Kitty Acrobatics by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello friends!  A new challenge (#591) begins today on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.  This week's theme is:

NATIONAL HUG YOUR DOG DAY  (PETS) 

This theme includes any project that features a pet.  As you all probably know, I love kitties so I chose the darling Kitty Acrobatics image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps for my Design Team card.

I drew the background and coloured the image with my trusty Copic markers.  I also added some enamel dots at the top of the card.

The Paper Shelter has a Facebook group called The Paper Shelter Fan Group where you will find some fabulous by both design teams and other crafters.

That's all from me today.  Thank you for visiting.  Have a lovely day. Hugs, Lori xx

Newton Graduates by Newton's Nook Designs

Hi friends!  My older son graduates this Saturday with his second baccalaureate degree and so I created this card for him.  Needless to say, I am so proud of him!

Since he loves kitties, and he has a gorgeous yellow Maine Coon kitty, I decided to use the adorable Newton Graduates photopolymer stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs.

I coloured this cutie with Copic markers. I found the balloons clipart on the Internet, drew the strings, and added the year. Finally, I added a cute bow die cut, and voila!

Thank you for visiting.  I wish you a happy day.  Until next time, Lori xx

Halloween Witch Kitty by Aurora Wings Digital Stamps

Greetings friends!  Halloween is almost upon us and that always makes me smile because I have such cherished memories of my children wearing their Halloween costumes (which I made) when they were young.  They are adults now but I still send them Halloween cards and a special treat!  

I made this card some time ago and never posted it, so here it is.  It features the adorable Halloween Witch Kitty by Aurora Wings.

I used Copic markers to colour this super cute image.  The flower is handmade and also coloured with Copics.  The stamens were originally white but I coloured them with my trusty Copics.

That's all from me for this post.  Thanks so much for visiting.  I wish you a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Jerina and Kitty by Digi Doodle Studios

 Hello, dear friends!  I am sharing my second DT card today which I created for the new challenge on the Digi Doodle Challenge Blog. And, while you are there, you can check out the other creations by the rest of the Design Team.

There are six new darling images on Digi Doodle Digi Stamps.  I used one of them called Jerina and Kitty.  Looks like this cute pair is practicing some relaxation techniques.

The theme this month is By the Sea / At the Sea / Under the Sea

I have always found that being near a lake, a sea or an ocean is so tranquil and so I decided to draw the pier and the background.  I coloured this adorable image with Copics and Polychromos.

Digi Doodle Studios also has a Facebook challenge.  Why not pop in and join in the fun on one, or both challenges?

Thank you for visiting and I hope to see you soon.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Purrfect Kitties with Lights by Conie Fong

 Hi friends!  I usually start making the bulk of my Christmas cards this month.  I have already made a couple of cards.  This is my latest inspirational DT card showcasing the truly darling Purrfect Kitties image by Conie Fong.  Conie has quite a number of truly adorable Christmas images.  I made this card for Conie's Facebook group.

My card is pretty simple.  All I did was colour the image, add the free sentiment by Kiss Clipart and... voila!  Another Christmas card!

Thank you for visiting.  I always enjoy reading your lovely comments.  Have a wonderful weekend.  Hugs, Lori xx

I would like to enter this card on the Inspiration Station Challenge Blog (theme:  Animal Kingdom).  Below is the photo that was given as inspiration.  I love all kinds of animals, especially any type of feline, wild and domestic.  I immediately focused on the gorgeous white tiger because kitties have a special place in my heart.  And, what better way to  represent that than to use Conie's gorgeous Purrfect Kitties image?

A Cat's Life by Last Minute Manda

Hello, dear friends!  I am thrilled to be the Guest Designer for this month on the CCC Digi Creations Challenge Blog.  The sponsor is Last Minute Manda.   You can find so many sweet and endearing images on Last Minute Manda.

Kitties occupy a  special place in my heart, and so I decided to use a darling image from the "It's a Cat's Life" digital stamp set.  This is my card:

This image is so darned cute!  I drew the little table and coloured the image with my favourite mediums (Copics and Polychromos).  There is a Last Minute Manda group on Facebook.  

