The Cuttlebug Spot~Childrens card with an animal

Hello it is time for another Cuttlebug Spot challenge. This week the challenge is to create a card for a child and have an animal on it. I decided top use Dino-Mite from Gina K Designs. I love to use this set when I make cards for kids (there are some fun sentiments good for older folks as well). There are so many wonderful possibilities with dinosaurs.

Make sure you head over to The Cuttlebug Spot and check out the challenge as well as the fabulous creations from the rest of the design team. Thank you for stopping by.

Dino-Mite Birthday

Happy Monday!! I hope your week is starting off good. Here is a card I made for some challenges listed below.  I started by stamping the dino and tree on patterned paper.  Next I shaded with copic markers to give the image depth.  I then cut the out and placed them on the background piece I had sponged with memento inks.  The card is a 5 inch square.  This was a super fun card to make.  I don't really have much of a need for kids cards these days so it is fun to make them once in awhile.  Thank you for stopping by.

Dinomite Birthday

Today I have a card I made for my sons girlfriend.  I know this doesn't look like typical card for a 20 year old girl.  She is very into dinosaurs and green is her favorite color so that directed my card and here is the result.  I really wasn't liking it very much up until the very end.  When I finally picked the colors and laid it out I began to really like it.  By the time I was taking a photo of it I loved it.  Funny how that happens some times.    I love the sketches at The Sweet Stop and have not played along in a very long time so it was definitely time.  Thank you for stopping by and have a happy Wednesday!
