Use Yellow at Crafty Catz

Hello and happy Friday! It's my last post as a guest designer at Crafty Catz and it's gone by super fast. The theme is always anything goes but we would love to see some yellow on your creations. The sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps and my card features the Mouse - Big Flower image (one of my favorites). For all the challenge details and design team inspiration click HERE. I hope to see your creation in the gallery!

A miss you sentiment seemed appropriate for this image and this one by Hampton Arts (Jillibean Soup Handwritten Sentiments) had never been used. All patterned papers are from the For The Record 2 paper pad by Echo Park (2012). To color the image Copic markers were used and then it was die cut with a stitched circle die by My Favorite Things. A little stamped and punched yellow butterfly was added along with three glimmer dots and that's it. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful rest of your day.

The last couple of days have been super hot here in Oklahoma. In the morning my outdoor rabbits will be eating grass but in the afternoon they are laying around in my flowerbeds where it's shady. I like to watch them, so I usually check on them several times a day. Below is a picture out my back window of one laying down by the bushes. My hubby put the white piece of lattice up to help give more shade and the rabbit will lay under it. The birds love to use the lattice to rub their head and bodies on, it's fun to watch. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!

Hello and happy Friday! It's time for a new challenge at Crafty Catz and this week the theme is Think Summertime.

Summer Fun at Crafty Catz

Hello crafty friends! This month I have the honor of being a guest designer at the Crafty Catz Challenge and today is the start of a Summer Fun theme challenge. The sponsor this week is The Paper Shelter and they provided the design team with a couple of wonderful digital images to create with. Unfortunately my old printer decided to die, the poor thing had been making an awful noise for months, but that meant no digital images for me. So, I've used a House-Mouse Designs image called Umbrella Nap and colored it with Copic markers. We would love for you to join the Summer Fun challenge! Click HERE for all the challenge details and design team inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

This Summer Fun Card is entered into the following challenges: Cute Card Thursday (Anything Goes), Through The Purple Haze (At the Beach) and Tuesday Throwdown (The Great Outdoors).
