Alphabet challenge - Score

Friday May 15, 2026

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Alphabet Challenge

Theme: B - for Balls

So I googles what a soccer  ball looked like and I cut out circle and penciled in what I thought would work and then used a sharpie and a copic pen to fill it in. I used Ranger in to shadow the edges.. I think it looks pretty good. I did the bounce and added a hint of green to the ground.  I wanted a score so dug through a drawer with seldom used stamps and found these separate letter stamps and spelled out score and finished with a Paper trey ink sentiment.  I am really liking this card.

Hello and happy May

We have a new challenge over at

Aud Sentiments #337

Theme: Flowers / Embossing and always a sentiment

I made my card with Stampin up products except for the sentiment - PTI and banner die MFT. 

I had fun creating this card and trying to use paper for most parts vs. ink.  I always use copics and I know there are some pretty papers and I need to let them standout. I am pleased with the way this card came out, and the little embossed strip behind the florals. I finished with some diamond drills

Make my Monday #277

Theme:  Star wars day - anything to do with space

For my card.. It's funny I woke up yesterday thinking of this design so just went for it.

I stamped the image so I could figure size for arch.. image and sentiment is for My favorite things.

I colored with copics and used Tech. Tues die for sentiment. I took my Stampin up space dp and cut a arch. I took black cardstock and cut another arch. I used Oxide ink to color the frame. I added perfect pearls for stars.. I added to the card base and added the cute image.

Alphabet challenge - Happy bear-thday

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Alphabet challenge

Theme: in the air - plane/balloons/bird/  ----

I did a recycle.. My brother sent me a birthday card with these balloons on them and I loved them so took them off the card and thought some day I will use them. 

I created my background with my cloud and ground template I created using Ranger ink. 

I got this bear die (and others in the set) from Amazon.. I cut the bear out and used a watercolor pencils to give some shading. I added a black card stock behind the nose and used a pen to add the dyes and little mark under the nose. 

I added the balloons and bear and stamped the My favorite things sentiment.. I love how he came out.. I used a scrap for the scarf..
