Thankful Couple

Aww, this couple has the sweetest look of admiration for one another. Don't ya just love it?!

Deets: The Harvest image is colored with both Copics and prismacolor pencils (w Gamsol) when I needed that "just right color" and don't have quite enough Copics yet. The DP is ruby red and chocolate chip to match the colors in the image and the Indian Summer BasicGrey dp. (I noticed her head has a little bit of what looks like white showing through, but it is just in the photo, possibly from rubbing with the stump, looks a little waxy if I get real close to it. hmmmm) Also, the sentiment was from a SU set called Thoroughly Thankful and the the dp used was Indian Summer. The challenges for The Greeting Farm this week were a LOT of FUN! Thanks to everyone who put it together for the past 2 weeks, and thanks to Kristine and Cheryl for the tips about printing my digis. I really appreciate you ladies more than you know!! I have to mention that I really DO love the fact that you can scale them down to whatever size you need. I printed these litttle cuties out as wallet size photos since they are TIFF files that I can't open with PhotoShop, but they were then just the right size to center in my largest Coluzzle circle. :) I had to move the circle over just a little to tie my bow though. I hope they like it as much as I do . . . .

Hugs,

Too Stinkin' Cute Snowglobe . . .

I can't say I have seen a cuter skunk couple than these two . . . LOL. My dear friend and DT member, Cheryl, has been showing off such cute animal friends from The Greeting Farm that I had to go check them out and believe it or not, this is also my FIRST ever use of a digi image. :D yaaay. I had tried once before and the ink just dispersed across the page. Well, thanks to Kristine, another good friend and the senior DT coordinator for my KL SNS design team I can now use my digi creations (with a little heat gun action on the page after it prints -- boy, that was TOO easy, huh?!). Was I the ONLY one who didn't know this?! (I think so *blush*)

Anyway . . . long story short, they are having a guest designer tryout over at The Greeting Farm and although I don't have a LOT of free time, I figured by golly I was going to try out for just a "one month spot" with TGF and I was going to CREATE some "me time" to get it done!! LOL

They are running a 2-week challenge and I thought I had a little extra time to get the cards in . . . well, not so. I was supposed to upload this cutie Thursday night, and I didn't actually finish it all up until last night . . . not good. Well, I posted it in their gallery anyway (cause it's too cute not to share) and while I was at it found another challenge to enter it in.

-- Thanks to Crazy 4 challenges, this sweet acetate-toting couple qualifies.
-- It also qualifies for KL Stampin N Scrappin's snowflake challenge this month

Here is the completed card. There is a similar layer of the Eskimo kisses DP on the inside layered on a piece of ruby red cs and see the little snowflake creation in the bottom corner? (Note to self -- whatcha thinking not having a big snowflake punch from SU?! -- gotta get one of those). LOL
