All Dressed Up Challenge #1

I heard of this a new challenge from my friend Lynn  that looks to be a real fun one.  It's called All Dressed Up and this week the challenge is Anything Goes.   They are offering a couple of darling freebee images for you to get started with.


I used one of there free images today but I can already tell that I will be purchasing some of there adorable images for future use.  I colored this darling little dog with Copics.  I also added some Glossy Accents to his eyes and nose.  I cut him out and matted with with SB dies. On the matting die I cut it out a second time with a paper that I colored with my BG11 Copic marker and interchanged the outer ring of diamonds to help bring out the bow he is wearing.    The designer paper is retired SU!.   I matted that on to black card stock and also dotted around the circle with black to help bring out those precious eyes and nose.

This is another card I'm adding to a box to send to Cards for Hospitalized Kids which I think is a great cause.  I really feel good making cards for these youngsters that ares stuck in a hospital.  It puts a big smile on my face whenever I think that maybe I'd be cheering up some little kiddo, even for a minute.  That will do it for me today.  It's going to rain this afternoon but instead of crafting I have to catch up on some more fall cleaning.  Boy it's taking me forever to get this cleaning done.  I have really slowed down in my old age.  LOL Thanks for visiting here today.  It is really appreciated.  See you soon.

  7. This is just a precious little doggie image and you've colored it beautifully! I love how you swapped the little negatives with that pretty aqua color - it really matches his little polka dot bowtie :)
    Have a great weekend!!
