Noah's Ark Welcome

A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges! We are a JUST FOR FUN challenge and I hope you will play along for your chance to proudly display our Winner or Top 3 Badges.

Our theme this month is "Inspired by a Book".  I think it's obvious that my book is Noah's Ark and this image is from the Better Together collection by MFT (no longer available).   

After coloring the image with Copic markers I went to work creating the background using Hero Arts Cling Zag Background Stamp with distressed oxide inks.  

I used VersaMark on the background stamp then heat set white embossing powder and went to work blending Abandoned Coral and Dried Marigold (#1) and Dried Marigold and Cracked Pistachio (#2) Distress Oxide Inks then sprayed with Gold Sheer Shimmer craft spray.





I assembled the card, framing the distressed background with a white frame made with my Cricut Joy, used pop dots on the image, added a sentiment, clouds embossed with Silver and some sequins.

Thanks so much for stopping by and make sure you hop over to Get Creative Challenges for some inspiration from our fabulous Design Team!

Bubble Hugs

Christmas [or not] Bingo Challenges has a new challenge ready to go for you!

CBC will feature a new Bingo card for each challenge and while this isn't your typical game of BINGO, you are required to use at least three items in ONE column.

We are a "just for fun" challenge however this month we have a special sponsor, All Dressed Up!  The winner of this challenge will win 

My choice was the "I" column - Stitching, Die Cuts, Gold and Stamped Image.


This image is Bubbles and I used Copic markers to color her up. It's such a delicate image so I decided to keep the coloring light.  The designer papers are from the Sugar Rush collection by BasicGrey and Ruffles & Dashes die cuts by Catherine Pooler to create the image frames.

So glad you stopped by and I look forward to seeing your creation!
