Wicked Wednesday with All Dressed Up

It's time for another Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge and this week our sponsor is All Dressed Up.  Our theme is Groovy Chicks and for my ATC I've used Hippie Chick.  I thought it would be fun to deck her out in pastel the-dye and keep the entire ATC soft and spring-like.

I think the All Dressed Up images are so incredibly sweet and girly, I just love them!

Here's what I used to create this ATC:

All Dressed Up Hippie Chick

Stampendous® Angel Wings Quotes Perfectly Clear™ Stamps

Stampendous® Royal Quotes Perfectly Clear™ Stamps

Memento™ Lulu Lavender Ink by Tsukineko®

Memento™ Summer Sky Ink by Tsukineko®

Memento™ New Sprout Ink by Tsukineko®

Copic® Markers - E41, 42, 43, 44; R02, 81; B21; V12, 15; Y11, 15; BV01; YG11

Neenah® Classic Crest™ Solar White Cover Stock

Lemonade Cardstock by Bazzill Basics Paper®

Here's what I did to create this ATC:

Print image, color and trim

Stamp words using three different colors of ink

Edge three sides of ATC with blue ink and bottom with green

Trim ATC base from yellow cardstock

Adhere image to base

Thanks for stopping by today!  I can't wait to see what you create for the grooviest challenge out there!  Show us what you've got!  In the meantime, have a wonderful day and I'll see you again soon!

Hugs,

Wicked Wednesday with All Dressed Up

It's Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge Blog time and this week our sponsor is All Dressed Up and my image is Purrrfect Together.  I love cats so this was a perfect choice for me!  Also, we're doing something a little different, we've added a color challenge!  Here's the color challenge photo:

Here's my interpretation with my ATC:

Here's what I did to create this ATC:

First, I printed my image, colored it and trimmed it to size

Once I had it trimmed, I went back in and created a simple background to ground my image

I trimmed my ATC base and adhered my image

Last but not least, I stamped my sentiment

A really simple but sweet ATC to hopefully brighten your day!  We would love for you to play along with us.  Show us what you've got!  Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you again soon!

All Dressed Up...

...and no place to go!  Well, maybe to my craft room!  LOL!  So the other day, my friend and fellow teammate, Jennifer Dove, posted a card for a company I had not heard of and I just fell in love with it!  The name is All Dressed Up Stamps and it's an Etsy shop.  OMG!  Each image is adorable and I would love to have them all!  Unfortunately it's not in my budget at the moment after being out of work from a knee surgery, but, down the road, some of those little darlings WILL be mine!  Luckily for me, Wendy, the owner, was kind enough to put a few freebies in her shop so any and all can play along on her challenge blog.  They also have a facebook page that I've joined and, talk about a warm welcome, wowzers, I was greeted in such a friendly manner.  That always puts a smile on my face!  So, on to my project and, hopefully, it will put a smile on your face!  This is Abi Ballerina, one of the super cute freebies!

Isn't she just too cute!?  I love her!  And, she's a freebie!!  You really need to go check out her shop, they're all very reasonable priced and all adorable!  

I would like to thank Crafter's Companion as they gifted me with a complete set of Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and the cool marker storage trays to hold all of them!  This is my first post/project using these markers and I love them!  If you haven't tried out the new version of Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, you really should.  You can't beat the price, and their quality is excellent.  I was very pleased with how easy it was to blend the colors and I like the feel of the marker in my hand when coloring.  I'm looking forward to creating many projects with them in the future.

Here's what I used to create this project:
