Challenge #866 - Piano Man

This week's challenge has been inspired by Billy Joel's Piano Man - inspired by music. Your project can include a music staff or notes, instruments, song titles and lyrics, etc. And yes, Happy Birthday and Christmas songs/carols work too! 

I was inspired by Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You. 

If you're stuck for ideas, check out the Girlfriends' projects (marked DT) below. Once you're done your project, snap a pic and link up! I'm excited to see what you make!

Thanks to everyone who joined in. this week.  Featured makers, please feel free to grab the badge from the side bar.  We hope to see you back for the new challenge that will be up soon!

Challenge 865 - I See

I'm so glad you checked in here at Little Red Wagon Challenge.  We have a new challenge for you this week, "I See".  I thought it would be fun to create something you can see through.  Some materials you might use would be parchment, transparencies, glassine, acetate and even tulle would work great.  You could even use a window or a door, you just need to see something through it.  

As you can I used vellum on my card and backed the window with vellum and placed a stamped handwriting image.

Please remember, we'd love to see your scrapbook layout, tag, bookmark, altered item, journal page - any papercraft your heart desires!  If you need a little inspiration, be sure to check out the Girlfriends creations.  You can find the link to their blogs on the sidebar.

I can wait to see through your creations this week.

Time for a new challenge for you here at Little Red Wagon.   Itʻs Brenda up this week as hostess and I am asking to see how you will "create your own background". There are many ways you could accomplish this, you could watercolor, smoosch, gel print, ink blending, stencil to name a few...or you could give a new purpose to offcuts like I did.

I hope you will have time to join us this week.  I am looking forward to being inspired by your paper crafted creations.  Be sure to stop in and see the Girlfriends, they may inspire an even different way to create your own background!

Thanks to all who joined us this week.  Thank you not just for sharing your beautiful inspiration, but for helping care for our amazing planet.  The more I see of it, the more awestruck I am by how incredibly beautiful it is.   I was inspired by not only the beautiful cards, but by the recycled objects you used.  Such great ideas.  Here are a few that really stood out for me -
