Toadally Awesome...

And now for my last card share for the day...

A card for the Design Team at SKdigis Challenge Blog

Our challenge theme is Black and White plus One

 

 

For my card I used the Happy Frog image

Colored with my Copic markers, then cut the image in a oval shape

I layered my papers as shown in the photo

My sentiment was created by me on the computer, circle punched with banners

Twine and black brads finish the card.

 

I hope you can join in on the challenge this week.

Fun images, quick to color and awesome to work with.

Make a Splash...

This share is for my Design Team post for Fantabulous Cricut,

Challenge #123 - Jump In and Cool Off!

Make a project with a water theme (pool, beach, water park, etc...)

I have to admit that some of these challenges really are challenging for me.

I do not have many cartridges, so I really need the Creative Mojo at times.

Well, after looking through all my cartridges, this is what I made:

I used the "Simply Charmed" cartridge, page 50 <Sun2> cut at 1".

I also found this great slide in the 'Recess" Lite cartridge, cut at 4".

I eliminated his shoes and shirt, added sponging and doodle lines.

The sentiment was created by me on the computer.

Perfect water park slide!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Have a Fantablous Day...

Have a...

Flippin' awesome summer!

This morning my sharing is a card I created for The Cutting Cafe,

using the Flip Flop card and a sentiment from the Flip Flop Laundry Line.

I used the front piece of the flip flop only.

I tucked a little envelope inside the border piece, which I made into a pouch.

Tuck a gift card inside this little envelope:

Jamba Juice, Starbucks, your favorite ice cream/yogurt shop, or even for a pedicure.

Make sure to check out the Design Team Inspiration posted Wednesday of each week.

Leave some comment LOVE, letting us know what you think.

One randomly selected winner from those comments will win 3 sets of their choice from the store.

Enjoy your Tuesday
