Crafts Galore Encore - Anything Goes

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

Happy Friday! Today there will be two posts from me it is the first of the month, two of the Design teams I am on challenges start on the first of the month.

The new Challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog is sponsored by  Art by Miran  and the theme is Anything Goes. There will be a prize of three images of choice from the sponsor.

I used paper and lace from my stash to create the background, I used black in my layers as I had printed the image in black. 

Isn't this logo pretty. If you click on it you will get taken to the store

This is an LOTV stamp that came free with a magazine some time ago I find it very useful. I used a Spellbinders die to mount it. 

The image is called Bubbles Brea and is available in the Etsy store. I coloured her with Promarkers and I used a Wink of Stella pen on the bubbles but of course it doesn't show. I made a frame for the image with the double pierced rectangles by Sue Wilson.  

You can just about see the shimmer on the bubbles in this photo. 

And finally would you like to join us?

We will be holding a DT call this month, you need to have an established and active blog, be happy to be in a Facebook Group (secret!) willing to produce one piece of work a month (usually with digi images provided by our sponsors) , blog it and leave comments on entries throughout the month (not just at the end). You also get to choose a winner every other month and write a sentence or two about your choice.

If you are interested please send an email to cardsgaloreencore@yahoo.co.uk including a link to your blog and a little bit about yourself ... we are a no drama group lol!!! 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie

Crafts Galore Encore - Theme use a Digi or a stamped image somewhere on your project.

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope that you have had a good weekend. As you read this I will be on my way back from Lincolnshire so this post will be scheduled. In my next post I will tell you what we did this weekend I might even add some photos. If you know me on Facebook you probably already know.

Today sees the start of a new challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog and the theme is use a Digi image or a Stamp. This time we had a wonderful sponsor Art by Miran  who provided the team with images to use and will be supplying the prize for the winner.

The image I used is called Suzie Snowflake.

I do like my mauves and purples so that is how I coloured the image. The white mat was embossed with a snowflake embossing folder and inked faintly with Dusty Concorde Distress ink. 

The sentiment came from a set by Indigoblu. This sentiment fits really well on this snowflake tag.

She is very pretty and I coloured her with Promakers. There were snowflakes in the image so I added the snowflake die cuts around about. All the dies are by Sue Wilson. 

One last look at the card. If you click on the logo below you will be taken to the Art by Miran website. 

Have a great week. It is back to school for me but I am part time so am lucky that  I get lots of time to craft.
