Creative Card Crew Anything Goes and Kenny K Digitals

For my design card this week for the Creative Card Crew, I used one of our sponsor's digital images for this unique Birthday card. My card stock is by Graphic 45 and Bazzill. My image was colored and shaded with my copics. I created these flowers using bazzill card stock and on of my spellbinder die cuts. Sentiment was computer generated. My lacey borders were achieved with my MS border punch.

Midnight Madnesss Sketch #118
Isn't this just the prettiest Image? I used the beautiful digital image called Arabella from our sponsor D'Amour Allure.She was printed out on my printer and then colored and shaded with my copic markers. I used chalk ink for the vintage shading. Pearls were from my stash. Cotton threading is from Papertray. My cardstocks are from MyMindseye. My oval frame was achieved by using my sizzex and my oval spellbinders.

Creative Card Crew Handmade Flowers & Robyn's Fetish!

For My design card for the creative card crew, I used the digital image from Robyn's Fetish called simply Apple Cider. I printed my digital image out and then colored and shaded with my copics. This card's image is actually 2 layers for dimension. My card stocks are bazzill and Graphic 45. My handmade flower was made by cutting 2 circles (one smaller than the other) and wadding them both up. (You can spray lightly with a fine water mist if your cardstock is too heavy and it relaxes the card stock enough to make it easy to manipulate)
A brad was then added to the center. This is one of my favorite flowers as it is sooooooo easy!
We just had a DT call and we have added 4 new designers to our fantastic team. The new ladies are:
Shanna
Margaret
Jan
Kelly

Kelly
We are so proud to have these talented ladies join us and I know that you will enjoy seeing their work.
This challenge is sponsored by Robyn's Fetish. They make awesome digi stamps and digi paper as well. Check them out and give them some Creative Card Crew love!
Our challenge this time is Hand Made Flowers. You can make them in so many different ways. As you can see, there is a lot of diversity in the ways that we made our flowers.
