Papertake Weekly Anything Goes!

Hey everyone! We've started another brand new week and we've now got Monday under our belt! It's time for a new challenge at Papertake Weekly, and the first Tuesday of the month means it's anything goes and we're sponsored by the awesome folks over at Lili of the Valley! 

There is an option of making a Halloween treat holder, so that's what I did this week! It just so happens that this adorable cut file is on sale over at My Scrap Chick. FUN!!  I downsized mine so I could fit two of the treat boxes on a 12x12 piece of cardstock. Isn't he a cutie??

Please be sure and pop over to Papertake Weekly to check out all the hauntingly awesome creations by the design team, and then I hope you join in the challenge with us! Thanks for stopping by to see me today and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

Bells Ring Set from Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!!

 

 

Happy Weekend and can you believe it's the first of October already? Wow!! Have you seen all the awesome new Shaker Sets that Art Impressions just released? So CUTE and FUN!!! Today I'm featuring the adorable Bells Ring Set! This is just the cutest snowman I think I've ever seen!! And to add another layer of cuteness, I added jingle bells to his little behiney. Could he be any more adorable?

 

 

When I'm using bright colors, I like to shade my white with blue. When I'm using more muted tones in my card, I then turn to my Copic Toner grays to shade the white.  

 

 

 

And a little wonky look at the shaker

 

 

And a little video so you can see and hear him in action!

 

 

Copics used: 

B000, Blender, R22, R24, R27, C1, C3, C5, C7, YG61, YG63, YG67, Y23, Y26, E93, E95

Art Impressions Shake It Off Challenge week two!!

Hello AI Fans!!!

It's week two of the Shake It Off Challenge at Art Impressions! We are celebrating the release of the brand new AI Shakers!! They are so much FUN!!!  They're fun to color, and they are sure to bring a huge smile and some chuckling! So for my card today, I'm featuring Jingle Set! He is the cutest Reindeer and he loves to Jingle his bells!!

I loved these papers with him cause they remind me of the barn where Jingle would probably stay. 



And a little action shot of the card
