Another Challenge over at Simply Betty Stamps FB Page!

Once again, I ADORE her images and this was a fun challenge!

Here were the Challenge Rules:

1. Pleats, add pleats to the bustle and skirt areas

2. Color Combo: Traditional Fall colors; Mauve, Maroon, Mustard, Pine Green, Browns, and Oranges. Any of those colors is what I consider to be Traditional Fall colors.

3. You must use the sentiment that comes with the image and Frame it! Put a fancy label frame behind it, or make a frame for it, make it a shaker frame anything goes on the frame part just use the sentiment with a frame.

The Image is Called THANKFUL FOR YOU BETTY

I colored her up with my copics, this was the first time I have ever attempted pleats,  I tried!! I cut out the shaped card with my new Cameo Silhouette, still have lots to learn!! I used Scraps of course for the whole card! 

Please note: Normally I do NOT know the names of all the papers or the other materials I use b/c they are either something I had from years ago, or it's something that has been given to me.

Rick St Dennis

The Challenge This Week is : 

ANYTHING GOES

I was excited to get to create with a Rick St. Dennis image this week! This darling image is called Pudge.  I decided to go a little more simple on the card this week. I just started to use my Silhouette Cameo, and was trying to figure out how to cut things. So, here's what I came up with. I colored Pudge up with Copic Markers and highlighted her with a white gel pen. I used scraps, like normal, to design my card.
