September with Through The Craft Room Door Challenge!

 It's lucky September 13th and time for another wonderful challenge at Through The Craft Room Door!  We are sponsored by DRS Rubber Stamps this go round!

I had a fun time working with "Happy Bee" and "BEE-cause You're Special" this month!  I feel a special closeness with bees bee-cause I have a huge honey bee hive/colony living in a tree trunk in my yard!  I can't even begin to guess how many are in the hive but it is a lot!  

I chose to make a two layered hidden pillar card that folds down for mailing.  Unfortunately I could not get a decent picture of it and I really tried!  I layered on metallic paper and gave the bottom layer a flower patterned paper for the bee to have lots of pollen to collect!  I colored everything up with Copics.  I hope to see you at our challenge where it is always Anything Goes so get those crafty bits and bobs out and join in the fun at Through The Craft Room Door Challenges!

TTCRD July 19th with JMC Designs!

Here we are in the middle of a scorching hot July where I live and ready for another challenge at Through The Craft Room Door!  We are sponsored by JMC Designs and I had the pleasure of working with the digital image "Harvey" from the collection Happy Campers! 

I love camping and this little cute camper (which I know has an air conditioner!) would be the perfect place for a nice quiet getaway by the lake!

I colored Harvey up with colored pencils in bright happy colors!  I popped the image after trimming onto some patterned paper after inking all the edges with Distress Ink crackling campfire.  I made space for my tags (birthday wishes cut from a paper pad with ribbons added) with foam tape around it to make it a happy pocket!  The background is more patterned paper from the same paper pad also with the edges inked!  I added some white gel pen marks here and there and added a small pink pearl for the door knob.  You can't go wrong with any of the images from this collection is you want to send a smile to someone young or old!  We hope to see you at Through The Craft Room Door for this challenge which is Anything Goes and sponsored by the awesome JMC Designs!

Through The Craft Room Door June 21st Challenge!

 It's time for Team A at Through The Craft Room Door Challenges to share some inspiration with images by the fabulous All Dressed Up Stamps!  I used the ultra cute Sleepy Time!  This little fox is so adorable and I loved coloring him up with Copics!

I made an H Pillar Card from a tutorial by Iced Images YouTube!  I used some night time mushroom paper and some moon patterned paper for the structure of the card.  The circle was part of the paper pad so I trimmed around it, fussy cut and inked all the edges with Distress Inks and attached it to the front pillars.  I had the DREAM stamp in my stash from when you could get stamps at Hobby Lobby for a couple of dollars!  I stamped the sentiment on another part of the paper pad and popped on foam dots.  Thanks so much to All Dressed Up for allowing me to play with this cutie and sponsoring the challenge this go round!  Come play with us for a chance to win two images from the store!  Hope to see you soon!

Through The Craft Room Door May 24th Challenge!

We are proudly sponsored by DRS Designs Rubber Stamps this go round!  The winner will receive a $20 voucher for the store and DRS Designs has so many marvelous rubber stamps!  For my project I used  the "Sunflower Bucket" with the word stamp "From my heart to yours" and colored with colored pencils.

I used papers from Garden Grove Collection by BoBunny and inked the sentiment with Distress Oxide and edges with Distress Inks.  We hope you will gather your supplies and come play with us where it is always Anything Goes!  

Through the Craft Room Door First DT Project!

 This was supposed to be posted on here Tuesday and silly Blogger didn’t do it’s job! That’s right I am blaming technology and I am sticking to it!  I am super excited to be on the design team of Through the Craft Room Door.   So here is my first project for the TTCRD Challenge which is Anything Goes!. I had the pleasure of creating with ZoZo the Hobo and Zoey the Shih tzu by our sponsor Color of Love!

I colored her with colored pencils and markers and panted the background with watercolor.  I popped the layers up with foam dots and glued ZoZo on the top layer.  The sentiment is a freebie from Stampington.  She is absolutely gorgeous!  I hope you will check out Color of Love and come play with us at Through the Craft Room Door!

I am entering this at The Outlawz Twisted Thursdays Anything Goes/Option Birds or Feathers  and The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge!
