It's A Bunny Quirky Challenge!

It's Quirky Challenge time again! This time round it's Caro's turn to set the Challenge and she would love to see...

An Easter or Spring Creation, which must include something sparkly (Gems, Glitter etc) and to use Punches!
(at least one!)
(oh...not too much then!)

Yay! It's an easy peasy Challenge, sponsored by 'Digital Delights by loubyloo' (which means prizes!) and they kindly sent some of their digi's and sentiments for us on the DT and the GDT to use. So pop over to Quirky Craft's and see what they've all made!

This is Barnaby Bunny along with a 'Happy Easter' banner.

I haven't really coloured Barnaby, just added a bit of pink (Copic) and a bit of pastel blue, Promaker. I've also, decoupaged him up a bit with silicon glue. First a whole Barnaby, then a Barnaby with no arms (ohoo I'm sooo mean!) and then just his feet.

I've used punches by Woodware: Scalloped Oval, flowers, sitting up bunny and the Easter eggs. The sitting bunny came from Hobby Crafts and the Fern leaves from Martha Stewart. I've added Stickles Glitter over the flowers and the edge of the card.

The Easter papers are called Spring Has Sprung. They are from a small set from CardMaking & Paper Craft Magazine, which you can download for free Here (You may have to 'login', well worth it as you'll find other very useful freebie papers and crafting ideas)
Digital Delight's also has a Freebie for you HERE

Camera batteries failed just as I was going to take the inside, so I'll add that later! Now, I've found a few Easter Challenges, most of them come to an end today so I hoping (or shuld that be 'hopping' I can find a few more!

It's A Twisted Quirky Challenge

Hope you've all set your clocks to the right time by now because the next Quirky Crafts Challenge, has started over on the Quirky Craft's Challenge Blog.

It's Diana's turn to set the challenge this time. Her first time and all her own work, so pop over and have a shifters! Unlike my posts there shouldn't be any smelling mistooks!

Now, this is going to be one fun cracker of a challenge! Are you up for it!?! Diane would like to see...

A Twisted Easel Card and/ or A Mother's Day Gift.

Don't forget we like to see all kinds of Craftiness, so that means Atc's, Tags, Altered Art, Scrapbook pages, etc!

This time round our sponsors are
Crafty Ribbons and
The Stamping Boutique

So that means lovely prizes!! (yay!!) Buttons and digis! and of course a chance to be on the GDT with us Quirky lot! (or not!)
Here's mine... 'O...k??' I can here you say slowly...Where's that empty box from the last post? It's hidden, gone... Nah, it's still there, covered very carefully (but don't look too closely!) with Pink Petticoat Vintage Rose papers. I'm really into recycling at the moment! This is my very first Twisted Easel card! So if I can do it, you can do it!!
But if not, Here's a YouTube link. and here's another one.
I've used the Carousel horse from our sponsors, The Stamping Boutique coloured with Promakers and 3D-ed over another image of the horse, (so you can still see the fiddly bits) which I'd printed onto pale pink spotted Pink Petticoat Vintage Rose Papers. (A free paper pack come with Quick Card Made Easy last month) The card is actually fixed to the box with non-permanent snail glue, (tape runner) so should pull off easily. I've used Woodware punches, the swirls are my new Tim Holtz die-cut. (Yay!) I've only attached these at the front so they can be moved when the card closes. Everything else is from stash. My winning ribbons from Crafty Ribbons haven't come yet, otherwise I would've use them! (My Alice DT card won a prize!)
The little oval sentiment I did on the computer, is fixed to a tiny fold of card so it can lie flat when the card is folded down. The font is a freebie it's called Amazone BT, you might already have it as a given on your laptop, but if not you can download it HERE. And for loads of Free fonts go here (but you'll have to look up the name...start with the A's!)
Mothering Sunday, over here in England, isn't until April 3rd this year (May 8th USA) so there's plenty of time to have a go at the challenge!! There's loads on things you can come up with, just let your imagination take over!!
Oh yes, the Chocolate Brownies hubby made yesterday??!! They're inside of course!! (Well....not all of them!!)
Thank you for stopping by!!