I wish you a happy day and wonderful weekend.  Thank you for visiting.  Hugs, Lori xx

Gracie & Nibbles by Digi Doodle Studios

Hi friends, and welcome to my post.  I am sharing my GD card today with the darling "Gracie & Nibbles" image by Digi Doodle Studios. There is a challenge going on now on The Digi Doodle Studios Challenge Blog as well as a challenge on Facebook.  But, hurry if you want to join in the fun because both challenges end at the end of the month.

What a cute pair!  I used Copic markers to colour the image.  I used my Cricut die cutting machine to cut out the letters with the Base Camp cartridge and added EK Success Sticko dimensional stickers to the letters.

That's all for today.  Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  Have a wonderful day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Jezz and Kitt by Digi Doodle Studios

Hello friends!  I wish you and your loved ones a healthy and very Happy New Year.  I hope this year is better than the past two years.

Digi Doodle Studios' first challenge for this year started yesterday.  The theme is "Be Happy/Favorite Things".  I chose the delightful Jezz and Kitt image.  This image makes me happy because it includes a sweet kitty and a lovely fairy (two of my favourite things).  OK, kitties aren't things but they definitely occupy a special place in my heart.

I created a simple background for this darling image.  The mediums that I used are Copic markers and FC Polychromos pencils.  I applied clear Wink of Stella to the fairy's wings.  The lovely papers are from Heartfelt Creations "Sugarspun Collection" paper pad.  I printed the sentiment right onto the cardstock.  I also used a tiny heart punch by Studio G and added the hearts to the top and bottom portions of the card.

There is also a Digi Doodle Studios challenge on Facebook.  We would love to see your creations on either the blog or FB (or both) so why not join in the fun?  

That's all from me today.  I wish you a great day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Hey peeps!  Hope you are doing well.  Tomorrow is the last day of the 2021 Cat Lovers Hop at Her Peaceful Garden.  

I needed to make a quick masculine card and so I came up with this. I made a very similar card a while ago and so I didn't have to come up with a new design.  The super sweet image is "Newton Unwinds" stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs.  You can find this adorable stamp set here:  https://www.newtonsnookdesigns.com/newton-unwinds/

As always, I coloured this cute image with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I always appreciate your lovely comments. Have a happy weekend.  Hugs, Lori xx

Little Magic by Ching-Chou Kuik

Hi friends!  I am sharing my latest Halloween DT  inspirational card which I made for Ching-Chou Kuik's current Facebook challenge.  

https://www.facebook.com/groups/chingchoukuikdigitalstamps

This darling image is "Little Magic", found here:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/730310529/little-magic-printable-instant-download?ref=shop_home_active_11 

I made the broom by using part of a paintbrush and wrapped twine at the end of the brush.  To flatten the twine a bit, I used a mixture of water and Mod Podge and brushed it on the twine.  

I used Copics and Polychromos to colour the image.  I cut the cobweb twice to give it some dimension and interest. 

Ching-Chou also has a challenge blog.  If you enter either challenge, or both, you may win some beautiful images.

Cat Burglar Girl by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps

Hey peeps!  I love October because it brings back such wonderful memories of my boys when they were young and could not wait to go Trick-or-Treating.  I also remember the fun I had making all of their Halloween costumes.  Those were the days! 

A new challenge has started on the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog.  http://lemonshortbreadchallenge.blogspot.com/

I decided to use the darling "Cat Burglar Girl" image, found here:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/230083045/digital-stamp-cat-burglar-girl-catwoman?ref=shop_home_active_2

The image is coloured with Copics and Polychromos.  I found the free background and the sentiment on the Internet.  The sentiment is raised with 3-D foam.  

I thought I would include the very first professional Halloween photo of my boys.  Adorable, aren't they?

Thank you for visiting.  I appreciate it.  Have a lovely day.  

Hugs, Lori xx

Newton Unwinds by Newton's Nook Designs

Hi all!  I love all animals but kitties have a special place in my heart.  I rarely make a clean and simple card so I'm rather out of my comfort zone.  Here is my clean and simple card featuring the super cute "Newton Unwinds" image, found here:

https://www.newtonsnookdesigns.com/newton-unwinds/

 The border is free standing. Here is a side view:

The image is coloured with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  I was tempted to add flowers but ultimately decided against it.  The sentiment is cut twice and I offset the letters to add some interest.  Have a nice day, and stay safe.  Hugs, Lori xx
