The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge!

Howdy folks!  Our challenge for this two weeks is to use a Sweet Hello (hello can be any form of greeting with a sweet image or word to it) and the optional twist is to add a leaf!

Our sponsor is Wink Wink Ink 


 I used the oh so sweet image Sweet BFF's  and I used the precolored version!  I used backgrounds and the sentiment created on Procreate!   

We do hope you will join our challenge which is now on a blog after a lot of hard work by the founders of this long lasting challenge!  So head over to The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge  where the GREETING is SWEET HELLOS (any sweet sentiment/greeting) with an optional TWIST to add a LEAF 😊

The Outlawz Festive Fridays Challenge with Angie Bloom!

I am so looking forward to cooler weather dare I even say the odd cold day or two?  We step ahead to Christmas with our sponsor this month Angie Blom Digital Designs and two cards using the ultra sweet and inspiring images "Oh Come Let Us Adore Him" and "Deer Holiday Wishes"!

Thanks so much to Angie Blom Digital Designs for sponsoring The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge for August!  The winner of this challenge will receive  $15 to spend at Angie Blom Digital Designs!   I am showing two cards today because I was sick with Covid and couldn't post for the last challenge.  First I am showing this precious image with this sensational sentiment "Oh Come Let Us Adore Him"!  This set has several different ways that you can configure your card or layout and I absolutely love it!  I used Copics, glue and ribbon to set a starry night for the birth of Jesus!

My next card is from the very versatile Deer Holiday Wishes set which contains 5 images and 3 sentiments all of which are so very lovely!  I colored up this little adorable deer wishing a Happy Birthday with Copics and used Christmas papers and ribbons!
I hope you are inspired to come play with us at The Outlawz Festive Fridays Challenge this go round!  The themes are:
Christmas
Flowers
Summer Days
Animals

The Outlawz Sunday Songs and Rhymes Challenge!

August 7 - 20 at The Outlawz Sunday Songs and Rhymes is being sponsored by LeighSBDesigns and our inspiration song is Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas by Sam Smith!  I was inspired by the title of the song which makes me think of how much I love the holiday season!  To help me share this yule tide joy is Oddleigh Poinsettia Elf with a sentiment from  A Charming Christmas Compendium of Festive Sayings!

I colored the gorgeous Oddleigh Poinsettia with Copics and layered her on some patterned paper then layering on a Gelli print paper embossed with a poinsettia embossing folder!  Then to add some shine I used a green metallic sheet for the base!  I printed the senti out and inked the edges with Distress Ink and popped on foam dots!  So I am in such a Christmas mood right now!  Grab your crafting goodies and come play along with us!  Please remember to tell us what word or phrase or feeling from the song that inspired your project!
