If you haven't checked out SheepSki Designs
new blog site, be sure to go now and visit
Sheepski Designs. There so many awesome
digital images! So much fun and so very
reasonable too! PIP appreciates the support!
Sadly, I was unable to create a card this
week...I can't even give a good reason. I 
love creating with Sheepski Designs so I
missed out with the challenge but I do have
some birthdays coming up and I think
create something with this beauty!
It's been a great image for many reasons.
I like stamping a sentiment right 
on the ribbon sash.

Here's my card using Gnome Snowing
I've been doing more with digis lately.
SheepSki Designs has a lot to choose from.
Generally, I print them and cut them
out but sometimes it's easiest to just 
find a great digital background, like I 
did, and just take the PNG image and 
place it where I want it. I printed the 
sentiment and layered it on coordinating
cardstock and raised it up with mounting
tape. Copics were used to color my
little Gnome. Stickles were used to 
highlight some of the snow elements.

Here's my card using Wild Rose Heart
I loved this image and it was perfect 
for my niece's birthday on Valentine's
Day. Purple is the amethyst birth stone
color. I used my TriBlend markers to 
color this. The sentiment was from 
another stamp company but ended up
being a perfect addition for this card.
I made some coordinating layers and
used a white gel pen for some dots on 
pretty heart. Be sure to go and visit
Sheepski Designs. There so many awesome
digital images! So much fun and so very
reasonable too! PIP appreciates the support!

Here's my card...
I printed out the Toucan image and cut it
out. Copics were used to color the image.
I added some white dots to the leaves and 
flower, and the eye. I left space on the lower
right so I can add a sentiment if, or when, 
I may need one. I raised the colored image
with mounting tape to finish.

Very simple layout. 
The background was all just cardstock.
No inking or anything. The horses were
colored with Spectrum Noir TriBlend 
markers. I REALLY struggled with the
coloring. You should be sure to go to 
Sheepski Designs and see how perfectly
colored they these "Crazy Horses" can
be colored. I need more HELP! lol!!

Here's my card for this week!
This image from our amazing SheepSki Designs 
is "Butterfly Curl" and it's so pretty! I used
the PNG image and placed it on a digi
paper from We Are 3. The butterflies were 
colored with Copic markers and I used a 
sparkle pen to give them pizzazz. I colored
another butterfly and cut it out to raise it's
wings for some pretty dimension. The 
sentiment is from My Favorite Things. 



The image is so lovely and it certainly 
created a beautiful creation!

This was a darling little image from SheepSki Designs.
I colored this little chill buddies with Copic markers
and fussy cut them out. I added some white dots and
lines to the hats. I embossed the raised white 
background with snow flakes. Using some silver 
glitter paper I die cut a large snowflake. I added 
that to the embossed piece and attached the
penguins with mounting tape. I'm still trying to
decide if I want to add a word or sentiment...
any suggestions???
