Be My Valentine!

This is my DT card for Cards for Men where the challenge starting today is 'All My Love'.  The prize is 5 digis from Kenny K which is worth entering for, isn't it?  Pop over to the main post to see all the details and to see the wonderful cards from the rest of the team.

My image is called 'Hug' which I've coloured with promarkers and backed with Stampin Up cardstock (Real Red).  The backing paper is from Love Notes by Fancy Pants and the sentiments are from My Heart stamp set from Waltzing Mouse Stamps.

Devillish Divas Blog Hop

Welcome to the Devilish Divas Halloween blog hop!  You should have arrived here from Cely's blog.  If you are just joining the hop and want to start from the beginning, please visit Dena’s blog and begin there so you don’t miss out on any of the cool projects! 

This is a Halloween-themed hop sponsored by Kenny K Downloads.  One lucky winner will win their choice of FIVE digi’s from the Kenny K Downloads store along with a fun Halloween goodie bag sponsored by our hostess, Dena Jones.  Details on how to enter are at the bottom of this post.  Here is a brief bio on our sponsor:

 

 

 

Digi and rubber stamps from KennyK are a fun and edgy way to add the perfect dose of attitude and style to all your creations! 

The creator, the artist, the man:  KennyK is a NYC-born professional illustrator who has brought his funky-but-slick, urban-influenced look to the cardmaking and papercrafts world.  His signature style can be seen throughout his various collection of pinup babes, sweet ‘n sassy girls, cool rockin’ dudes, kid’s stuff, retro characters and more at KennyDownloads.com.

 

Now, on to my project:

 

My image is Scarlett West and I think she's wonderful. She reminds me of the 'Melody Pond/River Song' character in Doctor Who who's rather naughty.  I've coloured her with promarkers, backed with some wonderful paper from Stampin Up and a bit of web rbbon from my stash.

 

 

Hope you enjoyed your visit!  If you'd like a chance to win our blog hop candy, here's what you need to do:

No Paper Here!

I'm soooooo sorry to be late with my post.  Time has been running away from me all week and I just couldn't catch up.  No that the kiddies are all in bed, I can settle down to my blog.

This is my card for this week's challenge over at Cards for Men were the theme is 'No Paper'.  By that we mean we don't want to see any designer paper.  I set the challenge this week and I'm a huge fan of our sponsor, Kenny K.  I'm sure you're all familiar with the wonderful work of Kenny K's Shop but what about the man (and woman) behind those wonderful creations.  Take a look here to see their journey, http://www.kennykdownloads.com/about-kenny-and-elena.php

The very generous Kenny & Elena have provided not one, but three prizes.  Pop over to the main challenge post for all the details and to see the rest of the team's ideas.

We were lucky enough to get images to use and I chose, Cool Kid, which I've coloured with my promarkers.  The apple shape is cut out using my Cricut - 'Just Because' Cards - cartridge and you can see my (terrible) handwritten sentiment.  I'm trying out ideas for teacher cards early this year.  I want something that can be easily replicated since I have to do about six in total.  I'd probably print the sentiments and then cut out.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
