Kickin' Up Your Heels for Autumn

 Deedee's digis is sponsoring the Crafter's Cafe Challenge #133 this week with a "create a sky scene" theme. I guess you could say this is a one-of-a-kind sky, because I've added some specks of dirt along with some candy corn in celebration of Autumn being just around the corner. You won't too often find either of those items in any sky scene that I'm aware of, but hey! I'm strange! LOL The image is a new one from Deedee's digis called "Fall Kick Off" and it was pre-colored, so all I did was print it out and add a few extras. The lower sentiment panel is from another of Deedee's sets called "Fall Warm Up." Since Autumn is the yummiest time of the year, I thought I'd toss in a few pieces of candy corn, so I just glued 3 strips of the right colors together and fussy-cut a few candy corn pieces to scatter about. The grass was done with 2 different grass dies from SNSS and the twine was in my stash. The dsp was a snippet from my stash, but I'm sorry I don't know who makes it.

I'm also going to share this over at Pixie's Snippets Playground #194.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to come play along with Deedee's September progressive challenge to win a free digital stamp set in October! Details can be found here.

Let your dreams soar!

Deedee's Digis is sponsoring the challenge going on over at the Crafter's Cafe Challenge #123 called "summer fun" so I made this card using Deedee's Digis "Lifted Up" pre-colored stamp set. I used eggplant and turquoise colors, and framed the image using a retired SU! corner punch. I added some mini brads in matching colors to the kite tail bows, and stamped in a few tree-tops using a MFP stamp set. I added a couple score lines to surround the sentiment panel just for fun.

Deedee's Digis new progressive challenge for July is now under way, so you'll want to click here for the details. If you play along, you'll win free digital stamps, and who doesn't like free stamps?!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you let your dreams soar too!

Caught a Bug?

Deedee's Digis is sponsoring the CraftersCafeChallenge #117 this week, so I've made a card to meet their challenge theme of "get well."

I used Deedee's Digis Goody Jar set and chose the line images, placing a bug inside of the jar and coloring everything with Copics. I die cut the panels with Lil Inkers stitched rectangle dies, then added some Island Indigo ribbon, along with a tiny bow made with lavender gingham ribbon. The cardstock is Pool Party, and for the final touch, I added a lavender heart-shaped brad to the bow on the top of the jar. The sentiment was computer generated.

I hope you're playing along with Deedee's May progressive challenge too, because when you do, you'll earn June's digi of the month completely free! Click here to get all the details and learn how to play along.

Animal Antics

Deedee's Digis is sponsoring the Crafters Cafe Challenge #112 this week, and that challenge is "Animal Antics." I used one of Deedee's fun pre-colored images called "Cow Are You" for my card today. I added some glitter pen detail work on the tail bow, and added some Candi Dots for accents. I split the sentiment (included in the set) into 3 separate words and matted them with matching cardstock just to add a fun touch to this cute image. The papers were from my stash, and I think they're BG, but I'm not sure as they were just loose in the bin. I die cut the panels with Lil Inker stitched rectangles and used a card base of Daffodil Delight cardstock.

Deedee's April progressive challenge is underway right now, and if you haven't played along before, you can get all the details right here. Everyone likes free digital images, right? Click the link above to find out how you too can earn free digis every month if you play along with us!
