November 27th The Outlawz Sunday Songs & Rhymes with Mirtillamente!

 Our delightful poem for our inspiration comes from Susan this time and it made me chuckle!  

What a wonderful bird the frog are!

When he stands he sit almost;

When he hop he fly almost.

He ain't go no sense hardly;

He ain't got no tail hardly either/

When he sit, he sits on what he ain't got almost.

Our super fantastic sponsor is Mirtillamente!  We do appreciate this wonderful sponsor so much!

Remember to tell us what inspired you from the poem for your creation!  I was inspired by the whole poem and the wonderful craziness of it!

I had a play with Crazy Paw: Froggy (colored version) 😁  I used a fall paper with some of the labels and tag strips.  I printed the first line of the poem out in Photoshop to add to the tag.  Yep, I misspelled wonderful!  It does not have two f's and I was going to change it but it just seemed to fit the poem and this cute little frog and caterpillar who might not be able to spell either! :)   We look forward to seeing your projects at The Outlawz Sunday Songs and Rhymes Challenge!

November 26th Paper A La Mode Challenge with Decosse's Dynamite Doodles!

 Where is time flying to!!  It's time for The Outlawz Paper A La Mode Challenge where we create anything but CARDS!  No cards!  I have to remind myself, too! 😝  Our fantastic sponsor this month is Decosse's Dynamite Doodles!  I have been a huge fan of theirs for years and I hope you will check them out!  My scrapbook layout is featuring papers from the Nature of Christmas Mini Kit!

I try to take my phone with me when I go to feed my horse as there are always so many neat things in my yard to snap a photo of!  These two photos were taken probably two years apart but both from the path to the horses stable!  I love the fall and I thought the quote was quiet right for this page!  We hope to see you at The Outlawz Paper A La Mode Challenge this month!

LeighSBDesigns Challenge #11 Falling Leaves

I used the Tangled Maple Leap by LeighSBDesigns!  One of my all time favorites!  I colored up with Copics, fussy cut and inked the edge with my Pitt artist pen.  I used a senti by We Are 3's Itty Bitty Fall set!  I made a card with some papers from Autumn Blaze by Recollections.  I inked all the edges with Distress Ink vintage photo.  I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Now off this goes to LeighSBDesigns Challenge #11 Falling Leaves!

November 21st The Outlawz Monday Greetings with LeighSBDesigns!

Oh what fun it is to have the amazing and talented LeighSBDesigns with us this challenge as our marvelous sponsor!  Thanks, Leigh!😻   Our Monday Greetings Challenge required greeting this time is "Christmas Greetings" with an optional twist to "Add a Santa Hat!"   Your Christmas greeting can be any form of holiday hi...use your imagination! 

The design team got to have a play with the oh, so gorgeous Santa Whiskers!  I used one of the wonderful sentiments from A Charming Christmas Compendium of Festive Sayings which has 17 digital sentiments included!  I use this set soooo much as they are awesome and always at my fingertips!  I made an adaption to the Bi-fold Card found at The Butterfly Challenge!  When I am stumped for a card shape I always hop over there and have a look!  I colored Santa Whiskers with Copics and watercolored around him with worn lipstick Distress Ink.  I made a belly band to close my card and attached the kitty to it adding the senti under his chin!  So much fun!  Take a look at LeighSBDesigns and show some love!   We can't wait to see your Christmas Greeting project at The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge!

November 13th The Outlawz Sunday Songs & Rhymes with Morgan's Artworld!

Little Christmas Carollers

By L.A. Franc

We are a band of carollers,

We march through frost and snow,

But care not for the weather

As on our way we go.

At every hall or cottage

That stands upon our way,

We stop to give the people

Best wishes for the day.

We pray a merry Christmas,

Made bright by Christmas cheer,

With peace, and hope, and gladness

And all they may hold dear.

And for all those that happen

To pass us on our way

We have a smile, and wish them

A merry Christmas-day.

This is our inspiration poem for this challenge at The Outlawz Sunday Songs & Rhymes!  You can be inspired by any word, phrase or anything just make sure you tell us in your post what you were inspired by!  I was inspired by "We have a smile and wish them".  Our amazing sponsor is Morgan's Artworld!  I colored the gorgeous image Winter 7 with colored pencils and made a form of a twisted easel card.  I was crafting from bed following an Iced Images Youtube tutorial so I may have drifted out of the lines a bit on my card base!

 I used a senti from LeighSBDesigns A Charming Christmas Compendium of Festive Sayings.  

 Come join us for a chance to win the three awesome images our design team were allowed to work with!

The Outlawz Sunday Songs & Rhymes Challenge is waiting for you!
