Challenge #46 for Crafty Gals Corner Challenges: Use Scraps (11/18)

Challenge #46 for Crafty Gals Corner Challenges: Use Scraps (11/18)

This week the challenge is Use Scraps!  You remember....all those pieces of paper...some tiny, some large, some in-between. What do you do with them? Just about anything! 

Our sponsors this week are:

Graciellie Design

Prize: Digital Enjoy the Ride Stamp Set

The Paper Temptress

Prize: $25 Gift Certificate

STAMPlorations

Prize: $10 Gift Certificate

Lacy Sunshine

Prize: 3 Digital Images

So, here is my project for this week's challenge. I did use the STAMPlorations digital/sentiment Framed Pumpkin and leftover scrap papers from Paper Temptress I had used in a previous project for Crafty Gals Corner. 

Here you see that I have the framed pumpkin. After using my Prima Watercolors to color it, I trimmed around the black frame, then layered the pumpkin onto the Retro Silver Lustre from Paper Temptress

then layered that on top of the Eclipse Black, leaving enough space to put my Autumn Blessings sentiment from STAMPlorations. I then layered the black on top of the Vista Metallic paper. My sentiment was printed out on the Cryogen White Iridescent (LOVE this paper!).  Now, I had already used a lot of my Black Twigs & Weeds overlay, so I had to definitely work with what scraps I had of that. So, I just trimmed some of them out and framed my pumpkin with them. I was happy with the results!

I hope you enjoyed this project! I can't wait to see what you do with your scraps!

Blessings, Jeanie DT

For my project on this challenge, I chose to do another card. This time it's a Thankful card. Mine is "Give Thanks". I cut out a 4 1/2"x12" white cardstock and folded it in half, making it a 4 1/2"x6" card, finished. Then I took a 6x6" piece of printed cardstock from the BoBunny Enchanted Harvest Collection and cut it 4 1/4x 5 3/4". Of course, I had already colored my digital with my Prismacolors. I then attached the sentiment and the embellishments, put some of Renea's glitter glass on it with one of her butterflies, and it was done! Nothing hard, very easy, and yet I'm very pleased with it! The paper, pearls, and rhinestones came from ScrapbookingwithMe Boutique, and the glass glitter and butterfly came from Reneabouquets. 

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you can join us for this challenge!

I did use Glass Glitter and a couple of butterflies from Reneabouquets, some of the paper was from ScrapbookingwithMe Boutique, and of course gorgeous lace from the Lighthouse stop n' shop (Cindy). I handmade the flowers on the Pink Victorian ornament and the shoe ornament. Love making them!
Please enjoy!

I love the colors for this project! It was loads of fun! Here is a picture of my project:

You're My Cup of Tea - Front of card

Inside of card

My husband and I will be celebrating our 44th anniversary in November, so I thought this was the perfect digital for that! And of course, the color hues are perfect for a man's card! I cut out a cardstock piece 8.5"x 4.25" and folded it in half. This card is entirely made out of paper from the Paper Temptress papers. I colored in my digital using partly Prima Watercolor pencils and partly Prismacolor pencils. I use them like watercolor pencils, and they work great! 

To do the skin tone, I always start with a light flesh color, and then darken it up. I always start with the face. I then used several layers of color to obtain the color of the cup. Once I got the digital colored in, I layered a piece of the Autumn Breeze Overlay (Autumn Breeze), layered it on top of the card, then the digital. I then took a cotton ball and covered it with fingernail polish remover, then rubbed it onto the paper (inside, right). Then I placed the underside of the overlay on top of the inside card, and rubbed the overlay with a popsicle stick, then removed it and I now had a "printed" page full of leaves! The heart you see is a wood chip that I rubbed metallic rub-ons on. The ribbon you see if also from Paper Temptress, called Ivory Feather Edge. The little bits of red is Red Glossy. 

I hope you enjoy this project. And I hope to see you in the challenge! I always love seeing your creative juices flowing!

Blessings,

Jeanie
