The First of the Year!! { Challenge TWEL-VE! }

We all hope you had a terrific first month of the new 2011!! So we begin this year and end this month. with the challenge....

IN WITH THE NEW, OUT WITH THE OLD!

We want you to create a project with new things! It could be new paper, DP, stamps, image, etc.!!!

And along with first challenge, we have the first sponsor!!

*Wink *Wink Ink!

Here's a little background:

*Wink *Wink Ink is a digital stamp company that specializes in cute images of children, animals, and other fun creatures. In addition to the well drawn detailed style of our images, the thing that really sets *Wink *Wink Ink apart is the pre-colored images that are included with every stamp you buy!  These are great for doing quick projects when you don't have time to color or for use as a guide for coloring your own.  You get a colored jpg, a black and white jpg, and a transparent png file of each image for one low price. You can also get free sentiments to go with some of our images at our brand new store!

They will be giving the winner $15 in images!! What a fabulous prize?!

And to add onto that, an awesome new DT!!

Here are their creations:

This is one of my favorites cause it's mixed media!! So, here's a few of the things {out of tons!} I used cardstock, wrapping paper, ink, some stamping, acrylic paint, stickers, and that's all I can think of right now! So, a whole lota stuff!! The challenge is anything goes so I think this'll fit right in!!!!! :)

Bugaboo Hop #2!

 Looks like blogger flunked today! I'm back home now~

   The week is almost over and by the time you read this, {hopefully} I will be on the bus to school! 

So, my second inchie for the hop is.....

The challenge was for a birthday so in the second photo, I added the 'happy b-day'!  Some scrap DP and a little drawing of a dude on a skateboard! Tied a little ribbon on the inside and there ya go!

I'll be posting another one of these tomorrow!!

First project for the Bugaboo Hop!

And so it is Monday, the start of another week, but hopefully we all get this holiday off for those in the U.S but those not, I hope this is an awesome week for ya!

As I have mentioned,  I will be posting the projects {inchies} I've made for the Bugaboo Birthday Hop!! So, th start with, here's the Monday project...

I used cardstock, little scraps and a little image I found after stamping a while back and included the challenge, blue and white! I hope this works cause as you can see, I have more than just those two colors!!!!

Real quick today but I'll be back soon this week!

An Update!!

I'm super excited about our 3-day weekend!! I hope to get crafty this weekend but I think I'll have to push it to Monday!! There have been so many things going on that I haven't had time to update my lonely blog!! 

The DT and I have been working to get you those challenges although it's going a bit slow with word from our sponsors! Those challenges will start at January 31st.

I've been following Bugaboo, a digi shop and, as many of you already know, they are turning 1!!! They also have a fabulous blog hop going on for the week!! They have challenges everyday with amazing prizes!!! 

I went a head and made some little inchies for their challenges! I found inchies and I've been making them with all my scraps!! Since they have only one day or so to enter and they gave the challenges out already, I will schedule a post for the days my little inches can qualify for. I also have some other standard sized cards to share with you!! 

Just wanted to share an update on things!

Have a great day!

p.s. Here's a great animated video!! Sorta catchy and the end is funny!!

Oh, and this will last until Jan. 31st which is the first challenge with our new DT!!

The New Year and {finally} Some Cards!!

                            Hope you had a fabulous day or stating one!

     Well this is a bit late but Happy New Year!! I hope you had a fun time and a great 2011!! I can't believe all the wonderful people out there who support me so much!! You all are fabulous!!! Now, here are two cards I made a while back but haven't posted yet:

This one I made the day after Christmas! I drew the image and colored it with colored pencils and matted it on some brown cardstock and the whole base is white. I used some left over patterned paper. You see something missing?? Well, I haven't thought of the sentiment yet so I left it there. Any ideas? Would love to hear them!! Oh, and here is the challenge that both are entered in:
 Catch the Bug- Anything Goes.

This next one also is drawn by {me} and matted on brown cardstock, also on white too. So these two are almost the same but I switched some stuff around! That paper is the same left over from before. I'm thinking of not putting a sentiment but still thinking..... This is also the Catch the Bug challenge but I don't think that Inklinkz will let me do it with the same post so......

Also, a little share of a Christmas tag I made for a few of the gifts:

Super simple and that flower is made from paper out of and magazine! Yep, great place to find patterns, especially those home decor ones!

So, I wish you all a fantabulous year filled with all the great stuff you can think of!!

Have a great day {or night!}!!!!
