We're always accepting Happy Mail cards at Sunshine Mail, but we also take special requests. For example, 4-year-old Waylon is celebrating his birthday on September 15, so we're asking folks to send him a card to make it extra-special. You can send him a card at (please send it by Sept. 6):
I made a card featuring Cool Buds by BBKakes, one of the talented designers at StitchyBear's Digi Outlet (SBDO). This week at One Stitch at a Time (OSAAT), the theme is Anything Goes with a SBDO image, and the DT has donated some wonderful prizes, so you'll definitely want to join in!
The current Sunshine Mail Challenge theme is Anything Goes + Card Donation, so why not grab your favorite SBDO digi, make a card for Waylon or any Card Cutie, and enter both challenges‽ Hurry, the deadline is Saturday, August 31!
I just adore coloring this image with my Copics (you might remember my cityscape version), and this time I tried my hand at "ombré coloring" on the hair & doggie.
The DP is from SMIRK, and I added some faux stitching with a Pitt Artist Pen on both background circles. The circles & base card were cut on my Cricut using their Camping Critters cartridge. The white matte die cut is from my stash, and I embossed it in my BigShot with a Cuttlebug folder. Everything is edged with a blue Copic (B02).
Although you can't see it in the photo, his jacket is covered with Crackle Accents. Also, the lenses of the sunglasses are colored with a glitter pen.

Fetch-a-Sketch: Sketch #57
Little Red Wagon #200: Polka Dots
