Here's a little info about them:

Ellephantastic is very honored to sponsor this challenge.
Hi I am Helen. I suffer with CFS/ME & found a few years ago I could no longer work due to my illness.
To give myself something to do (when feeling well) I decided to go back to my roots....crafting!!
I grew up drawing, knitting & 'Cutting & Sticking'
Now I like to do all kinds of paper crafting, card making, altered art, knitting & sewing.
I also design & draw my own digital art.
My fun hobby has unintentionally grown into a li'l crafty business for me which I am loving.
There is nothing I like better than to put a smile on someone's face because of my crafting :0)
You can order & buy a lot of my work from my shop. You can also now buy some crafting products.
Here are the Team's projects:
This challenge ends on March 13th! And the
winner will be announced the 14th along with the next challenge!

The newest and greatest invention... CIRCLES!!!! And colorful too!

Scroll down for current challenge or click HERE!

The long winter days are over for us here but it's still cold! We haven't had much snow, but they say we might have a big one tonight!! Anyone have any free snow?! :D

At our local art store, my dad and I bought two stretched canvases and some Tombo Mono adhesive. I'm hoping  to try out painting but don't be expecting a masterpiece!! Just something fun to do but I haven't even decided what to paint yet but I'll keep you updated on that!

So, as you all probably must be waiting for, a card!!!


Mainly, the circles in the background took the most time on this card! I have these templates for different sizes of circles and colored them in! Stuck a DP on there and later, lots of time thinking. I adhered the DP on and I couldn't think of a sentiment! I was thinking of some small, white letter stickers to spell out something but I didn't have any so... I trimmed off a piece of CD and it look good. I wrote a simple "hello" and colored it. Cut a little triangle off to get a 'banner' look and adhered it on. I watched a video that said that clustering your embellishments would give them more potential so I tried it out! I think it looks pretty good! What do you all think?

Also, added some circles inside with the card but forgot to get a pic of it. I'm also hoping to get a stamp that says "Handmade by Iris" so I can stamp it on the back of all my cards! Any of you out there have any preference for a good, solid ink?
That's all I've got to share today! Have a fabulous one!

p.s. This card goes with ths challenge:

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!!


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:

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!!
