Dilly Beans Challenge: Robots

Greetings! It is my first official challenge as a Design Team member of Dilly Beans! I am so excited! And I LOVE this challenge! Robots! Have you seen the wonderful robot images that the super talented Megan has created? They rock! I chose to work with Sprocket's Heart Framed.

Seriously. How fab is this robot? Robots are great for boy's cards....and it is often pretty tough to find a cool image for boys. Well, any of the robots from Dilly Beans will certainly be perfect!

I colored this guy in with watercolor markers and Copics. It's tough to see, but the background fades from a cool, pale pink to a soft blue-green. I loved coloring this image, and Phoenix has asked me to print one out for him too. I can't wait to see what he does with it. The "smooches" is from one of the Lil' Grumpies sets from Smeared Ink.

I hope you will play along with this fun challenge. You have until Thursday to do so. Full details are on the Dilly Beans Challenge Blog, where you can also see what the other Designers created. You are in for a real treat when you visit! I love being on this team so much already! Thanks for stopping by.. Have an inspiring day!

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks. The colors look a little off ...

Two Huge Valentine’s Day Hops!

I am in not one, but two Valentine’s Day hops! Not bad for someone that doesn’t even like Valentine’s Day… The first is via Smeared & Smudged . It’s time for our monthly Member Blog Hop! The second was started by Taylor Usry . Please bear with me…this post is long because I am sharing 2 projects and the hop lists are huge. Let’s stat with Smeared & Smudged, shall we? My dear friend Alex and I collaborated on the theme for this month’s S&S Member Hop. Instead of making it a free-for –all, we decided to challenge our members a little…create something Valentine’s Day / love themed, but there is a catch. Because we are Smeared and Smudged you can not use any of the following: No hearts No red or pink Nothing ‘cute’ unless you make it uncute of course :) Ok, so it’s not dark and scary…but it’s definitely not cute either. I used my colored pencils for the focal image. It’s from Smeared Ink’s Smitten collection. The “pretty fly” is from the teir teen...
