{Doodle Pantry} Cuddly Bear




Hello, happy Saturday!  I'm so glad the weekend is finally here because I have it all to myself.  I did some cleaning around the house and now it's time to create.  I have a card I'd like to show you using one of Doodle Pantry's older sets and one newer set.  This cute li'l bear is called Cuddly Bear  and he's wearing a hat and scarf from the newest set called Winter Accessories.  This new set is so awesome, you can use them on just about any character.  I also put some liquid applique on there along with some glitter to make it look like he's sitting in some snow, which is why he's wearing a hat and scarf...lol!

The digi papers I used are also from the Winter Accessories set, very cute too!  The sketch I followed might look familiar, if you scroll down one post you'll see the same one!  My niece Carly has a new sketch challenge going on right now and it goes for the next 2 weeks!  One lucky player can win 7 free digis from Bugaboo Stamps...whoohoo!!  So here is the sketch again to follow..


My sister Kris and I often do sister challenges, so we decided to do another one!  The challenge is to use one of Doodle Pantry images and also use the colors BLUE, PURPLE, & GREEN!  I think I achieved that on this card *Ü*  To see what Kris made, head on over to her blog and check it out!

There's a challenge going on right now over at Doodle Pantry DPDC19 ,  all you need to do is use a Doodle Pantry image and you'll receive Workout Birdie for free!  Now that's a good reason to enter and you have until the 24th.
Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend!

The image I chose to use is called Beautiful Blocks - Faith,  there are so many beautiful images in the floral category that it was hard to narrow it down to just one!  Here is the sketch for you to follow...


I used paper from the Key Ingredients Kit from Taylored Expressions, love those kits.  The butterfly punch is from MS and the corner punch is by SU.

Hello Stampers!  Happy New Year *Ü*  Today is the new release over at Doodle Pantry and just let me say that you don't want to miss this one!  It's a super release.  There's also a sale going on right now which is 50% off all digital images from Dec 29 thru Jan 2!!  Just enter RINGITIN in the coupon field at the bottom of your shop cart, and then click SUBMIT to see the discount apply.  


My first card features the Sheep Alphabet   and I used the "K" for the initial of my name.  I thought it would be nice to make some thank-you cards since I never seem to have enough of those. 


 I also made a 2nd card using the same Sheep Alphabet but I used the "W" for my last name initial.  Here it is..




I used the same layout for both cards but just tweaked them a bit.  The design paper is from the new release also.

CDAC Freebie Challenge #9


Hello stampers, Happy Holidays!  Today I have a card I made for the CDAC Freebie Challenge.  The theme for this challenge is "Make it your own".   So to make it my own, I used the empty snow globe from Crafty Ann's and then used a digi from a different set.  I used the Quirky Penguin from Doodle Pantry.  I also used the wreath as well from Doodle Pantry.  The paper that was used is from this month's Key Ingredients kit from Taylored Expressions, such a cute and fun kit to play with.  I also added some glitter stickles to make it look like ice/snow.

My sister Kris and I like to do "Sister Challenges"  so we decided to use the snow globe and then add any image we want,  to see what she made head on over to her blog.  

The sketch I used is from Sketches by Carly and there's a challenge going on right now thru December.  One lucky winner will win a $20 GC to the Paper Shelter.  Go check out the blog to see all the details!  Well that's about it for now, I will be back after the holidays *Ü*

Thanks for stopping by............Merry Christmas!!

Happy Holidays!


Good Evening stampers!  Well, December is finally here and for me that means I need to get busy and make more Christmas cards.  Here is one I made using Holiday Ants from Doodle Pantry!  My sister Kris and I decided to do a sister challenge using an image from Doodle Pantry.   To see what she made, go check out her blog.

I decided to use the Mojo Monday sketch for this card and turned it sideways.  I also used a crocheted flower that I made and a pearl for the center.  The ribbon is from my stash and I used the MS leaf punch.  The design paper is also from the Holiday Ants set!

Thanks so much for stopping by, have a great evening and a fabulous weekend *Ü*
