Allsorts Challenge #769 = Things That fly

 Hi Crafters,

It is Saturday once again, I can't believe how quickly the weeks are flying by. We are almost in to March! But first we have a new challenge starting at Allsorts where Liz is our host this week and would like to see your creations with...

THINGS THAT FLY

or  ANYTHING GOES

I love fairy images and this one has been on my computer for a long time and needed to be used. It comes from CraftsUprint and the colours are gorgeous. I have framed it using a Creative Expressions die called 'Festive Frames' but it can be used for any time of the year. The sentiment is a Crafters Companion Die and my scalloped border die is from Tonic Studios. Pearls and ribbon are from my stash.

Prizes from AALL and Create and Aldridge Crafts

Come and join in the fun this week for a chance to win one of these fabulous prizes, you have a week to enter. Please remember to follow the theme of 'Things That Fly' or the Anything Goes option and create a new project to link to our challenge.

Allsorts Challenge #767 - Use Hearts

 Hi Crafters,

I have created a simple sympathy Card for this weeks challenge at Allsorts using an embossing folder that I have had in my stash for a long time. I do not have the maker as the packaging has long gone I'm afraid. The flowers are a Tim Holtz Die with a Woodware Sentiment stamp.

Prizes from AALL and Create and Lavinia

I'm sure you will have lots of ideas for using Hearts in your creations this week with Valentine's Day coming up soon.

See you soon,

Lorraine

Crafts Galore Encore February Challenge #120 - Anything Goes

 Hi Crafters,

Well that's January over with, I always feel much better after I get that month under my belt each year. I think it's because it feels a little closer to Spring with the hopes of warmer, brighter weather.

So it is February 1st which means a new ANYTHING GOES challenge at Crafts Galore Encore.

We are lucky enough to be sponsored by Last Minute Manda who kindly provided images for the DT to use. Here is my card using Pipsqueak Coffee and Flowers.

I have used two sizes of Carnation Crafts Pretty Shabby Squares dies for my layers. A new (to me) Marianne Designs Brick Wall Die - CR1558 and then of course, this fabulously cute Pipsqueak image which I have coloured using Copics. The sentiment stamp is from Sentimentally Yours, a little Distress Oxide ink for the background and voila!

Last Minute Manda are offering 3 digi sets from their Selfie Store to the lucky winner so get those creative hats on and come and join in the fun with us at Crafts Galore Encore. Also check out the beautiful creations from the Design Team for inspiration this month.
