The Cat's Pajamas Meets Blogger's Challenge!

Good Morning Friends and Happy Friday! Today's card combines two of my favorite weekly challenges. This week's Blogger's Challenge is to use the colors purple, green, and brown, (just head over to Lisa's Blog if you'd like to play along), and this week's TCP Tuesday Challenge is a sketch challenge, so I combined the two. If you'd like to play with the TCP sketch, you'll find all of the details on Alma's Blog. When I realized that I used the same TCP set that Leigh O'Brien used on her beautiful card for the sketch, I decided to turn the sketch around to give it a little bit of a different look! This delightful rabbit is from the TCP Kick Some Grass set. I colored him up with Copic Markers (E01, E11, E13, R11, R20, R22, V12, V15, YG11, YG13) and then I fussy cut him out. The sentiment is from the TCP A Cuppa set. The purple and green patterned paper is from Doodlebug Designs. The lime-y green polka dotted paper is as well, and the purple card stock (embossed in the 'Bug with the Seeing Spots folder) is from Bazzill. My other accents include the TCP Icing CutUps (turned around to get these wonderful scallops), the TCP Flower Button CutUps, and some Honeydew Baker's Twine. I also added Star Dust Stickles to the stamped flowers to give them a little bit of sparkle.

Thanks so much for visiting with me. Now, I need to get me and my family ready to head off to see the new Smurf movie...La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la!! Have a smurfy day...Toodles! :D

This is adorable. The color scheme is very fun and light. Very different from the purple/green and brown colors I used. It is always interesting how different the colors can be based on the different hues. Can't wait to hear how you all liked the smurf movie. See you soon.
