ATG Challenge at Color It Create It Show It Off--Win some Sherri Baldy images!

We wanted to remind all our friends and followers out there that there is still a Challenge going on at Color It Create It Show It Off until February the 26th.  We always have Anything Goes Challenges so it's open to anything!!  You get a chance to win some of the great images shown on the Challenge site from Sherri Baldy-how great is that!


I chose to use this image from the MB Butterfly Dreams Stitched Love Pocket Letter Kit--Lots of smaller images BUT the great thing about digitals is that you can crop them from the page and make them larger!  With my card, I used this adorable girl in the pretty hat, matted her with some Loden Green grass weave paper, and ran this new ribbon rose mini down the side.  Gals you need to go to HL and get some of this-it comes with 3 rows along the length so with 12" you could conceivably 6 six in. square cards with no problem!  The curl of the rose is real close so I couldn't put in a pearl half so instead I used my liquid pearls to make my pearl dots!  I also put tiny pearls on the flower centers and the buttons down the coat.  Found this perfect striped design paper and stamped a sentiment along the bottom in Colorbox chalk. On the inside I used a floral paper and then one of the sections with the rose.  Then stamped a sentiment from my stash.  I can never have enough Thank You cards!
Please come to our Challenge and you will get so inspired from others and have the chance to do the same for others with YOUR creation!

Color It, Create It, Show It Off Challenge is ALWAYS Anything Goes!

 This is a pleasant reminder that over at Color It, Create It, Show it Off we've still got our Challenge going on here and are just waiting for your entry!
We invite you all to play along with us.  There is a 3 entry limit and our challenge is Always Anything Goes.  It runs from the 1st of the month until the 29th of the month and the winners are announced on the last day of that month.
This card features an image of Sherri Baldy's known as Img 920 and can be found in Sherri's Shop here.  I LOVE  the soft colors I used on her-to me she always seemed to be ready to sit or lean up against a wall or box, something like that.  So, I created with Copics a stone wall.  Used a beautiful blue and brown paisley print paper and accented it with some blue & white baker's twine, tied with a silver dragonfly charm.

 Perfect for the Friendship card! On the inside liner, I combined a fishtail banner with a stamped sentiment on it against the paisley backdrop.  Wouldn't you just love to get this in the mail?
Be sure and join us for some fun and prizes on our Challenge page!  Can't wait to see what you come up with at Color it, Create it, Show it Off

Snowflakes are Blowing at Color It Create It Show It Off w/ Sherri Baldy's Images

 What a great way to start out the New Year than with a New Challenge at Color It Create It Show It Off!   We are using Sherri Baldy images and this one, that is perfect for any Winter Occasion, is called Img 911 and can be found here in the store.  Done in Pinks and Grays, I added my favorite "go-to" for snowflakes, White Chunky Frantage.  I then mounted her on some glittery ornament paper pack called Silver Bells by KaiserCraft (as is the blue silver foil background paper.  I wrapped the card front with some snowball fiber and added some clear dew drops.
On the inside liner, I kept it pretty simple, using a weathered wood look in soft blue.  Added a
Merry Christmas sentiment that was already pre-printed in the Kaisercraft pkt.  Wonderful to have all the accents you need in one place!

Reminder: ATG Sherri Ann Baldy's Month long Challenge over at Color It, Create It, Show it Off

 There are so many Christmas images in Sherri Ann Baldy's shop, and many have made it onto MY cards this year, that you will have trouble deciding which is your favorite!  I created this one for Color It, Create It, Show it Off  using  "Img 454" and it is perfect with her deer antlers headband!  I used some double-sided papers from my stash and then wrapped the pretty card in a rich red organza ribbon and attached a silver Christmas Tree charm.  I also used a beautiful holly leaf swirl die cut from a dear friend in New Zealand-what a treat!
When I looked at this image, I thought-black velvet dress so hopefully I achieved that look.  I felt like she would be dressy, going to a party or a Christmas Concert.  Some white flower soft sprinkled on the fur on her dress give some dimension.
On the inside liner, I used another  Graphic 45 paper-I think it was meant to be cut apart and used separately but I like the look of it all together.  A wonderful sentiment stamped for the inside from the great group KKS finishes it off. 
As a reminder, there is still a Challenge here.  Our challenge runs from the 1st day of the Month and ends the end of the day on the 29th, and our winners are announced on the last day of the month. You can check the prizes out -the images are amazing.

For this card , I used Image 460 and I just love all the winter images that Sherri Baldy has in her store here.  I colored her in copics, added some white chunky Frantage Embossing Enamel for the snow, added some Memory Box Dies and frosted white pearls--Voila! a Snow Storm! On the inside of the card,I used a hazy snowflake scene with a matted Christmas Sentiment.

It's Anything Goes with Sherri Baldy Images-Monthly Challenge at Color It, Creat It, and Show It Off!

 I just love the Fall colors that I used with this image from Sherri Baldy and it's a perfect theme for a Thanksgiving Day card!  It's Img0061 from her store here and while I imagine that she's loving some hot coffee in the morning, for me it would be a large cup of hot chocolate!  This is my first card for the Sherri Baldy group, Color It, Create It, Show It Off Challenge and it's a month long event that I would love for you to join us in!
I double matted her colored image and then used the fall leaves paper from my stash.  Down at the bottom right corner, I used a burgundy colored sticker that says "Thankful" and then mounted 2 glittered metal fall leaves on either side.  On the inside, I used this glorious rich red paper with muted leaves, and swirly script sentiments all over it.  Found this perfect transparent sticker that says GIVE THANKS.  I can't wait to send it to a close friend.
Please come join us for our Challenge-we don't use the Random Generator for this--the DT votes on the winners which I think makes it much more personal!  The Winner gets a gift of 4 Sherri Baldy images and each of the 3 runner ups get 1 free image-how great is that!!!  See you there!
