Scarecrow at the Outlawz Festive Friday's Challenge


We have a new challenge at the Outlawz Festive Friday's Challenge! Each week we give you four themes to choose from and you can enter up to three times per week! 



The themes this week are Fall Harvest, Halloween, Scarecrow, and Christmas. I chose the Scarecrow theme. I used the image "Bobblehead Thanksgiving Scarecrow" by our sponsor, Bugaboo.


I colored the image with Copic markers. I adhered the image to my background layer which was so fun to make. First, I took some copper foil cardstock by Stampin' Up! and ran it through the Big Shot using Pinewood Plank Embossing Folder by Stampin' Up!  After trimming it down to the right size,  I sprinkled some copper, gold, red, and iridescent  embossing powders on and heated with my heat gun. 
The sentiment was stamped onto white cardstock and punched out with the Everyday Label punch by Stampin' Up! The finished size is 5 x 7 inches.

I hope you will visit the Festive Friday's Challenge at the Outlawz and see what my awesome teammates have come up with!

Bugaboo is always our sponsor for the Festive Friday's Challenge. Our lucky October winner will receive a great prize of 5 digital stamps of your choice from Bugaboo. Please visit the Bugaboo store. They are so generous with their prizes and we couldn't have challenges without them!!



I hope you will come by the Festive Friday's Challenge at the Outlawz! My teammates have made some beautiful cards.

Have a great weekend and thanks so very much for coming by and leaving a comment. I really do appreciate you taking the time to do that!!

A little fishing at the Outlawz Sketch Challenge

We have a new Sketch Challenge at the Outlawz!

Our sponsor for October is Digistamps4Joy. Our October winner will get to choose four images from the Digistamps4Joy store




Here is this week's sketch.




And here is my card using "Fishing Tackle" by our sponsor, Digistamps4Joy.



I colored the Fishing Tackle image with Copic markers. The ribbon was from a new purchase I just made at Michael's. I embossed the background cardstocks with the Stampin' Up! Seaside Embossing Folder but used the "debossed" side. 

The Cattails are a die from Spellbinders.  The border across the bottom was a Die Lace Border by Joy. The "hello" was cut with a Lawn Fawn "Scripty Hello" die. 
The dragonfly is a sticker I've had for ages! 

I'm quite pleased that I used so many items from my stash for the first time.


Hope you will come by the Outlawz Sketch Challenge and see what my talented teammates have come up with!

Festive Friday's Challenge for October 20, 2017 at the OUTLAWZ!!!


We have a new challenge at the Outlawz Festive Friday's Challenge! Each week we give you four themes to choose from and you can enter up to three times per week! 



The themes this week are Falling Leaves, Plowing the Fields, Thinking of You, and Christmas. I chose to do Christmas as it has been awhile since I did a Christmas card! I used the image "Peace, Love, Joy Angel" by our sponsor, Bugaboo.




I colored the image with Copic markers. I used Diamond Stickles (my fav) on the angel wings and gown. I couldn't wait to use this gorgeous plaid paper from my stash. The big gold snowflake is new this holiday season from Stampin' Up! I cut it in half so I can use the other half on another project. The finished size is 5 x 7 inches.

I hope you will visit the Festive Friday's Challenge at the Outlawz and see what my awesome teammates have come up with!

The O Look by Digistamps4Joy

We have a new Sketch Challenge at the Outlawz!

Our sponsor for October is Digistamps4Joy. Our October winner will get to choose four images from the Digistamps4Joy store






Here is this week's sketch.




And here is my card using The O Look by Digistamps4Joy.



I dusted off my Cricut for this one. I found an overlay to use that varied some from the sketch photo, but since the sketch is for "inspiration", I decided it was okay to use the pattern rather than the stripes.  The image is colored with Copic markers and the flowers are some I just bought from Petaloo.




Hope you will come by the Outlawz Sketch Challenge and see what my talented teammates have come up with!


Thanks for dropping in! I love having visitors!