Another 'I'm Late!' Quirky Card!

 

 

Oh My Goodiness! It'll soon be time for a 500 followers freebie!! (Blogger keeps changing his mind tho, he's not very good at counting) In the meantime, I forgot all about showing you that other DT card I did for lQuirky Crafts last week! Here it is. We're doing Alice In Wonderland and there's still a whole week left to join in. Anything connected to The story would be fabulous! I've used this cute birthday bunny (white Rabbit, un-birthday cake) from our sponsorsThe Stamping Boutique 

I've done a bit of 3D-ing, used my nesties to cut out the first bunny with it's background and fixed another bunny over the top. So that's two bunnies, and if you blink there'll probably be another two! (bunnies are like that!) I've coloured him with ProMarkers.

Freebies! The backing paper's I've used are called 'Time For Tea' They were free with Quick Cards Made Easy last year (years back) but you can download them from CardMaking & PaperCraft download page, now called Gather. There's teapots and cake, just right for A Very Merry UnBirthday.

I printed these out on 160gsm white paper, with my printer running out of ink, and they still turned out really nice I think! The flower was printed on thinner paper and crunched up. I did the sentiment on the computer. (You can never have too much cake!) The font is a freebie too. (The ink just about gave out!) I'm sure I've already linked it. It's called Pea Faye. I'm sure you'll find it if you google the name. You'll love it, as the brackets make these funny little bee's and the $ sign is a happy face and I think the + is a heart. (Click the pictures to make them bigger) New Followers! Hi and a (((big wave)))) to Diane Rivers and Ikesart, no links but here's Ikes World Lovely cards, pop over and say hi! I did have some Challenges for this card but seeing it's a week late getting posted, I'll check them out first! Bye For Now!

Off With His Quirky Head!

Or maybe not!! It would be a bit messy! But it's a good clue to the theme of the new challenge, which has already started over on The Quirky Craft's Challenge Blog It should get your brain juices thinking hard (mine shrivelled up and still hasn't quite recovered yet! but no one will notice!) This time the new Challenge is being sponsored by...dah dah dah daaaaah!!

**The Stamp Boutique**

The winner will receive 5 digital stamps of their choice from Tracey's Boutique!

Well, what's the challenge then? Oh yes, I forgot!! This fortnights challenge over on Quirky Crafts has been set by Cazzy and the theme is...

Alice In Wonderland!

I'm sure even those of you who have never read the book or seen the cartoon or even the films, still know the basic story. Girl, sees a white talking rabbit (with watch) follows it, (as you would) falls down a very deep hole (survives) and meets all kinds of weird people and very strange animals... (sounds like my every day life!) Some freebie Alice images can be found HERE. Can't be made any bigger but they are fun to play with!
So what we'd like to see in your crafty makes this time is something you'd find in the story. A white rabbit... a watch, a smiley cat or a Mad Hatter! Teapots, mice, caterpillars, turtles or even a Jabberwocky!
Now, I've made two DT cards for this challenge. One using an image from our lovely sponsors (That's a rabbit too!) and this one using the White Rabbit cartoon image you can buy from Bugaboo. I'll show you the other card when I've finished it!
The backing paper was a freebie, (some time ago) from the Simply Cards and PaperCraft Magazine.
I made the Drink Me bottle and the paint brush and my own back ground scene, then coloured everything using Promakers. The flowers where punched out of scraps of white papers, which had been half coloured red (They painted the white roses red in the story) There's a dollop of red Stickles glitter on the 'roses' too and some fine micro glitter on the white rabbit's bow-tie. The rabbit was printed out twice, and the second one fixed over the first to give him a 3D affect. (effect?)
The key was a brad (by Woodware) but I cut it's legs off (ouch, cruel beast!) and used a bit of florist's wire to attach it to the sentiment.
The font is a freebie, GoodDog Cool. There's a link on the post below this one to where you can download it, along with GoodDog.
Please pop over to the Challenge Blog and have a look at what the rest of the Design Team have come up with, including of course the fabulous make from our Guest designer!
Thanks for stopping by!

Quirky Spots and Stripes! With Embossing.

