Anything Goes for DDSB

This week's challenge at Digi Doodle's Shop Best anything goes.  You don't have to use one of their digis but if you do your entry counts as twice! :D  The winner will win a $10 gift certificate for DDSB! You will not be disappointed!  I had a tough time chosing mine.

My card is using one of the new releases from DDSB and the papers are from Fancy Pants - Happy Together collection.  I designed my shape and used Make the Cut for cricut to cut it.  Ladies I have a whole new respect for my cricut!  I will be having fun designing my own shapes. :D

Remember you have until next Wednesday to enter your card at the DDSB blog.  And while you are there check out what the rest of the team did and be sure to leave some "love"!

Vintage

Can you believe in the two years I have been scrapbooking and card making I never made anything vintage?  I was pretty surprised that I never created one because I love the look.  This week's challenge at Charisma Cardz really forced me to take the plunge! However I didn't have much papers for it so when I stumbled upon the Mariposa matstack from DCWV I knew this would help me for the challenge.  I love it and I think I may try vintage again! :D  The stamp is from Whiff Of Joy - Willow with Flowers.

Be sure to submit your card at Charisma Cardz Challenge Blog.  Anything goes but it has to be Vintage.  There are two prizes to be won. 

The first prize is from Bunny Zoe Crafts

The lucky winner will get Vintage Tilda, Vintage Crochet Flowers, and a set of 6 Christmas Tree Charms!!!

The second prize is from All That Scraps

The lucky winner will receive 4 stamps or 1 stamp set!

Remember to head over to the Charisma Cardz Challenge Blog to enter and once you are there check out what the rest of the Team did! You have until next Wednesday to enter.

Frame It

This week's challenge over at the Glitterbabe's challenge blog is Frame it.  Anything goes just remember to use a frame.  This week's challenge is being sponsored by JLJ Designs.  The winner will receive 3 wonderful digis + 1 fabulous paper pack.  So head on over and enter your card.  You don't need to use a Glitterbabe image or a JLJ Design image but you do need to frame it and use any type of glitter.  Have fun.  Be sure to check out what the other DT's have done.

For my card I used my spellbinders.  I will be honest in saying it is the first time I used this frame die cut.  I wonder why I waited so long.  The halloween papers are from Echp Park.  TFL!

Keep It Simple

Sounds easy doesn't it......not.  The challenge this week at Digi Doodle's Shop's Best is Keep It Simple.....but here's the catch.  No designer paper allowed and you must use "one" embellishment.  The winner for this challenge will receive a 10$ gift certificate at the Digi Doodle's Shop's Best Store.  I used one of their new releases "sliding penguins" on my card.  I used glitter cardstock and lace ribbon from Hero Arts.  Be sure to check the DDSB challenge blog to see what the other DT came up with and remember to enter your card with inlinkz.

Halloween Challenge

Hello everyone.  This week's challenge at Glitterbabe's Challenge Blog will have a halloween theme.  My card this week isn't a halloween theme but is using one of the new images from Stef.  There are new images and you will not be disappointed.  Be sure to check it out.

This week's challenge is being sponsored by Copic Musketeers, the winner will receive a $10 gift certificate.

My card is using the Ice Cold image from Glitterbabe's Art Shop and I colored it with Stampin' Up Markers and watercolor brush.  My background paper is the flocked dots from Doodlebug and I misted it blue.  The paper is from Crate Paper - Snow collection and My Mind's Eye snowman paper from last year.  The gorgeous ribbon is from Webster's Pages and it was a gift from DH.  Isn't he sweet!!! :D TFL.

More Than One Fold Challenge

The Charisma Cardz Challenge this week is to have more than one fold on your card.  I admit I don't do these often but love the results.  It really gives the extra WOW factor on your card.  There are 2 prizes to be won. 

First prize is from The Cutting Café!

The winner will receive 3 digi's of their choice!

Prize Two is from Donna's Den!

Sadly Donna's Den is closing but has donated this wonderful prize to the winner!

This week my challenge was a hard one for me.  A dear friend of mine has cancer and it's inoperatable.  Her chances of survival are slim.  I am scared, lost and so sad.  I made this easel card and I want her to look at it everyday so that she has a constant reminder of why she should never give up.  Please send prayers her way!!!  I used the new Pyrus collection from Basic Grey.  Which is sooooo perfect because these are my friends favorite colors.  The stamp is from Digi Stamp Boutique.  The coloring is with Stampin' Up markers with a watercolor brush on watercolor paper.  TFL!

Don't forget to go to Charisma Cardz Challenge Blog to link your card.  You have until Wednesday 7:30PM to get your entries in.  Please link a direct post to your card or you may be disqualified.
