A little Christmas Joy for The Friday Mashup!

This week at The Friday Mashup we have a fun sketch with the added challenge of trying out the inlaid die cutting technique. I absolutely love this effect, but up to this point, haven't tried it out!

I had a bunch of ideas on what I wanted to do (a list of about 5-6 different plans!), but decided on this design because I loved the sparkle paper SO much!

I coloured this darling little digi fairy from Make It Crafty a few days ago and was itching to get her on a card.

Check out the challenge this week:

1. Create a project with the Sketch
2. Create a project with inlaid die cutting
3. or Mash it Up! and create a project with the sketch and inlaid die cutting

Be sure to stop by the Friday Mashup blog and check out all the fantastic projects for the rest of the design team.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Bag-in-a-Box for The Friday Mashup!

Going back in time a bit for this one, as it didn't make it to the blog.

I love these little bag-in-a-box bags... They are super sweet and really great for giving small gifts. I hope to make a few of these to give teach gifts this Christmas.

Sorry for the dark photo... turns out I need a better camera, a brighter place to take pictures, and a larger area to set up bigger projects!

Here's the challenge:

1. Create a project with Glitter
2. Create a 3D Project (Box, bag, candy holder, etc)
3. or Mash it Up! and create 3D item using some Glitter

Check out the challenge this week:

1. Create a project with shades of Marina, Wasabi & Espresso
2. Create a project with a Hunting or Fishing theme
3. or Mash it Up! and create a Hunting or Fishing project with the colours above

Monochromatic for Colour Me...!

It's monochromatic week at Colour Me...! and we're using Mossy Meadow.

I will admit, I find green to be one of the hardest colours to use! But Mossy Meadow has such a vintage winter/christmas feel to it, that I immediately went 'there'.

Check out the challenge this week and be sure to see all the lovely projects by the other designers.

Thanks for stopping by today!
