FFC Gone to the Dogs

A quickie post today.  Today Jimmi told us, " I am dog-sitting LOTS of dogs this week so let’s make cards with doggies or kitties on them OR a card for a pet owner!"  So here is my puppy card:

The puppy is from a set from Recollections, the paper I have had for a while and I am unsure of the name, the bone brad is from Eyelet Depot and I colored with Copics.  How is that for details?  Sorry about that.  Not having the most mentally clear day. 
 
Now make sure to check out the other Friday Fun Chicks to see what they did today:

InStyle Stamps

As you know I have been working with InStyle Stamps lately and feverishly making cards for them, but there has been an absence of  my work here.  Well, wait no more.  I will be posting some of the samples I have submitted over the next few weeks.  These images are so well drawn, they are really fun to work with and coloring them seems to come natural.

All my coloring was done with Copic Markers.  This line of rubber stamps can be found in retail stores.  If your local scrap store does not carry these stamps YET, be sure to ask for them. 

Royal Kat Monday

Happy Monday.  This is the first full week we have off of school and nothing planned.  We are already through 2 cans of sunscreen and have the back up ready.  I can't believe how nice it has been and how much time we have spent outside already.  It's going to be a long hot summer. You should have hopped here from Wynneth's blog, if not, you want to go back to the QueenKatDesigns blog  so you don't miss a thing.

Here is my card:

here is the sketch we had to work with:

Love the Fashion Dress line of stamps.  I think that the peacock in the designer paper is jealous.

Friday Fun - Friends With Flair

 Hi all!  I hope you are enjoying your Friday so far.  I have a little something to show you today that is a double duty card.  Jimmi asked us to make a Graduation card this week as our Friday Fun Challenge.  I chose a couple of Unity sets so this is doubling as a Friends with Flair card as well. 

 A few people were talking about the crinkle ribbon technique yesterday using seamstress binding and coloring it with Glimmer Mist.  I pondered the process and wondered if you could get the same crinkle with spray starch and satin ribbon.  Well, it kind of worked.  I probably did not let it dry long enough or crumple it long enough, but it did get wrinkly.  I still used lots of adhesive and glue dots to make sure that the ribbon stayed where I wanted it, but I think this method did help the maneuvering of the ribbon.  Tell me what you think.

Friday Fun #85- Gettin Sketchy

Woohoo!  It's Friday, the end of a very long week, even though it was a short week.  Seems like I need a break from all the running around summer has brought.

Jimmi is our hostess this month and provided us with  a sketch.  I just love sketches and I made this card in no time at all. 

Here is the sketch:

I would have LOVED to have had those roller skates when I was in about 6th grade.  Pink and Green with hearts.  I would have rocked those at United Skates.
