Another challenge entry...woo hoooo! Look at me go!!!! LOL


I am entering this card in the "IT must be the MUSIC" challenge over at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz blog.

This image - Lady Victoria - was inspired by "My Immortal" by Evanescence.  I think this girl looks like Amy Lee, and it is one of my favourite songs!   I have coloured her with Copics & AT you Spica pens.  When I showed Tim this image & asked him what song he thought of, he said "Bow, chicka, bow bow"  (LOL) What a dirty dog eh????

The CS is Hero Arts layering paper and the flowers, ribbon & rhinestones are from my stash. The CS is from My Minds Eye - a beautiful life paper pack. 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Wednesday!!!
Hugs,
Chris

Sassy Studio challenge entry......


Well, I must say I LOVE rainy Sundays!!!!  I got to play in a couple challenges that I haven't in a long time! This weeks challenge at DARE TO BE SASSY is monochromatic yellow!!!

So I printed up Flapper Femme, from Sassy Studios  and set to work with all sorts of shades of yellow!!!! Monochromatic cards ARE my favourite, I try to get out of that "box" but I love them!!!!!  And when I'm told too, how can I resist???? I'm not crazy about her hair colour, but I love her yellow flapper dress!!!!  What an era - I would have loved to have lived then!!!  How fun!!!!

I coloured her with Copics and used a yellow crochet flower that I bought from Etsy awhile ago.  The ribbon is from my stash!  The CS is Bazzill and the DP is ???????????  (Guess is as good as mine!!! LOL)

I am also entering this in the Totally Gorjuss challenge which is Something Yellow! (thanks for the heads up Samantha!!!)

Have a great week!!!!
Hugs,
Chris

Love to Create - ANYTHING GOES!!

(PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO SEE MY SECOND POST FOR TODAY!)

Good morning everyone!!! Happy Monday!!!!! 

This week the LOVE TO CREATE Challenge is ANYTHING GOES!!!!! And we (well, actually, Jackie....) are sponsoring this prize!!! It's a good one so be sure to check it out!!!!

Here is my card for the week!

I have used FERGUS with bouquet from Wild Rose Studio.  I got this stamp from Care2Stamp, so be sure to check it out! Tell Kim I sent you!!!!!   
The CS is Taken with Teal (SU) and the DP is from a card kit I have had for EONS (I THINK it is My Minds Eye but not 100% sure!)  I thought I'd make a more masculine card in case I ever need one!!!  I have coloured him with Copics.  I am experimenting with outlining my images with grey to stand them out a bit...not sure if I'm doing it right, or if it looks how it is supposed to look, but I'm trying! Any pointers????

Head on over to the challenge blog to check it out!!! HOPE to see you joining us!!!!!
Hugs,
Chris
