This week at  Jacksons digital expressions  our anything goes twist is a wonderful sketch.  And we have an amazing sponsor: For my card I used Lil Cowgirl and the sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe and is from the set it's about time sentiments. For this card I used paper from My mind's eye - on the bright side.  I used scallop and classic oval dies from Spellbinder.  I used an embossing folder from Couture creations called Fret board it really makes it look like wood.  I added 3 little Candi from Crafwork cards those I purchased in Essex Vermont in a tiny local store. Found great things there!  Miss the vacation... Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics: I added a charm purchased at Michaels that states Be Free - I thought this would be great with this card. The sentiment is put on Milepost shape that I got as a blog candy win from Ellen!!!  Thanks Ellen if you look at this post :D So has this motivated you to joi

I used paper from Bobunny collection Alora, I thought this was the perfect super colorful paper for this color crazy card.  I used Label 22, scallop circle and standard circles from Spellbinders.  I used some buttons from my stash from Doodlebug design.  The ribbon is from Dollar store. In honor of the color crazy challenge I colored my duck in blues :D  pretty crazy no ?!?  So I used my copics and the sky was done with broken china distress ink. I made my own sentiment for this card because I couldn't find any that were fitting. And I added a little duck charm that I got at A.C. Moores in Essex Vermont.... actually if you like him you should become a follower and join in to my blog candy at the top of my blog here :D : Here's a side-view of my card:
