Pike's Playground "Spooktastic" Challenge

If you haven't seen the great images by Dustin Pike then you have to check them out at Doodledragonstudios.  He's got some great hand drawn images and usually has a weekly freebie that's worth checking out.  Halloween is almost here what a fun holiday to celebrate and decorate for.  I love making cards for Halloween, there are so many great stamps and digitals available for Halloween.  This week's challenge at Pike's Playground is a Halloween challenge - use Halloween colors and a Doodle Dragon image. That's easy- the hard part was deciding which Doodle Dragon image to use. I chose Dudley (Witch Dragon image) because he's just so darn cute (I'm not really into scary-eventhough it's Halloween). 

The Spooky background is also a Doodle Dragon Studios image.  I colored both images with my Copics markers.  Dudley and the sentiment (which was computer generated) are attached to the card with pop dots to make them stand out more.  Thanks for stopping by and looking.

Pike's Playground Challenge - Make me Laugh

It's been cold, rainy and overcast all day here in Northern Ohio so it was a good day to get crafty.  I checked out Dustin Pike's blog because he always has some really great designs and many times offers a free digi.  I've never entered one of his challenges before, but he's got a challenge going on this week titled "Make me laugh", who doesn't want to laugh so I thought I'd enter my card.  My card represents the first thing I thought of when I saw this digi, so this is the perfect challenge..I hope it makes you laugh.

and the inside reads

I used the SU Perfect Plaids set to create the background.  I hand cut and created the stop sign using the Don Juan cricut cartridge for the STOP letters.  I colored this great Dustin Pike digi of Dudley (sorry I don't know the official name of the digi) with my COPICS.  The sentiment was computer generated and the Stop sign brad is from Eyelet Outlet.  Thanks for looking.
