Challenge # 772 - Sympathy

 Hello and welcome back to a brand new challenge. It's me, Imke and I have this theme for you this week:

"Sympathy"

Dying is part of life. Unfortunately the older I get, the more often I need a condolence card. I think a bit of color is always good - but still stylish and appropriate for the occasion. Translated, the saying means: Mourning is loving remembering.

I'm excited to see what you make of it. Sympathy cards are different in every country.



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.

Challenge #771 - Featured project

It seems that last week's Rocket (space or sky) challenge was not a hit. However, Arlene from Sundaystamper Papercrafts made this fabulous card using alcohol inks for the background. Doesn't it look "out of this world"?

Thanks, Arlene, for adding your card to our challenge. Please be sure to grab our badge to post on your blog!

Challenge #771 - Rocket

I'm back with another Def Leppard-inspired challenge. This time, I've chosen the song "Rocket" and I'm looking for anything with space (or even the sky). 

I made a little gift bag with a cute character rocketing through space. 

For inspiration, check out the Girlfriends' projects below (marked DT). I'd be delighted to have you join us as well - and can't wait to visit your blogs to admire your creations.

#770 - Put It in Neutral

It's past time for a new challenge at Little Red Wagon.  This week, it's me, Brenda, asking to see your projects created with primarily neutral colors.  Neutral colors are considered to be "muted shades that appear to lack color".  Examples of neutrals are beige, taupe, gray, cream, brown, black and white.  A little color is good since neutrals complement primary and secondary colors.  As you can see, I've gone with gray, which right now is my favorite neutral.

The sentiment on this card seems very fitting today.  My apologies for being late  I'm going to blame it on all the sawdust I've been inhaling lately...actually I just got distracted and forgot.

I do hope you will still join us this week.  Remember, we love seeing all your paper projects, not just cards.  I look forward to seeing your creations.  Please drop in to see what the Girlfriends have creating if you haven't already.  I know I can't wait to see what they have created.

Of course, this theme cannot be missed in July, right? I know many of you work on Christmas cards all year long - just like me.

Challenge #761 - Women

It's Kate here with my latest Def Leppard-inspired challenge. This time, it's Women. I'm looking for anything feminine. How you interpret this is up to you. Just grab some paper and other crafting supplies and put together a card, a tag, a bookmark, a scrapbook page or anything else you'd like!

I created a card and, as the recipient prefers snowflakes over flowers, I created a soft and feminine happy birthday card for her. 

Looking for inspiration? Check out the Girlfriends' projects below (marked DT for Design Team - or perhaps Delightfully Talented as I've never actually asked), and then link up your own creation! I can't wait to see what you make!
