Enjoy the Ride

Hello everyone. Welcome back for another challenge over at Crafty Gals Corner. This week we challenge you to use scraps! I know I have a ton of scraps and I try to use them before I cut a new sheet of paper. With all of the scraps I have, I will never cut a new sheet!

This is Enjoy the Ride from Graciellie Design. Both the stamp and the sentiment were printed on Cryogen White. I colored the bike with Copics and cut it out using my Silhouette Cameo.

All of the papers used on this card are from Paper Temptress. Such gorgeous papers! All of these scraps except for the red came from the previous project I did using Paper Temptress papers. The Red Pepper Epic Thick Columns was in a sample pack I received while at a craft retreat over the summer. Also, the only paper that was not a scrap was the black base made from the Epic Black Thick Columns. That sample pack started my love of Paper Temptress papers! So much gorgeousness in one little bag! The gold die cut is the Antique Gold Mica/Metallic in text weight. The smaller die was cut from the Candido Incandescent in card stock weight. The border was punched from Opal in card stock weight. Both Candido and Opal have a lovely golden sheen to them. It is hard to capture it in a photo, but in real life they are amazing! I love that you can get the paper in various weights depending on what you will use it for. The layer under the sentiment is a scrap of Grandpa's Wallpaper overlay. It is a gold pattern printed on acetate. So gorgeous! I wanted the roses to have a golden sheen to them as well, so I swiped my Wink of Stella gold pen over them. It gave them the perfect touch.

I could go on all day about the papers from Paper Temptress! But I should give you the rest of the details about the challenge. We have four wonderful sponsors this week! Click the badge to head over to the shop and feast your eyes on all of the loveliness!

Spring Blessings

It is crazy how quickly a week goes by when you have a regular way to mark the time! I am of course referring to the new challenge at the Crafty Gals Corner challenge blog. This week is the favorite theme of anything goes! We know how you all love those! We have a couple of wonderful sponsors so hop over and join us.

I used the Spring Blessings digital set from Graciellie for my project. I know it is summer, but this is just the most gorgeous set! You can use it for so many things. You can color it red for a love you card or yellow for a thinking of you card, or even pink for friendship or gratitude. (Why, yes...I did look it up to find out additional meanings!) You get two butterflies already mirrored, the sentiment and the gorgeous rose. I cut the card shape using Spellbinders Labels 20. I thought it made for a really nice base for this image. I used a little clear Wink of Stella on the butterfly wings to make them sparkle. You can just see it in the picture if you get close enough! =P

Our fabulous sponsors this week are:

Graciellie Design

Prize of the Spring Blessings stamp set

and

Prize of a $10 gift certificate

Hopping and Celebrating

Welcome to your next stop on the Crafty Gals Corner blog hop. We are celebrating our new design team and I am excited to be one of the newbies. I am looking forward to inspiring you each week. You should have come here from Mari's blog. If you didn't and you would like to start from the beginning, you can find the full list below. Our challenge this week is A Ray of Sunshine. You need to use yellow on your project.

I used Messy Bessy IMG 813 from My Besties for my project. She is colored with Copics. The background paper is from GracieEllie Design. I printed the paper twice and cut out some of the flowers from the second one and popped them up.

We have three wonderful sponsors for the challenge this week (clicking the badge will take you to the shop):
