So yesterday was the start of the color challenge at
The Outlawz. The colors for the week are pink, red, and white. If you're busy working on your Valentine cards, this might be the challenge for you!!
Since today is Wednesday, the challenge that starts today is a
sketch challenge. I'm on the sketch DT, and would be SO happy if some of you joined in this week! Here's the card I made for the week:
I'm going to send this card to my grandmother for her birthday. Before you ask, that is not a young lady with gray hair; this girl represents my grandmother. Kind of... Her hair isn't long and hasn't been naturally gray in years, but she is about this color and wears gray wigs... (Don't y'all tell her I put her business out in the street like that!!) The image is Flying Birthday Girl from
Michelle Perkett Studio and has been colored with Copics. All the paper is from The Paper Studio; the cupcake paper is from the Sugar and Spice stack. The heart brads are from Making Memories. They were also colored with Copics. The sentiment is from Hero Arts. You guys know I don't have a a Cuttlebug or a neat Cricut or Silhouette, right? That border at the bottom is really the top of a piece of paper that was hit with the Heartbeat MS punch! I was trying to use it on the front but couldn't figure out how to make that work, so...
Don't forget to stop by

ReplyDeleteI am surviving our 'Blizzard' and very thankful that we never LOST any power...Phew!!! Here on the coast, the snow did change to rain for awhile and that really helped kept our totals down, but some areas have at least a foot or close to two! YUK!!
