There are weekly and monthy prizes and there is so much fun and inspiration going on there. You can use either the intricate sketch or a more CAS version of the sketch. Makes it easy for everyone to join in.
I used this very cute digi image from Doodle Palace Designs. They have some of the cutest images found here:
I colored in my image with markers, then added dazzling diamonds to the lamb and crystal efffects to the flowers on top of the bear's head, its nose and eyes. Cut out and popped up the image on dimensionals.
I used the Labels 11 nesties for the b/g mats which were embossed with the Seeing Spots ef and sponged. I also added dazzling diamonds on the edges of the first image mat. Per the sketch, I offset the first mat from the 2nd, added pearls and flowers.
I used the MS Chrysan****m punch for the 3 large flowers on the left which were embossed with the SU Lattice ef.
I embossed the whole back panels with Seeing Spots ef and I added a ribbon b/t layers. Also added was the MS ribbon bow punch that was run through the Lattic ef also.
Added my sentiment with the Word Window punch popped up on dimensionals. This card is 5.25x5.25 square.
Thanks SO MUCH for taking the time to look and have a great week!
PT: 6 punches used a total of 10 x!! Woo Hoo!

Look at that sweet, little lamb. Pam, you must have made me another birthday card! I am laying claim to all cards with sheep and lamb images. LOL This is just so precious with all the crystal effects and dazzling diamonds. Great use of the chrysanthemum punch, too. This is such a winner...hope you get a bonus over at the MMSC for this one.

Hey, how can Benzi claim this card. That is not fair....it has a bear on it and the bear is bigger than the lamb...so this is MY card!!! Geez, I am going to have to throw my weight around here....so watch out!!! lol
This is such a darling card. You know that bear speaks to my heart. I love all the punches and embossing and that very sweet paper your used. Such a fabulous rendition of the sketch this week Pamzi!!!

I know Bearzi, that Benzi wants EVERYTHING from us, but she won't send us our free punchez!! She robs from us poor folks and keeps it all to herself. When are we going to oust her as Prez anyway? Guess us poor folks will never have enough money to campaign against her, so we're STUCK!!! LOL!!

I love those pretty colors, Pamzi, and that adorable DP on the right! Your cards are getting more and more intricate all the time. If Bearzi and Benzi are fighting over this card, then you might have to pull a King Solomon and threaten to tear this down the middle so each can have "her" animal. That should settle down the fighting!! Who could possibly imagine tearing up a sweet card like this????

Ms Fruitcake, how cute is this? What a darling image surrounded by all that glitter, embossing and primas. Cards cant possibly get any sweeter than this. See, you do good when you continue to focus for more than 5/10 minutes at a time.

Hi Pam..your card this week is just A-DOR-A-BLE. Along with your image, my favorite part about this card is your color combo and those pearls. Well done. Thank you for bringing your talent once again to the Midnight Madness sketches.
