Crafts Galore Encore December - Anything Goes

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

December is here not long now to Christmas I hope your plans and makes are going well. I can't believe how quickly the time is going.

On the first of the month the new challenge starts today on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog the sponsor is My Besties and the theme is Anything Goes.

I used the Double Pierced Rectangle dies to create the frame for the image and the Snowflake border die to make the border. Both of which are from Creative Expression. 

The sponsor this month is Sherri Baldy her is a link to her Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/SherriBaldy

The design team were given three images to work with and they are the prize on offer this month.  Here is a link to the website  http://www.mybestiesshop.com/store/c3/ALL_Digi_Stamps_.html

It is worth checking the challenge blog to see the different ways these images have been used. 

This is the image I used it it available here  https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/210211523/instant-download-digital-digi-stamps-big?ref=shop_home_active_36. I coloured her with my Promarkers. 

The cute little gingerbread man with his bow tie were stamped and cut out with a punch. 

The holly was stamped onto water colour card and coloured with my Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens. 

We are definitley on the countdown to Christmas now. There seems to be so much to fit in before then   

I would like to enter the December Challenge at the My Besties International Challenge blog.

Happy Crafting

Crafts Galore Encore - Use a Digi or a Stamp

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope that you had a wonderful weekend and that the weather has been kind to you. My husband has now gone back to work so there is time for me to get on with some of the jobs around the house and to get some crafting done.

The first of the month sees the start of a new challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog the theme is Use a Digi image or a Stamp. We have a sponsor My Besties and there are images being offered as prizes.

I did colour the image first and then I made all the mats and layers to match the colours I had used.  I  used a couple of punches to make butterflies from the scraps of scripted paper to add to the design. 

She is very cute and I coloured her with my Promarkers. The rosette lace I had in my stash. When I go to craft fairs I sometimes buy mixed bundles of lace this lace was in one such bundle. I will be buying some more. 

The images are available from the Etsy Shop  and the Besties Online Shop. 

These are the images the design team got to use and they are the prizes as well. 

I hope that you have a good week. 

I would like to enter  the Classic Design Team Open Challenge number 5, Challenge 25 at a Bit More Time to Craft  and Challenge 323 at Craft You Passion Challenge blog, 

Happy Crafting

Crafts Galore Encore - Use a Digi image or a stamp

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope you had a a wonderful weekend and are ready for the working week ahead. I had a lovely time at the charity craft event we made eight projects and  lunch and snacks were provided. When we arrived we were given a goody bag  and this had a set of stamps in it that we used for all our projects. Then there were spot prizes and a raffle to enter I came home with four stamp sets, I was thrilled.  My husband had a nice time with his parents  and one of his brothers was there which was an added bonus. On Sunday we had a day catching up there are always so many jobs to do.

There is a new challenge starting today on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog the theme is use a digi or a stamp. We had a wonderful sponsor this time and there are prizes.

Here is my card I enjoyed colouring the image. I have had the papers in my stash for a long time it was nice to have an image to use them with. 

This is our sponsor Sherri Baldy at Besties Digi Stamps there is a Store and an Etsy Page where you can buy these beautiful images. 

The team had three images to choose from this is mine. Here is a link to the image in the store. 

Have a great week.
