Happy Friday! I am really looking forward to this weekend since the weather is suppose to be nice. It's been a rainy/windy day here, so instead of running around doing errands and getting soaked, I decided to play some challenges. My image is from the Cattail Pond set recently released by the Doodle Pantry. I love this image because it can be used for just about any occasion and isn't gender specific.
I printed my image directly on some Doodle Pantry digi paper. Coloring of the cattails was done with Copic Markers, and I added some shading with pencils and gamsol. I kept my design pretty simple and incorporated the following challenges:
Fun at Fairy Knoll Challenge 39 (FK#39) -- Feeling a Little Green
Digi Doodles Shop's Best Challenge #48 -- Spot/Dots
Tellen's Place -- Buttons
Do You Stack Up Challenge #8 (DYSU#8) -- Anything Goes
Supplies: Stamps - Cattail Pond set by the Doodle Pantry; Paper - Digital kraft gingham by the Doodle Pantry from the Juicy Strawberry set, SU! crumb cake and whisper white, PTI select white and bitty dots in green; Ink - computer, Copic Markers, pencils w/gamsol; Accessories - Spellbinders die, corner rounder punch, PTI ribbon and a button from my stash.
I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend; thanks for visiting and happy crafting!!
