Welcome to our last C.R.A.F.T. Challenge of the year!

 

This week it's Anything Goes!

 

And I opted for... Halloween!

 

 

This cute ghost is Boo Willie from Scrapper's Delights mounted on a printed paper from Pink Petticoat.

 

We have lots of inspiration here on the blog for you, don't forget to have a look and to check if you're a winner from last week!

 

This is also my last challenge for C.R.A.F.T.: after 2 years of fun and exciting challenges I've decided to step down from the team. I'm a bit sad, I'll surely miss my weekly card and post!

 

I want to wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

 

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 343 - New.

Merry Christmas!

 

Even if it's Christmas Eve , we have a new C.R.A.F.T. Challenge for you today and the theme is NEW!

 

This is my card:

 

 

I have thought of someone who is starting a new adventure opening a bakery and chosen this adorable stamp from Scribbles Designs: Bakery. I've colored it with Copics and mounted it on a paper from Dovecraft.

 

We have created very beautiful cards to inspire you: have a look at them here on our challenge blog!

 

And again, I'd like to wish you a very merry Christmas!

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 342 - Thank You.

Welcome to a new C.R.A.F.T. Challenge!

 

This week our theme is "Thank You" and this is my project:

 

 

These tags are from The Cutting Café (Long Sentiments Tags) which I printed on a paper from Pink Petticoat.

Perfect to add to a gift or a bunch of flowers to say "Thank You" to a special person.

This is my card:

 

I've recently subscribed to the new 2 Cute Ink Digital Stamps Club and this was one of November images and my favourite!

The colors for the challenge were perfect to make a card with this adorable little gnome, I only regret I didn't print her bigger!

Papers are from American Crafts and colors are obviously Copics.

With just two weeks to go, there's still time to make some Christmas cards and enter them in our Challenge!

 

It's all about Christmas here at C.R.A.F.T. and we're happy to see what you create!

 

I decided to make some tags for this week:

 

 

I had this super-cute Make it Snappy - Skelekinz Merry Christmas from Bugaboo to work with and I thought it was perfect to make some simple tags.

I -of course - colored them with my Copics.

Although I'm not a creepy person at all, I love this little girl: she's smiling and her skull-shaped baubles are even cute!

 

Can't wait to see what you create in these last weeks before the big day!

This week it's particularly funny:

Inspired by Santa's suit, I made these tags:
