Celebrate

Hello everyone!  It's Thursday so that means it is time for a new challenge at Creative Knockouts.  This week we have an anything goes theme to get back into the swing of things after the holidays.


This week I used Party Cats from SLS Lines and colored them with Copic markers.  They were cut using my Silhouette Cameo.  This is the first time I have ever made a shaker card and I am pretty pleased with the way it turned out.  I learned a few things for next time, though.  I thought this card was awesome for New Year's but it also works for a birthday card.

I didn't have a star die, so I cut the star using a Silhouette cut file.  I used the same cut file to make the star frame as well.  The sentiment is also a Silhouette cut file.  You can't tell in the picture, but the paper is a gorgeous gold glitter paper.  It is a printable glitter card stock, but I don't think I will ever print on it.  It is so sparkly in real life!

SLS Lines is our awesome sponsor this week.  You have the chance to win three digital stamps from the shop.  Click on the badge below to head over and start making your wish list.

With an anything goes challenge, it is so easy to play along.  I hope to see your project in the challenge!

Star Stampz has a New to You challenge.  The Party Cats love their new shaker window and their new home on this card so they are going to play in that challenge. (both the digi and shaker technique are new to me)

Sassy Studio Designs has an anything goes challenge.  These Party Cats would like to play in that challenge.

Quirky Crafts has a celebrate challenge.  These Party Cats are set to go and are going to celebrate in the challenge.
