Challenge #607 - Walking on Sunshine

Welcome to our latest challenge here at Little Red Wagon! With the longest day of the year only just behind us, I certainly have sunshine on the brain. That's why this week's challenge is "Walking on Sunshine"! We'd love to see your creations that have to do with the sun or summer. We're happy to see cards, scrapbook pages, ATCs, bookmarks, tags, home decor - or anything else that you've created along our theme!

I created a card to wish somebody sunnier days ahead. The happy little sun makes me smile so I hope it does the same for the recipient!

The Little Red Wagon Girlfriends will be linking up their "Walking on Sunshine" projects below. We'd love for you to join them! I'll be by through the week to visit your blogs and admire your sun/summertime creations!

Featured Cards - Bits

A big thank you to everyone who used those "bits" up this week. I hope you had as much fun using those bits as I had looking at all your wonderful creations. I whittled my favorites down to these 4 outstanding creations -

Such very creative use of bits on all these cards. Please feel free to use the Featured badge on my blog. You'll find it on the side bar.

Hope you see everyone for our next challenge!

Little Red Wagon #606 - Bits

It's Brenda here today, revealing my tendency to save things. I don't know about you, but try as I might, I get quite a conglomeration of "bits" on my table and in my craft room as the months go on. Sometimes it's extra die cuts, sometimes it's extra digi stamps I've printed, maybe even colored, but failed to use. I often times have extra jewels or sequins and definitely have paper scraps and self created backgrounds galore. I'm hoping you are the same way because I am challenging you to use up your bits, leftovers or extras on your creations for this week. Remember, we love cards, but we also love scrapbook pages, book marks, journal pages...you get the idea.

I try really hard to keep things organized and have a little zipper bag (5"x7") that I keep colored images and dies cuts that have ended up leftovers. Right now, my little bag is stuffed, so that's where I went looking for goodies to make this card. I found everything but the card base and the sequins in my bag.

This was a fast way to create something and use up the extras too. I hope you'll join us this week, I would love to see what you do with your bits. How about popping by to see what the Girlfriends have created for this challenge, I'm sure you will like what they have created.

Challenge # 605 - Make It CAS!

Happy Wednesday, all! This week the challenge is to Make It CAS. (CAS = clean & simple) So, let's see those creations with lots of white (or empty) space, minimal embellishments, clean lines....you know what I'm talking about!

And remember, we're not just about cards. Scrapbook layouts, pocket pages, bookmarks, tags, altered items...any and all other papercrafts are welcome!

This is what I did.....

As you can see, there's lots of empty space and no embellishments and minimal layers....CAS!

Challenge # 603 - Featured Projects

Wow, a lot of FLOWER power out there! Thanks to everyone who participated, you have designed wonderful projects. It's hard to choose from the crowd, but these cards caught my eye in particular:

The Story

One day a group of girlfriends got together to play with their papers, stamps, markers, ribbons, buttons and the rest of their seemingly endless supply of other 'have-to-have' scrapbooking and card making goodies. It was so much fun to talk, share, laugh and create with each other that they decided to create a blog that would motivate, inspire and challenge them on a weekly basis to use some of the supplies they have acquired. They also thought it would be fun to have all the other girlfriends out there join in and share their creations based on the weekly challenges. So, grab your wagon full of goodies (we know you have one!), get creative and have fun!
