It will end on Wednesday April 4, Hope you will join us you can use any kind of medium for coloring your image, how great is that.  This is another thing I love about The Outlawz challenges you can use Any image or stamp you want as long as it fits the theme of the challenge!  Just love these two images and these are from Mo Manning The little girl is called “Come out and play” and the boy is called “Kitchen Knight” these are so much fun to color. This was just a simple card and I thought the sentiments would be so cute with these two little ones. I did add some diamond glaze and some grass fibers.

Butterflies 2012

Hello everyone! Hope you are having a great week. Here is a card I did with one of the vintage images from Nicecrane Designs. She is such a cutie. I also can share the design sheet with you so if you would like to color any of these cuties please feel free to do so. It is called Kiddie Land. I hope I made it big enough for you to get a good copy. You should be able to right click and SAVE PICTURE AS.

For me I just kept it simply. I thought with the fly swatter she is holding I would add some butterflies on flowers. The butterfly punch is from Martha Steward. Used the Pearl Pen color Sunny Yellow. Ribbon matched her hat so well. These are the copic markers I used to color her in.

Beautiful Moments 2012
I put this card together for our club. I made one and cute out all the supplies so the all the girls at club could make one of the cards. I got the idea from Kittie Kraft she has some wonderful cards and great ideas at her blog. The girls loved the card and it was so easy to make. The spellbinder was Fleurde Lis Rectangles. Both butterfly punches are from Martha Steward. I embossed the sentiment with detailed silver embossing power, I added the smallest stones I had.
