Hi everyone!

Hope you are having fabulous Monday! It is a little cooler here today, it's the humidity that gets you!
Good day to stay in an create!

This is for today's Tech Lovers Challenge on SCS and also for Anne Ryans QFTD honoring Sabrina (Cook22). Thanks for the challenges ladies!

Here is my creation:


This is Sabrina's beautiful creation that I chose to case! I changed some of the colors and images. I used the same design and sentiment!

The beautiful image and sentiment is ODBD's "Sing To the Lord"! I embossed the images, water colored using reinkers, over embossed using e/f and cut out images. The sentiment was embossed using e/p, cut out using SU die cut and embossed again using e/f. A M/S punch was used for the decorative border.

Here are some others that didn't get blogged!


This is Our Daily Bread design's "Our Daily Bread"!

After cutting the d/p I used several Tim Holtz distress inks to sponge randomly on the paper. I then stamped and embossed the grain image. (GinaK had a tutorial on StampTV.) The main panel was stamped using the same image and also embossed. Dew Drops were used around the border.



The is a Rubbernecker creation!

The Rubbernecker "Floral" were stamped, colored using markers then spritzed. After stamping I went over petals and leaves using an embossing pen and used clear embossing powder to emboss! The decorative borders were done using M/S punches!


Another Rubbernecker

The Rubbernecker images were colored using copics. Both were cut out and the sweet little tiger was popped up! I added clouds to the background using a torn template. The leaves were punched using a Sizzix die cut.

Thanks for stopping by! Stay cool! Hope to see you soon!
