Stampin' Rodeo VSN - Bring On The Clowns...Rodeo Clowns

Challenge #3 is "Bring On The Clowns...Rodeo Clowns" the challenge is to use at least 4 bright colors and to make something pop. I think I got it covered.

My image is from Dustin Pike and colored with Prismacolor Pencils. Nothing too special done to this card. I don't know what paper stack I got the paper from. It was in my misc. scrap pile.

I'm saving this card for my little brother, he turns 21 this year!

Stampin' Rodeo VSN - The Grand Entry

Howdy Y'all!! I'm taking part in the Virtual Stamp Night at Splitcoaststampers again. Tonight is the Mini event. The Main event will take place August 26th and 27th. If you have some free time stop by and join us it's tons of fun!!

Challenge #1 is "The Grand Entry" the challenge is to make a card using flags or pennants. I choose pennants cause they are so cute on a baby card and I need lots of baby cards right now!!

My image is from Dustin Pike and colored with Prismacolor pencils then blended with baby oil. The flowers were left over from another card and were perfect for this one. The small stamps on the pennants are from the Baby Barrel of Stamps from the Paper Studio. Background paper is from DCWV Baby Boy Nursery paper stack.

More Graduation Cards

I sponged this background and stamped the flowers in black. Then used a white gel pen to highlight the water. The sentiment is computer generated.

On the inside I used a Doodle Dragon Studios image. 

Colored it with Prismacolor pencils and blended it with baby oil.

I made this graduation card awhile ago and forgot to upload it.

This card has a matching bookmark and money or a gift card fits where the bookmark is.

I used daubers to make the backgrounds. The butterflies are punched from paper I painted and outlined with a purple glitter gel pen.   

 

Father's Day Cards

A little late as usual.... I made this one for Tony. Right now my son's favorite thing to say is "Follow Me" and of course loves cars and trucks. Inside we stamped his handprints with the year and his age. The images are from Doodle Dragon Studios. Colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil.

This one I made for my father-in-law he's a farmer so I got to have a bit of fun with this one. The images are all from Doodle Dragon Studios. They are colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil.

Graduation Card

Its Graduation time!! I made this card for an 8th grade graduate. Her favorite color is purple but the bright colors of this card were inspired by the cupcake picture over at Cupcake Inspirations.  I'm entering it in the challenge there.

  

Image is from Bugaboo Stamps. Colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil.

These bears are from Doodle Dragon Studios. Colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil.

Lots and lots of graduations this year!! I'll be back with more soon!

Pink, pink and more pink!

Yay! I finally figured out how to watermark thru Sketchbook Pro! So I decided to go back to the beginning and mark all the cards I have made so far in case I need it in the future. Luckily I have only been at this for just over 6 months but it still turned into a full days work! The point of this is that I found a couple cards that I never posted. So here are a few of them that just also happened to be pink!

I made this card for the VSN challenge that I hosted in May. My challenge was to make a card that was tough and girly. I had tons of fun with that one! My image is from Dustin Pike's Doodle Dragon Studios and colored with Prismacolor pencils then blended with baby oil.

Another Doodle Dragon Studios image from Dustin Pike. Also colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil. For the part with the hearts I used stencils to dry emboss then lightly added a touch of pink with sponge daubers. I traced the large hearts with stickles then added some shimmer spray to top it off. 

For this one I decided to draw my own golf tee then used sponge daubers for the sky background, stamped the grass then cut a 2" circle and used a colored pencil to draw and lightly shade the divets for the golf ball.

Now for the pinkest of the pink! I sponged the background then used the same color ink to stamp the flowers. I'm not sure where I got this image from so if anyone knows please let me know so I can give credit to this cute little guys creator! I colored him with Prismacolor pencils and blended with baby oil.

Whew! That was a long one!! Heading back to my office now to finish up the father's day cards I'm working on...will I ever stop waiting until the last minute????
