Challenge Time

 

For those who love challenges, there is always something fun going on. Here are a few weekend challenge cards that I have thrown together. . . first for sketch challenge #79 over at Stars & Stamps and another for the Copic / Marker challenge over at Crafting By Design.

As you can see I have hauled out my stash of Halloween / Fall already and I am really resisting the urge to go wild with Halloween projects. . . Halloween is my favorite holiday and I just love all of the great cute and spooky paper crafting products that are out there!

I got this great digi stamp from Bugaboo . . they have some really great digi’s and sentiments too. The inside of this one says, “Today’s witches ride swiffers.”  Bwahaha! I am a big fan of the Swiffer mop. Truly. I turned this week’s sketch sideways for this project to fit the stamp. . . but I might have to follow this sketch again because it was a whole lot of fun.

This chillin’ cat is from Hambo . . . now really. how else is a black cat supposed to cool off in a heat wave like this?

That’s all for today. . . hubby and I are Chilling Out too and might go catch Captain America at the theater here in a bit. . . hey, they’ve got AC.  :)

Your Copic skills are wonderful. I love your swiffer witch and how you used ribbon instead of paper!

Love this! Awesome idea to use ribbons for your narrow strips! Might have to copy that. Thanks for playing along in this week's OWH Stars & Stamps Sketch Challenge!

Love, love, love Stella as a Swiffer witch! Too funny. I adore Bubaboo's Stella and have done many cards with her as the focal point for OWH. Your coloring is fabulous, the ribbon and stitching really creative! TFS
