Tellen's Place Wednesday Challenge - All About Me!

Happy Wednesday!  Welcome to another challenge from Tellen's Place.  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

This week's challenge is "All About Me!"  It is up to you what you would like to create.  Make something that is reflective of who you are.  The only thing asked is that there must be a Tellen's Place design in your creation - past or present.  If you don't have any images, head on over to the store to purchase an image or two or to the challenge blog to see past freebie images to grab.  Be sure to leave a link to your creation on the challenge blog to Mr. Linky.

Owner Terry had her son Markus create look alike designs of all the team members, which turned out awesome! I wanted to create something with my image that wasn't a card.  Below is what I created with my image:

Markus did such a great job with my image.  I don't own a pogo stick nor have I ever been on one, but I love how the whole idea reflects who I am - active.  Active wife and an active mom. :)

The wood frame is from Michaels' dollar bin. :)  I used ink pads from Tim Holtz distress ink collection to color the frame - worn lipstick and dusty concord. The letters are also from Tim Holtz, made of "grungeboard," wonderful material that is flexible and can stand any kind of altering, such as sanding, cutting and inking.  I used the same color ink for the letters and added some Stickles glitter glue - fruit punch to the word "active."  The foam flowers are from Createology.

I colored my image with the following Copic colors:

W3, E39, E00, R20, V15, R37 and the colorless blender

Be sure to check out the other design team's designs. Markus did a super job with their designs as well:

Tellen's Designs Weekly Wednesday Challenge - Spring Is In The Air!

It is Wednesday and time again for another challenge from Tellen's Place!  This week's challenge is all about spring!  Bring out anything you have that has to do with spring - flowers, bright colors, whatever you choose!  For details on this week's challenge, head on over to the challenge blog, where you will also find this week's freebie - Bike Ride Jessica!

Here is my card:

To go along with the "spring" theme, I wanted to do a different card layout and found a tutorial called a spring card on Splitcoast Stampers.  Check out the tutorial here!  What I love about the card is that it takes one piece of 8.5" x 11" paper!  When folded flat, the card can fit into a 5.5" envelope to mail.

Designer paper is from My Mind's Eye.  The buttons are leftovers from my stash.  The brown twine is from May Arts. Bug Catcher Joey was 3D pop-dotted and colored with the following Copic colors:

E00, E35, Y17, G94, R20 and W3

Be sure to visit Tellen's Place store and check out the other images available.  There are wonderful kits available as well for purchase this month!

Thanks for stopping by!
