Clean and Simple

Ok, so I'm finishing up the weekly challenges for the Outlawz.  Below I've posted the most recent cards.  Only one more to go for the month of January!  Yay!  I'm kind of proud of myself for having kept up with all of the challenges all three weeks.....let's see if I can keep it going!

Anyway, here are the cards.  I've still got some work to do on learning the CAS style, but the more I practice the easier it will get.  Hope you like them!  =)


This card was created for the January 24 Birthday Challenge (primary color = red) and the January 23 CAS challenge. (sketch)


This card was created for the January 30th CAS Challenge (anything goes) and the January 25 Color Challenge (orange, cream and grey).

Well, that's all!  It's late and I've done three posts today....definitely time to get some sleep.  =)  Have a great week!

ABS Challenge #5

Time for another ABS Challenge....and I had the perfect project! (Go here to find out the details and play along!)  A friend of mine recently got engaged, and this Anita Be Stampin digi was PERFECT for her card! Here is the card I made for her using the lovely sketch provided by ABS....


I had a lot of fun playing with my Copics, gems and stickles with this card.  Hope you like it!

This card is also being entered in the Outlawz Friday Copic/Promarker Challenge.

Ain't No Sunshine...

It's no secret I'm a huge fan of Bugaboo stamps.  Well this week they are sponsoring the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge #86.  Here is my entry:

I am also entering this card in the following challenges:
