It's Saturday!?! wow where did that week go?! : )
I have been making more cards than I have been posting these days so I thought I would try to catch up and post some cards as well as play along with some of my favorite challenges.
I began to replenish my card stash in January. I have lots and lots of cards to make for the year so I usually duplicate designs that I really like to save time. All of my cards today use the exact same design and sentiment : ) and all were colored with Copic markers.
It is funny because when I first started coloring with Copic markers I was pretty happy with the results but after looking at a lot of different YouTube tutorials I realize my coloring is painfully amateur! and I feel a little embarrassed to post them. The only reason I am is because I think I will like looking back over time to see my progress!
My first card is a fun furbaby to enter in the CASology challenge.
My next card is a fun furbaby to enter in the Watercooler Wednesday challenge where they are looking for: anything goes with a masculine twist.
I am wild about this funny dog! I do not have any furbabies but if I did I would love one just like this!!
All of my cards have an embossed number panel under the circular window so I will include these cards in the Just Add Ink challenge too : )
That is is for me today. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend! and I hope to see you again very soon.
BIG (((HUGS)))

Your coloring is just fine. Don't you worry about a thing, girl. Your cards are sweet and fun, and I know my neighbor would love your card with the French bulldog on it. He's a hoot! Glad I'm not the only one who's holed up in their craft room on a roll! This is a sweet trio of cards, and I look forward to seeing more! xo Bev
I agree, your coloring looks great to me! And hey, when you get a good design figured out why not roll with and make multiples, right! These are cute Patti. That dog gave me a giggle! Thanks for your sweet comment today XO
What a great set of cards. I love your little dog and he's perfect for our challenge. Thanks for joining us at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

Great cards and I think you did wonderful coloring on them. Thanks for sharing.
I think you are a great colorist! These cards are delightful and bring a smile. Great job. I like that you select a design you like and go with it. Great idea and helps whittle down the list of cards you need to make. Thanks so much for sharing, Patti. I'm always delighted to see a post from you! Hugs!
Cute, cute, cute! Your adorable dog makes me smile and the "Number" embossing is perfect for a birthday card. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday.
These are all gorgeous, Patti! Absolutely nothing wrong with your colouring - it's beautiful! The dog is precious!
These cards are wonderful and you have given me so many ideas for cards that I need. So stinking creative.
Your cute bitmoji had me expecting to find cats on those cards, Patti! But I'm loving your Leading Ladies, and the pups... the sentiment couldn't be more perfect to accompany that wonderful embossing!

I really like your coloring--no worries there. Really cute design on all of them, with the numbers embossed in the window, and your furbabies are so cute. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
I admire you for managing to accumulate a stash of cards, Patti! Mine go out as fast as I can make them! You've got three charming delights for us today! Love the way you put the e/f inside the circle! And I agree about that goofy looking dog!! Enjoy your Sunday! Hugs, Darnell
Yes time just goes by so quickly x Wonderful trio of cards and perfectly CAS and so wonderfully designed. The images are adorable and your colouring is fabulous Patti x
I adre the face on that cute little doggie - great card Patti. Lovely colouring and clever use of all the die cute numbers. Thanks for joining us at the Watercooler Wednesday CHallenge this week. Tristan DT.
I have always LOVED your coloring Patti...definitely doesn't look amateurish to me!! Three fantastic cards, but I have to say the bulldog card is my favorite...oh does he make me smile! Love how you used the number embossing folder for your backgrounds too...perfect for birthday cards!!! Hugs my friend! :0)
I've always admired your coloring skills Patti! You're artistic in every way that I wish I was. Your cards are all expertly colored and perfectly put together. That dog cracks me up!!
These are all such fun cards Patti. I love the contrast of your really nicely coloured figures with the embossed white pattern behind. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week. Kim
Such a pretty collection of cards and I can't choose a favourite, Patti. I love how you've enclosed the embossing in a frame and how the white on white is so soft and subtle and lets the beautifully coloured images shine. Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week.
Great cards Patti! Love the design with such sweet images. Your copic colouring is fantastic ... you are too hard on yourself! Always great to get a stash of cards make. I need to do more multiples. xx
I think your coloring looks mighty fine, Patti. I think we're always hard on ourselves when it comes to things like that. Your ladies are all lovely and the design with the sentiment and numbers work well for all the images.
