Challenge #125 Anything Goes

Hello and welcome back for another Crafty Gals Corner Challenge.  I hope that everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend.  I didn't get a chance to decorate graves this year but I will be out there next year with bells on.  Before I show you my project for this week, let's see who our fabulous sponsor(s) are...



Prize:  $20 Gift Certificate

Prize:  3 Digital Images
Wow, those are some pretty fantastic prizes for this week.  So make sure that you go on over to Crafty Gals Corner Challenge and link up your project.  This week is ANYTHING GOES!  So have some fun.  Remember to show some love for our sponsor(s) also.  
So for this weeks project I have an image called All American Avery by The Paper Nest Dolls.  This image would have been perfect for Memorial Day.  I did make it for the 4th of July.  I guess it would work for Veterns Day also.  Not much to tell you about what I used in the way of materials.  I just colored with Prang colored pencils.  I did use some SVG's from from the Scrap Factory program created by ScrappyDew!  I used Recollections paper for the base card and just went from there.  Here is my inspiration.
I think that All American Avery is very patriotic!

This is the inside.

That is it for this week.  I can't wait for the start of July.  Crafty Gals Corner Challenges has some fantastic designers joining.  So stay tuned for their debut.  Bright blessings for your best week ever!  Blessings, Jana

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #124 2+ Designer Papers

Gosh, time sure flies when you are crafting.  Time for another challenge.  This week it is use 2+ Designer Papers.  Before I show you what I have created, lets see who our fabulous sponsor(s) are for this week.


Prize:  3 Digital Images


Morgan's Art World


Prize:  # Digital Images


Two great sponsors this week.  Remember friends, please give some love to them.  Without our sponsors there would NOT be a Crafty Gals Corner Challenge.  We LOVE our sponsors!!!

So now on to my project.  This week my image is from Morgan's Art World.  The image is called Kitten at Nap time.  This kitty is just a perfect match of my late kitty Munchkin Forrest.  He was a brute of a cat and could be a great cuddler.  If you would like a list of materials used, just email me or comment and I will get it right to you.


So without further ado...

The image was a total joy to color.  I let my imagination take me away with all the colorful blankets and quilts.  I actually have a crazy quilt that my mama made.  Quilts are to treasure.  That's it for this week.  Next week I have an early start to 4th of July.  

Bright Blessings, Jana

Challenge #123 Let's add some flowers

Hello everyone!  This weeks challenge is to add some flowers.  But first let's start with who are our sponsor (s) for this week.

Prize $5 Gift Certificate



Prize:  3 Winners

(1) $10 Gift Certificate

(2) Digital Image

(3) Digital Image

Boy howdy, what a bunch of great prizes for this week.  Make sure you show some love to our sponsors.  They greatly appreciate it.

My project this week is from Digital Delights.  The image is called Ms. Luvvy Owl.  Such a great image and so many options/ideas that can be done with this one.  Here is what I came up with.

This is a thank you card for a birthday present that I received.


I love the way that I popped up the owl with foam dots.  The paper is from DCWV and is called purple petals.  I've had this forever.  Time to use some paper that I have been saving for a rainy day.

Short and sweet this week.  Be back next week with another digital image.  Have your best week ever, bright blessings, Jana

Challenge #122 Bring on the bling!

It's all about bling for this weeks new challenge.  Gosh it's challenge #122.  Time flies when you are having fun.  1st, let's see who our fabulous sponsor(s) are for this weeks challenge.






Prize:  $15 Gift Certificate

For this weeks challenge I have a digital image called Penguin Love.  I requested the colored version and did a print and cut with my fabulous KNK Zing cutter and MTC (Make The Cut) software.  The minute I saw this image I knew exactly what type of card to make.  (sometimes you just get lucky)  The center step card instructions are available over at Splitcoast Stampers.  The background paper was also provided by The Paper Shelter.  So here is what I came up with...

This is how a center step card is folded

Finally the outside of the card.

Next week is another really fun challenge.  To all the mom's around the United States, A very happy Mothers Day this upcoming Sunday.

Bright blessings for your best week ever, Bright Blessings, Jana

Challenge #121 Clean and Simple (CAS)

Welcome back to Wednesday my crafty friends.  This weeks challenge is clean and simple (CAS).  But first, lets see who our fabulous sponsor(s) are this week.

$15 Dollar Gift Certificate

3 Digital Images




1 Digital Design

My digital image this week is from Kitty Bee Designs.  It is called Narwhal Love.  Did you know that a Narwhal is called the unicorn of the sea?  Yeppers!  My Narwhals are a little fancy with different colored tooth.  Another fact, the horn on a Narwhal is actually a tooth that grows this way.  Very little supplies were used in this project.  So I think I will just show you what I made.

These are the backs
These are the fronts

This will finish off my birthday card marathon for 2017.  Now on to a friends request for some pretty note cards to send to friends.

Have your very best day ever, Blessings, Jana
