The Outlawz Progressive Challenge


There's a monthly Outlawz Progressive Freebie Challenge and this month we received this adorable Juggling Tiger by Gerda Steiner.  I didn't mean to wait 'til the last minute, but a few unexpected things came up that I wanted to participate in, so I just managed this under the wire, as it ends tomorrow.  I used digital paper from Gecko Galz Life is a Circus pack behind him and colored him with Copics with a little fur detail from Prismacolor pencils.  I added clear epoxy dots to the balls because they fit and I was in too big a hurry to wait for Glossy Accents to dry. The sentiment is a peel off sticker and I've added little stars to the banner and called it done.  Too bad I didn't get it finished in time for the Cat Lover's Blog Hop.  I'm going through withdrawals, but this is at least a big kitty.

I'm also adding this to the Share your Designs Challenge at Gerda Steiner.

Another Quickie Post for the Last Day of the Cat Lover's Hop


WooHoo!  I did another card for the final day of the Cat Lover's Hop at Her Peaceful Garden.  My eyeballs are going buggie from the last few days of intense coloring (not just for the Hop) but I saw a link on Fiki's Blog for a freebie called Happy Fall Cat from Gerda Steiner Designs in Celebration of National (World?) Cat Day (I've read both, but finally looked it up, and today is NATIONAL CAT DAY.  WORLD CAT DAY is August 8th but certainly cats are such awesome creatures that they deserve more than ONE DAY.  In fact, once a month sounds good to me.)  So there ya go!  The digi was so cute, I just had to color it up immediately, using the png version on a Fall background from the Gecko Galz Fall into Nature Collage sheet.  I love using collage and digi papers with my digital stamps.  I've colored Happy Fall Cat with Copics with a little fur detail from Prismacolor pencils and used a rub-on from MAMBI for the sentiment.




Thanks to Janis at Her Peaceful Garden for organizing this fabulous Hop and to all the wonderful sponsors and participants.  It has truly been amazing.  And please don't forget to comment on my first project post of the day HERE for a chance to win my namesake Donna Kitty digi stamp by Sandra Caldwell



I'm also entering this (just under the wire) in the Gecko Galz October Fall into Autumn Customer challenge, and the Gerda Steiner Share your Designs Challenge.
