Sending Smiles

Our new challenge at Crafty Gals Corner is embossing.  We are transitioning to a once monthly challenge, so you have plenty of time to enter.  Unfortunately, I forgot to look at the challenge theme before making my card.  Luckily, I was able to add some embossing without having to start over!

I used Happy Mail Panda from Kitty Bee Designs for my project.  The image was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  The background paper is from the Bright Travels collection from Jenni Bowlin Studio.  You can find the collection digitally on Snap Click Supply.  The sentiment stamp is from DeNami Designs.

It is time for another challenge at the Crafty Gals Corner.  This week the challenge is Luck of the Irish.  We want to see a shamrock or clover on your project.

I used Coffee or Tea Panda from Kitty Bee Designs.  I placed him on a background paper from Nitwit Collections' Bit O' Blarney papers.  I cut out a shamrock from a scrap and placed it over the heart on the panda's cup.  The sentiment was created using the Silhouette software.  It was a cut file that is filled and printed.

This week at Crafty Gals Corner, our theme is Anything Fall Goes.  So if it has a fall theme, it is welcome in our challenge this week.

I used I Love Fall Season Panda from Kitty Bee Designs for my project.  The paper I used for the sky is an old digital file from Dee Dee's Digis.  I am pretty sure the site is gone now, but I love this paper and use it for so many fall themed projects.  The paper I used for the ground is from NitWit Collections Coffee Talk collections.  It is actually coffee beans!  The stamp came from the Rubbernecker Stamps Coffee Set and I cut it out using the Rubbernecker Stamps Stitched Banner dies.

Happy Blogaversary!

This week at the Crafty Gals Corner we are celebrating our third blogaversary.  How do we celebrate?  Well with a blog hop of course!  We have ten amazing sponsors for this challenge so there are a lot of prizes to be won.  The theme is anything goes so it is really easy to play along.

This sweet Snow Penguin is from Kitty Bee Designs.  I know Christmas is over, but a co-worker requested a Christmas card using this image when she saw me coloring it at work.  So he got to go to someone special.  He was colored with Copic markers.  The sentiment is a Silhouette cut file that I filled and printed rather than cut.  The snowball is actually a puff from EK Success that is intended to be used for chalking.  It made the perfect snowball embellishment!

Super Duper

We are starting a new challenge over at Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends.  Our challenges are always anything goes so it is so easy to play along with us.

For my project I used Superhero Panda and I colored him with Copic markers.  There wasn't a ton of coloring needed for this little guy, so I added some shading to his white areas.  He was cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I also cut the shapes behind him using this cut file from the Silhouette Design Store.  The papers are both available as digital downloads on the Snap Click Supply website.

You have a chance to win some awesome prizes from our sponsors.  The badges below are linked each shop for easy shopping.

Oh my CAS!

Hello!  Hello!  Another week has sped by and that means it is time for another new challenge at the Crafty Gals Corner.  Our challenge to you is CAS!  Did that make you break out into a cold sweat?!  It did me!  But I took on the challenge and made it through!

I used sweet Narwhal Love from Kitty Bee Designs for my card.  My daughter loves Narwhals and her birthday is coming up.  So...shhhh...don't ruin the surprise!  A little embossing, a few pearls and BOOM! this card was done.  All that white space gives me the shivers though.  I just feel like I need to fill it up.  The image was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the silhouette.

We have three fabulous sponsors this week.  Click below to pop over and shop.
