Sister Act Design Team Post - My Submission

There is a new challenge blog called Sister ActCard Challenge and this is my submission for their design team call.

This is my favorite card - right now:


The ladybug is a digi stamp.  I forget where I found this digi.   If I find it, I will update this post.  I colored the ladybug with colored pencils from Faber-Castell and used a Stampin Up blender pen to blend the color.  The googly eye came from a big pack of googly eyes from Michaels.  I adhered different sized black cardstock circles on red card stock and ran it through the Big Shot using  the Stampin Up chevron embossing folder.  I used black and white twine to decorate the card.  I just love the way she turned out.  :-)  And yes - I am assuming she is a girl.  LOL

This is my next favorite card:


This kitty is another digi stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps.  I colored the kitty with Copic markers.  I created the stripes using the markers.  I used Authentique paper for the background.  The tag with 'Love you' was created using the Silhouette Cameo.  I inked the edges of all the cardstock, placed them on a card base and added three buttons.

And this is my last card for my entry:


 The stamp is from the House-Mouse.  I used Spectrum Noir markers to color this cute little image.  I adhered the stamped image to some cardstock.  The tag was cut out using the Silhouette Cameo and stamped with a happy birthday sentiment.  I added some bling and put on a card base.

I like to create all different kinds of cards and often times am inspired by the cards of other crafters.

    1. Have you seen the House Mouse stamp where the one mouse is carrying the jelly beans and the mouse behind him is trying to catch the one that is falling? Absolutely adorable.

  5. All three cards are cute, but my favorite is the last one. The expression on the little mouse and his bulging tummy are precious. Blessings!
