Time of My Life

 This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge is love/Valentine's Day.

The team used The Time of Mine Life from the Paper Shelter.  I was pressed for time this week but every image from The Paper Shelter comes with a colored version and a background paper.  I used both for my project.  I am not sure how the image ended up being so small, though.  I must have mis-typed the size, but I didn't want to print it again.  

You have a chance to win three images from the paper shelter for playing along.  Check out all of the amazing images in the shop.  You get two black and white, two colored, a paper, and a composite with the paper and a colored image.

Wings or Fur?

 This week at Creative Knockouts, the challenge is Wings & Things or Furry Friends.  What will you choose?

This is Air Fairy from our sponsor Fabrika Fantasy.  She was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  Her wings have clear Wink of Stella because a fairy's wings should definitely sparkle!  I cut some clouds from some glitter cardstock and the die from some shimmer paper to add tons of sparkle and shine.  

You have a chance to win a prize from our fabulous sponsor just for playing along.  Check out the Fabrika Fantasy shop for other great digital images and coloring books.

A Day at the Beach

 This week at Creative Knockouts, we want you to use die cuts or punches on your card.

I used the sand pail from the The Sandbox set by Jan's Digi Stamps.  The sentiment comes from that set as well.  I found this fabulous glitter cardstock from Violet Studio at Tuesday morning.  The glitter does not shed and it is heavier weight.  It cut beautifully. I bought packs in almost every color they had!

Sparkle and Shine

 This week at Creative Knockouts our challenge is make your card sparkle and shine.

I used Lady Sierra from Star Stampz for my project.  She was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I used a product that was new to me from Queen & Co for the gold foiled pieces.  It is called Fun Foil and it only requires adhesive to add the foil to a surface.  No heat, no toner...just adhesive.  Just make sure that you put the correct side on the adhesive...not that I am speaking from experience or anything. =P  I added clear Wink of Stella to her head piece, cape, and dress embellishments.  You can't see it in the picture, but it all has a great glittery sheen.

Sand and Sea

 Welcome back to the new challenge at Creative Knockouts.  Our theme this week is super easy as it is anything goes.

I used Sand Dune Silhouettes from Artsystamper.  I printed the silhouette on some sandy brown paper and cut out the top edge to give some perspective.  I added some paper from the Bo Bunny Popsicle collection for the sea and then some sky.  I popped up one of the cloud dies, the image and the sentiment to give the card some dimension.

Hello Fall

This month our challenge at Crafty Gals Corner is to use fall colors on your project.  I love fall and fall colors.  I don't get to see them where I live now, so this is the best way for me to get to see them.

I used Heidi from Digi Doodle Studios for my project.  She was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  The background paper is from the Bo Bunny Apple Cider collection available digitally on Snap Click Supply.  The gorgeous glitter paper is actually from Dollar Tree!  It is the best glitter paper I have ever used.  It is thick and doesn't shed any glitter whatsover!

You have a chance to win three digital stamps from our sponsor this month.

For my project this week I used Field Flower Silhouettes from The Artsy Stamper.  The image has a transparent background so you can print it with any background or layer it for even more flowers.  The background I chose is from the Bo Bunny Gabrielle collection available digitally from Snap Click Supply.  The sentiment is also from that set.

Spring/Easter Hugs

This month at Crafty Gals Corner, our challenge is Easter or Spring.

I used Cuddle Buns Gets Squished from Creative Bug on the Loose for my project this week.  The fence is part of the image, so I decided to make a little scene.  I thought both of the background papers looked a lot like eggs after they have been dyed.  Ours always had great variations in the density of the dye.  The paper I used for the sky actually came out of a Bo Bunny pad called Cottontail Collection.  The grass paper came from a One Canoe Two pad that just happened to be laying on my counter.  What a happy coincidence!

Winter Fun

The theme at Crafty Gals Corner this week is Winter Fun.

I used Snowboarder Girl from The Paper Shelter.  She is colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I cut some snow from a white glitter and an Astrosilver cardstock.  The clouds are from the Bo Bunny Sun Kissed collection available digitally on Snap Click Supply.  It is one of my favorite papers to use for the sky.  The sentiment is stamped on a cloud left on a scrap of the paper.
