KCC #461 {Anything BUT a Card!}


Welcome back to another "Krafty Chicks" Thursday! This week, it is Leanne's turn to be our hostess-with-the-mostess. She has given us the following "twist" to our Anything Goes challenge:   

KCC #461 {ANYTHING BUT A CARD}

Most of you may know that my other crafty passion is with yarn and crochet hooks...my Aunty Sharon taught me when I was pregnant with our son, Calvin, back in 1996 and I have loved it ever since. I don't get as much time to do it now that I am working full time, and tend to a big yard/garden during the summer - but winter months, I love to get busy with it and create!


This pattern is called a corner-to-corner afghan and it's one of my ultimate favorites. Works up fast and it's easy!



Please be sure to check out what my other fellow Chicks have created for you using 
Leanne's "Anything but a Card" twist:


We would love if you come on over and play along with us this week - remember, it's an Anything Goes challenge with the optional use of the twist :) Cheers!

KCC #460 {Washi Tape}


Happy 'Krafty Chicks' Thursday everyone! Today, it's my turn to play your challenge hostess and I'm wanting you to dig out and dust off your stash of "WASHI TAPE!" Our challenges are always Anything Goes with the twist, so you can choose to use the twist or not - totally up to you!  

KCC #460 {WASHI TAPE}

I decided to just create my own background with alternating strips of 3 different co-ordinating washi tapes. It was fun to see it come together. 

Here's a close up of my card:


Thanks for stopping in today - be sure to hop on over to the blog to see what the rest of the Chicks have created using my "washi tape" twist. Cheers!

KCC #459 {Camp Out}


Happy 'Krafty Chicks' Thursday everyone! Today, miss Tangii is up on the blog sharing the twist to our Anything Goes challenge. 

KCC #459 {Camp Out}

I know you must be thinking "there's nothing about camping on this card" but the scene is totally part of camping out to me...I can totally vision myself pitching a tent (or parking my holiday trailer LOL) on the shore looking out to this gorgeous scenery. Can't YOU?!? Oh I would love to be sitting out on the dock with a delicious, strong cup of coffee and crocheting to my hearts content, listening to the calming sounds of nature...ahhhhhh....

I came across this video tutorial from Simply Sara Stampin'  and I even had all the stamps from Fun Stampers Journey to make the exact card! I was very inky by the time I was done but it was so worth it!

Here's a close up of my card:


Thanks for stopping in today - be sure to hop on over to the blog to see what the rest of the Chicks have created using Tangii's "camping out" twist. Cheers!

KCC #458 {Die Cuts}

Welcome back to another "Krafty Chicks" challenge. This week, it is miss Amy's turn to throw out the "twist" for this week's Anything Goes challenge! 

KC #458 {DIE CUTS}

** Remember, our challenges are always Anything Goes with the optional "twist" thrown in each week. You do not have to use the twist, but we would sure love it if you did! :)

I always love to see what I can use for dies before I do any sort of stamping. It's a very quick way to complete a card if you can use mostly dies...and I like that! While I still do enjoy stamping/coloring etc., when time is of the essence, die cuts are awesome! 


Please be sure to check out what my other fellow Chicks have created for you using Amy's challenge:
