CRAFT Challenge #459 Animals

Image
Hi, guys! If it's Thursday there must be a new CRAFT Challenge! Our new theme is nice and easy - Animals. Here are some frogs having fun! Aren't they cute? The image is from ScrapNDipity . I used papers from an old Bo Bunny collection called 'Ad Lib.' The sentiment is from Altenew's Label Love stamp set. I cut the centre panel too narrowly and had to add another piece, and I covered the seam with some very old paper ribbon to hide it! There's usually some way to hide a mistake, isn't there? Our sponsors this week: ScrapNDipity and DRS Designs. Do hop along to the Challenge blog and enjoy the fab inspiration my teamies have left to inspire you! Thanks for looking and have a good weekend! (Not long now!) love Mags B x

CRAFT Challenge #423 Sketch

Image
Good morning! It's Thursday! That means two exciting things: it's nearly the weekend AND there's a new Challenge at CRAFT Challenge! This week we have a fabulous Sketch created by our lovely and talented Aunty Sue. So versatile! I made a birthday card for a bloke. The fun image is Frog on a Log from sponsor DRS Designs. I coloured him with Copics and added Glossy Accents to his eyes. I cut him out with a Die-namics Zig-zag Stitched Circle die, then distressed the edges with Mowed Lawn Distress Ink. The butterfly sticker is from stash. The papers are all from the Snippets Drawer and the ancient paper raffia ribbon is from stash as are the star stickers. The silver-embossed sentiment is from an old Hero Arts Messages set. Go and see the gorgeous creations my teamies have made using the sketch, and join in! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

Image
Good morning! Today our new CRAFT Challenge is our regular Christmas theme. This cute Heart Swag Snowman is from our sponsor DRS Designs. I used up some more old Christmas paper from my stash for the background, the silver ribbon is from Hobbycraft, and the silver-embossed sentiment is from an old Clearly Besotted stamp set. Our sponsor: DRS Designs My teamis, as usual, have made some gorgeous inspiration for you, do go and see! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

CRAFT Challenge #382 Autumn/Halloween/Thanksgiving

Image
Good morning! I hope you're all well, and looking forward to a good weekend! Thursday is CRAFT Challenge day and we have multiple themes this week: Autumn or Halloween or Thanksgiving Plenty of choice there! I went for an autumnal Shaker card, using Berry Wreath by DRS Designs. The background paper is from an ancient pad which has lost its cover! I dry embossed it before cutting the aperture for the shaker - which meant that the original embossing was squashed! However, it makes a rather nice crinkled effect, so that's ok. The wreath is coloured in autumnal shades with Copics. I die cut the MFT 'Thanks' die 3 times and glued them together to make a raised sentiment. Our sponsors this week are: DRS Designs and Doctor Digi's House of Stamps Thanks for looking, and have a great day! love Mags B x

CRAFT Challenge #371 Sketch

Image
Good morning! I hope the sun is shining for you today! Our new CRAFT Challenge this week is a sketch. Our ace sponsors this week are DRS Designs and Digital Delights I have used Shelldon the Turtle for my card, isn't he cute? I turned the sketch sideways. The papers are from the snippets drawer, I think they are both by Prima but can't give any more info. Sorry! The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted and I stamped it on a tag cut with an MFT Die-namics die. The sparkly green candy is by Papermania. I'm entering a Challenge, since all my papers and the turquoise card are snippets! I am going to re-visit Pixie's Snippets Challenge - it's a long time since I last visited The Playground, I'll stand at the back and hope that Miss doesn't notice me! My teamies have done marvellous things with this sketch, do go and see and be inspired! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #298 Christmas - Traditional Colours

Image
Hi, Guys! It's Thursday already, and that means another CRAFT Challenge and this week we'd like to see your Christmas cards in traditional colours. So put away the lilacs, pinks and turquoises and get out the red, gold and green!!! I used a lovely image, Triple Tree with Snow by one of our sponsors, DRS Designs . I coloured it very simply, using Inktense Pencels and blending the colour with a waterbrush. Then I added stickles to the snowbanks. I used a Spellbinders die to cut it out. I used papers from the 'Vintage Village' stack by First Edition for the image mat and the background, and the ribbon is from stash. We have two lovely sponsors this week: DRS Designs Sweet'N'Sassy Stamps Go and see what my creative teamies have done with images generously supplied by these two sponsors! They will inspire you to begin your Christmas cards early - think how glad you will be in December not to have the usual orgy of Christmas card making!!! Have a g...
