Can You Digi It? Challenge 4

Good morning everyone!  I'm here with a new challenge for the Can You Digi It? blog!  This one is especially cool, even though it took me a while to figure out what I was going to do!  It IS called a challenge, yes?  DENIM & LACE!  Look at all these scrummy inspiration photos!  Just link up your project on the blog and see if you're the next winner!!!

I went with another of Carla's Creatures called Panda with Baby.  It comes just as you see here...colored and shaded beautifully!  Quick cards if you know what else you want to do!  LOL!  My daughter retired a pair of jeans a week or so ago and I used a strip of them to make my denim flower with some lace for the center.  :O)

I do so hope you'll come on over and join us at CYDI?!

Stock Spotlight Saturday at CYDI?!

Good afternoon, my sweets!  Sorry I'm late with my post today...I should have had this scheduled like a good girl.  My brother-in-law had emergency surgery to remove his appendix yesterday and I was at the hospital with my sister.

Are you ready for the Stock Spotlight at Can You Digi It?  I know you are if you love all things sparkly!  Today we have Zva Creative's Wheels in the spotlight.  CYDI? has 2 different wheels...one with pearls and one with rhinestones.  They come in 2 different sizes and many great colors!  These are amazing especially if you use Embellie Gellie to handle them.  EG is truly the stuff of miracles!!!  A must have if you use tiny embellishments!
I used the image called I'm Sorry by Carla's Creatures along with 3 different colors of the rhinestones to match my paper.



Thanks so much for popping in today!  MWAH!

Be My Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day again, my sweets!  I hope your day is being filled with love!  I'm here with the 3rd challenge for the Can You Digi It? Blog!  This round we have a sweet collage for your inspiration.  This challenge is called PUPPY LOVE.  Awwww!
Is this image cute, or what?  Doesn't he look sorry that he gnawed on the paper before he brought it in?  It is called Stressed Mutt by KiniArt.  I stamped the little sentiment from PTI on it after I printed and colored.  I used Newsprint Candi Dots that are brand spanking new to the CYDI? store.  I colored them to match my project with my Copics...I thought they were appropriate with the sweet dog bringing in the newspaper, but I didn't like the way the stark white looked.  In pops the R85 Copic to match this sweet DP from Glitz Design's Pretty in Pink paper pack, and voila!  Love it!  I also used a MS border punch and some fab ribbon trim from Hobby Lobby.





Come on over and join us for our PUPPY LOVE challenge!  We'd love to see what you come up with and win!  ;O)  MWAH!

Stock Spotlight Saturday with Can You Digi It?

Good morning party people!  I hope your Saturday has started out well.  Our Stock Spotlight Saturday at Can You Digi It? today is all about glitter paper!  This particular glitter paper is by American Crafts and it is absolutely amazing!  NONE, and I stress NONE, of the glittery goodness comes off of this paper!  It is super thin and absolutely beautiful!  Another cool thing?  You can color it with your Copics!  WOOT!

On my first card I made a clean and simple example to show off the paper.  I used Denim Stars on it...so pretty!  I took a photo from a bit of a side angle to really show off the super glitter and shimmer this paper gives you.  The sentiment is stamped on a nestie shape and is by PTI.  A little ribbon and some brads completes it.  :O)


On my second card I did color it with my Copics.  I used Silver Stripes on this one...yes, I said silver!  I made the flower out of one of my hubby's retired work shirts and added some off white rhinestones from Zva Creative's Crystal Wheel.  The sentiment is also stamped on a nestie shape and is by CTMH.  I punched some little leaves/branches with a MS punch.  Isn't this paper gorgeous colored?  It doesn't take away any of the shine and sparkle at all!


Thank you so much for popping in to see me today.  Scoot over to the CYDI? store and order some of this paper...you will not be disappointed, I promise!!!

Birthday Pugsly Christian is up first.  Isn't he so cute!  LOVE!  I actually made my card for today twice.  I disliked it very much the first time...which is the first one...so I revamped it later on in the day.

Snappy Valentine's Day!

So I'm a bit late in posting this, but you'll all forgive me, right?  It's challenge time over at Doodle Dragon Studios aka Dustin Pike's!  Jenn made our sketch and that's what you get to play with this week...just be sure to use a DDS image along with it!

I used one of the images from the December Members Folder.  Isn't he so cute?  Get it?  SNAPPY Valentine's Day?  LOL!  I colored him with my Copics and added some punched out hearts all around him.  I colored and outlined the hearts with a clear stardust pen by Jelly Roll for a little sparkle.  If I'm not mistaken, the DP is by Crate Paper.

You still have some time to join in our challenge, so pop on over and link up your entry using this sketch!  Mwah!
