Farm Scene for The Outlawz

This week at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is "Anything Goes." It's everyone's favorite theme! Hope you can join us!
Our wonderful sponsor this month is Digi Stamps 4 Joy. You can find "Farm Scenery" along with lots of other great digis here: 
For my card, I made a top-hinge card base using Spellbinders' Grand Labels 1. Then I die cut another Grand Labels 1 die to adhere to the front. 
I sized up and printed out my "Farm Scenery" digi and then colored it with Copic and MEXPY markers. I added a couple sheep die cut with Joanna Sheen dies. Depending on what type of card I need, I can add a "Thank Ewe" or "Happy Birthday to Ewe" sentiment to the inside. Or even a "Thinking of Ewe."

Outlawz Monthly Freebie Progressive Challenge for September

This month over at the Outlawz Progressive Monthly Challenge, we were given this darling little "Sunflower Mouse" by Di's Digis. Thanks, Di! I used my Silhouette Design Studio software to do a print and cut of the little mouse. I colored him with Copic, MEXPY and Zig markers. I added a few Richard Garay black candy dots for the sunflower seeds and used some Spellbinders foliage dies behind him. I also die cut 2 Heartfelt Creations "Decorative Lattice Swirl" dies out of some black polka dot CTMH paper (it has darker black spots on it, but it's had to tell in the picture) to give everything a pretty background. I used a wooden "Happy Birthday" banner tied with some black twine to the top left corner. As a final touch, I added some yellow candy dots to the bottom right of the card.

Gerda Steiner Parachute Pig Card

This month's darling image for the Gerda Steiner Monthly Progressive Challenge got me thinking about puns. My aunt has recently had some medical issues going on, and I thought this card might cheer her up. It says, "Oh, Chute" on the front and "Heard you were under the weather" on the inside. I used a Papertrey Ink die to make the cut out that allows my parachute pig to go up and down on the card. I think interactive cards are so fun! The letter dies to spell out "Oh, Chute" are from Top Dog Dies, and the clouds are from Jillibean Soup's "Cloud Set." 
 
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Pink Cameo For The Outlawz

This week over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is "Think Pink." Use pink in your project!
Our sponsor this month is Digi Stamps 4 Joy. You can find "Cameo Lady" along with lots of other great digis here: 

For my card, I made a top-hinge base using a Sue Wilson die from her Spanish Collection. Then I used a smaller die in the same collection to die cut the trellis background after first cutting it with Spellbinders' Fancy Lattice die. I then die cut a Spellbinders' Beaded Ovals die. 
The focal point here is all part of the digi "Cameo Lady." I simply did a print and cut of the digi and then colored her with Copic and MEXPY markers. Then I added some pearls and gems to embellish her a bit.

3 Kings Card for The Outlawz

This week at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is "punch it." Use punches of dies on your creations this week.
Our wonderful sponsor this month is Digi Stamps 4 Joy. You can find "We Three Kings (Set of 3)" along with lots of other great digis here: 

I began my card by making a top-hinge card using red cardstock and a Sue Wilson die from her Spanish collection. I then made a green background for my digis by using 2 more dies from the Spanish collection. I think it turned out to be an elegant setting for my 3 kings. What do you think?

I did a print and cut of my 3 kings and then colored them using Copic and MEXPY markers with some metallic accents for the gold and silver you see. I added a star for them to follow and adhered them using foam squares to pop them up a bit.

Circle Easel Card for The Outlawz


This week over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is "Spinning in Circles." To follow the twist, just use a circle or circles in your project.
Our sponsor this month is Digi Stamps 4 Joy. You can find "Pond Cassanova" along with lots of other great digis here: 
I made a circle easel card using a die from the Spellbinder Grand Circles dies set. Then I die cut some circles in blue card stock using Gina Marie Designs Stitched Circles die. I stamped the sentiment and flies using a CTMH set called "Fun Times." 
I did a print and cut of my digi and colored him with MEXPY markers before adhering him to the blue circle with foam squares. I adhered all the circle die cuts with foam squares to add dimension. Then I added some blue and green sequins to finish off the card.

This week over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is "count your buttons." Use buttons on your project!
Our wonderful sponsor this month is Digi Stamps 4 Joy. You can find "4th Birthday" along with lots of other great digis here: 

I used a Spellbinders Fleur de Elegance die to make my top-hinge card base out of orange card stock. Then I die cut 2 Sue Wilson Hollywood dies in yellow and pink to make the background for my digi. I did a print and cut of the digi using my Silhouette Design Studio software and then colored it with Copic markers. I added a few enamel dots, some rhinestones and buttons, of course, to finish the card.
