Sammy, my teamie at Crafting with Dragonflies, is having a special Blog Candy + Freebie Challenge to promote her 14-year-old daughter's digi stamp company, Mad Hatter Designs. I just couldn't resist participating!
Do check out this challenge; you can enter for the awesome blog candy (did I spy LOTV?!), and you can help support a young artist by using this cute digi to be eligible for another great prize!
This image is called Neko (Cat), and I just happened to have the purrfect sentiment stamp already out on my craft table!
The image and paper-pieced dress are colored with Copics and TEKwriter gel pens. I had lots of fun coloring this, it's not my usual thing. The whites of the eyes are filled with a clear Sakura gel pen.
The three heart-patterned patterns are from a paper pack I acquired years ago...not sure the company. The polka dotted and striped paper are the opposite sides of an Echo Park paper, and the sentiment was heat-embossed on a scrap of DP (Authentique). The sentiment & pawprint are from the same stamp set (Studio G?), which I won a long time ago from Priscilla at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. The image piece was sponged with hot pink ink, and the corners were decorated with a Recollection border punch. Everything was edged with Copics. Can't you tell I had fun with this‽
Inspiration/Challenges:
Mad Hatter Challenge: Freebie digi
Simon Says Stamp: Humorous
Simply Create Too #53: Valentine's Day or Use Hearts
Tuesday Morning Sketches: Sketch #233
I'll be sending this card to the Sunshine Mail Foundation, to give a smile to child in the Northern Virginia area. You can even win a prize by entering their current challenge, "Anything Goes with a twist for Valentines Day" and sending in a card (Donation guidelines here).
Update: This card was featured on the Tuesday Morning Sketches Facebook page.
Thank you for visiting, and a special thank-you to Kayleigh and Sammy!