The new challenge has started over on the Quirky Crafts Challenge blog! This time round it's...

Spots, Stripes and Embossing!!

A nice and easy challenge, which was set by me! I was soooo engrossed in doing that and double checking the spelling, I forgot all about doing my own post!! So, here it is...a bit late. This time we're being sponsored (which means prizes!!) by the lovely...

**Crafty Ribbons**

The lucky Design Team Choice Winner, will receive not only a selection of gorgeous spotty polka dot ribbons, but also a selection of these lovely striped ribbons and some lovely buttons too!! Our second sponsor is none other that yours truly...

Spyder's Other Corner

I will give the winner of the Public Voting a choice of any 5 digis! (More in store very shorty if not sooner!) So, what d'you have to do?! Simply make anything crafty that will fit into this 'Spots, Stripes and Embossing Challenge.'
Easy!
I've made two cards this time. This is my first. I'll blog about the other one later. I've made a pocket card using Forever Friends Double sided Christmas paper. Tiny spots and little stripes on red. I've cut the A4 sheet so I have a piece measuring 4½" x just over 11" and scored at approx 3½ and 8½, the smaller flap tucks up to form the pocket. Folded strips of paper form the gutter at the sides so it will hold a gift. In this case a few stamped images. The closing flap doesn't have to have acetate added, you can always lower the topper so the card is supported. More Pocket Cards Here (Made with12x12 )
I've 3D-ed and embossed the Forever Friend Stamped Bear about four times, once including the heart (Black ink and clear embossing power) coloured him in with Promarkers, cut him out and fixed him together with silicone glue. I've used my Nestabilities (Large Deckled Rectangles, which are also embossed) to make the topper and used silicon glue once again to fix it to the card. I've added embossed acetate a long the bottom of the card, mainly to help it stand up. The acetate is nice and thick as it was once a Promarkers packet! (The flat side not the bumpy side!) The little Forever Friends bear inside was leftover from another card I made in the week. I haven't added a sentiment yet, but it will probably be, 'Just For You.' I've also added a black shaped heart to hide the brad hearts prongs (or legs) Think it still needs something on the inside.. and when I can decide what it is, I'll add another picture!

There's Something Quirking In The Garden...

It's that time for the Quirky Craft's fort-nightly challenge again and beagle eyed, I mean eagle eyed peoples will notice that someone's been doing a spot of redecorating over on the Quirky Challenge Blog so it's all looking good! This time round Cazzy has set us the task of using...

Pink & Green with the theme of 'In The Spring Garden!'
Plus using...

Digital images and papers from the one and only
(no I'm not going to sing the song again...)

Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps.

So that means prizes!!

You don't have to use Stitchy's digi's, you can use whatever you like, as long as you stick to the theme of a Spring Garden and use the colours pink and green!
Here's my card I've used Love Blooms digital papers. It comes in different shades of pink (great for Valentines next month!) and Flower Fantasy Digi Image. Both are by Floppy Latte
and both can be found over in the Stitchy Bear Store.

For some reason, I wanted to use a black card, but did I have one? No, so I cheated a little and coloured the edge of the card with a black Promaker, and being a pearl card, the Promaker didn't bleed through.
I then used Pink Petticoat dotty papers in Pistachio green and covered those in the lovely pink by Floppy Latte, but not before I put both the paper and the image into My Craft Studio and had a little 'play' (I like doing that)
The tiny leaves at the bottom of the image, which are normally a lot bigger, come from Free Digital Scrapbooking. They originally were going to be my 'green' but I thought I should add a bit more!
Anyway, once I got everything near enough where I wanted them I printed the whole lot out together, then coloured the flower the Fairy is standing on with a pink Promaker, added a paper flower, leaves, ferns and of course... what you'll always find in my garden, a couple a frogs! They are actually stamped out of Photo paper, which had been coloured with the black Promaker so they stay shiny. I originally printed it all out on Photo Paper but then changed my mind and printed on 160gsm paper instead.
It's probably a bit too early for a butterfly but this one comes from Papermania Vinyls. I like them, because they're easy to take off again and they're a little bit glittery. I've fixed the butterfly onto acetate, so I could bend the wings back. Apart from adding Stickles glitter, that's about it! Over to you!! Go and join in!

