Black, white & a touch of red

Hi! Here's my card for the OWH Midweek Throwdown color challenge, which is to use black and white with a touch of red or green. The digi is MaryMargaret by Michelle Perkett.

Thanks for stopping by today!

My card won the Hambo Hoedown this week!

So excited today! The folks at Hambo Stamps chose my card as "Best In Show" for last week's challenge (new one starts each Wed.) It was a challenge to use watercolor paints. In case you missed it, here's my card starring the funny Walrus digi. I drew the rocks and painted the bg and walrus with watercolors:

Sketch 142 + 1 snowman

I made two cards with the new OWH Sketch #142. I really like this sketch! It was fun to cut strips from a 6x6 pad while watching the Redskins today. This time, they WON!

Both cards use Doodlebug Design Inc. 6x6 Paper Pad "Boys Only". I was going for cards that a Dad or Mom hero might like to send home to a teen:

Plus I'm posting a little snowman card that I will send to OWH before 10/31. The DP is My Mind's Eye Holly Jolly 6x6 DP Pad.

Hope you have a good week!

OWH Midweek throwdown

The Midweek Throwdown theme at the OWH Stars & Stamps Blog is love or aAnniversary cards. I used My Favorite Things (MFT) "Emma Blowing Kisses" clear stamps with Lawn Fawn's Petite Pack DP.

I used the My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club sketch (MFTWSC93) so I will post this card over there, too. Thanks for stopping by!

Watercolor Walrus!

The challenge at the Hambo Hoedown this week is to use watercolor paints and a Hambo stamp or digi, such as this funny new Walrus, which was a freebie for everybody who danced in the Hoedown last week. I painted a watercolor wash background; I painted the walrus with watercolors, too; I drew the rocks on gray paper and cut them out to give Walrus a perch to sit on.

Pink and white snowflakes?

I might have been sleepy but when I looked at this paper from the Authentique Delightful 6x6 pad I thought it looked like snowflakes, even though it's pink and white! So I went with it, although now I think they are flowers, but I think it might actually work!

This is the My Favorite Things weekly sketch I used, with a Pure Innocence stamp set:

General winter cards are always needed at Operation Write Home; so I hope a hero will enjoy sending this pink & white snowflake card home to a loved one!!
