Mornin' y'all! I continue to be on a crafty winning streak this week : ) And today Ryan has an extracurricular class after school so I get extra crafting time, woo! And AND I have new stuff to show off today!!
This adorable little dragon is from a soon-to-drop online exclusive stamp set called Inspiration Squad and I Had To Have It because dragon (duh) but also this dragon reminds me of Pocket Dragons, which are little collectible dudes of extremely adorable dragons and I have a few of them. Pocket Dragons are soft green, but I had to play along with the Color Hues challenge:
I used Fresh Freesia and Pool Party, and I did a mirror image of the TGIF Challenges sketch:
I have been wanting to play with this sketch all week but I have crafty ADHD sometimes. I was going to use more of the Holographic Gems (also upcoming online exclusives) but then I just really liked the look of one next to the cutie pie dragon. It looks like a magical gem, right?
But that wasn't the first Pocket Dragon card I made, this is:
I had been staring at the previous Color Hues challenge for ages and I of course as soon as I made this card the challenge ended ; ) My fault, I took too long.
I couldn't resist adding a few Tinsel Gems (those are my favorites, I'd love to have those in more colors, buy them while you can because they're on the last chance list) which might push this my card to the edge of CAS territory but I couldn't help it.
Okay, I dropped Ryan off at school and then did the grocery shopping, so now I'm going to have my much-delayed breakfast and then go spend time with Daph. Cheers!

Oh, Christy, I am sorry you missed the Orange and Teal challenge but delighted that you decided to use the same darling stamp for our current challenge. So happy you shared both of them with us here. That cutie pie dragon is just that! Cute! Thanks for playing along at Color Hues.
Awwwwww...that little dragon is so ADORABLE Christy! He looks perfect in the aqua and lilac color combo, but just as sweet in the orange and teal (sorry you missed the deadline on that one!)! Thanks so much for sharing both of these cuties with us at Color Hues!! Marcia (DT) :0)
Oh my goodness - that dragon is beyond cute!! He reminds me of the one in 'How To Train Your Dragon' - but more colourful! I love both of these cards and as for your CC&S card - I think the trio of teal gems really make it a CAS winner!
Awwww...your little dragon is absolutely adorable - and clearly he's charming in any colour. Sorry you missed the Colour Hues' orange and teal challenge, but thrilled you joined us for lilac and aqua.
