Ellen Hutson’s Pin-sites Challenge

Hello Friends.  Ellen Hutson’s classroom has started hosting monthly challenges.  This week it’s a photo challenge based on the following pinterest photo.

For my card I used the stripe pattern from My Minds Eye “Everyday Basics” collection.  The foil heart and the rectangles are cut form My Favorite Things dies.  The “love” sentiment is Julie Ebersole’s “Brushstroke” die.   The rest of the sentiment is WPlus 9 “Thank You” set.

Open-Minded Crafting Challenge #33 – Food Related

It’s another busy Saturday at The Crafty Nurses’ Blog and today at Open-Minded Crafting Challenges we are celebrating FOOD!  Now, those of you who know me understand that next to crafting, this may be one of my most favorite subjects.  LOL.  That said, for our challenge we are asking for “food related” projects.  You have until Friday, April 10th to show us your food related entries.  Our winners are chosen randomly and we have some super sponsors offering prizes for our challenge.

Here are our sponsors:

Prize: 3 Images of Winners Choice

Prize: 3 Image Sets of Winners Choice

Prize: 3 Images of Winners Choice

Prize: 3 Images of Winners Choice

For inspiration, I used a Drawn with Character image called, “I Chews You”.  There are so many sweet food related images on their site it was hard to pick just one.  I colored the gum-ball machine with Copic Markers and used Doodlebug’s “Take Note” paper pack.

The dies are all My Favorite Things with the exception of the Sizzix key hole die the image sits on. I love these bright colors!

Come on over and enter a card to tell us what food related items inspire you!

Sketch Saturday Challenge #354

Happy Saturday!  Today’s new Sketch Saturday challenge is sponsored by The Paper Shelter who is offering a generous $10.00 gift certificate to our random winner.  Thanks Paper Shelter!  You have until Friday, April 3rd to enter your card for a chance to win.

Here’s the sketch:

For my card I chose Paper Shelter’s “Soccer Boy” and colored him with Copic Markers.  The design paper is from Simple Stories “DIY Boutique.”  The background, square, circle, and star dies are from My Favorite Things.  The sentiment and star are stamped with My Favorite Things “All Star” stamp set. I hope you like him!

I can’t wait to see what you come up with using the new Sketch Saturday Sketch!
