Digi Makeover challenge #60 - Lots of layers

Hello!
Happy Monday and I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
This week at Digi Makeover challenge, we have a fun challenge: Lots of layers! and of course, a digi image :)

... and this is my card for the challenge.

I used the mail box image and one sentiment from the set Sending you love . I colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils and I made some faux stitches around the edge with a green glitter pen.

I used cream (light yellow) cardstock and I used Swirly vines with hearts Sizzix embossing folder for the background, I also used dark green and dark red cadstock and dp is from The Garden (Rosie's studio)... and made many layers with them :)

As embellishments I used a light green ribbon with hearts and three green rhinestones. (Sorry for the pics, they are dark and blurry as it was late in the night when I made them...)

But going what is important today, we have a new challenge at Digi Makeover: Weather report. We would like to see cards that show weather related images and themes, and remember, the only requirement is that you use a digi for our challenge and you can win some amazing new digistamps!!!

For my card I used Moody for showers and colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils. I placed it on a lilac-purple cardstock mat.

I used Printer Soyuz dp and another one that I won in a candy, so I don´t know the brand :) and more cardstock.

For the sentiment, I placed it on the same cardstock and distressed the borders to make it a little bit different...

The image is "Owl and pumpkins" (first freebie for the challenge) and I colored it with acuarelable pencils, I cut it with a nestabilities "Labels Two" die and placed on an orange mat cut with a little bigger one of the same set.

I used a blue with stars Soyuz Printer dp that I have for ages now (LOL), orange cardstock and blue vellum. I cut the leaves in the vellum with a punch (... so difficult to see where to punch out!)

I hope you like my card...

The image is a Pixie Studio Design. I colored it with acuarelable pencils and placed on a peach mat.

I used two different dps, one is Printer Soyuz and the second is... from Australia, I think!

As embellishments I used a new ribbon I won in a Crafty ribbon Friday giveaway and I just using for first time today, it's written in French and says Joeux Anniversarie and has cute little hearts. I also used a lot of orange bling around the image.

I used some Oriental trading dp and red and blue cardstock.

Thanksgiving 4

Ok, here we go with the last card for today... this is the fourth CAS card I made for a friend who asked me to make some cards for Thanksgiving. (Scroll down to see the other three cards)

I used the freebie for this week from Bugaboo: Turkey with pumpkin. Isn´t he lovely hilarious???

I just loved this image when I saw it and thought to make a cute card with it. I colored it with acuarelable pencils and placed it on an orange mat.

I used some cream cardstock and used an embossing folder, I also used some Printer Soyuz dp and more orange cardstock and I used a fiskar scallop scissor to make one of the edges.

My friend loved this card and told me it was very cute, so I feel happy she liked it! Hope you like it too :)

Thanksgiving 3

Hi! It´s me again... as I told you before,  I made four very simple Thanksgivings cards for a friend and this one is the third one (scroll down and up to see the rest):

I used a freebie from Dearie Dolls (Mary Ellen has hundreds of cute images!!!) I colored it with acuarelable pencils and cut it up and to placed it on the card I used some foami tape (I love how it looks!).

I used Printer Soyuz dp. As embellishment I used a pumpkin ribbon that I have for more than two years now and don´t use very often... well, I used it only once before today :)

I tried to make the sketch from Raise the bar, but I twisted a little bit... I didn´t put the embellishment and I put a sentiment (from D2D), hope still fits the challenge :)

Hope you like this card :)
