Use a Christmas Sentiment at the Outlawz Greetings Challenge This Week

Welcome to another opportunity to add to your Christmas card stash. The Outlawz Monday Greetings has a new challenge, asking crafter to create a card with a Christmas Sentiment. My card is a Clean And Simple (CAS) one, showcasing a sentiment stamp from Eureka Stamps, one of two sponsors this week.

The image is called Peace on Earth. After coloring the sentiment with Copics, I used Photoshop to finish off my card, then printed it before popping it onto cardstock. Digital resources include (from) Pixel Scrappers.com: Janet Scott, Sheila Reid, Pauline Thompson & Dream4ever Designs.

********************

The Outlawz Greetings is also being sponsored by The East Wind, whose image, Baby It's Cold Outside, is featured on my card below.

I created this card using the never-ending stash I seem to have built up over the years. I swear, I will continue to ruthlessly clean out my craft room and use up my stash! I have no business stepping into a craft store except for adhesives.

So, get ahead on your own Christmas card stash and get in line to win free digis from Eureka Stamps and the East Wind!

Forget Me Not

Welcome to a new challenge at Craft Your Passion challenge blog. This week's sponsor is The East Wind, and the lovely digital image I got to play with is called Aurora Forget-Me-Not. After coloring her with Copics, I popped her onto a card face with stitched edges. I added a big old moon for her to gaze at and added a few hand-drawn stars. I added coordinating fibers in red before finishing off my card with a well-known quote.
We haven't seen the moon for quite a few days near Chicago due to the overcast skies. But I sure love to see that old devil moon looking down on me on those clear nights. Some people wish upon stars, but I love to make wishes on the moon.
The challenge this week is Anything Goes, and we would love to see what you create. Link up at the challenge blog for your chance to win three digis from The East Wind. Meanwhile, check out the inspiration from all the DT this week! And as always, crafters, have fun!

The East Wind Blows into Your Scrapbook Place challenge blog

Can you believe that January is gone?! That was a fast month, and a cold one for us folks in the northern half of the world. Cold days means I stay in more, so I got to play in my craft room and create another page in my acrylic album.
I used an image called Aurora Love You from The East Wind. They are sponsoring Your Scrapbook Place challenge this month. I love to use non-traditional colors for hair, so I made mine pink and carried it into some of the embellishments on my acrylic page. The pink flowers are handmade, and I used a spellbinders die to frame Aurora using leftover patterned papers.
My album is nearly full. Have you worked with acrylic albums before? I have to keep reminding myself to check the back so I don't embellish myself into a corner by making it difficult to work with the back side of each page. So far, so good!
Your Scrapbook Place offers monthly challenges from the first to the end of each month, and are almost always Anything Goes. AND you get twice the chance to win prizes from the sponsor, The East Wind, if you yourself use an image from The East Wind!
Happy crafting!
