SOS506 - Color Me Beautiful

I made this card for our new challenge at Shopping Our Stash where we want participants to feature their favorite coloring media.

For my card I used an image I had in my stash forever - it was given to me by someone so I don't even know what brand it is - maybe Whiff of Joy or Sugar Nellie but not sure.

I colored it with Prismacolor pencils and added a sentiment that I also found in my stamped stash box.

Ribbon, patterned paper and rhinestones are all from Stampin Up

CCK - Autumn Falls

I'm back with another Fall themed creation by Ching Chou Kuik. This one uses an image called Autumn Falls.

Image was colored with a mix of Prismacolor pencils and alcohol markers. I used fall colors for papers and a little acorn for embellishment. Added some shimmer with Wink of Stella. 

CCK - Autumn Breeze Fairy

I'm back with another fall inspired Ching Chou Kuik creation. For this one I used an image called Autumn Breeze Fairy.

Gardening Gnomes

This set of cards was done with sketch from Call Me Crafty Al  Sheetload of Cards August Video - that uses 2 sheets of 12x12 papers. The sketch is pretty simple so I decided to add a gnome to each card. 

I used the gardening gnomes by Jaded Blossom and also matching sentiments from the same release. I made 4 boy and 4 girl gnomes and used scraps for die cutting.

I participate in various seed swap groups and these cards will be perfect to accompany the seeds.

I'm back with another mermaid from Beautiful Tails Collection - this one is called Flowing Crimson

CCK - Autumn Sea

This is a card I made for Ching-Chou Kuik's Challenge blog - I used an image called Autumn Sea and you can find it in a 5 pack of mermaids called Beautiful Tails 

Mermaid was colored with alcohol markers, fussy cut and added to the backgroud made with acrylic paints. For embellishments I just added a couple of light blue sequins and a stamped and die cut sentiment.

SSS March kit

I decided to finally use my Simon Says Stamp kit from March of this year - I made these 7 cards using mainly the materials from  the kit  + cardstock and embellishments. 

I still have a bunch of papers left so I will be making more for sure.
