Stamp-n-doodle Tuesday!

Hello, welcome to Stamp-n-doodle Tuesday. All of this month we DT ladies were given a choice of two different images to work with, we could choose whichever one of the two we wanted to work with. Of course I keep choosing the wildlife animal images, I just can't help myself. This week's challenge over on the company blog is for the creation have an animal on it, which can be in the image. What a fun challenge!!! So, if you are an animal lover, you have got to join in on this challenge! So, here is what I came up with using the image called "The Peek":



Is it a great image or what? Wolves are such gorgeous creatures! With the awesome detail on this image, it really could stand alone with no coloring, but I was in the mood to add just a bit of color. I used Prismacolor cold gray markers on the wolf, and on the tree, I used Warm Gray markers. The background around the wolf, was colored with Stampin Up Bashful Blue Color Wonder Crayon and a blender pen. Of course I had to use the Stampin Up Top Note Di-cut, and the snowflakes are some little embellishments that I picked up on clearance at Michael's craft store. Hope you like it!

Now go visit the other DT ladies blogs, and then to the Stamp-n-doodle blog and join the challenge to win free digi images!

Come back and visit me again soon, I am working on some Valentine cards to show you!

Until next time.............Blessings, Lisa

Stamp-n-doodle Tuesday!

So sorry, but this is a very quick post today. I will try to get back on here another day and add some info for you. It is pouring down rain here in Ohio where I live and we live right next to a creek that looks like it may flood, so I may have to make a temporary move from my apartment. Needless to say, my nerves are on edge. Please enjoy the image Daydreaming:

Stamp-n-doodle Tuesday!

Welcome to Stamp-n-doodle Tuesday! I was so sick last week with my annual Fall sinus attack, plus I had to work all week at my new job! Yay! I am now employed! Anyhoo, Since I was unable to post last week, I have two cards to show you this week. The first one is a new image that all of the DT ladies are posting with today called "Snowman". I am using one of my favorite sketches that I designed myself on a square 5x5 card. Here it is:



Using the same color scheme, but different sketch and last week's image, here is card number two:

Stamp n Doodle Thursday!

Welcome to Stamp-n-doodle Thursday! We DT ladies got to work with an image from their wildlife collection called "Call of the Wild". First I have to say, that the wildlife collection is my favorite from Stamp-n-doodle. I love all things "animal" and please Lynne make more of them! I am writing down some ideas to send your way!

Anyhoo, you know me, I love a simple sketch, it keeps the card looking so clean and doesn't detract from the image. I colored the moon with a prismacolor marker, and then used a Copic blender pen to take away a little bit of the color. Yes, the Copic blender pen does work a little bit, and I stress a little bit with the prismacolor markers. Obviously it works perfectly with it's own kind. Since I am on a tight budget being unemployed, I only own 2 Copic markers at the moment. Sniff Sniff. LOL Someday I will have more. I colored the rest of the image with my Stampin Up chalk pastels (Handsome Hunter, Going Gray, Chocolate Chip, and Elegant Eggplant). The card base is SU Crumb Cake, Elegant Eggplant, and then a metallic Silver by DCWV. The ribbon is from Michael's craft store, and so are the dark purple gem accents.

Now, hop on over to the other DT blogs and the SND blog and see what inspiration they have for you to see!

Come back tomorrow and visit me, I am off to schedule a post of a card where I have used some gorgeous gold outline stickers!

Until then...................Blessings, Lisa

Stamp-N-Doodle Thursday

Hello everyone, happy Thursday to all of you! This week at Stamp-n-doodle we were asked to create something with an image called Snow Jamboree. It is a cute little image of some snow people playing music and singing Christmas songs. Please notice the adorable little bunnies and birds listening so intently, they are so cute. Here is what I came up with:

I used my prismacolor pencils to color the image, and I used some card stock from The Paper Company, Provocraft and DCWV. The ribbon source is unknown because it was given to me, and I popped up the image with some foam dimensionals. Of course I used my Spellbinder's Nestibilities circles to cut the image out. I am kind of bummed with the photo today, the blue card stock is pearlescent and that didn't show up on the photo, it looks cool in person.

Well, hop on over to the SND blog and the other DT ladies and see what they have created for you to see.

Still working on ornaments and my Zibbet store (urgh!).

Until next time......... Blessings, Lisa

Stamp n Doodle Thursday!

Welcome to Stamp-n-doodle Thursday! We were given an image of some caroling reindeer and asked to use that one or any other image that inspired us today. I chose the one that we were supposed to use last Thursday, because I was out of town for the holiday and didn't get to post with it. It is the cutest little critter under a big hat holding a snow shovel. I love this little guy, he is so cute! We got some snow flurries here in Ohio where I live and I felt inspired to use something snowy. So, look below, and enjoy the critter cuteness!

I used some smooch shimmer paint to color the hat and mittens, and the rest was colored with my prismacolor pencils. The card stock used is SU whisper White, DCWV shimmer blue, and an unknown patterned paper from my stash. The embellishments is a snowflake button from my button stash, sorry I can't remember where I got it from.

Hop on over to visit the other DT members and see what they came up with today, then go over to the SND blog (link on my sidebar), and see the wonderful Christmas and winter images they have to offer.

Until next time...........Blessings, Lisa
