A Unicorn Without A Horn

When I was little, I believed that any horse with wings was a unicorn.  It took me a few years to get that the horn was what made it a unicorn, not the wings.  I also had to understand that wings are not mandatory on unicorns.  It was a hardship.

I've been toying around with this card for awhile and today I just went for it and threw it together in minutes.  I'm LOVING how it came out!!

#Believe #Joy

Have you guys seen the skit from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon where he and Justin Timberlake say #HASHTAG like 100 times?  Everytime I use this stamp set, I think of that skit.  Anyways, I'm at the last minute again for Tis The Season Stamping's challenge, and this time it's an inspiration photo.

While I was creating my card, I realized that it would also fit perfectly with the sketch challenge at Digi Sketch Challenge.

Here's what I made:

No matter what I did, the light colors didn't photograph well.  I really like the monochromatic design though.  It definitely didn't start out that way, but I'm happy with it.

Just four challenges today....

• Tis The Season Stamping - TTS23 Photo Inspiration
• Digi Sketch Challenge - Sketch 1/4
• Completely Christmas - #26 Anything Christmas Goes
• Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge Extra - Anything Christmas Goes

I'm getting quite an amount of Christmas cards made.  That's kind of exciting to me.  Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Laters!

Less Is More?

I am not usually the CAS type.  I like my glitter and my dimension and flowers and other embellishment goodies.  Every now and then though, I'll try to scale things back a bit and see what I can come up with. I really like not keeping myself in a box for too long, so this card was good for me.  I couldn't decide on color schemes, so you'll see another similar one in a few days.  I have to say I'm not wholeheartedly sure if this style is me or not.  I think sometimes I try too hard.

I used a watercolor background and TBH my inspiration came from just playing with the die.  I kept cutting feathers and they were piled on the floor and this card was born.

Also - My TIP for Top Tip Tuesday is this: If you're wet-embossing a background and you make a mistake, just cover it up with a die cut!  That's what I did here, and you can't even tell where I missed stamping. :)

Love this color against the background, don't you?

**Dig Deep** New Challenge with Crafty Creations!

It's time for a new challenge at Crafty Creations and the theme is Dig Deep (use something OLD from your stash) and I decided to pull out a random OLD stamp and make it seem new again!

I used old embossing powder, too, that had never been used.  The flowers are old too, and the rhinestones.  Only the base card is newish, like six months or so.

ALSO we're having a DT call!!  If you'd like to join our fabulous team, just put a DT after your entry into the challenge!  You must have an active blog, be able to commit to two projects a month, comment on weekly entries and host the challenge every twelve weeks.  Good luck!

Shake It Out, Shake It Out

It's one of those crazed weeks the past few days and I'm not sure why, but I can't seem to get much of anything done.

This is a birthday card I made for my brother's girlfriend.  She looooooves cupcakes.  It's so fun to make a custom card, creating your own pattern as you go along.

The pattern was created by copying various coloring pages.  Each layer is separate and was glued together.

You can really see all the sparkly and spangly goodies in this one.

And here's the homemade easel I created.  This was fun but a challenge.  I'll have to try and make another one before I forget how.  LOL.

Tell of The Stars

I've never played with one of Word Art Wednesday's quotes before, but this one really got my creative mind going.  I'm always so to the last minute with these things, but at least I got it done!  I'm very happy to have finished this card and I think I will challenge myself to use their inspirational, Biblical quotes more often.  This week's quote was:

Isn't that pretty?  So I made this:

You'll be seeing this background stamp a lot lately, it's new and one I've coveted for a long time now!

Flooded With Ideas

Rain rain, go away....after an unusually dry summer here, we got about six inches of rain in two hours today.  And it pretty much rained all. Day.  Long.  With freeways underwater and cars stranded everywhere, it was kinda freaky outside but lucky for me I was indoors, crafting away.  I had a lot of stuff in my head to make today, and one of those things was my (always at the last minute) Christmas card for Tis The Season Stamping's Challenge.  It's a sketch challenge this time around, and it's oh-so-cute and was fun to work with.

Here's what I made:

Just two challenges today:

• Tis The Season Stamping #22 - Sketch
• Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Card Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes

**ANYTHING GOES** New Challenge With Mema's Crafts!

Happy August!!  It's time for a new challenge with Mema's Crafts and we've got a great ANYTHING GOES theme this month!  We had two lovely sponsors to design with this month and at the end of the post there's a wee bonus to share with you all!

The Paper Nest Dolls were nice enough to share the digital image of their rubber stamps with our DT to work with this month.  I love all things Disney, so I picked Genie Avery to make this fun, Aladdin-themed card.

I wanna enter this in a couple challenges:

• Word Art Wednesday - #143 Anything Goes 3/5
• Scribble And Scrap - #22 Anything Goes 3/3

I love how it turned out.  Such a cute image!

Continuing with my Disney theme, I picked an Alice in Wonderland image from Make It Crafty!  The minute I saw Shrunken Alice, I thought of putting her in my Bell Jar.  Although the "glass" doesn't show up that well in the photo, I'm loving this idea. Gotta do another card with this one soon.

I'm going to enter this in a few challenges:

• My Craft Creations - Anything Goes
• FAN-Tastic Tuesday - #46 Anything Goes 3/4
• Eclectic Ellapu - Anything Goes
• Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge - #39 Anything Goes

The surprise I have for you is an EXTRA project to share!  We've got a bonus challenge happening at Mema's Crafts this month!  Just enter your name on the Linky Tool and you could win a super-fun prize!

My bonus project is a set of chipboard letters that I altered.  I hung them in my craft room.  The I has an envelope that has little notes inside that I can doodle on from time to time :)
