Another New Release from Doodle Pantry



Woo hoo! The first of the month means another new release from Doodle Pantry. As usual Laurie has knocked it out of the ball park with this release! I used two of the new sets this month to make some cards. The first set is called Football Birdie. I picked this set because I wanted to make my son Dan a thank you for taking me to the Colts game last weekend for my birthday. 



I used the Colts symbol and added it to the birdie’s helmet; then colored his jersey blue like the Colt’s color. I used a sentiment and background paper from the same set, Spellbinder dies to cut the image and give it a scalloped background, and made a football out of the sentiment. I could use a little practice making footballs. LOL!
I am entering these challenges:
My second card is made with a pre-colored image from Pumpkin Pie Ants. Just love these ants. They are always up to something. 





I used scraps of Basic Grey paper to create the diagonal background for the sentiment which is cut from a Quick Cutz die. The image and background for the image are cut with Spellbinder dies. This is the set that is free with purchase this month.
I am entering these challenges:
Be sure to check out the Doodle Pantry challenge at noon today. Use any Doodle Pantry image to get a free set of digital stamps. This month the free set is Poppies.



Thanks for stopping by today for the new release! Please check out all the wonderful inspiration from my DT sisters.

Good Grief....they are all wonderful! I love the extra background you added to the birdie. I found ants in my kitchen last night and was freaking out, but I do love the ants at Doodle Pantry. And lastly, I love those poppies and you bet I will join the challenge to get them...lol

Lucky you, getting to go to a Pro game! Both of your cards are wonderful. Love the football and the way you framed your "Colt". The pie ants are so cute and your focus on that image is perfect.
