Date Night

Its October 5 which means new Doodle Pantry images and the Clearly Delightful monthly challenge! This months challenge, #10, is to use any Doodle Pantry image and ribbon. If you don't have an image there are always free images available at Doodle Pantry on their freebie page. Check out the other stamps being released today, there are even Christmas ants!
Just for participating in the challenge everyone receives a free image, these gorgeous Ginkgo leaves.
The challenge runs for two weeks, you need to use a Doodle Pantry image and you must leave a
comment on the Clearly Delightful challenge and answer the question: "For future CDBC challenges, Would you rather everyone receive a free image for participating and NO grand prize drawing... OR... only a grand prize for ONE winner and NO free image for participants?" Easy as pie and you recieve a great image. Go to the Clearly Delightful challenge and check it out.

Hogs and Kisses

I can't believe it, the day's finally here!! This is my first post for the challenge blog of Clearly Delightful sponsored by Doodle Pantry. I've had this card done and ready for days just waiting for today, lol! All of the new Doodle Pantry images are sooo sweet, especially this precious piglet, isn't she adorable! I did this for a friend who needed a little pick me up and that's what's on the inside of the card, almost. It says "Thought you could use a little pig me up". She is going to LOVE it! I watercoloured the piglet so I'd have more control over the colours. I haven't done watercolours for ages, I need to do it more often. The Clearly Delightful challenge for this month is anything goes as long as you use a Doodle Pantry image, how easy it that. Doodle Pantry has a great selection of images, the ants are my favorite, however if you don't want to buy one they have a great selection of free images here. Just for participating you also receive a free image, for this challenge its the Get Well Worm, he's adorable.
This month there will be three randomly chosen winners, 2 will receive a free image of their choice and 1 will receive an image and a prize. To see all of the details of Clearly Delightful challenge #9 you can go to this page. To enter you only have to do 4 simple things:

1. Follow the challenge theme with a project or card-this month's theme is to use a Doodle Pantry Image (that's all) If you don't have one and don't wish to buy one remember the freebie page here.

Happy Baby Bird

I'm posting late today because I woke with a screaming headache so took my meds and went back to bed. Then life got in the way sooo, grocery shopping is done, supper is ready to put in the oven, dog is walked, I finally get to play. This totally adorable stamp is a digital from Doodle Pantry. Clearly Delightful challenge blog has an incredible monthly challenge ( you still have time to enter) where you can create a card AND if you follow their simple rules, you get a free digital stamp. How cool is that! You can use ANY company's stamp, I used Doodle Pantry's because this bird is just way too cute. This is for a baby shower this weekend so I used Lilac and the background paper is... wallpaper, again! If you zoom in on it you can see that its textured and the colours are so perfect for a baby. The challenge this month is to use pearls, bling, and button things. Use one or a combination of all three. I used only pearls and really like how the card turned out. This card also fits Stamp Something recipe challenge this week to use 1 designer paper(wallpaper is still paper, and its gorgeous), 1 ribbon, 1 image.
