Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #200

 Hello, fellow crafters! And welcome to my blog! We have a new challenge going on now over at Crafty Gals Corner Challenges! With this one (#200), our theme is Halloween Colors! Now, most of probably know that I don't celebrate Halloween, but I do love the colors! But first, check out our amazing sponsors for this challenge! (listed in alphabetical order)

Digital Delights

Prize ~ $5 Gift Certificate

Dr. Digi's

Prize ~ 2 Digital Images

Rick St. Dennis

Twinkle Lane Desi

 & Two Coordinating Digital Paper Sets

Now let me share with you my card:

This image is called Paris en Plume by Rick St. Dennis. I love doing realistic images, and coloring this lady in was so much fun! I cut her out using my Cameo 3. After I colored her, I mounted her on some design papers, and then mounted those onto a black with a white card foundation. I then added my embellishments. I really love using red in my cards, so putting red onto her fur piece, was a no brainer for me! Lol!

I hope that this will inspire you to join us for this month's challenge! And thank you so much for stopping by!

Many blessings,

Jeanie Ellis - Scrapbookingmamaw

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #170 - Christmas in July

Hello, fellow crafters! And those who absolutely love making Christmas cards and crafts! Today I want to share with you my card for the Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #170...but first

Our sponsors this week are:

Scrap N Dipity

Prize ~ 3 Digital Images

Rick St. Dennis

Prize ~ 2 Digital images

Bugaboo Stamps

Prize ~$12 Gift Certificate

I had the joy of using an image from Bugaboo Stamps called Christmas Girl Presents. I love this image! She's all ready for Christmas! (I usually am last minute gift finding!!) Here she is:

To me, Christmas means....besides the most important meaning of the birth of Jesus Christ...lots of sparkle and glimmer! And believe me, she's got it! I used my color markers on her, plus a lot of stickles! The Merry Christmas sentiment is done with Deco Foil (a new found "love" of mine!).

I hope that you can join us! We would love to see what you create!

Creative Bug

Prize ~ 5 Digital images

Rick St. Dennis

Prize ~ 2 Digital images

There are some awesome prizes to be given away for this challenge! Be sure to check them out and do join us for this challenge! Now for my card:

Spring Fairy - Digi Stamps 4 Joy

For this card, I used my Prismacolors. I have been trying to use my color markers more often, so I can practice using them. But for this card, I felt the colored pencils were more of what I needed. :)

I added pearls to the left side and ribbon on the right side. As you can see, I used plenty of buttons! Both the flowers and the leaves are actually buttons! Aren't they cute?? And for the life of me, I can't remember where I got them! But they were so perfect for this card!

Again, be sure to check out the challenge! I do hope you'll join us! And thanks for stopping by!!

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #156

Hello, crafters! Today begins our 1st Challenge of the New Year, 2018 over at Crafty Gals Corner! I can't believe it's here already! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that you have a blessed New Year! With that said, a little announcement: We are now having one team of Designers, rather than two, and running 2 WEEK CHALLENGES! We hope you'll play along with us for those!

For this challenge, we have 3 amazing sponsors! They are:

Bugaboo Stamps

Prize: 7 Digital Images


Rick St. Dennis 

Prize: 2 Digital Images

The Paper Nest Dolls

Prize: $20 gift Certificate

Now let's get crafty! For my card, I used the Beautiful Blocks - Faith from Bugaboo Stamps.

I simply LOVE this image! One of my faves! I colored in my image with markers first, then went over with Prismacolor Pencils. I used a new square die cut to cut out my image, placed it on designer mounting paper and then onto the black base foundation. I added some black gemstones, flowers, and lace for embellishments. 

If you haven't checked out Crafty Gals Corner Challenges for winners from last week/blogiversary, be sure to do so! You might be on there!

Rick St. Dennis 

Prize: 2 Digital Images

Lemon Shortbread

Prize: 3 Digital Images

For my card, I chose the Christmas Poinsettia by Lemon Shortbread. She is so cute! I have to admit, with my eyes having some issues right now, I had some trouble with the coloring. They're on the mend, but I wish it would hurry up! Drives me crazy! Lol! Anyway, here is my card:

Front with Window View

I used a Sizzix die to cut out the window and my Silhouette to cut out my image and the sentiments. Of course, I used my Prismacolors on her.
