Unicornmania

This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge is to have Something to Say.  Use a sentiment on your project and you can play along!


This week I used Unicornmania from The Paper Shelter for my project.  Unicorns have always been popular, but now they are everywhere!  And everything has a unicorn horn!  This sweet girl came with a background paper as well, but it was square and I couldn't make it fit my card.  My sentiment is a simple foiled tag that I found in the Target dollar bins.  Love rummaging through those bins!

You have a chance to win fabulous prizes from The Paper Shelter in our challenge.  Three digital images will go to this week's winner.  You can click the badge below to check out all of the darling images in the shop.  Each image comes in a pack with a background paper, two colored images, two black and white images, and a composite of the colored image on the background paper.  With those sweet faces staring at you, it will be difficult not to fill your cart!

Bitty Birthday

This week at Creative Knockouts we have a challenge that is sure to put a little bling on your project!  We want to see you sparkle and shine!


This is Little Miss Bitty from Fred She Said Designs.  She was colored with Copic markers.  It is hard to capture sparkle and shine on the camera, but she has a ton!  Her wings have clear Wink of Stella.  The die is cut from glitter paper.  The sentiment was done using the Foil Quill on my Silhouette Cameo, so it has a ton of shine!  And of course, all of the gems are sparkly!

You have a chance to win a $10 gift certificate to be used in the shop.  Click the badge below to see all of the amazing images!  Little Miss Bitty comes with several versions in both JPG and PNG formats all in one package!

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.

You have a chance to win prizes from our fabulous sponsors for playing along.  Click the badges below to see what each sponsor has available.

Yippee Skippy!

This week at Crafty Sentiments we have an Anything Goes challenge for you. 


I used Skip Skip for my project and colored her with Copic markers.  I kept the design fairly simple this week.  I have been working a lot of over time at work and it is severely diminishing the amount of crafty time I have!  I used the cross stitch die and stitched banner dies from Rubbernecker Stamps.  I like the layers of stitching!  The scalloped die is from My Favorite things.  There is a touch of silver Wink of Stella on her buttons.

You have a chance to win some great Crafty Sentiments prizes for playing along.


I hope to see you there!

Time for Vacation

It is time for a new challenge at Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends.  The challenge is always anything goes, so I hope you will play along.


This is Vacation Winnie from Polkadoodles.  She has her bag packed and is ready to head to the beach.  Of course I had to pack my bag of embellies so I could go too!  The image was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette.  A co-worker gave me all of the fabulous beach embellishments.  They worked so well for this image!

You have a chance to win a gift certificate for £6.75 for playing along.  You can use it for the fabulous goodies in the shop.  Click the badge  below to check it all out.
