Berry Best

 This week at Creative Knockouts our theme is anything goes.

I used Spring Strawberry from Star Stampz for my project.  The image was colored with Copics.  The sentiment is from the Silhouette Design store and I just colored it and printed it instead of cutting it.  I colored a white flower using the matching Copic marker.

You have a chance to win 2 images from Star Stampz just for playing along.  The badge below will take you to the shop for a browse.

Say Cheese

 This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge is Birthday Greetings.


I used Birthday Cheese from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps for my project.  While I was working on it, I had the idea to make the picture into a shaker element.  It seemed like a good idea at the time, but it took me four tries to get it right!  When making a shaker, be sure your frame is pointing the correct direction as you are gluing on the acetate and foam!

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.

Snow Boardin'

 This week at Creative Knockouts our challenge is to use die cuts or punches.


I used Snow Boardin' from Sheepski Designs for my project.  I colored this cute little guy with Copic markers and cut him out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I used a variety of landscape dies to create the hills of snow behind him.  Rather than having it completely white, I mixed in some sparkly blue glitter paper and some shiny silver paper.  It isn't mirror and is textured, but it has so much shine!  I considered using a sentiment but I couldn't decide what to use.  I think I am leaning toward winter wooshes. =P

Hug in a Mug

 This week at Creative Knockouts our challenge is something to say.  Add a sentiment to your project.


I used Le Pine Margaret Coffee from Mirtillamente stamps for my project.  The sentiment is a Silhouette cut file that I have had rolling around in my craft space for ages.  I printed it and it didn't fit my project, but knew it would work someday!  I colored the image with Copics and cut her out using the Silhouette Cameo as well.

You have a chance to win 2 digis of your choice for playing along.  This is a new sponsor for our team so go check out the shop and give a little love.
