Challenge # 804 - Make It Sew!

Happy Wednesday, all.  This week the challenge is "Make It Sew!" which means we would like to see sewing on your project.  It can be machine sewing, hand sewing, sewing made with a die, faux sewing, patterned paper with stitching on it or it could even be a make about sewing.

And remember, we're not just about cards!  We'd love to see your scrapbook layout, tag, bookmark, journal page, altered item - any papercraft goes!

This is what I did...

I've used a couple of different dies to make "sewing" on my card.  See, it's sew easy!  (:

If you'd like more inspiration, do check out what the other Girlfriends have made.  Then, head on back here and link up your project.

Can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge #801 - I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues

Happy April! In keeping with my Elton John-inspired challenge themes this year, I've chosen "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues" this week. Simply include the colour blue on your project, whether it be a scrapbook page, home décor, a tag, a card, or any other paper craft. 

I made a set of sympathy cards using blue vellum as the background mat. 

Look below for blue inspiration from the rest of the fabulous Little Red Wagon design team (marked with DT). Then, we'd be thrilled for you to link up your project too!

Challenge #800 - All Tied up - use twine, ribbon, thread on your project

Welcome all, it's Brenda here.   This week the challenge is up to me and I'm going with "All Tied Up".  I would love to see your projects tied with ribbon, twine, jute, wire to name a few examples. Here is what I did with a piece of wrinkled ribbon at the top of a tag  -

Easy peasy, right?  I hope you will be able to join us this week.  If it is inspiration that is lacking, visit the Girlfriends to a sure jolt of creativity.  I can't wait to see how you make it " all tied up"!

Featured It's a Fake! Makes

We didn't have too many entries is our last challenge but the ones we had were fantastic!  Here are my faves....

Helen

Allisa Steinlicht

Wonderful cards!  Feel free to take the Featured badge for your blog.

Hope to see everyone back for our next challenge!

Challenge # 799 - It's a Fake!

Happy Wednesday, all.  This week the challenge is "It's a Fake!" which means we want to see those faux items on your project.  It could be die cut stitching, paper that looks like ribbon, Flower Soft masquerading as snow....or something else entirely.  As long as it's not "the real deal" it's in!

And remember, we're not just about cards.  We would love to see your scrapbook layout, journal page, tag, altered item, bookmark - any papercraft goes!

This is what I did...

It's got faux stitching, as well as strategically cut and placed patterned paper pretending to be a background die and those embellishments in the corner aren't enamel dots...it's red mirror paper cut in small circles and stacked for dimension.  See, it's that easy.

If you would like more inspiration, do check out what the Girlfriends have made.  Then, head on back here and link up your project.

Can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge #796 - Tiny Dancer

Welcome to our final February challenge! This week, it's Kate here back with another Elton John-themed challenge: Tiny Dancer. I'm looking for you to use anything tiny/small on your creation. Think mice, ants, tiny embellishments, etc. Or perhaps your creation itself is tiny - like an Artist Trading Card or 3x3 card, etc. 

I created a card with a tiny envelope, a little mouse and a wee heart button embellishment. 

Check out the Girlfriends' projects below (marked DT for Design Team) for more inspiration and then pull out your crafting supplies to join the fun!
