Outlawz January Progressive Challenge

Before I forget to post it ....

Here is the card I made for the

 January Outlawz Progressive/Freebie Challenge. 

All Dressed Up has generously supplied this really cute digi image called Rainbow Girl, for free, to all the participants in last month's Outlawz Progressive/Freebie Challenge.  I used markers to color the image, a die to cut it, and a punch for the sentiment ovals.

December Progressive Challenge Cards

 

Before December is over and a New Year begins, I thought I'd bettter share the cards I made for two progressive challenges. 

My first card is for the December DOTM Challenge at Imagine That!.  

 

 

 

****

The second progressive challenge in which I always like to participate is at The Outlawz.  This month MMedel Illustrations has gifted us with a really cute digital image called Angel.

 Here is my submission for the Outlawz December Progressive Challenge:

 

I made a total mess of my work area by putting CTMH fine glitter on her dress and wings.  The rest is colored with markers.

 

 

Happy Holidays to all! 

I hope Santa put something crafty in your Christmas stocking!

November Progressive Challenge Cards

Thought I'd take some time today to post cards for the two progressive challenges in which I participate each month, because once I start cooking there is no card making.

The first card is for the Outlawz Progressive November Challenge with a digital image provided by Sheep Ski designs.  At first I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do with this lovely digi.  It is called Claudia's Plant.  I am totally in Christmas mode right now.  And then I had an idea.....

 

The second card is for the November Imagine That! Digi of the Month Challenge.  The Digi for this month is Truckin Santa Paws and is super cute.  

I used markers and colored pencils to color the image and then fussy cut it before popping it onto the card. 

 

I hope it's okay to also enter this card in the Imagine That 12 Months of Christmas Link Challenge #83.

Have a wonderful day.  

Thanks for stopping by.

If you are in the USA, I hope your turkey is thawing in the frig or it won't be ready to cook on Thursday.

Outlawz October Progressive Challenge

 

This month Odd Ball Art  

has gifted those who participated in last month's progressive challenge at The Outlawz with a really cute digital image called 

 Flowers Tiffs Garden.

 

 Here is my submission for the October Progressive Challenge:

I colored the image with markers and added a bit of die cut grass along with a die cut sentiment. 

 

August is almost over!

 It's high time I post my card for the August Outlawz Freebie/Progressive Challenge.

supplied a fun image, New Car, for everyone to play with this month.

 

It's that time of year when the kids are heading back to school.

My grandson already has his parking permit. It will be his first year driving himself to school.  The girls next door will be piling as much as possible in their cars to head off to college.  

With that in mind, I made this card:

I flipped the image so the steering wheel was on the correct side for here in the US.  Then I printed the car in green and brown, fussy cut and paper pieced, adding clear windshields, headlights, a front plate with Good Luck Dazzles, and coloring the tires.  The stamp on the banner and the papers are from CTMH.  
 

 

 

July Progressive Challenges

 Each month I like to participate in two progressive challenges.  Both reward you for playing by sending you a new digi image to use in the next month;y challenge.  

My first card is for the 

Imagine That July DOTM Challenge - We Three Mice. 

 Thanks, Kris, for this wonderful set of Christmas digis! 

 

My second card is for the Outlawz July Progressive Challenge. 

I'm not much for coloring.  I used some markers, and some watercolors.

 This month the challenge was sponsored by Fabrika Fantasy which supplied this Red Panda image for participants to use.   It can be found in their Animal Kingdom Coloring Book with 15 pages of wonderful images.  They are running a Special Offer up until July 25th that is hard to resist.... "Special Offer: If you purchase a copy of the book (either digital or physical) till July 25th, then you will receive all the other 11 digital coloring books plus 2 mini digital coloring books plus 7 sets of digital coloring pages within 24 hours too!"

 

 

Outlawz June Progressive Challenge

 Time is running out for this month's  Outlawz June Progressive Freebie Challenge.

 

Last month's participants received the darling 

Sharing Is Caring digi from The Paper Shelter.

Thank you! 

I decided to use the colored version and some of the matching background paper on my card.

 I can't wait to see what freebie will be distributed for July!

Knead a Hug?

 That's the sentiment I decided to pair with this fun digi, Bertha's Bread Baking Bonanza, from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps for the Outlawz May Progressive Challenge.

I followed the sketch from the Wednesday Sketch Challenge at My Favorite Things, 

colored the image with markers, did a bit of distressing and added a bit of white flocking for flour.

If you played in the Outlawz April Progressive Challenge, you would have received this digi for free.   You can still pick it up here, join the May Challenge, and receive a free digi to play in June.

Outlawz Progressive Challenge March 2021

 For the March Outlaws Progressive Challenge, participants in the February Progressive Challenge were given a darling Paper Nest Dolls digital image, Lulu Bee, to use. 

 

I used a stitched rectangle die from ODBD, a Momenta sentiment die, and a Sizzix corner die, with inlaid glitter pieces. The image was colored with markers and watercolor pencils.  The wings have a heavy coating of clear Wink of Stella.

Isn't that bee paper great?  I couldn't resist buying just one sheet even though I have enough paper to last several lifetimes!  

Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for visiting!
