Lacy Sunshine! Come see the awesome talent of the design team, at the Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog!

I have to admit, this project was quit challenging! We were given a digi "Puzzle," I like to call it. Each part is printed separate and you're able to piece them together, however you want.  I have to say, it was a lot of fun to  figure out how I wanted to put it together.  I hope you like my finished project!

My card uses the image, Chessie Catnip Flower Pot Pretties, from Lacy Sunshine, colored with Promarkers. I used this fun paper, from my stash, with hearts and animal footprints. I thought it would go great with this fun kitty image! I fussy cut each part of the image and put them all together, individually, to create this 3D image. I used striped paper across the center of the card.

Harvest Thanksgiving

Wow, time is flying by! It's so hard to believe that its November, already! Thanksgiving will be here before we know it! Are you all planning your Thanksgiving menus, yet? I've started working on mine, already.

Speaking of Thanksgiving, we are celebrating this wonderful family holiday this week at Daisy's Doodles. Our theme is Thanksgiving - Anything goes! How's that for a fun one?! Come over to Daisy's Doodles and play along with us! You could be our next winner!

I used the following photo from Just Inspirational Challenges as the Color Inspiration for today's card:




My card today uses fall colors and a thanksgiving theme.





I've used two different images, both from Daisy Doodles. I used the corn image twice and also used the Rebecca image. All images were colored with Promarkers and cut out by hand. I used three different papers from my stash. The sentiment is hand stamped, from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set by Stampin Up. I punched the sentiment with an oval punch, sponged it and then matted it on a scalloped oval. The sentiment and images are all attached using foam mounting tape for dimension and 3D effect.

Owl Wow! Look At That Creepy Tree!

Hey Hey Hey! Are you folks following the 12 Days of Halloween at Simply Betty Stamps? I am! I love love love Betty's Stamps and would love a chance at a term on her DT! I realize I may not be good enough, but I'm gonna try and see what happens!

This project is for Day 1. We were asked to do a project with an owl and a creepy tree on it. I admit, It was a challenge for me, to find a creepy tree! But then I found this creepy paper in my stash and it seemed perfect! I complimented the creepy scene paper with a scrap of orange and black stripes from my stash, then trimmed it with black faux lace.

My card uses the sketch at Sketches By Carly. The image is by Simply Betty Stamps. I went with the black and white look for my image this time. I seen a challenge for it and it looked like fun! Not to mention, it makes her look really creepy, doesn't it?I think she turned out to look very cool and makes a nice addition to the scene in the paper. The Owl and pumpkin is a dimensional three layered embellishement from K & C Company. My cousin and I searched all over Michael's to find the perfect owl for this! And believe me, it wasn't easy! I fell in love with this owl when I seen him and had to have him specifically for this project! Don't you just love his wiggly eyes?!

Hope you enjoyed my project! I had fun making it!
