Going in Circles

Happy Friday the 13th everyone.  It’s a new challenge day over at Poodles Parlour today.  It’s all about circles!  Our sponsor this week is Whoopsi Daisy Digis.

I am really loving this week’s card for you.  Using one of our sponsor digis and a sketch from my  SCT Cardmaps book I created this card..

 

The DP is from Basic Grey and is just a few pieces I had left over from another project.  The grey ruched ribbon and cardstock are from my stash, as is the bling.  The orange ribbon is from CTMH.  I colored using my copics and then cut out the image with my Spellbinders for my circles.  I hope you enjoy this card and be sure to stop by the blog and check out the rest of the DT creations this week and don’t forget to enter!

Also of note, we have had a couple of our DT step down so we do have some openings! Just email Jacqui at thecraftypoodle@gmail.com with a link to your blog and let her know you are interested!

on a side note, a big shout out to Julia over at Epiphany Crafts!  I guess back in October I won their co-sponsored Blog Hop with Clearsnap and somehow (although this is not surprising) I forgot t0 write it down that I had entered.  Soooo, I didn’t know I won. She sent me an email the other day to let me know to get my butt in gear and claim my prize (she was so much nicer in wording though! ).  So thanks Julia for following up because it is an awesome prize and I can’t wait to use everything! make sure you check out their blog on a regular basis.  They have tonz of holiday inspiration right now and a chance to win a great prize pack from their sponsor this month Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L!

Jingle Bells

Hey everyone! I am a day behind for this post.  It’s a new challenge at The Poodles Parlour.  We are being sponsored this week by Glitterbabe Digis! Such cute images!

Here is my card for this week.  I bought these little jingle bells at the $$ store and just had to start using them!

The DP is by MME (The Merry Days of Christmas).  I colored the image with my copics and then cut it out with my nestibilities.  I added some glitter to the wings.  The twine is from Whisker Graphics and then the bell from the $$ store.  I hope you enjoy it!

Trick or Tweet

hey there everyone! happy Friday! It’s a new challenge at the Poodles Parlour for you this week.  We are being sponsored by Karen’s Doodles! We have a fun Halloween theme for you this week, so make sure you stop by the blog to see the great DT inspiration and to play in the challenge!

Here is mine this week!

We used Karen’s image (isn’t this cute) and the DP was sent in a swap.  I did a little border punching and after I cut out the focal image with my spellbinders I popped it with some spritz smooch and pop dots! I colored with my copics, added a bit of ribbon, some spooky spiders and a few brads for just a pop of color.  I hope you like it and don’t forget to play along!

Birthday’s Buttons & Bows

ahhh another challenge day at Poodles Parlour..this is a fun one, it’s the 3B’s birthday, buttons and bows!  I really had some fun with this one…

I used an image that I received eons ago in a swap and colored it with my copics. The DP, brads and button are from my stash.  So is the twine.  I used my scalloped border punch as well.  The ribbon is Savvy N Sassy.

I love the card that I did this week.  Jacqui’s images are awesome and so easy to work with.  I decided to make a simple masculine birthday card.

I used scraps of course!  Colored the image with my copics.  The twine is from Whisper Graphics (from my win) and attached with my crop-a-dile. Man I had to blow the dust off of that! I can’t remember the last time I used it.   the little charm I have again had forever.  Like I said, really simple but I love it.
