Crafts Galore Encore: Rabbit with Sunflower

 

 Hello

Today sees that start of a new challenge at Crafts Galore Encore. 

The theme is always 'Anything Goes' and you can enter up to 3 different projects.  The challenge runs all month until mid day (GMT) 27th February.

This month's challenge is kindly sponsored by Polkadoodles.

Here is what I made:

The DT were given images to make sample projects from. I used Rabbit with Sunflower which is a pre-coloured image. I decided to add a little extra colour to it with Polychromo pencils. I fussy cut it and adhered it to a stencil stamped inky background., using oxide inks I die cut the sentiment and used the same green textured card as a mat.

That's all for now.

Many thanks to NIkky at Polkadoodles for her generous prize of 3 digis for our random winner.

Please pop over to Crafts Galore Encore to see the DT's wonderful designs and to enter our challenge. 

We'd love to see your creations.

Remember the challenge is always 'Anything Goes' and so you can create any type of project - it doesn't have to be a card and you can enter up to 3 times.

Thanks for stopping by today!

xoxo

Gecko Galz: Guts, Glitz and Lipstick

Hello

It's a new month and we have a new customer challenge over at the Gecko Galz blog.  

The theme this month is Guts, Glitz and Lipstick.

As always, we have free images to download to make projects to enter the Card Challenge, the Christmas Image Challenge, the Fantasy Challenge, an ATC challenge, a Steampunk Challenge and a Gothic Challenge,. The free images can be accessed by the tabs at the top of the main blog page. We also have a quarterly challenge on the blog.

If that isn't enough challenges, we also have 4 Facebook challenges each month.

We hope you can find some time to join in the fun.

The winner of the Customer challenge will get a $25 Gecko Galz Etsy Store voucher and the runner up a $12 voucher. There are plenty of free Gecko Galz images if you don't already own any. Each blog post has a free image to collect and, if you sign up for the monthly newsletter, there is the chance to claim a free collage set each month.  Also if you make any purchase of $2 or more you receive a free collage sheet.

Here is what I made as inspiration for the Customer Challenge..

It's a rolodex mini book with a cowgirl theme:

I sandwiched together two die cut, brown gingham patterned rolodex cards with ivory lace in between. In all there are 5 double pages.

I used lots of different Gecko Galz collage sets, all listed at the end of this post, and I raided my stash of laces, trims and embellishments for suitable items.

Here are the pages in close up:

Products used:

Glam on the Range collage set

Ride Em Cowgirl Digital Craft Kit

That's all for now!

I hope you'll join our 'Guts, Glitz and Lipstick' challenge where the winner will get a $25 shopping spree at the Gecko Galz shop.

The only rule is that you must use at least one Gecko Galz product (this can be one of the freebies or, of course, you can buy at the Etsy store!) Also if you sign up for the Gecko Galz newsletter, you'll be able to claim a free collage sheet each month.
