Chocolatey Birthday Wishes

It’s time for a new challenge over at the FarmQuest Grocery Game Challenge!

This fun and creative challenge blog is all about using grocery-themed items in your projects — think produce, pantry staples, baked goods, or anything you’d find at your local market!

The theme for our current challenge is — as always — Anything Food Goes! That means you have the freedom to create with any food-inspired images, elements, or designs your crafty heart desires. 

For my project, I created a Chocolate Bar Birthday Card.


I put this card together using brown cardstock and distressed ink for some depth.  Wrapped the bottom in tinfoil and added a wrapper and sentiment.  Easy peasy!

Head over to the FarmQuest Grocery Game Challenge blog to see all the delicious inspiration from our Design Team, and don’t forget to link up your own food-themed creation. We can’t wait to see what you cook up!

Happy crafting!

2 or More Patterned Papers Challenge at Creative Knockouts

We're back with a brand-new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

This time, we want you to use two or more patterned papers so grab your crafty supplies and join the fun!

Our amazing sponsor for this challenge is All Dressed Up, and they're offering a fantastic prize - so don't miss your chance to play along!


This sweet image is Wellie Boots Girl.  

I used Copic markers to color the image, matching the two designer papers I chose. Once I had the card layout complete, I used the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Mix & Match Butterfly stamp set.  

After fussy cutting the image (I hate fussy cutting, lol) I added it to the card and applied two clear dots and called it a day!

Be sure you check out the amazing and inspiring creations from our talented Design Teamthen share your masterpiece with us!

Happy Crafting!

Santa outside my window

FarmQuest Country Christmas Challenge has a brand-new challenge for you to join! 

This challenge blog is all about celebrating the cozy, rustic charm of country life during the holidays — think barns, wildlife, snow-covered fields, and all things outdoorsy and festive! 

Each challenge is Anything Goes, as long as it captures that country Christmas feel.

We are a just-for-fun challenge, but you could earn our Grand Champion Winner Badge (with a Guest DT invite) or proudly display our Wintery Top 3 Badge on your blog or socials.

My project features a wintery Christmas scene made with die-cuts.


I started with an embossed background then cut the red window frame and added foam tape to the back.  I created the Santa sled scene with another die cut and black cardstock.  After putting it all together, I added a sprig of greenery and a silver bow. 

I can’t wait see what you create — and don’t forget to check out the blog for beautiful inspiration from the rest of the Design Team!

Happy crafting!
