Last Minute Card Challenge

Hello,

Soul Scrappers is having another challenge called, Last Minute Christmas Card Challenge.  Those of you who craft know... that we all have one or some of those last minute cards to make.  I know I do.  There's always one (or two) I forget!  Sorry!  :(

Anyhow, the challenge is to create one of those last minute Christmas cards.  You can post your card in the Soul Scrappers Gallery using the tag CC57.  It's that easy!  You can see all the info here.

Here's my "Let It Snow" card:

I hope you will stop by Soul Scrappers and check out all the fun challenges each month!

Thanks for stopping by!

Tic Tac Toe Challenge at Soul Scrappers

Hello!

So glad you stopped by!

I have another challenge to tell you about at Soul Scrappers.  It's called Tic Tac Toe.  Simply choose a row and create your layout or card.  It's that easy.  Then add your creation at the Soul Scrappers Gallery using the tag TTT22, before the deadline Jan 8th.

Here's the TTT board:


This is my layout titled, "Sweet Memories."
I chose the row: Clock, White Background, Rhinestones or Gems.
This is my daughter and I a couple holidays ago.

I used a bronze mist to match some of the pp.  Tiny swirls of bling were tucked under one of the flowers.

The clock was tucked behind one of the flowers.



This awesome bling fills the space beside the photo with a flower on top.

A closer look.

Soul Scrappers Random Word Challenge

Hello!

So glad you're here!

I have a challenge to share with you at Soul Scrappers.  It runs from Dec 1st to Dec 31st, so you have lots of time to join the site and add your creation to the Soul Scrappers Gallery, using the tag RW6.

The letter for Dec is "M" and here are the lists of words you must choose from:

1. Magical
2. Mysterious
3. Mischievous
4. Musical
5. Messy
6. Misfit

All you have to do is create a layout using one of the words above.

Here's is my layout titled, "Magical."
The photo was taken this past summer.  I love the reflection of the trees on the water, which was so calm this day.

Sheer ribbon was weaved throughout the flowers.


The flowers are using a new die cut.  All the leaves were fussy cut from pp.

Flowers were layered with a gem in the center of each.

Hope you enjoyed my layout!

Soul Scrappers Sketch Challenge

Hello everyone!

Happy Saturday to you!

Today I'm sharing a sketch challenge that I'm hosting at Soul Scrappers.  Each month a different sketch is posted and prizes are offered if there are at least eight entries in the Soul Scrappers Gallery.  Who doesn't love sketches?  They get your motivation juices flowing!  And from there your creativity explodes.
At least that happens with me... sometimes!  :)

Here is the sketch from Page Maps.  I love the variety of sketches they offer.

And here is the example layout I created titled, "Good Times."
You can check out my challenge in its entirety here.
My friend and I at a concert this past summer.  What a fun time we had!

As you can see, I switched the embellies/circles from the left to the right.  Just a little different while still following the sketch.

Flower stickers provide a little more interest.


A doily was tucked behind the photo.

Various circles were layered along with flower stickers and a clock was tucked just behind the title.

More flower stickers were added above the page title.

And there you have it.  Hope you enjoyed my layout.

Don't forget to check out Soul Scrappers as well as all the challenges here.  It's a fabulous place to be!
