With colder days, there always comes the dreaded cold & flu season, so it's bound to happen that you will need a Get Well card. Join us at Crafty Creations this challenge, so you can create one to have on hand for when you need it.

This creation features a cute owl that is down on her luck. Or rather, she was having too much fun - Ha!

The owl was generously provided by our sponsor, Freshly Brewed Designs, who will being giving one lucky crafter 3 digital images of their choice.

{PIN}spirational Challenge #26: Photo - Maple Tree In Autumn

Welcome, Autumn!

We are celebrating this beautiful season with a gorgeous tree for inspiration at {PIN}spirational Challenges.

Our sponsor is the wonderful Stitchy Bear Stamps. While I haven't used one of their digis in this creation, I have in the past (click here) & will definitely be doing so in the future.

Are you inspired? If so, please share your creation with us. I can't wait to see it!
 This creation is all about using what I have.
The only item that is "new" is the grosgrain ribbon, which is my new obsession!

The polka dot chipboard flower (right side) is at least 3 years old! Talk about hoarding :)

Have you been using up your stash lately? What is the oldest item you have in your supplies?

Three Clouds




Happy Wednesday, lovely people!

The clouds were cut by hand and freestyle. I didn't use a pattern, so each cloud is unique - just like the real deal!

I also embossed the patterned paper with swirls to add a little extra texture.

Have you made your own embellishment lately? If so, what was it? Do you enjoy making your own or do you leave it to others?

Happy Birthday




Here is another FREE fan art digital stamp from MayzyArt. Do you recognize her?

Well, if you guessed She-Ra, you are oh, so right! If you had no idea or haven't even heard of She-Ra, well, I just don't know what to say - Ha!

Lady Anne's Paper Crafts: Friday Sentiments - Encouraging & Corners


This is my first creation as design team member for Lady Anne's Paper Crafts, a Ning group that offers challenges in a variety of themes for every day of the week. Everyone is welcome to join us and play, so head on over for inspiration & crafting fun!

I'm a part of the Friday Sentiments Team, so every creation will have a sentiment along with a "twist." The twist for this week is corners while the sentiment is encouranging.

I made the photo corners by using an easy corner bookmark tutorial, then jazzed them up with flowers, ribbons & star buttons (which I removed the shanks from, so they would lay flat.)

Relax





I really tried to make this card "masculine." However, my feminine side definitely won out! I just couldn't resist adding flowers, bling & ribbons.




The corner detail is actually a corner bookmark that can easily be removed. (See photo below.)

It's a wonderful way to give a little gift with your card and add extra detail to it.

For You With Pursonality

I adore purses! I especially enjoy purses that are obnoxious, extravagant & what others would say are "gaudy." I don't know why, but it's just my preference.

I Heart Bottle Caps

I love color! I have so many favorites that it is always hard to pick. However, I do have a couple of color combos that I adore and this creation features one of them: Citrus & gray.

Posies In A Vase

Here is a quick & easy way to create a "vase": Cut the ends off of an oval. Yep, that's all it takes :)



I used the same flowers from the card below, but I changed it up for a completely different look & new creation.
