Birthday Wishes at Creative Knockouts

It's hard to believe the end of January is around the corner, where has it gone?!

Our last challenge of the month at Creative Knockouts is themed Birthday Wishes.  Our sponsor for this challenge is Hetty Clare and the winner will receive 4, yes FOUR images of their choice!

This darling critter is Cute Birthday Mouse and cute he is!  I colored the image with Copic markers.  I wanted the image to be the focal point without the distraction of other colors so I stuck with white.  I cut the image out and used an embossing folder to create the background and die cut the circle in the centre to create a peekaboo.

Thanks for stopping by!

Prize:  4 images

Challenges:
Addicted to Stamps and More - #374 CAS
The Cutie Pie Challenge - #143 Cute, Clean and Simple

Finish the Inside with Creative Knockouts

I'm sitting here at my desk, gazing outside at the beautiful snow and feeling quite peaceful.  While we are not experiencing the deep freeze temperatures like some parts of the Province, for Vancouverites we're freezing!  Coming from a small town up north, my family is used to this weather and I love it, much better than the buckets of rain we normally get this time of year.

With the weather we've been having, it's hard to think about Valentine's Day however I persevered forward for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts.

Our challenge is "Finish the Inside" and our sponsor is Di's Digi Stamps. The winner of this challenge will receive a $6 gift certificate to their store!

 

I have a soft spot for moose, up north it's not uncommon to see them wandering through the neighborhood so when I saw this image I had to have it.  This is Mortimer the Motivational Moose from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. He's soooo darn cute!  The image comes with two motivational verses plus a blank one to create your own.  Since I wanted to make a Valentine's Day card, I chose "I 💓 U".

Of course, staying with the Valentine's theme, the inside sentiment.

I hope you are all staying warm enough to create and finish those insides!  Have fun!
