Getting Warmer! @ Little Red Wagon

 This week at


it's Chrissy's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Getting Warmer!" which means she would like to see those creations using warm colours - think reds, yellow, oranges etc.

This is what I did....


As you can see, I stuck with mostly warm colours.....and a little bit of white and skin tone too.  Digi is from Pernilla Nilsson and I made the sentiment in, you guessed it, Canva.

So, why not give our challenge a go this week and join us?  And, if you'd like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made.

Flora or Fauna? @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's Imke's turn to choose the challenge and she's asking, "Flora or Fauna?" which just means she would like to see those projects that have either animals or plants.  Lots of options there!

Now I'm usually more fauna than floral but I decided to go floral and this is what I did....


I've used this sunflower digi stamp a number of times....because it's awesome.  It's from A Day For Daisies.  Sentiment is from Create With TLC.

Play the Game! @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's Kate's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Play the Game!" which means she wants to see projects that have to do with games.....(and hopefully), and/or sports.

This is what I did......


Not much of a golfer myself.....mostly because I'm not that good at it.  My middlest golfs though.  I keep threatening to come with him, but he keeps telling me he won't play Best Ball so it's probably a good idea I stay home.  (:

Digi is from Tiddly Inks.  I made the sentiment in Canva.

Spring Flowers! @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's Brenda's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Spring Flowers!" and I think everyone will know what that means.

Happily, spring is now happening 'round here.  *quickly glances out the window to make sure it hasn't suddenly starting snowing since that was typed*  There are lots of tulips and daffodils in bloom so it wasn't hard to get in the flowers mood.  I tried something I've never done before and did this....


I coloured on coloured cardstock!  I really like this look, I just wish I would have chosen a different colour to colour on.  Originally, I was going to do mostly yellow on grey but switched to the purple on pink at the last minute.  It was nice to colour on textured cardstock again, something I used to do all the time (albeit on the back side of the textured paper because it's a little less textured).  Definitely going to try this technique again sometime.

Image is from Canva.  Great thing about Canva is it's really easy to move things around on the page.  And if you've ever tried to move images around in Word....well, that's just say, you might cry over all that wasted time if you try Canva.  (:

Simply Clean & Simple! @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's yours truly's turn to choose the challenge and I'm saying, "Simply Clean & Simple!" which means, you guessed it, I want to see those cas cards.

First of all, I need to call someone out.  Looking at you here, Mother Nature.  If you notice, MN, I didn't post a Christmas make last week.  It was a birthday make.  So, why then, did you think it would be okay to SNOW on and off all day yesterday with temps of 1ºC, on the SECOND DAY OF MAY?  Huh?  Not nice.

Now that that's outta the way, here's my card.....


As you can see, I've got a lot of white space on there to make it cas.  And, it's just empty space, MN, NOT SNOW.  

Stamp is from The Cat's Pajamas.  I used a precut card for this one, and it has more tooth than the cardstock I normally use for stamps/digis.  I kinda like the rough look of it, so it's working for me.

So, why not give our challenge a go this week and join us?  And, if you'd like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made.
