Happy Birthday CRAFT Challenge

 Good Morning All and a Very Happy 12th Birthday to us all here at CRAFT Challenge!!

 This year we are 12 years old already and still going strong. Only one team member has been present from the start, Jo. I have seen a lot of team members come and go over these 12 years, but all have been fabulous and very talented. I feel honoured to be working with such talented and lovely people. Even though my time is limited these days, I still love being part of this team.

 If you feel you would like to join our fabulous team, then just have a look at our DT Call page, which will inform you of any openings on the team. Or simply get in touch with us and let us know.

 And now it’s time for our birthday celebrations. This week our challenge is

                                                       Birthday!

 (what else could it be?)

 Anything that fits in with this subject, qualifies for entering this challenge.

 There is a maximum of 1 entry per person for this challenge and as always it needs to be recent (new) work (so created and posted after this challenge has started). Although we love to see your work, it would put those contestants that put more than 1 entry in at an unfair advantage. The same limitation exists for the prizes to be won on the blogs of our DT members.

 

Please also turn word verification off as this makes leaving a comment on your lovely creations much easier. We will not leave a comment if you have word verification switched on.

 Here is an alphabetical list of the fabulous sponsors for our Blog Hop, all loyal supporters of our challenge blog:

 

The rules this year are very simple:

 

1.     Make a project for this challenge and we will put your entry in the random draw for the prize from Sweet n Sassy.

2.     Visit the blogs of our DT and enter their Linky or their comments if no Linky is in place to be put in the random draw for the prize on their blog.

3.     As always, we will choose the Top 3 as we do every week and this week each Top 3 will win a prize too.

 

     You should have come here from  NannaConnie’s Blog   and your next stop is Sue’s Blog

 The first prize on this blog is 3 sets from

Cutting Cafe

 And

The second prize is 3 images from

Crafty Sentiments

 Here is my card using

 Using ‘Just relax’ from Crafty Sentiments

&

Using ‘Assorted Fold Cards Set 2’ from Cutting Cafe

 



 



I used just one of the card cutting files from the cutting cafe 

aand I have to say I love this style of card. I used my 

Cricut Maker to cut the card, but there are PDF

 files in the set so you can cut it out without a cutting machine.

The sentiment is part of the set too.

I printed the image twice , flipping  one of them and 

coloured them with Ink Lily Pens.

Please enter your card in the linky below to be in with a chance to win this prize or leave a link in the comment box below.

Whale of a Time

 Please read my Data Protection and Privacy Policy – (page tab above)

 Good Morning Crafty Peeps,

It’s time for a new monthly challenge at …

Jan’s Digi Stamps Challenge

As always the theme is Anything Goes .

There will be 2 random draws; one specifically for entries which use a JDS image, and the other for everyone else.  Each winner will receive a gift certificate for $10 to be spent in the store. 

Today I am using just one of the many elements from one of Jan’s new sets for May called

The Sandbox

As always there are numerous images both black and white and pre- coloured along with many sentiments to help you create the perfect card.

I chose the black and white whale and coloured him with Ink Lily Markers.

The background paper is from the Raspberry Road set – Ocean Breeze.

I added a sentiment to the paper before I printed it.

The whole card is CAS which I feel is perfect for this little cutie.

Don’t forget to check out my fellow teamies projects – they are so talented.

Happy Crafting
