Crafting with Deedee..Challenge

Happy Friday! Its been a beautiful crisp day here in Michigan. The trees are looking really gorgeous!
There's a challenge over at Crafting with Deedee's. It started on Monday and you'll have until Sunday night to enter into the challenge if you'd like to play along. Deedee is a sweetie with images to match her personality. She has a really wonderful selection in her store if you'd like to browse around and add to your collection of digi images. Just click on Deedee's badge on my side bar to get to the challenge blog and her store. "Candy for the Eyes"!
This week's challenge was to use purple and green in your project. I decided to use this cute little bear with her parachute. She's called "Leap of Faith". She has been colored with copics, photoshop, gel pens and stickles. I added a few extra clouds to my lavendar sky with a sponge,white craft ink and stickles. The sentiment is from Stampin Up. Gems, ribbon and purple cardstock are from my stash. The rest of the papers are from Stampin Up. Cuttlebug embossing folder was used on the green panel. I distressed the edges of the image and the green panel behind it with scissors. I found a heart charm in my mish mash and dabbed it with purple pink and blue copics and put a clear gem on it. It doesn't show up very well in the picture. A close up shot of this little brave bear is below.

I hope you get a chance to join in and create a project with green and purple. Thanks for checking this out. Have a great weekend!

  2. Hi Kathy - just a note to thank you for your kind words that you left on my blog. I love how you put this card together - green and purple are one of my favorite color combos - and I just love the extra clouds that you added - they look amazing and really add to the whole image. We have been away this week and back tomorrow night - I can hardly wait to get back into my craft room again!!! I must say I am totally addicted to this craft!!

  3. Kathy, this is such a marvelous card! Your coloring and all the sweet details you put into this just really shine, but then your cards always do! I especially love the extra clouds you added, and the fun way you decorated her parachute. Thanks so much for your kind words, sweetie -- they mean a lot, and I'm so thankful you joined our challenge this week! Hugs, Deedee
