Pearly Sparkles Challenge September 2022

 Traci's recipe month, the theme is some of her favourite things, Pink, Pearls and Sparkle.  She also loved Hedgehogs.

 This cute Hedgehog is by From the hearts and is called Prickles says Hello.

Coloured with copic pens, although you can't see it well, there is light pink glitter on both the butterfly and the flowers. Of course the card wouldn't be complete without some pearls.  Prickles glasses had a good coating of glossy accents for the lens.

Happy Birthday Dino Dude

 My card for this month's Progressive Freebie challenge at The Outlawz, now running on different blogs.  https://theoutlawzchallenges-freebie.blogspot.com/

Fun image from Dr Digi, called "Stacy the Stegosaurus" 

Having gotten a new printer a few months ago, the old one still worked, but after 14 years of good service not working as it used to in the past. So I have been experimenting with the new printer and for this card I printed the image onto some digital paper from Beccy's Place. also used one of her sentiments, adding dino.

Coloured with copic pens cut and layered onto a card base.

The Crafters Cafe Challenge #288 - 15th August 2022

 This month we are celebrating "National Relaxation Day"

and joining with Double Trouble Challenge

https://doubletroublechallenge.blogspot.com/

Some background on relaxation day, which has been going for 37 years.

August 15th

Some background:  National Relaxation Day was founded back in 1985 by Sean Moeller. He was only a fourth-grader at the time. He suggested that on this date people should not do anything of real value.

We have two sponsors for this challenge

Sheepski Designs

and

Scribbles Designs 

I chose an image from Scribbles designs, called Cozy.  Firstly I created some background paw prints and the sentiment.  The image has been coloured with copic pens.

Always thought I would have plenty of relaxation when I retired, yet I seem to be twice as busy.  Lets hope the recipient of the card has more luck.
