Sketch challenge at Digi Makeover

Hello and happy Monday!
I hope you are starting a wonderful week. I would love to show you the card I made this week for our challenge at Digi Makeover:

This week our challenge is to follow the sketch that our teamie Carla prepared for us:

I used the image Skater Cat and colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils, I cut it out and placed it on a double mat /(white/yellow) cardstock mat cut with Labels1 Spillbinders die cut. The sentiment is the one that comes with the digi.

I used striped Alt dp for the background, some red cardstock and Burlap embossing folder (Sizzix) and more yellow cardstock.

The only embellishment is ribbon, in red and blue, to complete the sketch.

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to play with us this week.

Yummy birthday

Hello, dear crafter friends!
Are you doing good? Are you crafting? Life is good!!!!!!!
Today I want to show you the card I made for my friend (the one who celebrated her birthday yesterday, remember I told you I was going to a party?)

The image is by Spyder, and it's called Cherry on the top. I colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils and placed it on a pink mat.

I used In my mind's eyes dp and pink and brown/cinnamon cardstock. The sentiment is by Create with TLC, and I think it's perfect for this image.

I used three pink paper roses as embellishments, I left the green stuff and curled it to give some effect.

Hedgehog friends

Hello! Hope you are having a good weekend there, we are having awesome weather (34°C!!!!) and today a good friend's birthday...
I would like to show you a card I made for the freebie challenge at Imagine That:

I colored the image with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils and cut it out to match the sketch for the layout.

I used dp that I won in a candy but don't remember the brand, I also used green Folia cardstock. I used a corner punch and a special scissors for the upper border.

As embelishments I  used green ribbon and with some cardstock and punches made three flowers and also some rhinestones for the centers.

JUST A NOTE: I love hedgehogs... we had one about 10 years ago: one night walking our dog, she started playing as it was a ball, first we didn't know but then we realise she find a little hedgehog and we took it home... The hedgehog was named "Bolita" (little ball in Spanish) and we released it a few months later when we traveled and couldn't take care of it anymore in our friend's garden. They are not cuddable, but they are cute. (If you don´t know what to give them to eat, just buy some cat's food, they like it and it's ok for them.)

Cars, trains and plains at QKR challenge this week

Hello! Happy Friday!
I hope you are having a great summer, here is nice, warm during the day and some cool breeze in the evening...
Today I want to show you a card I made for our weekly challenge at QKR Stampede: CARS, TRAINS AND PLAINS.

Since always I love the "beattle" cars... I remember my brother had a toy car when he was about 5 in red color and now I can't imagine another color for this kind of car... I used the digi "Car" 14510 and colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils. I cut the corners with a rounded punch and placed it on a blue mat and rounded the corners with the same punch. I made some faux stitches around with a red glitter pen.

I used Alt dp (striped and circles) and Folia cardstock. I didn´t put a sentiment yet as I don´t know if to use it for a birthday or to congratulate someone that buys a new car!!!

As embellishments I used blue ric-rac and some yellow bakers twine... It's a CAS card today!
