As Labor Day weekend ends, I am pausing to post a bunch of cards I've made over the past several days. First up is this action packed doggie card I made using the sketch at MFT #609. I used some images I had previously stamped using borrowed stamps. I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stamp It, Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes and Shopping Our Stash #478: Animal Antics.
Next up is a card I CASed from my BFF Kim, using these really cut foxes from Avery Elle Party Fox. I was inspired by the collaboration challenges at Color Hue #48: Navy & Lime Green and Seize the Birthday #246. I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stamp It, Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes and Shopping Our Stash #478: Animal Antics.
Continuing on with the theme of using images I stamped a while back, I have this little cutie floating on a striped raft, inspired by the challenge at CAS on Friday #239: Stripes. I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stamp It and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.
The next two cards were inspired by a technique I saw in a recent video by Jennifer McGuire. I like how they came out, but they were more time consuming than I had expected. Each die cut required 3 white layers and a colored layer. When the entire card was done, I used Versa Mark ink to stamp a screen grid pattern on all of the dogs. I am entering both of these cards at Inkspirational #273: Repetition (dogs/horses), Just Add Ink #691: Masculine, Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stamp It, Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes and Shopping Our Stash #478: Animal Antics.
Last up is a holiday card using these wonderful penguins from MFT Tweet Holidays. I was inspired by the colors at MFT Color Challenge #195, Addicted to CAS #228: Birds, Addicted to Stamps and More #437: Christmas, CAS Christmas: Sparkle and Shine (the pom poms on the hats are all glittered up), Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stamp It, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.
