Whimsie Doodles November Challenge and a VERY EXCITING Announcement

It is time for a new challenge on the Whimsie Doodles blog! This month, we are challenging our fans/readers to a Tag, You're It theme. You can decorate a tag or use a tag as the focal point of a card or other project.I used one of the adorable images from the 'Tis the Season Images set to decorate the tag above. Once it was ready to go, I created the sentiment banner and adhered it to my 'snowy' card base.

And now the really exciting part...

Starting this month there will be two (2) lucky winners. In addition to the random winner, there is now a chance for one (1) lucky player to win a Guest Artist spot during a future month! Make sure to see THIS post for all of the details - I hope you will play along.

Just the details… (1) Placed mini red buttons over the buttons on the image, (2) Adhered the layers with foam tape, (3) Stamped my sentiment in red and hand-cut the banner shape, (4) For my snowy hills, I used an oldie-but-goody technique - paper tearing, (5) Colored the image with colored pencils.

New Cards in My Etsy Store

Pin ItA couple weeks ago I shared that I had opened an Etsy store. Today I uploaded some NEW cards, that you can give to a special teacher, or teacher friend, in your life.

I used the same background as my Personalized Teacher Note Cards, but used different teacher related quotes that I found during an online search.

Each card is 3-hole-punched, as the right corners rounded and features a paper-pieced apple atop a cork scalloped circle.

You can check out my Etsy store HERE.
