Pixie Dust Studio Challenge


The Pixie Dust Studio Challenge this week is to use the sketch to make a Halloween, Fall, or Think Pink project. I went non-traditional using brighter colors and a baking theme (ie the bun in the oven:) I chose the Harvest Mouse image. I colored my image with Copic Markers. I used DP from the Basic Grey Pyrus collection and PTI cardstock. I added ribbon, a brad, and dimentionals.

I participated in the Basic Grey challenge to create a project with the feel of "Autumn, Harvest Time". I also was able to take in the Belli challenge of using a pumpkin on my project.

Make sure to check out all of the other DT members for inspiration. I cannot wait to see what you make for the challenge! You would be amazed what a little magic and pixie dust will do!

Mel Jen's Inspiration Post and Challenge


This week's challenge at MelJens is "anything goes". I used one of MelJens images, called "Lil Scaredy Cat" and colored it with Copic Markers. I used DP from K&Co. and cardstock from PTI.

I made a long card. There is always a challenge with proportion on this type of card. I added a button, ribbon, rhinestones and dimentional.

I used the Card Positioning Systems Sketch as inspiration for my project.

MelJen's Thursday Challenge




This week's challenge at MelJens is to make a tag. I used one of MelJens new release images, called "Patchy Ghost" and colored it with Copic Markers. I used DP from K&Co. and cardstock from PTI.

I made my tags to put on top of a halloween gift bag. Each bag contained some oatmeal raisin cookies. Panda, my sweet little dog delivered them, with me, on our weekly hospice visit. All the ladies were delighted by my little bee and all the treats:)

I used the Tuesday Morning sketch challenge for inspiration. The challenge was to present how you dress up food.
