Lollipop Crafts Challenge #91

Hi! Today starts another challenge at Lollipop Crafts! I can't believe Halloween is in a couple of days! With that being said, our theme for the challenge is 'Halloween Treats' (make anything but a card). I decided to make a simple gift card holder...

the front...

and the inside...

This was really fun to make! Got the tutorial from here. Got the cute Halloween Dandelion stamp with a swap. 

Please check out the rest of the DT creations here and hope you can play along with us!

Have a great day! 

With Sympathy

Yay my 2nd post today! Tried to make this sympathy a little colorful to make it a bit cheerful! :) This is for a friend whose grandma just passed away. :( Used DP by My Mind's Eye Stella Rose. Sentiment by Verve and colored with Copics. Have a great Sunday!

Challenge: Freshly Made Sketches

Let it snow

Hello! Wow, it feels like I have not posted anything for fun in a long time! I've still been crafting though. I think I'm going to have more than one post today since I already miss the deadline for this challenge so I looked for an 'Anything Goes' challenge to enter.

I wanted to do the challenge here but just missed it. Had fun making another Christmas card! DP is My Mind's Eye 12 days of Christmas and sentiment is by Verve. Colored with Copics and snowflakes die by My Favorite Things. Hope everyone's having a great weekend!

Here is my card using the digi called "Mr. Bitty Halloween"...

Got the sketch from here. Made the background using an embossing folder and gingham paper. Hard to tell in the picture but I popped up the image on dimensionals. Love this image! 

You still have lots of time to join us for our challenge. (Make a birthday card.) Please check out the rest of the DT creations here. 

Have a wonderful day!

Wishing you peace, love and joy...

My blog post title is what I stamped in the inside. (AmyR stamp) I'm actually doing 2 posts today...just in case I don't have time to do the other one later. Love making Christmas cards. I realized I like images with presents because it can be used for birthday or Christmas. (Or any other occasion for that matter.) Just trying to make my stamp images more versatile. Colored with Copics and used a snowflake embossing folder for the background. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Challenge: Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge

A gift for you...

Decided to make another Christmas card using a 'never been inked' stamp by Pink Cat Studio! It's so cute that I can't believe I forgot about him! :( Used DP by My Mind's Eye (Winter Wonderland). The sentiment is hard to see in the picture but says 'A gift for you' which I cut out from the DP. Used the sketch from here. Feels like I haven't posted anything I made for fun lately...I've been crafting, just not doing any card challenges right now.  Scrambling making Christmas gifts! But of course it's fun! :) Hope you all had a great Monday and 1st of October!

Challenge: Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

Lollipop Crafts Challenge #89

Today starts another challenge at Lollipop Crafts! The theme is to make a card/project using both something old and new from your stash. Here's my card...

My 'new' item is the cute Sister Stamps image called 'BFF's'. (Thankful to have received this from my good friend from Hawaii!) And my 'old' item is the DP (Wild Rose Studio 'We love Japan') that I think I had for about 3 years. (That's old to me!) Sentiment is by There She Goes. Used the sketch from here.

Hope you can join us for this fun challenge! Please check out the rest of the DT creations here. Have a wonderful day!
