DYSU #74 UNDER THE SEA





Welcome back to DYSU for another round of fun! Did you guys have fun with the BIRDS challenge last week? It's time for another challenge and this week we're asking you to create something with an UNDER THE SEA theme!
So, get your thinking caps on, and lets see your interpretation of SEA themes!

Here are our generous sponsors for this week: 


* $10 Gift Certificate 

* Winner’s Choice of 3 Digis

* $15 Gift Certificate

My card this week was made using some Melonheadz images.  I combined a few images and then sponged the background to create an under the sea scene.  While I was making my card I realized I am out of practice with my sponging.  I need to work a few projects with it to get used with the technique again. 
 It's funny how we have all the techniques in our heads but if we don't practice there's no way our hands can do as told LOL!  Here is my card.  


Hope you have a great day and see you at the DYSU blog with your under the sea creation!!!

#73 BIRD




Welcome back to DYSU for another round of fun! Did you guys have fun with the Landscape challenge last week? It's time for another challenge and this week we're asking you to Use Birds in Your Creations!

So, get your thinking caps on, and lets see your interpretation of Birdy themes!





This week we have three wonderful sponsors:




* Winner Choice of 4 Images




* Winner’s Choice of 5 Digital Stamps



Little Claire's Designs



I am using the stamp Fuzzy Owl from Meljen's Designs.  Love this chubby OWL!  This week I went hybrid!!!  The base of the card was made with a digital paper from the Basic Grey collection Phoebe.  I printed the card base with the background paper and the full image  of the owl and the tree. Then I colored the tree, leaves and flowers, pieced them and finally Incorporated them to my card using mounting tape.  Finally I hand stitched a border using orange floss.  


I really hope you have a great day.  I am preparing myself for a new weekend full of great possibilities.  See you at the DYSU BLOG!!!!

Hugs!!

Welcome back for another round of fun! Did you guys have fun with the Circles challenge last week? It's time for another challenge and this week we're asking you to 
USE A FLOWER!


  
We have 3 amazing sponsors this week:





 $15 store credit




 
Winner’s Choice of 5 Digis



Winners Choice of 1 Clear Stamp set



My card this week was made using the Flowers set from Inspired Stamps.  I loved how I was able to make a 3D flower using one of the images from the set.  I stamped the flower 4 times in two different shades of pink paper. Then I paper pieced the flowers and also make slits on some of the petals.  Glued all the flowers together alternating colors and my 3D flower was finished.



 I hope you have a great day!!  

Hugs,