It's A New Quirky Challenge!

Quirky Craft's fortnightly challenges have started up again! This week we have some lovely Guest Designers showing you their fabulous makes. Claire Easson's pretty new baby card. Ali's (Aqualeiga's Escape) funky Happy New Year Card and Denise's Beautiful Day 2011 calendar! So please pop over and have a peek!

This New Challenge, first of the New Year, has been set by the lovely Caro

New Beginnings

You can take that in any way you want. Your project can be about something new, the New Year, (Of course) a new baby, a new home, a new job, new engagement, in fact anything NEW or a celebration of something new. (Maybe not the new socks you had for Christmas... but on second thoughts, that would fit in!) And as it's the first challenge of the New Year you can also use any of your new crafting stash, but be sure to tell us what the new items you've used are. (see I told you it was easy!)

Here's my DT card. I've gone for New Home. All the papers I've used are new and are by Forever Friends. I've cut them with my new pink maxi guillotine and my new deckled edged Nesties. I also won some clear stamps, some Promakers and a £10 voucher just before Christmas, so have used this cute kitty, Molly Cat with Bird House from The Crafty Pad Stamp Designs. (Thank you!!) I 3D-ed the kitty, bird house and bird and coloured them with the new Promakers! (I bought a few more Promakers with the voucher)
The sentiment was done on the computer. The font is a freebie, it's called MTF PlayTime, and it's from Miss TiinaFonts, (Link is always on side bar) So, all you have to do now is pop over to the...

Quirky Crafts Challenge blog

and join in!! Thank you for stopping by!

It's A Quirky old World

The New Challenge has started over on

Quirky Craft's Challenge Blog

(a wee bit late... but you don't want to hear how I messed up my card do you?! No!) This fortnight's Challenge was set by Caro, and she has chosen...

'Around the World!'

Caro says, feel free to interpret this in anyway you chose...travel, Bon Voyage, anything from a different country etc and seeing it's coming up to Christmas we don't mind seeing a few penguins or polar bears! (In my case, it's usually pink elephants!) We all look forward to seeing what you come up with. Don't forget this is a mixed media challenge, so any craft project can be submitted as long as it can be interpreted as... Around The World!

In a way, I'm quite glad I messed up my first card, because if I hadn't, I wouldn't've made this one! And this one is sooo much better! All the papers I've used are by Kiss This Designs, which I downloaded as a freebie last year. The image of course comes from the fabulous Mo Mannings I used two Woodward punches to make the 'Luck' sign, which I fixed onto acetate just to give it a bit more body. I've used Promarker to colour and dusted loads of micro fine glitter wherever it would stick...but I'm now thinking I might add a bit more Stickles Glitter too! New Follower Margaret Jones (((Hi and a Big Wave!!))) Thank you for following!

It's Not All Quirky Black & White...

It's Cazzy's turn to set the Challenge this time, and no, it's not all black and white over on Quirky Craft's Challenge Blog this time round, it's...

black, white and one other accent colour...

plus

use one or more punches!!
(oho, take that! ouch!)

Here's my DT card. I've left off the sentiment so I can change it into whatever whenever, but most likely a birthday card.
I used DoveCraft Papers, Stickles Glitter, and stuff from my stash, The Glittered black butterfly was fixed to acetate first and then adhered to the card with silicone glue.
As you can see by the picture, I've gone a bit mad with the magenta. This I added by colouring some white card with my oldest and favourite colour Promaker pen, (maybe I should have used the paler pink?) then used my Martha Stewart lace punch. I also touched up the pink that was already on the papers. Plus a few flowers I made using Woodware punches, they have velum centres (covered with Stickles) That's about all I can add to this card, I think!

Pop over to see who you picked as overall winner via the voting! (that doesn't mean they've won an overall!) We on the team decided to choose a winner too, just for its real 'Quirkiness' !!

Now, here's a challenge for you! How many different punches do you think I used in the end???

Answers on a postcard please...no, honest...have a guess... email me on dragonsmoore at goolemail dot com or leave a comment. I did have a few challenges for this card but, sawdust brain here has left her little note book at home, so I'll add them later! Now it's time to walk those darn doggies again!!

