Tom Cat Goes Fishing

This is Tom Cat Goes Fishing. Another cutie from Meljen's Designs and he's also a freebie! I think he makes a wonderfully masculine card, and before making this I probably had none sitting here made! Yes, shame on me. Yesterday was Freebie Monday, so be sure to grab this week's free digi. I may actually print it up and add it to this card. (pop on over there and you'll see why!)

Tom Cat fits into a few challenges this week:
Fab 'n' Funky Challenges #16: Theme: Favorite Technique - Mine (right now) is using chalks around my images and especially for the sky!
Saturday Spotlight #24: There's a Coffee Inspiration photo
Copics Colour Challenge #57: Color Challenge of Olive, Blue Violet, and Walnut

Simply Teal

I love these Pure Innocence cuties by Heather Ellis. The papers I used for this card are from Bo Bunny and Core'dinations.

This card was made for two challenges:
Saturday Spotlight #20: Theme - Clean it Up (kept the card very simple)
Crafty Creations #57: All Shades of One Color (used teal/aqua)

A Cardinal with Many Words

Accents: Gems, Red Ribbon from Hanna Stamps, Nestabilities die cuts

Autumn Trevor Treat Bags

I was trying to think of something different to do for Thanksgiving this year, and decided to start with these little treat bags. I used Glimmer Mist on white card stock before cutting out the ‘bags’. The cutie on them is Trevor (Autumn Trevor, Sugarplums by C. C. Designs) with a few extra pumpkins on pop dots to go along with him. I finished the bags off with a jute handle.

I followed 2 challenges for this project. The first challenge was to make a treat container for SSHP04 (Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential). I just went and read that challenge again, and maybe I was supposed to stick to a Halloween treat container, but hopefully Trevor is alright with his pumpkins. You can find that challenge: HERE
The second challenge is for Stamptacular Sunday Challenge (#30), and we were to make something with a stamped image and fall colors. You can find that challenge: HERE

What I used:
Stamps: Autumn Trevor, Pumpkins (Sugarplums by C. C. Designs)
Paper: White and Brown cardstock, Image stamped on Papertrey Ink
Ink: Stamped with Burnt Umber by Unity Stamps Co., Colored with Copic Sketch Markers, Bags sprayed with fall Glimmer Mist colors by Tattered Angels
Accents: bag from a template, Jute, pop dots
