613 Avenue Create #112-Anything Goes-Option Birthday

Hi, crafty friends!  You will probably be amazed at my project today.  Amazed because I did not make a card or a tag.  I made a door hanger - I amazed myself - LOL!!  Our challenge is Anything Goes as usual, with a birthday option. I did not specify happy birthday on my hanger. I intend to hang it on the guest room door when our grandson visits. I will put some candy and gum in the hanger to welcome him. The door hanger is a Cricut cut and the image is Bugagoo - I just love the Bugaboo stick figures - they are too cute!!

The DP and card stock are from my stash. I cut out the image using a Fawn Lawn stitched rectangle die. The basketball stamp is from the $1 bin (back when it was only $1) at Michaels. I used Spectrum Noir markers and Close to My Heart ink.

I'm entering these challenges:  Brown Sugar #134 - Boxes, Bags, Tags; Digitally Sweet Challenges #128 - What's in Your Bag; and Addicted to Stamps and More #132 - Make Your Mark.

Be sure to hop over to 613 Avenue Create to see the DT inspiration and to see who won our last challenge.

613 Avenue Create #110-Anything Goes-Option Color Bingo

Hi, there!  Today we've got a new variation on our Create Your Own Challenge theme - Color Bingo! Here's the chart to use:

Our sponsors are Aliciabel.com and Inky Impressions. I've used Inky Impressions Warm Hello Circle and the first line across on our chart - blue, yellow and green.

It doesn't show well in the photo, but background is dusted with green chalk  The hand cut banner in the right corner is green also. I colored the flower with my Spectrum Noirs and cut it out with a Nestie. It's mounted on a piece of DP cut with a stitched rectangle die from Fawn Lawn. The Washi and all papers are from my stash.

Dance Thanks

This card is for a fellow member of my Praise Dance Ministry at church.  She arranged a group outing for us, and we wanted to thank her.  It's clean, simple and easy.  I don't know the name of the embossing folder. The image is from Robert Jackson - I decided it look great uncolored. The sticker is SRM. The cardstock and bling are from my stash. I chose blue and white because they were the colors for our Women's Week.

I'm entering these challenges:  Brown Sugar #132- Anything Goes; Sister Act Card Challenge #92- Any Goes; and 7 Kids College Fund #118- Anything Goes.

Have a lovely day!

613 Avenue Create #109- Use Doodling in Your Design

You Have to be my Friend...

This is my second post today. I wanted to enter CASology's Challenge for week 130 - Friend.  I've had this stamp for years and have never used it. I bought it with my best friend in mind.  We have been friends since we were 9 years old. Now we're grandmothers together, so you know this sentiment is oh so true!

I used water color paper and embossed it with dots. Then I wet the paper and painted it with Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink.  I stamped the sentiment in Hero Arts Orange Soda ink. The flowers were cut with a die, but I don't know what it is. I inked the edges of the flowers and added a bit of bling. All paper is from my stash.

I'm also entering 4 Crafty Chicks #230 - Best Friends and Uniko Studio Challenge #17 - Love & Friendship.
