Red Carpet Studio Challenge

Happy Sunday!

It's a combined challenge over at Red Carpet Studio.  This week the Card and Layout Design Teams are in an Anything Goes Challenge.  The theme this week is "Sweet."  Create anything, does not have to be a card or layout, with a sweet theme.  Our inspiration is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. 

Our wonderful sponsor, Vampire Craftin, will give a blog makeover to the winner. 

 

My project...

 



 

 

I created a candy box.  I love ginerbread men, especially since I have a daughter, son, and granddaughter with ginger colored hair...a light golden red.  So beautiful.  Also, our little city has a candy shop. They sell the most wonderful chocolates and my daugther loves their Peanut Butter Meltaways.  So I filled this box with some meltaways for her for Christmas. 

 

 

Head over to Red Carpet Studio Blog and link up your creation. 

 

 

Hope my creation inspires you somehow.

 

Much scrappy love,

 

Tonya

Play Date Cafe Challenge #161

Happy Tuesday!


I am sharing a card with you I created for the PDCC #161.   The challenge is to use the colors Evergreen, Gumdrop, and Candy Cane Red.

I love creating cards with a white base, but I'm a messy crafter.  So they never turn out the way I picture it. 

For my card I used Tim Holtz distress ink Evergreen Bough to stamp the angel, then I applied Perfect Pearls to the image.  I inked the edge of the stamped image card with Distress Ink in Festive Berries (for Candy Cane Red).  And the pearls are a light gumdrop. 

Hope my creation inspires you somehow.

Much scrappy love,


Tonya

I created a card with a Bugaboo Digital.  I imported the digi into Make The Cut and used my marker holder and Silhouette Cameo to draw it.  I also shadowed the image and cut it out with the Cameo.  I colored the image with my Copics.  But wasn't as successful as I would have liked to be.  (I'm still learning).  I still love the was the card turned out. 

Now it's time for you to head on over to Jeannine's blog.

Thank you so much for hopping along with us today, and we all hope that you were filled with loads of Christmas joy, as well as loads of inspiration!

ABC Ransom Blog Hop

Red Carpet Studio Card challenge, click here.

Welcome to the ABC Ransom Blog Hop, 

hosted by Red Carpet Studio!

If you've come from Dawn's blog, you're in the right place.

The Red Carpet Studio designers thought it would be fun to host a mystery blog hop while showcasing projects that can be made using all those leftover letters in your stash - hence where the "ransom" comes in. Ransom notes play a huge role in mystery/suspense films, and are often created out of random letters cut from magazines, newspapers, etc. in order to disguise handwriting. 

While we won't be doing any kidnapping or holding anybody ransom today - we do have some creative projects to share with you!

For my project using leftover letters in my stash, I created...
 

 

...a card.  Looks simple, right?  Not quite.  But I loved creating it!  I used my Silhouette Cameo, pen holder, a Prismacolor Pencil, and a Scraptastical Kreations file.  After drawing the tree and bat, I stickled the bat to make it pop.  I outlined the tree with a gold gel pen to give the card a bit of depth and visual interest.  The label is from another Scraptastical Kreations file.  I distressed it with distress ink, stickled the edges, and added my letters.   I really do not have any letters in my stash.  Don't know why, I just don't.  :-) 

 

Supplies:

Card base

Scraptastical Kreations files: A Haunted Halloween and Label It, Tag It, Frame It

Distress Inks

Stickles

Prismacolor Pencil

Gel Pen

 

We're also holding some blog candy ransom! However, the blog candy is hidden, and only certain stops of the hop are hiding it. The only way you can win is if you comment on those blogs! Now, we're not going to tell you whose blogs those are (that would be too easy) but we will tell you what the prizes are!

Lettering Delights

$20 Gift Certificate

Floppy Latte Digital Designs

$10 Gift Certificate

Freckled Fawn

$10 Gift Certificate

There will be three winners. Please make sure to leave your contact information when commenting so we can contact you if you win. You have until next Saturday, November 3rd, to hop and comment. Winners will be announced with the start of our next layout challenge on Sunday November 4th at Red Carpet Studio.

And don't forget to check out this week's challenge at Red Carpet Studio! Our challenge this week is inspired by "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" and the challenge is to create any fall or Halloween card.

Your next stop is Chas's blog.