Quirky Challenge: It's My Sketch!

Yep, it's my turn this time round to set the challenge over on Quirky Crafts Challenge Blog. This fortnight we'd love you to join us in our Crafty Quirkiness and use a sketch.

It's nice and easy, so we look forward to seeing Hundreds of entries!! (or I'll sulk and stamp my foot)
We'd love to see anything crafty, a card, scrapbook page, tag, fat page, altered art, ATC, or even Inchies, if you think you can!

Quirky Crafts Sketch

Sunday 7th Nov- Saturday 2oth

See, told you it was easy! Feel free to rotate the sketch, add bits, invert it or use it in any way you wish, fold it in a cone and put chips in it if you like, just so long as we can still see the sketch within your work!
We're also looking for some new DT members. Someone who has a blog, who can make a card/scrapbook page or anything crafty, every two weeks and take a reasonable picture, is really all you have to be able to do! Easy! (We don't do hard coz we can't!) If you don't think you could manage every two weeks but would still like to give it a go, why not think about becoming a Guess Designer. All you have to do, is join in this sketch challenge (as many times as you wish) and add either DT or GDT to your name in MR Linky or send the Quirky Team an email and we'll get back to you! Simples! Of course, sometimes we have sponsors for our challenges and they send us their goodies to use, obviously you'll also be sent the same goodies to use too!

That's enough blurb! Here's my card.
First I took a square card a chopped about an inch off it. Covered it first in the blue side of Forever Friends 'Gift Wrapped' A4 Double-sided Cardstock (240gsm) and then the dotty side and inked the edges. Then I did the same thing with the smaller rectangle, only this time, used the stripes, added white brads and fixed on with 3D foam pads and silicone glue. Both the circles were cut from Woodware Punches.
I then stamped and cut out the little 'Padded Paws', Animal Ark (by DoCrafts) clear stamp image and coloured it with ProMakers and also 3D-ed the balloon. At one time thought about doing a spot of paper piecing with the balloon, but once again, changed my mind.
I added Stickles Glitter in Baby Blue, the flowers are from my stash and those tiny gems (I added three) are by Anita's, using a Quickie Glue pen to fix them on.
That's it! Click on the pictures to make them larger as I've scribbled on some of them. I had a suddenly rush of madness and put mock stitching all around the card with a blue gel pen, but....wasn't sure about. But I've ended putting them both on here... what d'you think? (Click the pictures to make them larger) The inside I've left plain with a white scalloped circle to one side ready to write in.
If you fancy having a go at this challenge but haven't got a blog why not email us a picture and we'll add it to the challenge for you! That's it from me, catch you all later! Thanks for stopping by.

Another Quirky Recipe!

Quirky Craft's Challenge has started over on the challenge blog. This fortnight's Challenge is a recipe set by Anne better known as Chocolate Fudge Cake...(ohooo now I'm hungry, I really fancy a Nutella sandwich...and seeing I'm typing this at 1.30 in the morning there's no chance of that!!) right..the challenge is for you to make something crafty, (of course) it can be anything, so long as you follow the recipe, it's okay to add a few more things if you like, (old tyres and hobnailed boots, might not be such a good idea though, keep it simple!)

Recipe
Two different types of gold (ie paper, card, embellishments, ribbon etc)
One patterned paper
One length of ribbon
One stamped image
Colour scheme red and gold

For my Card I've chosen a Forever Friends stamped image, which I received in a swap last year, (coloured with ProMarkers of course!) some Forever Friends paper from their A5 pack, 'Santa's On His Way'. Some gold miri board that has been embossed, a patterned gold card for the base and some gold cord (can't really see it) and a red sentiment ribbon from my stash (which I received from a crafty FaceBook swap some years ago) I've also added red and gold brads and some fern leaves cut from my MS punch and finished off with Stickles Glitter.
That's it! Pop over to see who our favourite was for the last challenge and the lovely project made by our guest designer, Joanna, then come and join in...I'll be back later to fill in a few more things that I've forgotten and add some challenges too! BFN!!
