Adorable Animals - #2 by Pickled Potpourri





Here is my second card to show you from the Pickled Potpourri digital set called Adorable Animals.  This is Lamb!  Isn't it a precious little animal to say "thinking of you" and "you are in my prayers"?  For my card I used background patterned paper from Crate Paper (Farmhouse and Story Teller).  The image is cut out with Spellbinders Labels 8. The sentiment is from Rose Sentiments by Pickled Potpourri.  I colored the lamb with Copic markers (R30, R000, R83, R85, R89, N0, N1, T5, T0, YG93, YG95, YG97).  And lastly I added some pink jewels.

Focus on Stamping - Anything Goes by Red Rubber Inspirationals


Today's Red Rubber Inspirational challenge is Anything Goes with a focus on stamping.  I love this sweet stamp called Amelia from Jackson and Amelia Cling Foam stamps by Red Rubber Designs.  I've stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with Copic Markers and then cut a circle and matted her with a scallop edge from a Spellbinders die.  The sentiment is computer generated.  It seemed to fit her expression.  The background paper is from my paper stash. Hope you like her too.     

Come join this challenge with some of your favorite stamps.

International "Talk Like a Pirate" Day with Little Miss Muffet


Today is International "Talk Like a Pirate Day", so I am using a Little Miss Muffet stamp called Swings 'n Slides Pirate to join in their Anything Goes Challenge.


I really had fun coloring this little fella with my Copic markers.  The sentiment is from Treasure Seeker by Red Rubber Designs.  The background bandana paper is My Mind's Eye, and I embossed the blue cardstock with a Sizzix Embossing Folder.  The image is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and cut into an oval shape with my Coluzzle cutter.  I put a yarn rope around the oval.  

Thanks for looking at my blog.

Adorable Animals - #1 by Pickled Potpourri





For the next few weeks I want to show you some cards made with this whimsical digital image set from Pickled Potpourri.  It is called Adorable Animals.

The first card is made with Duck from this set.  I used background paper from Crate Paper (Farm House).  The image is cut out with Spellbinders Lattice Rectangles and matted on another piece of patterned paper from Crate Paper (Farm House).  The sentiment is from Elegant Greetings by Pickled Potpourri.  I colored the image with Copics (YG93. YG95, YG97, Y13, Y15, Y17, YR12, YR15, YR16).  I added an orange gingham ribbon and bow and some Crystal Stickles on the flowers.

Path of Positivity Challenge - Determination - with Pickled Potpourri


I made this card for the Path of Positivity Challenge - Determination.  The challenge made me think of this silhouette image from Pickled Potpourri called Fly.  Have you ever wished you could fly?  I have.  There is something about a swing when one is high in the air that seems almost like flying.  So if you are determined to fly, just grab a swing and take off!  

My card uses digital papers from Pickled Potpourri.  The stripped paper is from the Distressed Black and White collection, and the pattern is from the More Distressed Black and White collection.  I cut the image using Spellbinders Standard Circles Large and matted it using Classic Scalloped Circles Large with black cardstock.  Rhinestones were added around the circle.
