{PIN}spirational Challenge ~May 27, 2014

Hi, everyone! Sorry this post is so late in the day! I should have posted hours ago, I know. Again, sorry. But here is the next challenge from {PIN}spirational Challenges!

The sponsors for this week's challenge are Meljen's Designs and Oak Pond Creations. Make sure to check them out!

Remember, all you must do to be able to participate is to be inspired by the {PIN}spirational photo!

And here it is:

And here is a card I made, as inspired by this adorable cowboy:

This is my Rootin Tootin Cowgirl, saying "Howdy!" I used an image from one of our sponsors, Meljen's Designs, some patterned kraft papers, green twine, Distress Ink in Vintage Photo, Thickers, some eyelet lace, and Liquid Pearls in White Opal.

Thanks for stopping by!

SBS Showcase ~Persephone Lola

Hi, everybody! I have my last showcase of the month to share with you! One more from the Gods in Love Collection! This one is such a sweet image.

I give you Persephone Lola:

 

I had to put this sweet little image on a container for sweets! I created this pillbox with a template and papers from Echo Park. I inked the edges with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink, added Flamingo and Black Liquid Pearls, and some pink lace. I then added all the flowers. The image is colored with Copics. 

Make sure to stop by the SBS Blog to check out more showcases this month! I hope to see you all for next month's showcases! Thanks for stopping by!

Creative Creations Challenge! ~Bingo~

Hello, everybody! I have a fun challenge for you from Creative Creations Challenges today! It's a Bingo challenge! Pick any three in a row to get Bingo and enter the challenge!

The sponsor for this fantastic challenge is Digital Delights by Louby Loo!

Below is the Bingo card. Be sure to check out the full details at the CCC Blog.

 

Any three in a row will do! I went all out and did a full Bingo card! I used every square on the card to create my project. Take a look!

DIY Door Hanger. I used some lace (colored with Lindy's Stamp Gang Cattail Copper Brown mist), the DIY sentiment, a couple of different ribbons to hang it from, flowers colored with LSG Cattail Copper Brown and Tibetan Poppy Teal, and an image I cut out of some Tim Holtz kraft cardstock,. I distressed the tag with some Walnut Stain and Broken China Distress Inks, and used some lace with pearls (colored with Lindy's Stamp Gang Tibetan Poppy Teal), and a couple of kraft cardstocks. I also made something other than a card. So that about covers it! Lol.

 

This challenge was a lot of fun and I hope that you'll stop by Creative Creations Challenges to join in!
