Cas(e) this Sketch # 188

One more card for today. This one is for Cas(e) this Sketch # 188.

My card uses a set from Stampin' Up. 

The die cuts are a set from Mama Elephant. I colored the image with colored pencils. I'm not sure what company the flag die is from. It was sure fun to have a chance to participate in the challenge today! Thanks for stopping - see you next time!

Freshly Made Sketches # 252

I'm back again! Happy to be playing along today with Freshly Made Sketches # 252.  Here is the sketch:

This was a fun sketch to use! For my card I used one of Lawn Fawn's new adorable fall set! Love the little porcupine! I also used some of their beautiful fall plaid papers!

I also used the matching lawn cuts (dies). Lawn Fawn is just one of my favorite stamp companies. Their stamps always stamp so crisply and nice! I colored the porcupine with colored pencils on kraft paper. The stitched border is from Lil Inker Designs.

Thanks for visiting today!

Stop by again!

Tag You're It Challenge #55

Hello ! Happy Labor Day weekend! Finally had a moment to myself to make a tag. This one is for Tag You're It Challenge #55.
Here is the inspiration tag:

I was inspired to make a double tag. I love double tags -they are so much fun to make. From Melissa's design, I used some washi tape, a word and a rounded top tag.

The tag die is from Pretty Pink Posh, the ghost is a Cuttlebug die and the spooky word is from Lil Inker Designs. I thought the googly eyes added some fun dimension to the tag.

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope to see you again.
Enjoy the rest of your day!

Freshly Made Sketches #251

Better late than never! I am jumping in at the last moment for Freshly Made Sketches #51.

My card uses a cute set from Lawn Fawn. For some reason, I kept thinking of kraft and red color combo today. Here is what I came up with!

I stamped the skunk in brown ink and then colored with colored pencil. I love how color pops on the kraft paper. 

Here is the sketch:

Thanks for dropping by today!

See you next time!

Tag You're It Challenge 54 - Part 2

Here is my second entry for the Tag You're it Challenge 54.

My second tag uses the same ink and technique. This time I used a resist technique as well. I stamped the flower (Unity Stamps) in white ink and then embossed with clear powder. Then I distressed the tag with Salty Ocean distress ink and spritzed with water. 

Here is the inspiration tag:
