Krafty Chicks Challenge #831: ATG: Mood Board

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Because July has a fifth Thursday, we have an ANYTHING GOES theme on the Krafty Chicks Challenge blog. One of the easiest challenges because you can have any theme you like. It can be a card, (fancy fold even), a treat package, home decor, or a scrapbook page. Literally ANYTHING GOES! But this time, take inspiration from the MOOD BOARD.

 #831 ANYTHING GOES

 I was feeling the summer vibe from the mood board and I thought beach and flip flops. I also knew I had a flip flop stamp set (non Stampin' Up!) to play with so the decision was easy.  

 

Products used

• Stamp set: Sandals For Summer (non Stampin' Up!)
• Card Stock: Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Basic White
• DSP: Serene Scenes
• Ink Pads: Melon Mambo, Pecan Pie
• Accessories: Stampin' Dimensionals 
  

 

I like to keep the inside of the card and the envelope clean and simple with a coordinating stamped image. For this card, I played along with The Paper Players sketch this week, I just changed the orientation.

 

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for ANYTHING GOES week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.

Love To Craft #92: ANYTHING GOES

Good day my Crafty friends! Happy Spring! I'm hoping if I say it enough times Mother Nature will get the memo and leave winter behind in Alberta. We are all SO READY! 

It's time to play along with the Love To Craft Challenge Blog. It's a wonderful group of crafty people creating and motivating the viewers to participate in the easy Anything Goes challenge every other month. You have six weeks to make time in your craft space and play along. I can handle that! Can you??

 

Today, I’m playing along with the Just Add Ink Sketch #784. It's a fun and CAS layout.

 

 

Anyone who knows me, I shy away from the colour purple except when it comes to flowers. I haven't met a purple flower I don't love yet. And lilacs are one of my favourites, coming in close second after the African Violet. I can't wait till they are in bloom, for their beauty and the aroma. But for now I'll settle for stamping them.

 

 

 I like to finish the card set with a matching inside and envelope. Keep it simple with just a little card stock and a coordinating image.

 

 

Hope you enjoyed my card today and that it motivates you to get creative. We all need a little me time, why not get crafty?? Upload your project for this week's Anything Goes theme on the LOVE TO CRAFT CHALLENGE BLOG.

Krafty Chicks Challenge #818: Anything Goes (ATG) with a TWIST

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Because April has a fifth Thursday, we have an ANYTHING GOES theme on the Krafty Chicks Challenge blog. One of the easiest challenges because you can have any theme you like. But this year, we've added a TWIST to our ATG challenges. In January we added an embossed element to our projects. This time, the TWIST is a COLOURED IMAGE. It can be a card, (fancy fold even), a treat package, home decor, or a scrapbook page. Literally ANYTHING GOES...with  COLOURING!

 #818 ANYTHING GOES

This time around I created an encouragement card using the Just Add Ink sketch #784 as inspiration. I did change the orientation. Although my focal elements did fit in portrait direction, I thought it looked better in landscape.

 I also thought, in light of the recent snow storm in Alberta, rubber boots were a fitting image to colour. I'm even throwing in some spring vibes with the pretty flowers. Now let's hope Mother Nature catches my drift. 

Products used

• Stamp set: No Matter The Weather, Paper Pumpkin March 2020
• Card Stock: Thick Basic White, Soft Sea Foam, Highland Heather
• Ink Pads: Memento
  
• Stampin' Blends: Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie
• Accessories: purple sequins, Stitched Shape Circle dies, Stampin' Dimensionals

 

 

I like to keep the inside of the card and the envelope clean and simple with just a coordinating stamped image.
