Pumpkin Time

Hi everyone,

It's Andrea here brightening up your Monday morning with some Doodlelicious inspiration!

My card today features Lizzie's Pumpkins. This image is absolutely perfect for any Autumn/Fall themed card, just look at these awesome pumpkins.

I paired her up with some digital paper in rich Autumn/Fall colours to complete the look. I hope you like her.

 

 More details on the supplies I used can be found on my blog.

 

I hope you all have a great start to your week. See you again soon.

Happy Crafting

Hugs Ax

Cutest Pumpkin in the Patch

I Know, I know... it's probably too early to be posting this, but I just can't help myself.  I LOVE this time of year.  Ever since I was little, I've always loved Fall.  Halloween is my favorite holiday.  So, now that it's October, prepare yourself for lots of "Fall" themed cards! :)  This is called Cutest Pumpkin because let's face it, it's cute!  You can find her here in the shop.  I just love the little critter peeking out behind her!  So adorable! 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great weekend!

Got Any Nuts in Your Family?

I am sure everyone would probably answer "yes" to that question! And if you ask my family, I am sure they would say me! I mean, after all, who else gets excited about paper? And little embellishments smaller than a dime? Yep, that's you I'm talkin' about too!  :)

One of the new October releases at Whimsie Doodles is this adorable digital image called Family Nuts. I printed it out on X-Press Copic Blending cardstock and then colored in using Copic markers. I added some sparkle to the acorns with my Spica Glitter pens, but of course the photo doesn't want to show you that!

I used Jen's Deconstructed Sketch #75 for my layout, turning it on its side, and moving the large panel over a smidge. I also changed the sentiment placement to fit with my design.

My designer paper is from My Mind's Eye Ooh La La Collection. I used two ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Silk leaves, a button tied with string and it's ready to mail -- to one delightfully nutty family member!

Pick of the Patch!

I hope it is a beautiful fall day where you are! I had planned to take pictures of the leaves around our neighborhood park, but we had 65 mph gusts yesterday and all the leaves are blowin' in the wind!
But this sweet little new digi from Whimsie Doodles, called Pick of the Patch, is sure to bring a fall smile to the card's recipient!

I printed my image on X-Press Copic Blending Cardstock and then colored with Copic markers. I punched out two rows of grass and then sponged the edges for dimension. Some pretty new Prima flowers, luscious ribbon, and Pick of the Patch is ready for the mail!

There are so many new CUTE fall images. Be sure to check them all out!

Hey Pumpkin...

 

Hello Everyone!

This is Marlene from ScrappinCookie!

Thank You for joining me here at Whimsie Doodles today!

 

Have you all seen the NEW and ADORABLE images released last Friday, October 5th? If you missed the release, you can see ALL the images HERE and purchase them at the Whimsie Doodles' Store.

 

Today I'm sharing a card I made using the BRAND NEW "Lizzie's Pumpkins" Image from the October Release. You can find her in the "What's New" section of the Whimsie Doodles Store during the month of October. Afterwards, be sure to look for her in the "People Digi's" section of the store.

 

 

"Lizzie's Pumpkins" was colored with a mixture of my PrismaColor Pencils and Crayola Color Pencils. I used some Coffee Bean Flocking Powder for the Sunflowers and added some small pearls.

 

 

I also added her to the inside of my card. Using MS Word I cropped and recolored the image before printing it.

 

 

Be sure to check out the Whimsie Doodles Store for more ADORABLE images.
