With all this cold weather I just had to make a Spring-looking card.  This is Digi Darla's Garden Girl I image.  There are a number of digitals in this series.  I did a little fussy cut around her and placed her on a bed of flowered designer paper.   She is colored with Copic markers.  On the left side is a more ornate piece which was made by stamping (unknown) an orgnate scrollwork on cardstock.  The sentiment was made with the omputer and reads "I'm Tickeled Pink when I grow a beautiful flower."

For week two I chose Digi Darla's Party Flamingo. Since it is a digital image I was able to create two facing flamingos which I printed and colored with pencils and outlined with silver gel pen. Decorative papers and stickers complete my festive card. These flamingos are tickled pink to be celebrating!

Rene

I used the cute Digidarla's Blessing of Heaven 3 for my pink baby card. The card has layers of solid pink and white and a paper doily and bow to create a 'window'. The coloured image was fussy cut and 3D'd on top. Some glitter pen add a little sparkle. I'm looking forward to see some more fabulous pink creations this week!

 

 

My sponsor is Digi Darla again this week.  They have a great array of digital images for every theme.  You must go by the site and check it out.  They are offering some of their digital to the random generated winner of this challenge so scroll down and take part.

This week I incorporated all shades of pink I could get hold off on my tag ... from very pale pink to red-pink and complemented it with just a bit of turquoise. The wonderful bird image is again from our sponsor Digi Darla. I printed it, cut it out and coloured it with Copics. The background is inked and stamped with distress inks. As embellishments I added some little blings and a little flower.

A very pink card using an Angie Delarie image and other pink embellishments!

 

 

Challenge #52 - "Tickled Pink"

I am so pleased that I had so many to enter my first challenge after the break the the Design Team and I took.  I hope everyone will return for future challenges and help spread the word about my challenges. 

I have made one improvement, I hope, to the challenges and that is I am  posting the upcoming challenges on my sidebar.  This way, you can plan ahead.  However, if you will, please do not enter more than two entries per challenge.  We want to be able to comment on everyone's entry. The main reason I use the random generator is to give everyone a chance no win no matter her/his level of crafting. I hope beginners will win as well as advanced crafters.  The main purpose of the blog is to encourage one another.

The theme for the challenge is "Tickled Pink".  What we would like to see is a lot of pink or something that pleases you so much that you are tickled pink.

My inspirational card for this challenge uses a cute Digi Darlas image of a boy hissing a little girl.  .  I used Copic markers to color the image. This card is a little different in that the sentiment is larger than the image.  The sentiment is fabric.   The border is a diecut from Cheery Lynn Designs. I thought this would make a perfect Valentine card.

Michele

For my pink creation I used a lovely Digi Darla angel image and colored her with pencils and a gold gel pen. She is cradled in an oval shape distressed with pink ink and laid on decorative origami paper. The base is pink card stock. I could easily use this as a Valentine by adding a Valentine sentiment but it could also be a non traditional Christmas card. There are such a wide variety of lovely Digi Darla images to work with that whoever wins this prize will have a happy time playing!

Sharon

I've used a great fun image "Coffee Grandma" for this die cut card. She has been coloured with Copic Markers and cropped using a new set of dies I recently purchased. I've added some embellishments: feathers, fibre and bling to finish it off!

 

Petra

Sooooo sweet ... this little baby girl asleep. This is one of Darla's darling images on a mini card. I printed the image twice and layered it to make the image pop. The patterend papers are digital papers, the sentiment stamped. As embellishments I added organza ribbon and a little bling.

Rene

The image I am working with is the Paisly Peacock. Paisley made me think of pink.
I coloured the image with my pencils and fussy cut the paisley parts out 2 extra images. I layered the image and added some gems and; glitter. If you wondered, I'm tickled pink with how it turned out.
Looking forward to see your creations!

Celebrate

Digi Darla is having a "Celebrate" challenge.  Drop in to their site to enter.  My inspirational piece is using a Bugaboo image on a tag.  The celebration is one of a Mexican festival,  I used a number of folk Mexican images and the flag around the main Bugaboo image.  The background on the tag is strips of alcohol ink giving the feel of Mexico.  Coloring was done with Copic markers.

Spring Showers

Here is a little quilted-type card I made for Digi Darla's challenge April Showers.  I used some scrap paper for the background and placed it behind the image.  Even though the little turtle is in the rain there is a little sunshine coming out.  T

Boy with Flower

Isn't this a cute image of a boy with a flower?  He is probably bringing it to his mother.  The precious image is by DigiDarla  You must drop by her site to see what she has.  I used a bright blue diecut to emphasize the image on the background of letters.  A ribbon and bow of yellow act as a contrast color.   He is colored with Copic markers.  The sentiment is from an unknown stamp that I have had for quite a while.

Falling Leaves

Here is a little card I made with Darla's cute little kitten watching the leaves fall.  I put the image on multiple different layers and colored the image with Copic markers.  Additional leaves were punched from paint chips and added to the card. 

This card was created for Digi Darla's Fall challenge and I am also entering it in Simon's Says Stamp and Show's Show your Stripes and Gingerloft Challenge Fall

Digi Darla's Wings and Things

Here is a little card I made  as inspiration for Digi Darla's  "Wings and Things" challenge.  It is a very quick and simple card.  I used her dugital of an angel and colored it with Copic markers.  The image is placed on a double diecut mat.  The lacey paper trim was made with a border punch.  The sentiment was a bought alphabet embellishment.  If you have a chance, take a hop to her site and enter her challenge.
