Remember We're celebrating a Birthday over at Color It Create It Show It Off! Come join us!

Just wanted to remind you all that we are celebrating a Birthday Bash for Color It Create It Show It Off using images created by Sherri Baldy All Month Long!  Through out the month, we have several special colored creations that we want to share with you.  AND we want you to join us and share what are YOUR favorite images from Sherri.
This image I used half way through our celebration is just called Bestie In A Frame.  I love all the flowers that surround the frame and look at all the curls in her hair!  For the Pearls in her hair, I used white liquid pearls.  I wanted to call attention to the CIRCLE shape of the image so I glued it to the front of an A5 card blank and fancy cut around the circle, leaving a hinge.  So the kraft heart printed paper is actually on the inside of the card, with a paper ribbon in pale yellow running through a ribbon glide.  When you lift the flat, you see the Get Well sentiment underneath.  This sweet image will make a great card to perk up your spirits when you're under the weather.  Make sure you come over to the Challenge and place your entry into the mix and Celebrate with the rest of us!

Bingo Challenge over at Crafting When We Can

As this post is after the Thanksgiving Holiday (in the States that is), I hope all my friends had a great Turkey Day with your family and friends.
It's sort-of the launch into the Christmas season and with that in mind, I'm using an image from Devil Cait Designs and the image is called Tracy.  With this Crafting When We Can Challenge, we are to use a Bingo Board.  I'm using Buttons, Animal, and Snowflakes (on the paper).  In addition, I colored her glasses like candy canes, a Cardinal (my fav bird), and accented with striped Graphic 45 papers.  The red velvet ribbon is SO Christmas and the shiny gold ribbon slide really shows it off. On the inside liner, I've used the coordinating textured Cardinal paper and a Christmas sentiment.
Come on over and join in our Challenge.  We'd love to see your creations!

All Dressed Up Stamps and Dilly Beans Stamps are sharing the SPOTLIGHT at Southern Girls Challenge this week!

All Dressed Up Stamps has some great images for us to use at Southern Girls Challenge-this one is called Mirror Mirror and I LOVE it!  Perfect card for that Tween in your life..  Our challenge this week was for something with texture so I chose design paper that has some embossed bling on the birds tail feathers And the addition of some charms to the dressing table and hanging from the buttons. 
I've had these in my stash just waiting to find the chance to use them: perfume atomizer on the table, and a pearl glazed mirror and red nail polish bottle.  A mat of dotted swiss Bazzil frames the image~and I inserted some shiny silver mirrored cardstock in the oval mirror shape. (you can see the computer screen in the reflection).

 I also decided to do another image from one of the other sponsors, Dilly Beans Stamps-they have some great images also!  The one I used is called "Hooter Framed" and such fun!  I mounted the copic colored image with a burlap styled mat.   I framed him in a Memory Box die cut that has a tree insert with green & cream punchie branches for some texture.  The "ribbon" that's got the copper ribbon slide through it is actually the trim edge on the design paper-more and more companys are using pretty trim for their advertising.
 There you go-2 choices of great stamp organizations that will help you come up with some brilliant ideas to enter our 3 week long challenge.  Come check us out and join right in with your creation!
