Live your Life by a Compass

Two or More Patterned Papers is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

Our challenge will run until April 12th so make sure to upload your creation by then for your chance to win a special prize from our fabulous sponsor Beccy's Place!

I used Copics to color the image and added some sparkle to the compass face with a Wink of Stella and a black glitter Spica pen for the beaded chain.  The papers are from the 24/Seven Collection by Simple Stories.

I love this image Walk by Faith and it comes with a number of beautiful sentiments.  It is very similar to a tattoo I have, and the meaning of the compass to me is so you can "always find your way home".

This was a Snow Girl freebie came from Dearie Dolls, unfortunately I couldn't find them anymore so I'm not able to provide a link.

I printed the image on cardstock and used circle die-cuts on the image as well as on the red glitter background paper.  I need some dimension so I used my Lots of Dots embossing folder by Taylored Expressions.  Added a sentiment (from craft magazine) and some more glitter cardstock and a button to finish it off.

Hoppy Easter

A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges!

Our theme this month is Bunny Hop.  Show us your creativity by adding a bunny to your creation! 

We have moved to a JUST FOR FUN challenge and I hope you will continue to play along so you have a chance to proudly display our Winners Badge or Top 3 Badge.

I had so much fun creating this card.  I created the "Hoppy" card using my Silhouette Cameo and after assembling I used Copics to color the adorable Bunny Gnomes from the Spring Gnomes stamp set by My Favorite Things then fussy cut and applied foam dots to the back before sticking them to the card.

This funny little image is from Bugaboo, sadly no longer in business.  I've made a similar card in the past and this sentiment is one of my faves.

Cozy Christmas Fireplace

LOTS OF LAYERS is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

Our challenge will run until DATE so make sure to upload your creation by then for your chance to win a special prize from our fabulous sponsor Mirtellamente Digital Stamps!

I loved working with the Christmas Fireplace image, so much so that I created two cards. For my layers I decided to do a lot of fussy cutting (I really don't enjoy this part!) and made layers of the stockings, gifts and candles.  After coloring with Copics and all the fussy cutting, I picked out some "wall" paper, along with "flooring" for the backdrop then went to work with foam dots.  

I really love how these cards turned out even though this wasn't my first vision!
