ATSM #323: Holiday

Hello again, friends! Welcome to 2019. Happy New Year to all. I don't know about you, but I am glad to see the back of 2018.  It was a difficult year for me I hardly did any crafting. But, I feel more optimistic about 2019 and want to start the year as I mean to go on... with LOVE, surrounded by LOVE, sharing LOVE.

And it so happens that the first challenge for 2019 over at Addicted To Stamps and More is my favourite - Holiday. I used Lawn Fawn's Love Letters set to make a card for Valentine's day.

Here's a closer look at the adorable little chick holding up his iPhone. Text messaging seems to be how everyone communicates these days! So, this is what shouting out "I LOVE YOU" from the hilltop looks like in the 21st century!

Challenges:
Unicorn Challenge #39: Things With Wings
Crafting From The heart #234: AG
Creative Moments #160: AG

So now it's your turn to link up your project for the Holiday Challenge. It can be any holiday - Valentine's Day, Easter, Thanksgiving... even Christmas!

Thanks for stopping by and have fun with this challenge. And I wish you all a productive, peaceful 2019 where all your dreams and hopes come true!

Much love and Beijinhos!

ATSM #321: Anything Goes

Hello again and welcome to another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More. This week the theme is an easy one - Anything Goes. Absolutely no excuse not to play along!

I'm having some trouble getting into the festive spirit. This has been an exceptionally challenging year me. I haven't crafted nearly as much as I have in previous years. These simple tags sort of sums up the extent of my Christmas crafting this year.

Now it's your turn to link up your project for the Anything Goes challenge. You can make anything you like. I look forward to seeing your projects.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have fun with this challenge.

Beijinhos!

ATSM #319: Clean & Simple

Hello again, friends! It's time for another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More.  For this challenge, you can create anything you like - card, tag, bookmark etc - as long as it is CAS.
If the concept of CAS eludes you (as it does for me!), here's a checklist to help you:

Here's my offering: a simple card using You Have My Heart stamps by MFT. I'm keeping it simple by adding just a suggestion of blue sky and clouds. You can barely see it in the picture!

Now for the the close-up. I stamped the images with VersaFine Jet Black on to Canson water colour paper and coloured with Gansai Tambi. For the heart, I coloured it in with Wink of Stella Gold... not enough shine, so I slapped on some Diamond Stickles... still lacking oomph, so I dropped a dollop of Glossy Accents. There! Now we're a done!

Now it's your turn to link up your project for the Clean & Simple challenge. Thank you so much for stopping by and have an amazing day.

Beijinhos!

ATSM #317: Make Your Mark

Hello again, friends! Time for another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More. This week we are playing Make Your Mark. For this challenge, you can create anything you like as long as you use something to make a mark. Feel free to use pencils, pens, markers, chalks, crayons, paints, stains, inks ... whatever takes your fancy.

Here's my offering for this challenge. I used a lovely floral set called La Vie En Rose by Power Poppy and coloured it with Faber Castell Polychromos. I inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and finished the card with a bow tied with Orchid Lawn Trimming.

Here's a closer look at the beautiful image. I added some Stardust Stickles and Lilac Liquid Pearls for shine and texture.

Now it's your turn to link up your project for the Make Your Mark challenge. There are so many colouring media to choose from. I look forward to seeing your projects.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have fun with this challenge.

Beijinhos!

Tuesday Throwdown #413: Anything Goes

Good morning, friends! Time for another new challenge over at Tuesday Throwdown. Our sponsor for this challenge is our very own Kim Sherrod.

The theme for our challenge this week is Anything Goes. I'm showcasing a word art image by Dee's Bugaboo's Boutique - Ruby Tuesday Scripture Digi. We celebrated Harvest Thanksgiving at our church last Sunday and as a special treat, I created a on a Sermon Takeaway our parishioners, using the word art. 

I think the simple design means the focus is on the scripture verse which, I think is perfect not only for the harvest season but also for every day of the year.

Now it's your turn to create a project based on this week's theme: "Anything Goes". For ideas and inspiration, take a peek at what the rest of the DT members have made. Remember to link up your project at the Tuesday Throwdown Challenge Blog by 3pm Pacific / 11pm UK on Monday, October 15th. And the most important requirement: Have Fun!

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a beautiful day!

Beijinhos!
