Squigglefly Challenge 3914 - Use Dots


Well, if it's Monday (and it is) there is a new challenge at Squigglefly.  This week, Rhonda's Rowdy Rascals, are asking that you use dots on your card or project!  Colored dots, dots on DP, embossed dots, etc., etc. - you get the picture.  I used dots in two forms on my card - the pink panel has embossed dots and two of the scoops on the ice cream cone has sprinkles!   I am using a new image which will be released on Saturday, October 5th, 2014 at the Squigglefly shop!

MFP's Speedy Fox & Friends Challenge 231 - ZENTANGLE



Welcome to a new Speedy Fox & Friends Challenge this week.  Pat has asked us to make a card/project using the Zentangle technique.  I have actually become rather interested in Zentangle.  Zentangle is very relaxing and there are hundreds of tangles out there to learn - or come up with your own.  Like everything it takes a lot of practice.  There are some really awesome tanglers out there!  So, back to the challenge - why not give it a try - you might like it as well!  And, there is always a stamp prize to the weekly winner!!  

Card Recipe:

Image:  MFP's What a Scream
Paper:  MFP White Heavy Premium 140 lb. CS; MFP Black CS; Cosmo Cricket Matilda DP
Ink:  Copics:  YR04, 02, 01; Y04, 02 and 00 and R21 and Faber Castell Pens F, M & B
Accessories:  SB Matting Basics A&B Dies; Pop Dots

Thanks so much for stopping by - join us and give the Zentangle a go!  Later gator!
