KCC #844 - ATG

Happy 'Krafty Chicks' Thursday everyone! 

It's our Anything Goes challenge as there is an extra Thursday this month :) Our hostess is me and this one is always exciting as we get to see SO many different creations (not all necessarily cards) and the gallery is usually chalk-full of amazing creations! For this ATG, I chose the optional theme of "coffee" - I know, you're super surprised lol.

Birthday Wishes - A Cut Above

 

Happy Monday! I am back with another post for the "A Cut Above" Creative Team! 

If you aren’t familiar with A Cut Above, we share monthly challenges that are all about die-cutting. The challenges are always anything goes - with the condition of at least one die cut used (defined by using a die cut machine, manual or electronic, not a purchased pre-fabricated die cut).

Since World Cardmaking Day is this past Saturday, October 3rd - we are offering up 2 gift cards - details on the main challenge post :)

I had some scraps of designer paper and gold cardstock in my stash so I decided to do a bit of heat embossing to add some shine to match the gold in the DSP. The Birthday Wishes stamp and die set is from PinkFresh Studio and the leaves die is from an older die set from Craftin' Desert Diva's. I really love the bold font. 

Here's a close up of my card:

That's my card for this month's challenge - thanks for stopping in. I do hope you will join us! We would love to have you! Cheers!

Pearly Sparkles Challenge #123 {Trick or Treat}

Welcome back! It's time for another monthly challenge at Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog! Our challenges are always posted the 1st of the month and you can use whatever crafty supplies you have. It's such an awesome time for us to use up our stash(es) that have been tucked away for a while ;) 

PSC #123 - Trick or Treat  

This challenge can be Halloween themed, or just anything that is a "treat" for you - a favorite product you like to use to get creative, a treat as in a sweet treat, whatever you desire. I don't really make Halloween cards, so I went with my favorite season's colors. Fall is such an amazing time for color. The rich colors of red/rust, orange, yellow, green and browns are all so beautiful this time of year! 

This is a card from a Fall kit from Simply Cards. Here's a close up of my card:

"Hello" - A Cut Above Sept Challenge

 

Happy Monday! I am back with another post for the "A Cut Above" Creative Team! 

If you aren’t familiar with A Cut Above, we share monthly challenges that are all about die-cutting. The challenges are always anything goes - with the condition of at least one die cut used (defined by using a die cut machine, manual or electronic, not a purchased pre-fabricated die cut).

For this month's card, I used some 3D pop out images that you can layer and I love how it turned out. I die cut my white panel and "hello" and then layered my flowers and then added some glittery gems. So pretty!
