Crafty Gals Corner - Anything Fall Goes

Hello, crafters! Today begins a new challenge for Crafty Gals Corner Challenge Blog! And the theme for this month's challenge is ANYTHING GOES! So before we get started, here are our amazing sponsors!

Bugaboo Stamps

Prize ~ $12 Gift Certificate

Colour of Love
Prize ~ 3 Digital Images

Digital Delights

Prize ~ $5 Gift Certificate

LeAnn's World 101

Prize ~ 2 Digital Images

Such a fun theme to work with! I used a digital called Scarecrow Willie from Digital Delights. So here is what I've done:

Isn't he a fun little guy?? And not really scary to me...he looks like he wants to reach out and hug, rather than scare you. Lol.

I mounted him on several different pieces of cardstock, both designer and plaine. I also used a little pieces of paper twine to act as "straw". He was just so fun to color, too!

I hope that you will join us for this month's challenge! And have fun with it! Thank you for stopping by!

(Please come by each time to check out the challenge as we will have a different

And now for this month's challenge sponsor (one of my very faves to color with), is.....

November Sponsor

SheepSki Designs

This fortnight's challenge is an

Inspirational Photo chosen by AJ / Art Jypsy

with Caffeinated Colours and Sweets Tones to choose from.

So I went with a piece I had started coloring with the Kit and Clowder Class, using the coffee image. It was perfect for this inspirational piece! I used my Prismacolors to color it. Here it is:

Once I finally finished this piece, I just added some mounting pieces to the card and a sentiment. And she was done! I really love how it turned out, too! I hope that you can join us for this challenge!

It's A Circus!

It's a circus out there! Woot! Who doesn't love a circus? Especially the popcorn and roasted peanuts! So today is a new Project Share for you using a digital kit called Circus Passport Kit. (TaylorMadeCards4U). Here is what I made: a Circus Explosion Box.

Isn't that a cool way to display circus digital kit? I love the little carousel in the middle. What better way to make use of the explosion box? I always wanted to go to the circus as a child, but never got to do that. The closest I got was the State Fair. But I remember watching them on TV....I thought "What a life that is!" Although I know better now, that it isn't necessarily a glamorous life, it still held some intrigue for me.

I used my Silhouette Cameo 3 to make this box. There were no instructions to be found anywhere (that I could find anyway), so I had to make do on my own. Lol. Now that I know what to do, the next....if I do another one....will be much easier to understand all the pieces! Haha!

Here is the Promo Sheet for this beautifully designed digital kit:

This kit comes with 4 pages. Believe me, it is such a fun piece to work with!

I hope that you feel inspired by this project, and that you will check out the rest of the Design Team projects on the TMC4U blog! Thank you for stopping by!

Outlawz Color Challenge - October 22, 2019

Hello, fellow crafters! Today begins a new fortnight COLOR CHALLENGE over at the Outlawz Challenge Blog! And this month, we are being sponsored by the amazing The Paper Shelter

We have a great inspirational board picked out from fellow DT, Lori M for you to follow. Here it is:

So I got an image from The Paper Shelter called Monique. She is so pretty! I figured she would make a great card for the inspiration photo. Beautiful colors! And here is my card:

I used my Spectrum Noir markers to color her in, using colors from the inspiration. I added a couple of border strips to the left and some embellishments. I thought it would look cool to add some gold falling leaves to the left of her (I used my foil quill pen to do those). It didn't take long to put the card together once I knew what I wanted to do. So my colors were: orange, green, brown, with a twist of using gold foil leaves.

I hope that you will join us for this challenge! It was quite fun to do! Thanks for stopping in!

Papercraft Challenge - October - Tag You're It!

Hello, fellow crafters! Today is the mid-month reminder of our challenge over at Papercraft Business Blog! Be sure to read over the rules, as they have been slightly changed. We have an awesome prize for the winner of October's Challenge, but first let me share with you my Tag.

So I decided on this one, that I wasn't going to use an image, but use what supplies I had in my stash. Sometimes we forget the items there, so I wanted to be sure to use them. I first layered the tag with some paper, then added some lace from KPKre8tions. (Be sure to check her out...she has some amazing things!) I then added my embellishments on top of that, and then the ribbon for hanging.

Now let me share with you, the Prize: Magnolia Doohickey's

Be sure to click on the blue button to enter your project on the challenge blog! See you there!

Splashy Mix Media October Challenge!

We have a new Splashy Mix Challenge for the month of October! And it's a beautiful board! You can create any mixed media project taking inspiration from the below moodboard. We would love to see what inspired you,

hence please mention it in your post. Here is the board:

Please be sure to read the guidelines on the SMC site! Now take a look at what I have created for you this month! I hope it will inspire you!

Let me tell you a bit about my project. First off, I got the gorgeous canvas background from a website called KPKre8tions. And you see that beautiful gold mask in the top right corner? That applique is also from her shop. She makes some of the most beautiful art! And with that said, those 2 pieces were perfect for this awesome moodboard! I waited a long time to use the canvas piece, as I wanted the perfect way to create with it.

The gold, gray, and white papers (Celebrate and the cake) are from a company called Paper Temptress. Be sure to check them out too! I added flowers and lots of lace to this piece. In a couple of years, my husband and I will be married 50 years!! Yes, 50 years! I can hardly believe it myself! Maybe this can be used as a part of my decorations for a celebration? Perhaps!

I had so much fun with this moodboard. Shylaa always creates some gorgeous ones! I used all 3 elements from the board: the mask, the cake, and the rose. Plus the 3 colors I saw were gold, gray, and white.

I hope that you will join us for this month's challenge! Now be sure to check out our amazing sponsors and prizes listed below! And happy crafting!
