Crafty Gals Corner- Challenge # 266- Fill in the Blank: Adorable__________

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

I am sure you have noticed that we have a new look with new graphics at Crafty Gals Corner.  I love the cherry blossoms and the fresh new look.  We still are the same group of designers and crafty gals, just with a new fresh look. 

Our challenge this month is Fill in the blank: Adorable _________.

The stamp I received to color up this month is from Poladoodle entitled "Party Balloon Bunny".  I think she is adorable and why I chose her for our challenge this month.

Here is the card I created. 

My color inspiration came from the Echo Park paper pack "Happy Birthday". Once I had picked the paper, I matched the solid papers and began coloring using my Copic Markers.

 

Fur: E57, E23, E34

Ears: E23, E34, RV34, RV10

Tutu and Balloon: BV17, BV13, BV02

Flowers: R89, R85, R83

Leaves: G99, G94, YG03, G28, G24

 

I used a label die from Stampin Up to cut out the bunny for my focal point.  I added some lace from my stash also.  To finish the card, I added the sentiment sticker from the paper pack and some peals from Pink and Main,  

She is ready for her next party and she is adorable.

 

Now it is your turn. Leave me a comment and then go and share an "adorable" project with us over at Crafty Gals Corner. 

 

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #265: Fill in the blank- Fairy Tale_________

Hello Crafty Friends,

March is here.  Where has the time gone.  I cant believe it is March already and time has changed here in California.  I love the longer days because it makes me more productive with more light, later.  

This month at Crafty Gals Corner, the challenge is to Fill in the blank- Fairy Tale ____________.  Some ideas would be fairies, princesses, mermaids, leprechauns, etc.  You get to pick and share your creation with us.

This month, one of our sponsors is Sheepski Designs.  I chose to use this cute fairy, Breena and Bear (Image #55).

Here is  the card I created with this fun image.

 I had fun creating this card.  

The first think I did was pick out the paper I wanted to use.  The paper is from some scraps I had from Echo Park.  I then picked out my Copic Markers to match.

I colored the image with:

Skin: E11, E21, E51

Hair: Y21, YR24

Wings: V17, V15, V12, V20

Bear: E25, E34

I finished the card, by adding a sentiment that I foiled from Taylored Expressions, added a bow to the bottom and some pearls from Pink and Main,

Now it is your turn.  Leave me a comment and then create something with a Fairy Tale theme and share it with us at Crafty Gals Corner.

We have a new challenge at Crafty Gals Corner this month called "Fill in the blank; Pink______".  I received this adorable image from LeAnn's World 101 entitled "Abigail" to color.

 I knew exactly what color I was going to use to make her beautiful.  Of course- Pink!

Here is the card I created:

 

I colored the image with my Copic Markers.

Hair: E29, E25, E21

Dress: RV34, RV32, RV11

Eyes: B23, B21

Petticoat: C2 C0

The card base was created with some pink cardstock, pattern paper from Doodlebug's Gingerbread Kisses line and some die cuts from Fun Stampers Journey.

The sentiment is from Scrapbook.com's enchanted forest collection and stamped with black ink.

To finish the card I added a few pink pearls from Pink and Main.

Now it is your turn.  Share a pink project with us over at Crafty Gals Corner.  Please leave me a comment before you go.

 

Crafty Gals Corner- Challenge 263- Fill in the Blank: Snow______.

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

Happy New Year!  I love all the possibilities the new year brings.  New goals, new things to try, new things to discover and new challenges to participate in.  A fresh start and a chance to become better than you were last year.

Over at Crafty Gals Corner we have a new challenge because it is a new month.  The challenge is new for me, but one that I find was easy to meet.

When I saw the challenge I knew exactly what I would fill the blank with.  Snow MAN!  I love snowmen and so I was excited to use this adorable image from RAM stamps, our sponsor this month.

Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog- Anything Goes

 

Hello Crafty Friends

We are one month closer to Christmas and one more card done.  I love Christmas, so Christmas cards are so much fun to create, I created a simple card this month.

 The card panel is a foil-it from Taylored Expressions with a matching stencil.  I created the image with Gold foil and then stenciled with Spearmint, Cherry Pop and Cilantro.

To finish the card I added some small gold pearls to the little dots in the image.

Clean and simple, yet striking.
