Challenge # 787 - Merry Christmas

 Hello and welcome back to a brand new and also final Challenge in 2024. It´s me, Imke and here comes the last topic for this year and I am sure you can all join in:

"Merry Christmas"

I think the theme speeks for itself. 

And don´t forget, you can link to anything that fits the topic - not just cards. Link your project below using the Linkytool. And take a look at the works of my girlfriends. They are linked with a "DT" in the name.

We, the entire team, would like to thank you for taking part in our challenges in such large numbers. Thank you for your loyalty. We hope that we will have a lot of fun being creative next year too. To everyone who celebrates Christmas, we wish you happy holidays and a good start to the new year 2025.  There will be no challenge next week, challenges will resume on January 1st.

Challenge #786 - Featured Project

It was great fun seeing all the "action" through last week's "Action" challenge entries. I was especially drawn to Denise's shaker tag.

We hope to see you all back again next week for our last challenge of 2024!

Challenge #786 - Action

This week's challenge is based on another Def Leppard hit. This time, the song is "Action" and I'm looking for action on your creations. Whether your project has moving parts or includes something that typically moves (e.g., a vehicle), we'd love to see it. Even Santa's sleigh moving from one chimney to the next would work!

I created a birthday card using an Action Wobble. Here's a little video showing the action. The background music is, appropriately, "Action" by Def Leppard. 

Please link up your "Action" project below. I can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge #785 - Tag, You're It

It's Brenda here today with a new challenge for you.  Being that it is so near Christmas, I tried to think of something that could be used at Christmas, or something else if you are tired of Christmas making.  I decided to go with Tag, You're It.  I'm looking forward to seeing your tags of any flavor, Christmas or otherwise.  Here are the tags I made using Eric Elf -

We look forward to having you play along.  We would love to see any type of paper craft as long as there is a tag on it.  If you are lacking in inspiration, stop by to see the Girlfrieds, their links are their pictures on the side bar.  

I can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge # 784 - Non-Traditional Winter Holiday!

Happy Wednesday, all.  The challenge this week is Non-Traditional Winter Holiday which means we want to see those holiday cards that have a unique element.  Maybe it's colours not usually associated with that particular holiday, maybe it's a stamp/image that isn't really meant for a holiday, maybe you've used an upcycled or non-crafty item on your project - so many ways you can interpret this one!

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

This is what I did....

I used some non-traditional Christmas colours, along with a gnome digi - but in this case, it's an elf.  (:

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

Can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge #781 - White Lightning

It's our first November challenge and we're starting things off with lightning - White Lightning, that is. In keeping with my Def Leppard-inspired challenges this year, I thought White Lightning would work for anything weather related. 

I made a Christmas card with a snow-embossed background. You can chose any sort of weather to include on your creation.

If you need some more inspiration, please check out the Girlfriends' projects below. They're all marked with DT. Once you've got your project done, we'd love for you to link it up below!

Little Red Wagon Challenge #780 - Sweet Treats

Welcome to a new Little Red Wagon Challenge.  Depending on where in the world you live, today or tomorrow, is Halloween.  Since not everyone participates in Halloween, I tried to pick a topic that could be Halloween or otherwise; Sweet Treats.  For this challenge I would love to see you include sweets on your project.  Any kind of sweets will do for example, candy, cupcakes, brownies, and remember, any type of paper craft will be embraced.  It doesn't have to be a card.  

Here is what I've made -

I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of goodies you share with us this week.  Be sure to stop by and check out the sweets from the Girlfriends, I'm sure they will be delicious!

Challenge # 779 - Emboss It!

Happy Wednesday, all!  This week the challenge is all about embossing!  You can use heat embossing, an embossing folder, use a scoring tool to create embossed-look lines - we'll even accept foiling and letterpress techniques for this challenge.

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

This is what I did.....

I went with a snowflake embossing folder on the patterned paper and a swirly embossing folder on the butterflies.  Also the sentiment is foiled.  (I know it's hard to see here.  I've got a closeup on my personal blog.)

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

 I'm back with another Def Leppard-inspired challenge - Lady Strange. I'm looking for anything unique - a repurposed item, interesting embellishment, etc.

I created some little treat bags for Hallowe'en. Instead of using ribbon or twine for the bows, I used some medical gauze.
