Designer paper challenge

Happy Saturday!

A quick post today as I am off to work, as you are reading this.

A new challenge over on the

Hiding In My Craft Room blog.

HIMCR #267 - Designer Paper X3

And the sponsor:

DCWV!

The giveaway is $100 products from DCWV!

woohoo!

Isn't it ironic, for me anyways, 

that I recently did a huge overhaul in

my craft room, and donated so many

of my old craft suplies?

One being DCWV papers.

oye.

But oh well.

I used Jillibean Soup papers.

Loving that fox!!

lol.

That is it for me for now.

Told you it would be a short post!

Until next time, friends.

Be safe. get crafty!

Let's get dolled up

Happy Day to you all....

Thanks for stopping by.

A new challenge is starting over on

the Hiding In My Craft Room blog today.

HIMCR #266 - Super Scraps Saturday!

And the sponsor is:

MHK Designs!

The giveaway is 3 products from mhk designs!

We, as the design team, were given

the opportunity to choose our

images for this challenge.

I finally decided to choose 

this set, called Beautiful Bottles.

It is a beautiful set..

and I have always been intrigued with 

perfume bottles, especially the 

vintage ones.

The styles, the colors.

I am not one for perfume, 

but I do like how they are presented

in their glass bottles.

Here is what I created:

I used my Prismacolored pencils...

I really wanted to keep the vintage look, 

and as I really look at it now, 

I should have used different papers

for the background..

The papers are from Glitz Designs...

My picture is not the greatest...ugh..

I used a bit of Distress Paint, white picket fence, 

on the background to mute the colors a bit.

There you have it, folks.

Be sure to link up your projects

for a chance to win some 

beautiful images...they are

gorgeous!!

Challenge ends next Saturday 

at 2AM CST! So get yours entered today!

How was your week?

Mine was a whirlwind of activity--

working, trying to get

everything ready for Little Miss'

return to school.

She starts this coming Wednesday.

Grade 1---wow---goes fast.

My other son started his second year of Cegep

this past week, too. Again, goes so fast.

Anyhow, on to what today is.

A new challenge!!

HIMCR #264 - Any Holiday!

And the sponsor??

The sponsor is Hiding in My Craft Room!

The giveaway is TBA.

So, with the challenge in mind, 

I set out to created a card

for an upcoming holiday that I always seem

to run out of cards for--Christmas.

I used a grid design, the squares

were cut down to 1.5 inches. I used

some of my scraps from an AC Christmas collection.

I ran one through my my Cuttlebug with

a snowflake embossing folder.

The sentiment stamp, from Inkadinkadoo,  is stamped with

Ranger Archival black ink.

Very simple design, but I personally love it. :)

That is it for me for now.

Until next time, mes amies!

Be safe. Get Crafty.

The giveaway is 

3 Sweet 'n Sassy Digital Stamps!

The Design Team were given

some images to use for this week's post.

(I love chocolate, so this one was 

a no-brainer for me!)

I used my Tombow markers (still getting used to them)

and the sentiment is from

CTMH, stamp of the month.

The papers are from My Mind's Eye.

Very simple, yet effective, I think.

That is it for me for now.
