Crafty Gals Corner- Challenge #241 Make ir Green

 

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today we have a new challenge at Crafty Gals Corner.  We are in the midst of March, so what better way to celebrate than to celebrate with some Green.  The challenge this month is "Make it Green".

I got to play with this fun Leprechaun from The Paper Shelter.

Here is the card I created:

 

I haven't made too many rocker cards and since the image was so large, I thought it would be fun to place him on a rocker card.

I colored the image with my Copic Markers:

Hair: YR09, YR04, E09 

Skin: E21, E00, E000, R20

Outfit: YG67, YG17, YG25, G28

Love to Craft Challenge Blog

Hello Crafty Friends,

If you love to craft then this is the blog challenge for you.  Anything goes is the theme every month and the best part of the challenge is to see what everyone comes up with.

This month, I created a fun card that could be easily used as a Valentine's card as well.

I used a mustard colored cardstock to create the background and then cute from the same colored cardstock to cut out the hexagon background die.

I then stamped with black ink on white cardstock, the bees from Honey Bee stamps and detail cut them out and colored with markers.

I stamped the one set of wings for one bee on vellum and detail cut them out and added them.

The sentiment was die cut with a die from Photoplay.

To finish the card I added some Wink of Stella on the wings of the "white" wing bee.

Mix it Up Challenge Blog

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

We have a new challenge at Mix it Up! The challenge is anything goes with a Distress Inks as the mix up.

I do not have distress inks, so I used distress oxides.

 To make the background, I blended barn door, mustard seed, and ripe persimmon distress oxides. 

The butterflies are from Taylored Expressions and were die cut from black cardstock and foiled buttrflies images on clear acetate. 

I stamped the sentiment from Taylor Expressions and folied it with black foil.

To finish the card, I added some tiny rhinestones to the card.

Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog

 Hello Crafty Friends,

Working on cards all year long for Christmas is the best way to work to a goal.  This month I am sharing a shaped card that is always fun to create.

The base of the card and the shape is from a die from KS Crafts.  I cut it from a dark piece of green cardstock and matted the next size down from pattern paper from Echo Park.

From that same KS Crafts die, I cut the holly leaves from the same green paper and then cut the top of stocking from white glitter cardstock.

I then stamped the sentiment with green ink on white cardstock and used my fancy corner rounder to cut the corners.  

To finish the card, I added a white layer inside of the card and red rhinestones to the holly leaves.

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #239 Winter Fun

 

 Hello Crafty Friends,

I hope you are having a wonderful new year, full of goals and crafty projects. We have a new challenge over at Crafty Gals Corner, starting today. The challenge is "Winter Fun".

I played with the image from Leann's World named "Erica" this month.

 

When I was a little girl, I was mesmerized by the ice skaters and had a dream of once being an ice skater.  I got on the ice once and could not stand up.  "Erica" on the other hand I think is a beautiful ice skater. Here is the card I created with her.

The background of the card was made using "Build a Scene- Snow Drift" die set from Taylored Expressions and different shades of blue cardstock.

I then added some "Fresh Snow" medium also from Taylored Expressions to the top of the white layer of cardstock.

To finish the background, I added some Jolene's snowflake stickers, some Sparkle silk and the sentiment from Lawn Fawn stamped in Black ink.

Erica was colored with Copics:

Skin: E21, E00, E000

Hair: E27, E33, E31

Dress: B05, B01, B000
