Clear it Out Challenge # 47: Color Challenge - Grey

Happy Tuesday fellow crafters!

  It's time for another challenge over at Clear it Out Challenges!

The goal with these challenges is to clear out your stash, you know the stuff you've been holding on it, or things that you just don't know what to do with? As well as have fun!

This weeks challenge:

Theme: COLOR CHALLENGE - GREY

Stash: GREY THINGS

Our sponsor this week is:

Lacy Sunshine

So this week, I used their sweet little image called "Zoot Suit Jamie" and you can find him HERE!

 

I thought zoot suit, grey, PERFECT MATCH! Plus it gave me an excuse to create a male card, which I find are the HARDEST to make because you can't make them to frou frou! HeHe! I used my trusty Spectrum Noir markets to color in this sweet little boy. From my stash I used the grey metal embellishments and topped them off with red card candi!

If you need some inspiration for this challenge head on over to Clear it Out Challenges to check out what the other team members came up with as well! Now it's your turn! Join in the fun and don't forget to link your project to Clear It Out Challenges # 47: Grey ! You have until October 6th to enter!

So here is my project for the week:

 

 

Since Halloween is the next holiday coming up... I decided to make a Halloween Card! How cute is this little witch? The green and black papers are from a Halloween Stack by MAMBI and the purple paper is just from my stash. The image was of course colored in with my Spectrum Noirs! The glittery part of her dress and shoes were colored in with a stardust pen.

I have a friend of mine whose birthday is very close to Christmas time, so I decided to make her birthday card a winter theme. This bird was my first project that I used my NEW Spectrum Noir colored pencils on! Yes, I have expanded my Spectrum Noir collection to include the colored pencils. I invested in all the different sets, and so far I JUST LOVE THEM. My alcohol markers are my staple, go to, favorite thing in my hobby room so I figured I would give the colored pencils a try as well. They are great and I highly recommend them! I used Glossy Accents on the little berries hanging from the tree.

Welcome back friends!

Since it's Saturday, you know what that means... another challenge at Hiding in my Craftroom of course!

 It's that time when we dig into our scraps to create a project! YES friends, this weeks challenge is Super Scrap Saturday!

Our sponsor this week is:

 

So here is my project for the week:

 

The spider image and sentiment came from Digi Digi Doodle. This paper came from MAMBI Halloween stack, I just love the orange color! I thought it might look cool to do progressing colors for the little spiders. The black circles are from my scraps and were just the perfect size for this project! I used grey and black twine on the side and put a little metal swirl in the center in order to hold the sentiment!

Clear It Out Challenge # 44 - Fancy Folds

Happy Tuesday fellow crafters!

As I stated previously, I have been accepted as a DT member at Clear it Out Challenges! WOO HOO!

So expect to see some fun and exciting challenges on Tuesdays.

With these challenges not only do you have "challenge" you also get to clear some miscellous items out of your stash! Hence the name!

This week our challenge is: FANCY FOLDS

and from your stash use: PUNCHES/DIE CUTS

Our sponsor this week is StampArt Design by Kathryne:

 

The prize is: 5 digis!

So this week, I used their wonderful image titled "Alanah"! You can find this image Here! 

Since the challenge was a Fancy Fold card, I decided to do a Twisted Easel card! This was my first attempt at one, and up until this point I thought they were so difficult but they are actually quite EASY! I used Anja's Squares by Marianne Creatables (die cut) and Cheery Lynn's Fanciful Flourish (die cut). I used my trusty Spectrum Noir markets to color in this sweet little image. I also used a snow pen for the snow and the Stardust pen for the glittery effect on her coat!

HIMCR Challenge # 164: Think Fall

Welcome back friends!

Since it's Saturday, you know what that means... another challenge at Hiding in my Craftroom of course!

 With summer coming to an end (boo!) we are gearing up for fall! So our challenge this week is "Think Fall!" 

Create a project with Fall Colors!

Our sponsor this week is:

 

The giveaway is a $100 in DCWV goodies!

And there will be 3 winners!!!

So here is my project for the week:

 

 

I created this card with dark red paper from Recollections and the Leaves Paper is from a Mat Stack called Autumn Medley by DCWV! It's hard to tell from the picture but the gold leaves are sparkly. It's a GREAT stack from DCWV! This was a new technique that I tried with this card, and since I didn't want to take anything away from it I just added a simple sentiment and VIOLA!
