A La Card Monkey blog hits 100th challenge

This week, for A La Card Monkey Challenge #100: Celebrate! + Sketch, I made a really simple sketch that I rearranged slightly. Instead of having scallops around my circle, I added them to the designer paper. Obviously, with celebrating the 100th challenge, there's got to be BLOG CANDY! To be eligible, you can 1) upload a creation of your own using the link above; 2) become a Follower of our blog; or 3) leave a comment with your email address. It's that simple!

Here's what I'm providing for the BLOG CANDY: Two stamp sets, a Thank-You note kit, 8mm pearls, Chunky Baja Breeze Glitter, a flower keychain, Daffodil Delight Pom Pom Trim, Whisper White Baker's Twine in a container I customized with a paper flower, Sweet Stitches Designer Buttons, a photo book to alter, Scallop Trim Border Punch, and Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details. Now that's some terrific BLOG CANDY!

Now for my card:

It uses the new Summer Smooch dsp (everyone will be able to order some April 1), along with the Kidoodles stamp set. The card is Pacific Point card stock, and I used a blender pen and Pacific Point ink to color the image. The banner is from the Petal Cone die, and I added a few Brights Glimmer Brads. Here's my sketch:

Kidoodles thanks a bunch card

Kidoodles is a great stamp set that gives you six images and sentiments. This is a quick and easy card that uses Just Eat Cake dsp, 1/8" Daffodil Delight taffeta, the Scallop Trim Border Punch, and aqua painters with ink pads - Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight and a little Blush Blossom for inside the ears.

Kidoodles Christmas card

This is a bright and cheery Christmas card using the Just Eat Cake dsp and the elf from Kidoodles. This was one of the designs for a 10-card class. The card stock colors used are Wild Wasabi, Marina Mist, and Tangerine Tango. The decorative strip was made using the Tasteful Trim diecut for the Big Shot, then I added little dabs of Dazzling Details for added glitz.

The close-up shows the Dazzling Details on the elf's hat and under his feet. I used markers to color the image. Hope you have a fantastic day!
