DOODLE DRAGON STUDIOS CHALLENGE - OUTDOORS

Good Morning and Happy Sunday!
Happy Earth Day today too!
Over at Dustin's place we are having a challenge - "Outdoors". See what you can come up with using one of Dustin's images with an outdoor theme. For my contribution I chose one of Dustin's new images, this cute frog hanging out on his hammock. Kind of where I'd like to be right now, over the water in a hammock doing nothing at all! Not that I'll have the chance to do that but it's worth dreaming about!
As Dustin is also celebrating his 3rd Anniversary this week you might want to check out his site if you haven't already. He's got some awesome offerings, including this 77 images for a mere $10.00
Click HERE and go get it before it's too late.....Today is the last day to grab this deal! 
Soooo, whatc'ha waiting for? Hop on over and get these fabby images. 
Have a great day!
Hugs,

DOODLE DRAGON STUDIOS CHALLENGE - MAKE US SMILE


Happy Easter!
I'm sure most of you are enjoying your Easter celebrations and making the most of this special day. Over at Pike's Playground we are having another challenge and we want you to -Make us smile! Use any of Dustin's images and produce a project that would put a smile on someone's face. I used this fabby dragon image with his tail in flames coz as soon as I saw it it made me laugh! I can't take credit for the sentiment, I'd seen it somewhere on the internet and figured it fit my card for this challenge.  
I picked the cupcake dp and chocolate colors to go along with it as it's Easter weekend and the thought of chocolate covered dragons sounded pretty good....or would you rather chocolate bunnies instead? In England we have such great Easter eggs, hollow chocolate with delicious goodies inside but I've not been able to find them over here and if anyone was to send one over from the UK, customs would have a field day with them!
Anyway, enough chocolate talk, I'm getting hungry! Hope you'll join us this week for this fun challenge and don't forget to check out my DT sisters creations.  
Have a great week!
Hugs,
Charlotte

I have a very special image on my card which was drawn by my son's art teacher, Lori Nadaskay! If you like her images you can check her etsy site out HERE. She has some really pretty flowers, contemporary artwork and some lovely, cute little critters too! Lori has a special going on right now that if you purchase one digi, then email her the photo of what you create with it, she'll give you another digi image for equal or lesser value for free! That's a great deal if you ask me! You can also check her out on facebook too! 
My project was actually made from a paper bag which I folded half way up and made into a pocket which holds the tag and could also fit a gift card for a special someone. The image is colored with copics, decorated edge and butterfly were done with Martha Stewart punches, flourishes completed using ink and a stencil from Layers of Color, flowers and lace were from my stash.
Thanks for stopping by today! Don't forget to stop on over at Midnight Madness and join in with the sketch  challenge this month...just remember you have the entire month to play!
Have a wonderful day!
Hugs, 
Charlotte
