How 'Bout Them Apples - PND Challenge

Hello my friends!  I have another Paper Nest Dolls 'Anything Goes' challenge for you!  It starts today, 9/1, and ends on Friday, 9/12.  'Anything Goes' challenges are great because you can make anything your heart desires!

My project today is a card using the cute image called 'Country Apple Ellie'.  Since it's the beginning of September and in Wisconsin it's almost apple picking time I thought what a great idea to make a September Apple card. 
If you look closely you can see Ellie's little toes peeking out from underneath the sentiment!  LOL!

Paper Nest Dolls Challenge

Hello my friends!  I have another Paper Nest Dolls 'Anything Goes' challenge for you!  It starts today, 8/18, and ends on Friday, 8/29.  'Anything Goes' challenges are great because you can make anything your heart desires!

My project today is a card using the cute image called 'Watering Can Ellie'.  It's an image that's a little older but I thought it was just perfect to use with the stamp/die cut sunflowers from Lawn Fawn called 'Our Friendship Grows'.  I also used the 'Say Cheese' die cut from Lawn Fawn for the little Polaroid frame.

Here's a close up of little Ellie.

Have a Fantastic Day with PND

Hello my friends.  Sorry I've been a little MIA lately.  At the end of June I did something to my neck and right arm and have been in a ton of pain.  Since I'm right handed it's difficult to hold a pen to write, let alone a COPIC marker to color.  I have managed over the last 3 weeks to color an image for today's Paper Nest Doll challenge.  This challenge starts today and runs through 8/15/14.

The red rubber image I used today is called 'Flower Bouquet Avery". I just love flowers!!!  I colored her with my Derwent Inktense Pencils and some water.  It's really, really, really clean and simple card....the only embellishments are the rhinestone brads in the center of some flowers.
 Here's a close up of the colored image. 
Now for some housekeeping - We're offering to one grand prize winner (randomly selected) a $20 online gift certificate for the Top pick when a Paper Nest Dolls image is used in their entry.  One free digital image each for the Top 3 randomly selected entries (not required to use a Paper Nest Dolls image) will be given as well.  Winners will be announced on the challenge blog on Sunday 8/17

Remember you have until 8/15 to enter your creations on the Paper Nest Challenge Blog HERE.  I can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you again!
