DigiHaven-Christmas in July

Hi everyone! It's Stampede Week here in Calgary so it is a madhouse in this city for the next 10 days! We were gone early this morning for the first of our many pancake breakfasts this week! :)

Today is a brand new challenge over at the DigiHaven blog and our challenge for you this week is Christmas in July...here are your details for this week's challenge:

July 6, 2012 – Christmas in July Digi Challenge.  Use any Free Christmas or Winter digital  image you wish. The image can be a forever freebie, limited time freebie or freebie of the month as long as it’s free for the duration of this challenge.  Please be sure to link back to the original artist or website on your blog.  This Challenge ends on Thursday and the winners will be posted on Sunday.

Here is what I have for you this week...I really love how this turned out!



The digital image that I used can be found here.

All the paper and ribbon are just from my stash.  I cut the image out using my spellbinders and colored with Copics.  I then outlined it with some of my Tim Holtz Distress ink in Stormy Sky and Weathered Wood.  I have a little snowflake sizzix that I used as well and then some little pearls.  The sentiment is from an old stamp set that I have that I don't even know who it is by anymore although I think it might be Hot off the Press.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to join this week's challenge and check out the awesome DT inspiration we have for you this week on our blog~!

Is it Tuesday already?  Have you been to the  Tuesday Morning Sketches blog y et?  Our new sketch is there…. I didn’t want to do a flower for my card, and that’s the great thing about a sketch..you can interpret it the way that you want that fits your style.  I’ve had this Doodlebug Doodlepop sitting on my desk forever and I finally wanted to use it! So I pulled out some random coffee papers from my stash…i think there is mostly Echo Park and some Stampin Up in there.  I added the doodlepops and then the sentiment is from  Ink Road Stamps Head on over to the  blog  and see what the other DT have created.  Don’t forget to leave them some love!

Vintage Tag for St. Pattys (Challenge Masters DT)

Image
Hey there...so my last tag challenge as the Tag Diva for Challenge Masters, is to create a green tag..it can be any subject as long as it is mainly green...you can check out all the deets here by the way... So this is the one I created. I colored my tag using Pine Needles, Shabby Shutters and Peeled Paint Distress Inks with a little Vintage Photo thrown in. I had printed off a vintage pic from the internet because I really don't have a lot of St. Patrick's Day images. I used the vintage photo on it as well and then the rest of the tag was just made using some bits and bobs from my stash. The DP is some BG I've been using for other projects..The flower I inked up a bit to blend it with the tag and same with the lacy ribbon on the bottom (it was originally beige). I hope you like it and stop over and join our challenges this week as well! This is entered into the following challenges: Aly's Sunday Challenge : Anything Goes Corrosive Challenge: Going Green
