Crazy Friends

I've had the wonderful chance to spend time with my lovely friends lately.
We always have a FAB-U-LOUS time in our own crazy way.  : )

So I used our adventures and laughs as inspiration for my entry in the April SOTM FromTheHeartStamps monthly challenge.

The star of the show this month is the adorable Hamlet PigWit Being Shy.

But of course he's needs a friend, so I added PigWit Cheer. (She's a cutie too)!

It's funny how some things just work really well together...When I saw the following wordart from Ginger'sHouse
("LIFE is all about finding people who are your kind of Crazy") I knew exactly what I wanted to convey on my card. A shy friend & an outgoing friend who will cheer you on to great adventures.

**Ginger has AWESOME wordart that just makes me giggle. Love her quirky sense of humor...I guess that makes my humor quirky, too!  ;)

This weeks sketch challenge#107 at FTHS was another great source of ideas...

I used both the sketch and the twist: No designer paper.  :) Such a fun challenge.

The scalloped pieces and the other elements were cut with my trusty Silhouette Cameo.
I used the Cameo's "print and cut" feature to print/cut the Piggies on pink cardstock . I then shaded them with my FaberCastell pencils and gamsol.

Lastly, I took color palette inspiration from Color Throwdown's Challenge#340

Aren't those just gorgeous Spring colors that go perfectly with sweet little piggies?? I think so.


Thanks for taking a peek at my latest creation! I hope to get back in the creative mode more often.

I was reading through blog posts this morning and when I saw this week's challenge for Freshly Made Sketches, I knew it was time to make some cards!

I opened up my Silhouette Cameo design software and imported the sketch along with some favorite Sassy Cheryl's colored illustrations.  These are just awesome colored digistamps...especially when I don't have the time to sit and color leisurely.

Here are the 3 versions I made from this sketch (love it).  I just wish I had turned the sentiments a little better.  *The sentiments are from Sassy Cheryls too.
