This fabulously adorable digital image is from Smeared Ink. In December my eldest son had open heart surgery and I realized that I did not have Get Well card suitable for a man, nor did I have the time or energy to make one. I guess you could say he was the inspiration for this card. The image was colored using copics. I used a cuttlebug folder to emboss the red cardstock and then I heat embossed with silver embossing powder over top of that. The silver mesh is actually heat embossed drywall tape , and I finished it off with corrogated cardboard on the corners. Love the way it turned out and I might make a few more and stay prepared.

This is just a silly little image that i drew a while back. For some reason I seem to be facinated by by monster-esk types of characters. I love the imperfections, crooked eyes and scars. ugly but cute at the same time. This was colored using copics with a little bit of faux stitching added. The sketch is from Sketches by Carly, designer paper K & Company and the little heart on the front is a cutting file from Designs on Cloud 9, I added liquid glass from Close to My Heart to add shine on the heart. I finished the card off with a strip of lace. I decided not to use a sentiments inside and opted to leave it blank so I can write a note in it instead.
My second entry into the CDAC Progressive Challenge # 10. This quirky image is a provided freebie for the challenge and is from Just Inked. I think this digi will make any man smile, even if you did forget his birthday. OOPS! I colored using copics, ink distressed the edges, added corrugated cardboard and drywall tape, these are staples in my stash. I finished it off with 5 i-rocks. 
I am entering this card into the Tiddly Inks Blog Hop Challenge. It is a one day only challenge and I hope there will be lots of entries( I can always use new ideas) Come join in!! I love everything about Tiddly Inks images. They have just the right combination of quirky, cute and amusing images. I chose flower girl , she is one of my favorite images from Tiddly Inks and colored her using copics. The designer paper is Black & Ivory from K & C Company. I used a Spellbinder die to frame the image , three little bright pink stick on roses and ribbon to complete the card. I wanted the image to be the focus of the card so I kept it pretty simple. 
Holy cow I think this Bugaboo image is cute and I really like the sketch this week from Sketches by Carly. The designer paper is out of the Four Seasons stack from DCWV as well as a little scrap of Close to My Heart paper. The embellishments I added are old drywall tape, old pieces of corrogated board ( I always keep both on hand in my stash), a corner cuttlebug die and 3 imaginisce studs.
