Crafty Gals Corner Challenge - January 2020

Oh my goodness! Has 2019 already come and gone?? I can't believe we've already started a brand new year....2020!! I hope that last year was good to you, and that this New Year will bring you a lot of blessings! 

So for this Crafty Gals Corner January challenge, we are "celebrating" winter! Our theme for this challenge is: 

Winter Fun

And our sponsor for this challenge is:

The Paper Shelter

Prize: 3 Digital Stamps

Wow! Did you see that the winner will receive 3 Digital Stamps as the prize? I hope that you will join us for your chance to win the prize! Now let's check out what I made for this month's challenge. I used an image called Penguin Friends.  I think the penguins are just so adorable!  Here's my card:

I love the sentiment for this card! It was perfect for the image! Although I'm not a big fan of winter/cold weather, cuddling is one of the benefits for staying warm throughout the season! (I don't know if I really need a reason to just hug, as I am a huggy kind of person anyway...lol.)

My card is pretty CAS. I basically just mounted her onto a card foundation with 2 colors, black and pink. I hope the pink is showing up for you ok. I'm working with 2 monitors, and the one is more pink than the other. 

I originally had her in blues, but for some reason it didn't set well with me. I like the pink better, in this case. I used my Spectrum Noir markers to color her.

I hope that you will find this inspiration for you to join our challenge! Thanks for stopping in!

Miniature Sidewalk Billboard

Hello, everyone! And welcome to to my blog! I have another project for you, using a digital kit called Soda Fountain Shoppe Kit, from TaylorMadeCards4U! . This kit is the prize package for the winner over at Crafter's Castle challenge blog. Check it out!

Here is what I've created:

This kit gave me the inspiration to make a miniature sidewalk billboard sign...and it went on from there! I had a ton of fun creating it! It reminded me of calmer, less stressful days. I remember going into a shop back home that had a soda fountain....plus a pharmacy. Really, I do! And I'll always treasure that in my heart! Below is a link to how I created this fun project (my sister now has this....she wanted it for her birthday, so home with her it went!) 

Now here's the promo sheet for this kit:

My fellow teammie, Debrah Jenkins, has a blog on her creation....Check it out! https://debbiejscraftingcorner.com/card-and-memorydex-soda-fountain-shoppe-taylormadecards4u/?fbclid=IwAR3ZmavRHKkxMyhIBXiPZCdiknms0YfaPRpgZhqtmjQsQiWN8TNXgXG2pFQ
