New Challenge at Aud Sentiments!

It’s time today for another Challenger over at Aud Sentiments!  Please stop by the blog and check out all the wonderful creations the DT has to share today!

For this next challenge we are so lucky to have Just Some Lines. They have the most adorable images.
Here is a little bit about them...

" Just Some Lines is a digital stamp shop where lines bring characters to life. It has over 250 digital stamps for you to choose from with more being added each week. The stamps are drawn by Jehanne, the owner. Jehanne is a self taught artist and a stay at home mum who enjoys drawing whimsical characters."
They are giving the winner $15 USD of digital stamps.

OK, now for the challenge. We want to see the sentiment "Enjoy Your Day" or any other sentiment to make someone smile.

Below is my card using Funky Summer Flamingoes 1 (love this image).   I used glitter paper from DCWV paper stack and PTI Black cardstock.  The sentiment is from Create with TLC, and then I topped it off with mulberry flowers!

There’s Snow Business like Snow Business!!!

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you are enjoying the week long challenges over at Catch the Bug!!  There is still plenty of  time to play along!   Today is a theme challenge and it is plain simple, we need to see some snow!!!!   If only we could cool this heat down just a little bit!!

You can see all of the DT Creations over at Jodie’s blog and of course you can catch all the NR that go with this adorable Christmas Ruby here at the store!

Below is my project, another version of snowman soup using Bobblehead Christmas – Snowman.  I just made a wrapper added the hot cocoa packet little marshmallows and candy canes to finish.  This is a very simple low cost project when you need a little something for larger numbers!

Wednesday of Christmas in July at Bugaboo

Thanks for stopping by today  so I can share with you my card for the sketch challenge!  Below is the sketch first off!

Recycled Christmas Challenge–At CS Designs

Time for another challenge over at CS Designs, and what a fun one it is!

It's time to go through that stash of old Christmas paraphernalia you have been saving and use it to make something brand new. The only rule for this challenge is that you have to use at least one Recycled Christmas item in your project. It can be a bit of old card, ribbon, tinsel, garland, wrapping paper, Christmas ornaments, or even material remnants. Your project is not limited to a card, and can be altered items or anything that fits within the theme of Christmas. This is your chance to be really creative and also be kind to the environment.

Before I show my my projects check out these wonderful creations that are sure to fit the season just right!

Below is my projects for this great challenge.   I used an old Yankee Candle Jar and made some Snowman Soup a perfect gift for anyone.  I topped the card with Bliz one of the latest adorable stamps created by  Chris!

Now on to my projects

:

Now the Snowman soup is my recycled item I could not resist making an elegant Christmas card below using another great sentiment that  I thought would help to finish  this set off perfectly!

 

My projects fit in the below challenges:
