TCC Sept Progressive Challenge - Week 3

It's week 3 in for the TCC Progressive Challenge. This week it's Happy Birthday! + pink/peach and green/teal. I used a template from WendyBird Designs to create this card featuring the Cynthia Digital Papers and Baking Cynthia from The Stamping Boutique. I'm really getting into these templates for creating cards with digi papers.

Happy Crafting!

Black and Orange at Make It Colourful

This week at Make It Colourful we're sponsored by Make It Crafty. The challenge this week is black and orange. Remember, you need to upload your challenge entry to the new gallery.
Zoe has some GREAT new Halloween images available in the store. They inspired me to make a mini Halloween album. I found some Halloween poems on the web and I thought I would decorate a page and include a poem to make a spooky book for Peanut. Here's the first page featuring Mini Headless Horseman and a poem by Jack Petrusky.
Here's a close-up of the Mini Headless Horseman.
I'd like to enter this project in the following challenges:
1. The Crafty Pad #138 - goodbye summer
2. Craft Your Passion #75 - "f" words - fall, fun, fright : )
3. Cute Card Thursday #182 - anything goes
4. Digital Tuesday #128 - celebrate the season - I'm celebrating Halloween.

Happy Crafting!

Boho Anya Journal Page

Did I tell you that I won the Farm Fashionista contest at The Greeting Farm? I'm so excited. I won the September release and they came in the mail the other day. I haven't had a chance to play until today.

This weeks He{art} Journal at TGF is to use one word as a focal point. I found this bingo card line (Tim Holtz) in my stash and thought "Free" would be a fun word. It went perfectly with Boho Anya. I stamped with brown ink and then used watercolors.

Happy Crafting!

Tickled Pink....err, make that green

So, Tickled Pink is having a GDT call. Since, I love Tickled Pink Stamps I had to give it a try. I don't know how this card ended up so green, though : ) I used 60s Ivy (do you wonder what she's thinking too?) and colored her with Prisma pencils. I added much Make It Crafty Chipboard - Mini Dragonflies and Swirly Corners. I added a little glitter to the flat dragonflies.
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
1. Tickled Pink Stamps #36 - use chipboard
3. Whimsy Stamps #5 - green

Happy Crafting!

Not Much Crafting this Weekend

I didn't have much crafty time this weekend. I was busy and my parents came in to town early than expected. I did manage to play with this "hybrid" card using digital scrapbook papers (Flamingo Beach by geniaBeana) and a template from Scrap Matters. I layered the papers in PSE and added Bobo Petal Sprite from Make It Crafty. I colored Bobo with Prisma pencils and gamsol.

I used the same template to decorate the inside. This time I added Jojo Petal Sprite and a little heart shape for a space for a message. I made Jojo nice and big and colored her again with Prisma pencils and gamsol, which I'm really loving!
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
1. Digital Tuesday #127 - fairy wishes
2. Truly Scrumptious #65 - decorate the inside
3. C.R.A.F.T. #119 - children
4. Pixie Dust #91 - Is is a Boy? or Is it a Girl?
5. Paper Sundaes #86 - Finishing Touches

Digi Day Challenges at The Crafter's Cafe

We had a great time last night at the Digi Day festivities at The Crafter's Cafe. We have three challenges and you have until Sept. 17th to enter! If you enter 2 or more challenges, you're eligible for a special drawing for an unmounted rubber stamp from Fresh Brewed Designs!!!

The first challenge is to create a celebration card with The Stamping Boutique sponsoring the challenge. I used Umbrella Love Birds by The Stamping Boutique and my Rustic Romance digi papers to create this wedding card. I printed the image on Make It Colour paper and colored it with Copics.

The next challenge is black and tan with a splash of you (color of your choice) sponsored by JLJ Designs. For my card, I used the same Rustic Romance digi papers and used red as my color of choice. I paired the papers with Poppies from The Stamping Boutique.

Finally, we have a sketch challenge sponsored by Stampin' Up with Brenda. I used the sketch to create another page for my circle journal, in the hopes of getting it done before I have to mail it on. I used Picnic Basket from The Stamping Boutique for this page in my recipe journal.

Happy Crafting!
