Bling It!

Image
It's challenge day at Lollipop Crafts. Sorry for the late post but I have a sick little boy.  :(  Our sponsor for this week's challenge is Digi's with Attitude! Oh they have such cute stuff! The theme Kris picked this week is to Bling it! You've got it and we want to see it. Anything that sparkles and shines, rhinestones, glitter, stickles, whatever! Any project will do, you don't have to just create a card, you can do an ATC, a 3D project, altered art ...it's limitless Here's my card for this week's challenge.  I have been working on some circle journals so I decided to use the scrap paper I had left over to create my challenges this week.  It was fun to see what I could come up with. The paper is an old Prima line that i have had forever.  I added some rhinestones and stickles from my stash to bling her up.  Colored of course with my copics! I've entered into the following challenges: Make it Monday: Anything goes Stamps R Us: Going...

A Fairy Hello

Hello! I hope that you moms out there had a lovely Mother's Day yesterday.  There is nothing I am more proud of than being a mom to my little Riley.  I can't believe he'll be 2 in July!  Time does fly. Today is a new challenge on the Lollipop Crafts blog. We are being sponsored by Soft Pencil this week and here is the link to their site and you can check out all the great digital images & all that Elizabeth has to offer.  Our challenge this week is a fancy folds one...so we'd like to see creations with more than one fold on them.  Here is mine for this week. The image is from SoftPencil's Tinytwinies which the DT got to play with.  So cute. This is the Charming Flowers image. How adorable is this!  I colored her using my Copics. I used some Sarah Hurley digital papers for this card. She has some great stuff so make sure you check the link! The main butterfly was cut using a scrap piece from the card and then the other accent butterflies ...

Romantic

Romance..everyone loves it...So that is what I decided to do my card on this week for the Crazy Challenge. Our theme is actually ANYTHING GOES, (my favorite) so you can put together whatever you like! The sponsor this week is Digital Delights by Louby Lou Here is my card for this challenge I used the Bride and Groom image from Digital Delights, which I colored with copics and added a bit of stickles to her dress and veil.  The DP was just some pieces from my stash.  I added a seed bead flower that was sent to me in a swap as well as some felt hearts and a little metal tag.  The last bit was some silver cord into a bow behind the flower.  The actual sketch for this card came from the Scrapbook and Cards Today Cardmaps book. I hope you'll join our challenge this week and I look forward to seeing what you create! I've entered this card into the following challenges: Card Cupids : flowers Dream Valley: flowers Raise the Bar: flower power Stampin' Sist...

Wow..only a few days left until Easter and if you can believe it, we still have snow here in Calgary.  **sigh** Seven months of winter is just too long. :(  We have a sketch challenge for you over at Lollipop Crafts for this week's challenge and our sponsor is Robyn's Fetish!  Make sure you check out all the deets here. This is my card this week and I really love how it turned out.  I colored my image with copics of course and then chalked it after cutting it out with my nestiblities.  The DP is just from my stash andso is the ribbon.  I made a little border with a new punch I got and the little bunny stickers is from the $$ store. The stamp set is from My Craft Lounge which I picked up recently.  I really like how this card turned out!
