Anything Goes Challenge!

This fortnights challenge theme is Anything Goes! Our sponsor is Rick St. Dennis and I used his that-a-way witch digital stamp to create this fun Halloween card.

The background was created by stamping the images onto purple card stock using Versa-mark sticky ink and embossing with Leaf Zing Embossing Powder. I colored the image with Prismacolor Pencils, fussy cut and adhered to the panel with foam tape. Glossy Accents were applied to the witch's hat, boots and cat!

Link up your creation by  2015 for a chance to win your choice of digital images! 

Supplies used:

• That-a-way Witch Digital Stamp by Rick St. Dennis
• Prismacolor Pencils and Colorless Blender Marker
• Inkadinkado "Pattern Play Halloween" stamp set
• Zing Lime Embossing Powder
• Recollections 65 and 110 lb card stock
• Glossy Accents
• Scotch foam tape 
• Versa-mark ink

Lots of embellishments!

It's time for another challenge at Creative Craft Cottage! This fortnight's theme is Spots and/or Stripes.  I'll admit I forgot about the theme while creating my first card using a Rick St. Dennis image.  I've been battling nausea for a week now. Taking the time to glue all these small embellishments helped distract my mind for a while during the creative process and it helped a ton!

The small gold gems are actually tiny sequin-like embellishments found in nail art kits.  I had enough of a challenge getting these into the image, let alone my own nails! Needless to say, they are staying in the craft room and not with my nail polish lol!  The quote says "The warmth and kindness of your heart...makes you more beautiful year after year! Wishing you a very Happy Birthday!" 

 The 2nd sponsor for the challenge is The Cutting Cafe.  I used their cute Pocket Shaped Card cut file to create a gift card pocket on the front. The message says "Wishing you a pocket full of birthday wishes."

Not Quite Straight at Creative Craft Cottage

Not Quite Straight is the latest challenge theme

over on Creative Craft Cottage.

The sponsor for this fun challenge is Rick St. Dennis!  Please feel free to join us by adding your creation.  This challenge runs for 2 weeks (a fortnight) and the winner receives 2 digital images of their choice from the sponsor!

I decided to use spring colors and chose pink/purple/white. I just love this sentiment by TLC Creations. It went well with the image! As you can see, I'm quite glad the theme was "Not Quite Straight" since I could not line up the purple flower background I made with the pink outline border paper...so it was a happy mistake that fit!

 

If you have any recent "oops" cards that aren't quite straight, please join us! We would love to see them!  Keep the creativity flowing! :)
