Crafters Cafe Challenge #311 Any thing goes with a twist of Rainbows and/or Bright Colors.

 Hey everyone!  I am sitting in my craft room.  No sounds in the house.  Got my DH into bed.  All of a sudden a big crack of thunder and the rain comes pouring down.  I run outside and twirl in the grass.  Gosh darn, I love a good summer rain shower.  We sure needed it.  I love this because it will put a damper on all the pollen that is around and causing many Oregonians to sneeze and have the sniffles.  Thank goodness.  For challenge # 311 we have 2 sponsors.  Here they are!

I love working with Dr. Digi's House of Stamps.   The images are many and your can select whatever you are dreaming of.  For the past 6 years I have used an image from Dr. Digi's for my hubbies birthday card.  He always gets a kick out of it!  Go and please leave some love and a thank you.  The sponsors really do appreciate it.  

Just a quick update on the challenge rules.  Our challenges are now anything goes with a twist.  Also there is no longer a limit of entries.  Enter all you would like.  

For challenge #311 I have used an image from Dr. Digi House of Stamps.  He is named Scuba Scott!  Considering my hubby is certified as a Master Driver I thought he would appreciate this card.  Here we go!

The base it a deep sky blue from Recollections.  The image is
matted on white scrap.  The underwater scene was created by
me and my oil based Castle Arts Gold Colored Pencils were used.
  They blend like a dream.  The circles are a die that I purchased
from Amazon.  I added a starfish sticker.  The scuba diver is
 colored using my Prismacolor Pencils.  

The paper I used is from a K&Co. big book that I have had 
forever.  I will write a note inside when his birthday is almost
here.

I have gave my hubby the card and it is proudly displayed on the top of his desk.  

That it for this challenge.  So until next time...

Stay safe, stay healthy and know you are blessed!

Challenge #258 Anything goes with option of using a embossing folder

 Hello everyone!  How's your summer going?  Being a full-fledged Oregonian, I can NOT wait until it starts raining and it's gloomy.  That is why I am so into Halloween and All Saints day.  Can I tell you a secret?  I have had Halloween decorations up since the second week of July.  Love my purple lights and black garland.  I will post a pic when I get all my decorations up.  On to the challenge.  Here are the sponsors.

Two of my favorite sponsors to work for and I love the images they share with us on the Design Team for Crafty Gals Corner Challenge.  Please go share some love and maybe leave a thank you.  They deserve it!

This challenge I am working with an image from The Paper Shelter.  Here is the link to the images.  Dipping A Toe.  Fun and fantastic image to work with.  Here is what I finally came up with.  (surprizes me sometimes).  

I have colored the image with every single type of colored 
pencil, markers and I think there might be some pastel chalk 
in there also.  I did a print and cut on the actual figure.  Paper
pieced the sand.  Found two seashell stickers.  The I found
a film cell svg pattern.  Cut that with my 24" Silver bullet
cutter.  I had the darnedest time finding a shut board.  But I 
did.  If you read it, it says 'dipping a toe'.

Inside left is decorated with cut outs from Graphic 45 set called
'On The Boardwalk'.

This paper is from a K & Co. big book (that I have had 
forever)

The back.  Logo and inital.

Well that is what I came up with for August 2024 Crafty Gals Challenge #258.  When this composition was complete I was surprised.  I certainly hope that you can come and play along for some amazing prizes.

So from my heart to yours,

Stay Healthy, Stay Safe and know you are blessed!!!
