C.R.A.F.T. Challenge and Scribbles Designs!

We (at Scribbles Designs!) are sponsoring the C.R.A.F.T. Challenge at Trimmie's this week!  The challenge is to Use metal/add a charm!  Here's my project:

I used the digi called Tropical Fish 2 (there are many fish to choose from!).  I colored her with Copics.  I added some Basic Gray paper (cut some waves into it with a circle punch).  I made a tag and used that as part of the background as well.  I finished it off with some linen thread, a metal charm, a paper anchor, and some dew drops.  

Can't wait to see the other creations!

There's a new challenge at Lia Stampz this fortnight! We want to see you use up your scraps! 

Here is my project:

I used the digi called Christmas Reindeer.  I colored him with Copics and texturized him.  My scraps are 1.5" pieces of various scrap papers that I glued together and ran through my Big Shot with the Stampin Up top note die and an argyle embossing folder (so it looks like a quilt).  I also added some Stampin Up baker's twine.
