Prize ~ 1 Digital Image (non-colored)

Polkadoodles

Prize ~ 3 Digital Images

SheepSki Designs

Prize ~ 3 Digital Images

As you can see, we have some amazing sponsors! For my card, I chose the Birthday Bumblebee digital image. Here is my card:

He was so fun to color! I went with the orange and yellow on the whole card, because of the yellow and black on the bee. My embossing is the sentiment. I used several layers, along with black because I figured that would help set off the rest of the colors. :)

I hope that you will join us! It's a lot of fun and always great prizes to give away! Thanks for stopping by!

Our sponsors for this challenge are:

OddBall Art

Prize ~ $10 Gift Certificate

Prize ~ 1 digital image (non colored)

Scribbles Designs

Prize ~ $10 Gift Certificate (Images Only) 

Wow! Three chances to win! For my project, I chose Penelope 3 from Oddball Art. I love the Polka Dots/Stripes Theme! I chose to use both for my card. Here she is:

Isn't she a cutie?? After coloring her with my Spectrum Noir markers, I layered her on top of the designer papers: polka dots and stripes. Then I added a sentiment at the top as a banner. It's really a CAS card, as once it was colored, it was pretty simple to put together. But I really like it! I hope that it inspires you to join in on the challenge!!

Thank you so much for stopping by! I can't wait to see what you create!

Kitty Bee Designs

Prize ~ 1 digital image (non colored)

So here is my image for this fortnight challenge: Saucy Fairy.  And if you follow my blog, YouTube Channel, Instagram, etc....this is about as saucy as I get! Lol. But I thought she still had some "demure" to her, so I decided to make her into an "Irish Fairy". *wink wink*

I really tried to put a lot of thought to this, because, for some reason, even though I have some Irish blood in me, green is a hard color for me to do. That's why when I saw this type of a cut card in my Silhouette Library, I got excited and figured she would be perfect for this card! So to "town" I went!

I used my Spectrum Noir and Prismacolors on this saucy girl, and added glitter glue (Stickles) to her hair and wings. I cut out the LOVE using Shamrock paper from the Silhouette (SIL), added hearts and flower, along with some lace. And she was done!

I hope this inspires you to try out the challenge too! Lots of great prizes to be won! 

Many Irish blessings (and God bless you!),

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #175 - Anything Fall Goes!

Wow! It's already time for another challenge over at Crafty Gals Corner! This one is #175 and the theme is: Anything Fall Goes.

Our sponsors for this week are:

Fabrika Fantasy

Prize ~ 3 Digital Images

Pretty Graphic Design

Prize ~ 1 Image Pack

Kitty Bee Designs

Prize ~ 1 digital image

For this challenge, I used an image from Pretty Graphic Design. This was an absolute joy to make! These Fall Animals are just adorable! So so cute!! Here it is: 

I decided to go ahead and make a little Fall Wall Hanging for my project. I first used my Silhouette to print and cut out all the images I needed: The tree, the owl, the squirrel, and the pumpkins. I made the pumpkins in 3 sizes. (Also, the word "Fall" was part of my Silhouette software.)

Before putting anything together, I cut out a white cardstock and colored in the background with my Tim Holtz Ink Oxides (Bone China and Walnut Stain). I layered all my pieces on top, starting with my tree and adding the owl in the tree. The layered the 3 pumpkins on the bottom of the tree with the squirrel next to them. I used a glitter cardstock as my base for the wall hanging and added glitter glue on the scarves of the owl and the squirrel.

I love how it came out! And this was a pretty simple project to do, as all the images were pre-colored! How's that for something quick when you need something done fast??!! 

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope that this inspired you and that you will join us for the challenge!
