You Deserve A Pig Thank You

It's been a long time since I've done a complete set of cards using Kendra's Card Challenge so I set a goal for myself to do all 15 cards for the new #KCC22 by the end of the challenge, June 30, 2026.

I haven't been very successful at cutting the 6 different papers like the challenge is designed to do so I just do each sketch individually, which works out great for me!

Today's card uses Sketch #1. I adjusted some of the layers to fit my image but I feel you can still see the sketch. This stamp, Wilbur, from Unity Stamps is just so darn cute! I love it!

Have a super day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Inky Paws Challenge #242 Week 2

Today I have more inspiration for the current Inky Paws Challenge! The challenge runs through August 1, 2025! Link your creations on the Inky Paws Challenge Blog for a chance to win $20 store credit at the Newton's Nook Shop! Check out the Challenge Rules before you create your project!

It's all about the colors for this challenge! Use Cotton Candy Pink, Orange Sherbet, Turquoise and Royal Blue.

For today's card I tried to match the colors with inks I own and did some easy stenciling with the Petite Flowers Stencil. I then picked out my stamp set, Oink. I thought the cute piggies would be fun with the flowers.
