Friend card

A quick post tonight.  I was asked to do a "pretty" card for a friend, I hope she thinks this is pretty enough! It's much brighter IRL.  The digi stamp is by Cuddly Buddly. The papers are by Shabby Princess which I layered, I added some lace as per sketch I followed, sorry can't tell you whose, no name on it!      Stickled the balloons, and I bought the flower bouquet in "The Range"  All done in PS.
EDITED 12/7/11 I wanted to show you what second thoughts produce,  I am more pleased with this. What do you think?  I used some of the pins I had as a prize from KellyLou at Pink Paper Palace

All about Dance

I have been asked to do a funny bright 60th birthday card, I hope this is funny enough and bright enough. It's a digi stamp by Digi Darlas I love the fun this lady is having, found the saying on the web, it suited it so readily.  The DP's are by Shabby Princess. I coloured her in PS.


My next card today is for the LIM challenge requirements as follows -
These ONE LAYER CARD challenges seem to come around so quickly and here we are once more with another. Many LIMettes are now much more comfortable with this type of CAS card and each month we have some stunning contributions.
For our challenge today we would like to see 
SOMETHING WITH LEGS
This should give you plenty of scope, but please don't forget that we still need to see areas of white space and minimal embellishments on your entries.

Well here is white space and I went original and used the human form for legs lol! This is another 
Digi Darlas stamp, from here.  Aren't these amazing dancers?  I used a DP from Lydibug Garden and used Stickles for the glitter.  All colouring in PS.  I was able to use the same saying on both.
  
I am also going to add it to Digi Darlas Lady in Red challenge.

Could anyone tell me how do you find out what challenges are on, as I see some have a list as long as their arm.

Meljens sketch too late!

Before I came here I went to Meljens Designs for the sketch challenge using one of her stamps, however I was too late, drat!  I was going to upload it last night, but we had to visit the hospital and didn't get back until 10.30pm so didn't log on. I am still going to post it here as I think it's cute. Hope you do too.
It's a Meljens digi called Beach Bum Baby, with a sketch used in her challenge, I love this sketch and can see me use it a lot.  I also used Gina Jane at DAISIE shell and border, the digi paper is by Audrey Jean Roberts.  All done in PS as usual. I have 3D'd the sentiment and added an extra 3rd layer for the shell.  NO stickles this time lol

Color Challenge – cdaccc27

I have entered the card in a challenge at Crafters Digital Arts Center, the Freebie challenge using a digi stamp by Dowdy Doodles and using purple and yellow, I have used a Meljens Designs sketch, asstd digi papers, sorry no reference saved at the time, and a butterfly again not saved by name, all worked in PS, .
I am also entering the sketch challenge at Meljens Designs, I don't usually enter more than one challenge, hope I have it right for both blogs.

THE LIM CHALLENGE WEEK 22
For our challenge this week we would like to see you use 
SHADES of BLUE
You can use a white card base, but we do want to see more than one colour of blue, not just one!
 
This is my entry, I have made it in PS used gradient for the colours using layers, painted it, again using layers, sounds simple, but took me hours lol. Stickled her, I then cut the shapes out on my Cricut.  Can you see my "deliberate" mistake?  I coloured her bottom wings in as her dress, but I think I may get away with it, if you don't say anything to anyone. lol 
The fairy by Anita be Stamping is Follow me Fairy, you can get it here http://www.papercraftplanet.com/group/anitabestampin
