Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge 127 House Mouse

For my Design card for this week's challenge, I used this adorable House Mouse Stamp. It was actually the first stamp that I purchased years ago, when I first started my paper craft adventure. I stamped my image with stazon and then colored and shaded it with my inktense watercolor pencils. I love the vibrancy of those pencils. My cardstock is from Stampin Up.  I just LOVE glitter papers and cardstocks!

Midnight Madnesss Sketch Challenge #126

It is hard to believe that it is already Tuesday and time for my Midnight Madness post.  Things have been really crazy lately with my son being a Senior in High School this year, (his football team is undefeated in the season so far this year 9-0!)  (We have had a few nail biting games though!  We are in the sectionals and then regionals, so I am breaking out the long johns because it is getting sooooo cold on those metal stands) as well as some medical problems with hubby.  With all the craziness of my life right now, it is so nice to sit down and create and Priscilla sure has some fantastic sketches.   As I am trying to get a head start on Christmas cards, I just couldn't resist Tilda with my stash of new Canvas Corp card stock.  This image is actually 2 stamps that I layered and stamped in stazon ink.  Tilda and her gifts were colored with prima colored pencils.  (yes I am giving my copics a rest!).  My ribbons are from last years Bo Bunny and flowers are from my stash (most are prima, I think) Why not break out those supplies and enter one of our challenges.

Midnight Madness Sketch 125 Just Gotta LOVE Tilda!

For my Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge project, I created a PAPER BAG ALBUM. 

I am starting my long list of Christmas present and what better gift than a Tilda album.  I stamped Tilda with stazon ink.  She was colored with Prima colored pencils and gamasol.  Diamond dust from SU was used for sparkle.  My album pages and backgrounds were created with Bo Bunny's 6x6 stacker of blue Christmas papers.  Ribbons and trims were from my stash.

The Pixie Cottage Challene #89 Sketch and or POP IT UP challenge

For my Pixie Cottage DT card for this week I used this adorable stamp called Hoo Loves You.

 My image was colored and shaded with copics.  I used my spellbinders for my window and then popped everything us for my layers with pop dots from SU.  My pearl swirls were from my stash and I believe that they are from want2scrap.Flowers are by prima.  

I made this card for a childhood friend who is truly one of my best friends. (she just LOVES owls)

 

It's Wednesday so it means another challenge here at The Pixie Cottage!
As always we have 2 parts to the challenge and you can choose either or both to play along with.
We have a fabulous sketch and our theme this week is "Pop It Up!"
You can interpret this in lots of ways, you could make a Pop Up Card, use foam dots to pop up areas, make an easel card, anything just as long as it pops!

Remember you can use the sketch or the optional technique or both!
The randomly picked winner will win two stamps of their choice from the Pixie Cottage Collection. The winner will be announced on the Friday after the challenge ends.
