Summer Fun

This week at Crafty Sentiments, the challenge is Anything Goes.

For my project, I used Teddy Jack - Bucket and Spade.  In my neck of the woods, summer has arrived and it is time to hit the beach!  I colored this sweet bear with Copic markers.  I didn't have a sand castle embellishment, so I used a Cuttlebug Embossable and an embossing folder that kind of looked like sand.

Inside Job

This week at Creative Knockouts, our challenge to you is to finish the inside of your card.  I almost never finish the inside of my card when I first make them.  I usually wait to see what I am going to use it for.  So this was a challenge for me.

I used Cupcake Mouse from Mo Manning for my project.  He was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette cameo.  He has some silver Wink of Stella on the stars of his cupcake for a little extra shimmer.

For the inside, I repeated the image but just in black and white.  I also repeated the silver Wink of Stella.  I used some of the papers from the front and a glittery star to finish.

You have a chance to win a $6 gift certificate from our sponsor, Di's Digi Stamps.  You can click the badge below to check out the shop.

Do you normally finish the inside of your card right away?

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!

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!

Vacation

Welcome back to another challenge at Crafty Sentiments.  The new release has been delayed, so this week the challenge is Bright Colors.  We should have the new release for you soon.

I have used Vacation Begins and colored her with Copic markers.  My co-worker gave me some embellishments that she wasn't going to use and these beach stickers were among the items she gave me!  How perfect are they for this stamp?!

Splish Splash

Welcome back to the Creative Knockouts challenge.  This week is for the girls.

This sweet mermaid is Sylvie Mermaid and you can find her in the Scrap n' Dipity shop.  I paired her with a paper from Bo Bunny's Barefoot & Bliss collection which you can find digitally on Snap Click Supply.  The paper is doing all of the work on this card so I just added some sea themed embellishments and called it done!

Cute Zebra

Hello Fabrika Fantasy Fans!  Welcome back to the new challenge.  This month the theme is animals.  There are lots to choose from in the shop.  I chose Cute Zebra 3 for my project.

I colored this sweet zebra with Copics and cut it out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I am still building my birthday card stash so I have more for my co-workers and this guy really fit the bill!  I don't have nearly as many cards for my male co-workers, so I am trying hard to get some stashed away. 

You have a chance to win great prizes from Fabrika Fantasy for playing along.  You don't have to use a Fabrika Fantasy image, but if you do you have a chance to win even more!

Lots of Ladybugs

The new challenge at Crafty Gals Corner is anything goes.  I know how you all love an anything goes challenge, so I am limbering up my fingers in anticipation of all of the commenting I will be doing on your lovely projects.

I used Ladybug Stack from Bugaboo Stamps for my project.  I colored the image with Copics and cut it out using my Silhouette Cameo.  I bought the flower embellishments ages ago.  They are from Jolee's Boutique and are sort of flexible.  The kind of smell like crayons.  I have no idea what they are made of, but it was the perfect embellishment for this card! 

We have several sponsors this week, so lots of chances to win prizes.  Click the badges below to go to each shop.
