Outlawz Color Challenge

Outlawz Color Challenge - Week of May 31st

Hello, everyone! It's time to bring you another challenge at the Outlawz Challenge Blog! Here is this week's Photo Inspiration chosen by Ina:

The Twist on this inspiration is to Add Layers. I chose the Heel Accessories from Bugaboo. Below is my finished project: A Handbag Card. I got this from YouTube following this tutorial (link here). I wanted to do something a little different than just a card. And with this specific digital, I thought what better project than making a handbag with it as the center of attention?? ;-)  

Here it is:

Rather than explain to you how I did it, please follow the link above, as I don't want to take credit for this idea. But I will tell you that I made my "flap" a different shape. And, if I saw it correctly, I don't believe that this tutorial had it where you can open up the card, so I thought it would be fun to let it be one that can open. The inside has the sentiment with a larger copy of the digital on the flap. I added a lot of bling, a pearl/rhinestone "button", and orange floral pearl ribbon as my layers for this project. The flap is also another layer. With the card opening, that gave it another layer. 

I really had a lot of fun with this one. (It seems I always say that, but it's so true! I love art!) I hope you join us for this week's challenge! Be sure to post it to the Outlawz Facebook page, too!

Now let me show the project I did using their digitals! I chose the dog bone #417, the woof 2 papers, the paw prints paper, and the solids 2 & 5 from the Puppy Power Pack

This was truly fun to work with, simply because every piece worked together. That made it take out the guess work! Inside, I just used leftover pieces and added a small pocket on the side for a gift card. 

I hope you come join us! As always, we love seeing your work!

Scrapoholic Candy Shop DT Project

The Scrapoholic Candy Shop Project

Hello, my fellow crafty peeps! I hope all is going well for you this fine Friday (even if it may be raining, as it is here!). I want to share with you this week's SCS project, You are my Sunshine! I had a lot of fun with her. Since she is a summer digital, I wanted to give it a good summer color to it, so I chose the yellow, orange, and blue Prismacolors. Here is my project:

This was a fairly simple card to do. I simply did my coloring on white, mounted that onto Orange cardstock from Paper Temptress, and then mounted that onto blue cardstock I had in my stash. I got some orange printed designer paper I had bought from Creative Memories a while back while I was a consultant and used that as the foundation of the card. This designer paper was 2-sided, so I cut a strip of the gold paper on the opposite side and adhered it to the left side of the card, put some orange floral pearls on top of that, and placed a Prima lace flower in the middle of those. The sentiment came with the digital (one of the perks of Amanda's digitals!), mounted them onto blue cardstock, and adhered them. 

I hope you enjoy this card! Please stop by the Scrapoholic Candy Shop! There are lots of great and adorable digitals there!

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #73!

This week the challenge is Anything Goes!

Our sponsors this week are:

Bugaboo Stamps

Prize: 7 Digital Images

Di's Digi's

Prize: $12 Gift Certificate 

This week I chose to do the Butterfly Globe from Bugaboostamps. I worked hard on this one, as I had never done one like this. I printed out the globe onto a piece of acetate, so it could look like a glass globe. The acetate piece was only placed on the globe, not the stand. Here is my project:

I colored my image, put stickles (crystal) on the butterflies and flakes, and Glossy Accents on the bubbles inside. I also lined the stand with a gold "diamond" strand. I put some more glossy on the stand and sprinkled Diamond Glass Glitter (from Reneabouquets). I lined the left side with an "off-color" ribbon and covered it with some lace to mute the color, and then edged the lace with flat-backed pearls. Pearls were also added on the bottom left and right sides. To make it more dimensional, I cut out another butterfly, colored it, put stickles on it, and adhered it to the other "look-alike" butterfly. I wasn't sure about doing it, but once I got it on then, I was happy with the result.

Please be sure to join us for this week's challenge! You could be a winner of a prize!

Outlawz Color Challenge!

There's A New Outlawz in Town...Blogtown, that is!!

And I'm here to share with you what this week's inspiration is!

Aren't these some great colors in the British flag?  Now, normally working with these colors are hard for me, but with the image I chose, I was able to make it work. This month's images are from Bugaboo Stamps.  I chose the BugLoveAngel digital. Here is my project:

This is a 6x6" card. I'm not sure why I chose that size, but I did and was able to work with it quite well. It's pretty CAS, as you can see. The bow at the top I did double up by adhering the red ribbon on top of the yellow one. 

I hope you come on over and join us in our newest Outlawz Color Challenges!
