A new challenge at Saturated Canary!

Hello out there in Blogland!  It's time for a new challenge at Saturated Canary this week and the theme this time is "Make it Dotty!". That is to say, use polka dots or any other kind of dots in your design.  For my inspiration creation, I used a combination of polka dots and multi-sized dots in the background.  The image I used is one of Krista's newest, called Sparkle Nurse and you can buy her here.

When I was a girl, the volunteers at the local hospitals were called Candy Stripers and they wore pink and white striped uniforms quite similar (with the exception of the mouth with fangs) to the one worn by Sparkle Nurse so I modeled my version after that memory.  I can recall wanting to be a Candy Striper when I grew up and thought those uniforms were the coolest things EVER!

So without further ado, let me present to you my Sparkle Nurse! Isn't she a delightful little blood-sucker? LOL!




Here's a closeup of her, showing all the details.


As you can see, I haven't added any kind of verse or sentiment to the inside yet. I know several nurses so I decided to wait until I determine who the recipient shall be.



Be sure and visit the Saturated Canary Challenge Blog and see all of the beautiful creations from the rest of the design team.  I hope to see some familiar names in Mr. Linky too so get those spotty cards ready! That's all I have for you today so until next time, my friends...

Happy crafting!

A new challenge at Saturated Canary

Wow! This week has really come and gone very quickly. Perhaps that's because we celebrated a holiday right in the middle of it. Well, today marks the start of another new challenge at Saturated Canary and I'm still pinching myself at being selected as a guest designer for the  entire summer!

The theme of the latest challenge theme is "Bling it Out!" and I have done my best to comply!  In the event that you have been living under a rock and are not familiar with Saturated Canary or Krista Smith, the delightful artist who created this sweet image, you can find her digi stamps for sale in her shop.






As you can see, it's a very feminine card, all pink and frilly and decked out in pearls, rhinestones, lace  and ribbon and even a pink polka dotted butterfly.  The image is called "Priscilla Pie" which I colored with Copics.  I used WOW! Embossing powder in Bubble Gum Pink on the butterfly as well as the Happy Birthday sentiment on the inside.  The dot over the "i" is a heat set rhinestone.

 I know how busy summer months can be with the kids out of school and all the warm weather activities but I hope you'll find time to play along in the challenge with us.  I'll be back this weekend with another new card.  Until then,...

Happy crafting!
