Sweet Little Donkey

 This week's challenge at Creative Card Crew is to make a card without using a stamp (you can use a digi) & is sponsored by MelJen's.  I've had this Sweet Little Donkey image for a very long time... it was created especially as a fundraising image.  The butterflies were cut using various Martha Stewart punches (hmmm.... I've been using a lot of butterflies lately), the ribbon & papers are from the stash & the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I used Copics to colour the image & then sponged around all the edges & the image with Tim Holtz Spun Sugar distressing ink.
This is my last posting as a member of CCC but head on over & check out what the rest of the DT is up to & check out the new members of the team. 
Challenges:
Mel Jen's - use dots
Wild Orchid Crafts - Use die cuts or punches (butterflies & the scallops card for the sentiment

Give Thanks

Today's card is my first project as one of the newest members of the Creative Card Crew design team.  This week's challenge them is Give Thanks & is sponsored by Meljen Designs.    This digital stamp is her Autumn Leaf & Acorn design (it is on for 1/2 price right now).   so head on over to Creative Card Crew to see what the rest of the design team has in store for you.

I coloured the design with Copics & then printed & reduced the design three more times so I could get the extra acorns for the corners.  The paper is from one of the piles I hoard, the ribbon rom Stampin Up & the spacer beads were found at the Dollar Store.  The sentiment is computer generated & the swirls are done with Copper Stickles.
I've entered the card in the following challenges:
Meljen's Challenge Blog - use three different shapes (square for the center, rectangle for the sentiment & the cut out acorns) - ends Nov 10
Lots To Do - Autumn Colors - ends Nov 12
