Fashionista

Here is a card I made for the Fashionista challenge at Art with No Boundaries.   My image is from CS Designs.  The dress form was colored with Copic markers.  To fulfill the qualifications of the callenge, I used stickers of dress accessories and a Sale sign.  If  you have a chance drop by the blog and take part in the challenge.

Dots and More Dots

You will see a lot of dots in my paper for the next couple of cards/ projects as I recently bought a pack of cardstock that was nothing but dots.  I love the cardstock and all the papers can go together in a mixed-matched fashion--oh what fun!

My first card is one I made with a CS Designs digital that is part of the Express Yourself series.  The green card has mats of large dots and the mat behind the image has small dots of the same color scheme.  Inside is a sentiment digital of CS Designs.  The three round stick-on letters spell "Dance". 

This card is for the "Let the Dancer in you Escape"  theme on  Art with No Boundaries' present challenge.  Put on your dancing shoes and join in. 

This will be entered in Digi Doodle's Anything Goes.

My Heart is Dangling

Here is a card that is a little unusual.  This one has a dangling heart. .The front of the card is very simiple.  It has only a mat.  My designer paper is full of hearts of various shades of red, and messages of love.  I made a simple holder for the heart by using one of my Spellbinders and made a circle from cardstock.  On top of that is a pearl brad.  From the brad a silver cord is hanging.  The heart was then attached to the cord by another brad.  The heart is an image from CS Designs.  Using my Copic marker I colored part of it red and in one of the squares I put a little bling with Stickles.

Chris of CS Designs is having a "All You Need is Love" challenge on her blog Art with No Boundaries.   You still have a number of days to join in on the challenge.

I am entering this in Basic Grey's Valentine Challenge.

New Blog on the Net

There iw a  new blog on the net,  It is Art with No Boundaries and it is having  it's first challenge.This week's theme is the Ocean, Aquatic, Nautical.  Look at all the possibiities you have here...anchors, ships, shells, mermaids.  The list is endless so you must join in on the fun.

The challenge rules are very easy and simple.  You do not have to use a CS Designs stamp to enter the challenges on this blog,  but do drop by and see Chris' art stamps she has for sale.  In any case, pick up the logo below and pass the word.

This is my card for the first challenge.  It, of course, uses a CS Design stamp.  The bright coloring was done with Copic markers.  The background reminded me of a quilt pattern so I colored it accordingly.  The colors I used were for sand, netting, sun and coral which are all part of the beach.

I could not find the seashells that I have in the garage from the many trips to the beach, so I made my own out of paper and put in a couple of pearls with a pearl pen.
