Have a very mice BIRTHDAY

Lots of Layers is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

We have a fabulous sponsor so make sure to upload your creation for your chance to win a special prize from a NEW sponsor, Streamside Studios!  If you haven't checked the store out yet, make sure you do - so many adorable and fun images to choose from!

The images and sentiment are from the Mice at Play collection. I used the Silhouette Cameo to print and cut the images although  I was having issues with the blade not cutting thru the paper on the mice so I had to do a bit of fussy cutting (which I really don't like doing).  I used distress inks (Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade) on the block of cheese and Copic markers on the mice.  Added a few touches and lots of foam tape to create the layers.

Make sure you check out the amazingly creative creations from our Design Team then it's your turn to start creating!




Challenges:

Glittery Joy

Glitter and Sparkle is the theme for our January challenge at Christmas Craft Creations!   

Our challenge will run until February 8th so make sure to upload your creation by then for your chance to win a special prize.



I die cut and added layers (3) to the letters using white cardstock with the top layer cut in designer paper.  I used the mini wreath die cut by Lawn Fawn to cut two layers using green glitter.  I did this to make the wreath look fuller and finished it off with one layer of white cardstock.  The berries were also die cut using red glitter paper.   

Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to jump over to CCC and check out the fabulous creations by our Design Team.

Please remember to add our challenge badge (above) to your post for your chance to win!

Treat Yourself

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

We 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 where you will have the chance to proudly display our Winner or Top Pick Badge!

My choice is the "O" column - Layers, Stitching, Twine and Rectangle.


While roaming through Pinterest looking for a design that "spoke" to me, I came across John, Gentleman Crafter's card using Lawn Fawn's Treat Yourself stamp set.  As it so happens, a co-worker is celebrating her birthday this weekend and she LOVES ice cream so my version of John's card was created, I hope you like it!

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



Snow Much Fun at Get Creative Challenges

Happy New Year! A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges!  Our theme this month is Snow much Fun. 

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.


It's pretty hard to see the snow falling, but it's there!  I ran out to grab some texture paste and ended up grabbing Sparkle paste, not quite the effect I was looking for but it works!  The lamp post was created using the Cricut Joy,

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