The last Last Challenge for 2013 - What a fabulous Year!

This will be the last challenge of the year at OSAAT and what a cracker! Our theme for a whole month will be 'Anything Goes' and our sponsor is our very own Stitchy Bear Digi Outlet with a prize of all the images that the design team chose to use in Challenge 192.  A runner up prize of $3 to spend in the store goes to the winner of the draw for projects using a non-Stitchy image

Our rules are very simple,

1. You can enter with as many Stitchy Bear images as you wish. But, if you choose to enter with a   non-Stitchy Bear image then you are allowed to enter a maximum of three times. There are hundreds and hundreds to choose from in the Stitchy Bear Digi Outlet. 

2.You must link back to our challenge blog on your blog.

3. No back linking, it must be a new project blogged after our challenge goes live.

You will have until the 12th of January to enter, so plenty of time after Christmas to get your creations uploaded.  

Look at all that lovely crafty stash you've been given at Christmas.

For my card this week I chose this beautiful image by Hope Jacare Doodles called Christmas Dove of Peace.

Isn't it a gorgeous image and I've coloured it with a mixture of Promarkers and Copics. I prefer the grey shades of Copic Markers.  Spellbinders Elegant Labels 4 in red and gold foils surround  the Spellbinders Labels 4 image. I've die cut some Spellbinders Poinsettia and some Cheery Lynn leaves to finish.

Wishing you Joy and Peace at Christmas and may Santa bring you lots of crafting goodies.

Seeing Red Sunday

What a brilliant challenge we have for you this week at the  One Stitch At A Time challenge blog .  It's Seeing Red, brilliant! I love all the colours of Christmas especially red.

Our rules are pretty straightforward,

1. You can enter with as many Stitchy Bear images as you wish. But, if you choose to enter with a   non-Stitchy Bear image then you are allowed to enter a maximum of three times. There are hundreds and hundreds to choose from in the Stitchy Bear Digi Outlet. You must link back to our challenge blog on your blog.

3. No back linking, it must be a new project blogged after our challenge goes live.

Our sponsor this week is Creative Craft World with the top prize of three lovely Promarkers, can you ever have enough Promarkers?

 For my card this week I chose My heart Pieces - Mr & Mrs Claus.  I love Priyanka's images and I'm sure this is Mr Claus kissing his wife 'goodbye' as he  leaves on Christmas Eve to deliver all the presents.

For the background paper I've used one of the pages from Pink Petticoats 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' which is in the Christmas Scripts here. They cost £2 for the script and the type face for Jingle Bells, they are half price at the moment.  I've mounted Mr |& Mrs Claus onto a Spellbinders Postage Stamp square and added a Spellbinders Poinsetia. These are self generated sentiments.

Yay! It's Sunday!

And time for a lovely new challenge at OSAAT. The theme this week is 'Use A Digi'. Our rules are very simple.

For my card this week I've used a sweet owl image from Sentimental Susan and you can find her here 

I couldn't make my mind up what to do with this image so I had a look in Create with TLC as I knew Paulette, the designer would have the perfect sentiment in her shop.

I've used one of the pages from the First Edition Sweet Owl collection as a background. The image has been cut with Spellbinders Ovals and Scalloped Ovals and placed on a Spellbinders Decorative Oval. a Memory Box die takes up the space in the corner.  The sentiment is from a collection by Create with TLC. I'm saving this for my husband as it's our anniversary in a few days time.
