My Day For Challenges

This is for the Less is More Week 7 challenge - masculine.  I just had a brain smack- as fun as this challenge is, it doesn't have to be a one layered card! Duh on me~  less does not equal one layer.  Sheez at times I do wonder about my brain.  Well, whatever, my card is a one layer, and I love this feather.  The detail in it rocks and is perfect for the guy card.  (MFP Bold and Free).  Maybe in 2 weeks I will try a different more-is-less card, and get on the same page as the other players. :)











This is for the Clear Dollar Stamps Sketch Challenge 24.  I totally loved the sketch this week and what a great way to actually USE some of my CDS stamps! 

This set is called Frisky Kitty, illustrated by Kim Teasdale.  Just a fun little card that I had a lot of fun making!  Yes, I used copics and can you see the stripes?  I DID THOSE with the colorless blender.  That is kind of a fun tool the way it takes away the ink~ Aww, the small things.  Thanks for stopping in~

I did a one layer this week too, mainly because I really didn't like my card last week when the challenge was for one layer! Love the feather stamp, the detail is great.
