Hugs

This week at the Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends, we have a new challenge.  Our challenges are always anything goes, so you have two weeks to enter any project.  Just make sure you are a follower so you are eligible to win.

This week I used the sweet Emma & Ellie with Wings digi from Conie Fong.  What a cutie!  She was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette.  The patterned paper, tag, ribbon slides and bow are all from the Designer Grunge collection by Michele R Designs.  Such gorgeous colors and patterns, let me tell you!  It was so hard to make a decision on what to use for this project.  I added the word "hugs" to the tag in the Silhouette design software before I printed it out.

We have two fabulous sponsors for you this challenge.  You can click the badges below to take a look at all of the wonderful goodness you could win.

For this week's challenge, I used Love Birds by Ching-Chou Kuik.  Her designs are always so gorgeously detailed!  I also used papers by MR Designs from the In the Garden collection.  These papers are gorgeously shabby chic!  You need to check them out!  This image was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette.

Unicorn Magic

Hello everyone and welcome back to another challenge at the Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends.  Our challenges are always anything goes and we love seeing all of your projects.

This week I used Unicorn Maiden from MoonFlower Digital Stamps and colored her with Copics. Andreia's stamps are so beautiful and detailed.  I also used the Vintage Garden Party collection from Michele R Designs.  The collection comes with a set of 6x6 papers, tags, ribbon slides, bows, inserts and more.  All of the embellishments on my card are from the collection.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out each of the elements I wanted to use.  The words on the tags were added in the Silhouette software as well before printing.  It makes it so easy to size the words for the tag!

We have two wonderful sponsors this week.  You can click each badge below to pop over and check out their shops.

Gettin' Shabby!

This is my first official challenge post for the Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.  I am so excited!  I got to work with the wonderful Whimsy Romance pack from Michele R Designs.  There are so many gorgeous papers and elements in this pack!

I used Whimsy Romance paper #4 (it ended up mostly covered under the second layer) and insert #3.  I also used a tag, banner, and paper bow from the pack.  I cut the die using paper #2.  I love the print and cut feature on my Silhouette Cameo.  It made using the elements even easier and everything is digital so you can scale it to whatever size works for your project.

The only thing I was missing was a stamp!  I used As You Wish from Tiddly Inks and colored it with Copics.  Fans of The Princess Bride will see the inspiration!

The challenge at Tiddly Inks is anything goes, so I am entering this in that challenge as well.
