Think Pink/Sketch Card


The bartenders couldn't let October pass by without remembering that it's breast cancer awareness month, so Joni has a "Think Pink" challenge with a sketch at Raise the Bar.  I colored this fun digi by Birdie Brown using Copics, then fussy cut it and added some Diamond Stickles to the flower centers.  This is also for Lori Craig's HYCCT For Kids Sake challenge to make a card for the kids in the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center in TX.  What kid doesn't like a cuddly puppy?! :-)  I'm also entering this into the Copic Oz challenge to use pink and to use Copics.  For more details, please check out their guidelines HERE.  For every card that is entered, they will donate $5 to the McGrath Foundation...a worthy charity that is working to help eradicate breast cancer.  You can enter more than once and there are prizes up for grabs!

What else did I use?
STAMPS: Tiny Tags by PTI, Pocketable Puppy digi by Birdie Brown
PAPER: The Sweetest Thing "Lavender" pad by MME, Going Gray, Vintage Cream
INK: Versafine Onyx Black, Going Gray
ACCESSORIES: Doily Die-Namic by MFT, Circle Nestie, Copper brads, Border punch by MS, Blushing Bride ribbon by SU, Tiny tag die by PTI, Copics.

Color Throwdown #215


Another Wednesday has rolled around and that means another Color Throwdown Challenge! Lori found this super fun photo of these adorable monster cupcakes to inspire our colors, so I knew I wanted to use this digi image from Birdie Brown!


I colored with Copics then added some Stickles and Crystal Effects to the monster eyeballs and added googlie eyes to the spider.  I die cut three grass strips and layered them to "ground" the image.  I'm also playing along with Judy's Monster Mash HYCCT challenge and thought this might bring a smile to a young cancer victim at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX - the destination for the cards in this month's series of Hope You Can Cling To challenges!

Here's hoping you'll play along with us! For more details about the CTD challenge, please check out the Color Throwdown blog or you can stop by each of the DT members' blogs and leave them some love.
