Sketch Saturday - Sketch #382

Alex is our sketch designer this week.  I pulled out an old stamp set from PTI, called Autumn Hills for my card.  I stamped on Soft Stone and used my colorless blender to add pattern to the hills I colored.
Our DT had a variety of takes on her idea, so pop over to the Sketch Saturday Blog and see what the gals have for you.  It's a Simon Says Stamp! sponsor week - and the generous prize is a $25 credit to use at their shop!  I hope to see your work in the gallery!

As You Like It - Oct. 8th - Color or monochrome (color, of course!! They make me happy!)

A Day for Daisies - Challenge #132: Add Black Lace

Here's another of the sweet, new witch digi stamps Tammy has created for October.  This one's called Little Witch On A Fence.  You can find them all in the ADFD Shop.

Our challenge for you for this fortnight is to add black lace.  Now if you are like me, and you don't have black lace, pull out your trusty Copics and color white or ecru lace!  It works wonderfully! That's what I did for my card.

Make a special stop at the ADFD blog to see what the DT has for you this week.  It's worth the trip!

Sketch Saturday - Sketch #381

It's starting to feel like autumn here in Minnesota - cool nights that need a blanket to be cozy and crisp, warmish days, but you have to find the sun to stand in!  The weekend is shaping up to be perfect fall weather!  I love these days.

I hope your Saturday finds you well and ready for a new sketch from your friends at Sketch Saturday.  Milk Coffee is this week's sponsor and their prize is a choice of 5 digis from their Etsy shop.  My card features Swirly Bird, which is a great digi for many occasions.  I hope you have the chance to play along with us this week.  Take a peek at what the DT gals have for you here.

A Day for Daisies - October Release

Get over to the ADFD shop as fast as your fingers can type and take a peek at the ADORABLE images in the October release.  You will have a hard time deciding which one to buy first!  This one, Little Witch Play, is one of the four precious witches you can choose from.  I want to keep coloring a whole batch of them!  Tammy's artwork is so interesting and fun to color - I could feel the wind blowing in her face as the little sweetie was swinging!  It's hard to tell from my photo, but the background paper behind the witch and the card back is dark purple.  The card sketch is #176 from Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  It was the perfect way to feature this image!

Take a peek at the rest of the DT's work with the October images on the ADFD Blog here.   There's still time to play in the photo inspiration challenge!  Come back next Friday for a new challenge!

Challenges Entered:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday2 - #176

Creative Knockouts #109 - Lots of Layers

It's Team B's Thursday for the new challenge at Creative Knockouts, called Lots of Layers!  Love this kind of challenge because layers are so natural for me to use on a card (as opposed to one layer cards, which knock me for a loop!).

Lemon Shortbread is this week's sponsor.  My card features their digi, Stringing Autumn Leaves.  The challenge prize is 3 digis - so get your game on and play along with the Creative Knockouts DT this week!

Cards in Envy - Colors of Fall
