Sweet Sketch Wednesday25 and Inktegrity

Our sponsor this week over at SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY is: Joni fromINKTEGRITY.
I fell in love with this little train when I saw a Christmas card that Joni made resently. She made the train into a Christmas train. It was so cute. So, I had to try my hand at it too. Here is my creation:






















I used Copic markers.
Y16, R29 and G28. The paper is from The Paper Studio and DCWV.
I used a Stampin UP stamp for the sentiment. The wheels are buttons that I have threaded yarn through the button holes. I made a little wreath to go on the engine. It was made from a Martha Stewert punch. I added Rhinestones to the wreath and the poinesetta. I also used a Martha Stewart Snowflake punch and leaf punch.


























Then, a couple of weeks ago, I won this sweet little mouse from Joni when she had a Blog Hop. Isn't he adorable? His name is Bizzy. He can carry many different items on his tray. Joni has a fun collections of different images that you can have him carry.














I used paper from The Paper Studio. The markers are Copic: R29, G28, YG03, YR65, C3 and RV14. The sentiment is from Stampin Up. I also used a Martha Stewart Tree Punch and Snowflake punch that I have added glitter to. Gold cord for the ribbon.

SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY 24 AND THE DIGI STAMP BOUTIQUE

Good morning everyone. I have been MIA for the past week. I left last Wednesday to visit with my sisters and my dad and just got home last night. We really had a wonderful time together again. We got some card making done, sponsors scheduled, of course, shopping, walking and visiting. Judi and I walked in a snow storm and when we got back to the house, we had a pocket full of snow in our pockets as big as a snowball.

After helping Arlana with her Sweet Sketch Wednesday blog,
I have a whole new appreciation for all her hard work in keep it
up. There are many hours put in to keep things running.
She is doing a wonderful job!! Thank you Arlana. If you haven't
seen her blog stop on over here. You will love the DT work.
They are awesome!!
Now for our sponsor this week: "The Digi Stamp Boutique"
We just love Sally Ann's images. They are just darling.
Sally Ann is offering $15.00 to the winner of the challenge
this week over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday. Hope to see you there!













This is "Winter Sophie" I used glitter on the snowflakes
and snow. It is hard to see it in the picture. But it really
made the card come to life. She is such a sweet image.
I used Copic marker: E00, Y15 and RV14. Stampin Up Ink:
Rose Red, Pink Passion, Pretty In Pink, Yoyo Yellow and
Chocolate Chip.
The paper is from The Paper Co. and DCWV Designer Pack.
I accented the card with rhinestones and Ribbon.

























The card below is called "Christmas Robin."
I used paper from The Paper Company and Copic markers:
YG03, E09, E37, RV14, R29, B32 and Black. I also used light blue
Pastels from Stampin Up on both cards. After taking the pictures
for this card, I changed the blue panel. I used my Swiss Dots
embossing folder to accent the blue. I didn't have time to retake
the pics, but it did make a difference.






































I hope you have a wonderful week!
