Challenge # 534 - Aw, Man!

Happy Wednesday, all! The challenge this week is "Aw, Man!" which just means that we want to see those masculine projects. I don't think that needs any more explanation.

And remember, we're not just about cards....you could make a bookmark, layout, pocket page, altered item, tag - any papercraft goes!

This is what I did....

Can't get a whole lot more masculine than that!

If you want more inspiration be sure to 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 # 533 - Books!

Hi!

Isn't it amazing how fast Wednesday's roll around?

I'm (Doni) the hostess for Challenge #533 this week.

January is a good time to curl up with a good book, so this week

I'd like to see anything connected with books or reading.

You could a sentiment with lots of words, or book pages as a background.

I can't read without my glasses, so glasses on your card would work!

Here's what I made:

I used the really cute stamp set called "Our Story" from My Favorite Things.

I made this card and matching bookmark for my cousin who loves to read.

I tried talking her into trying a e-reader ( I Love my Kindle!), however

she says that she just likes the feel of turning the pages in a "real" book!

Here's a quick tip:

When you're trying to figure out what colors to use here's what I do.

Look through your mountains of patterned paper and choose one you like.

Use the colors in the print and they'll be sure to look good together!

Now it's your turn, please link up your project below !
I'm looking forward to seeing your projects and visiting your blogs.

Challenge # 532 - After Christmas is before Christmas

Hi there, it´s Wednesday and time for a brand new Challenge at Little Red Wagon. It's me, Imke - I am your hostess this week and I hope you like my play on words:

" After Christmas if before Christmas ! "

Christmas always comes suddenly and in the end there are not enough greeting cards. That's why I make Christmas cards all year round. I think many of you do the same, so I'm looking forward to your creations. Not just cards, everything about Christmas.

I have reused something on mys card. If you want to know what, hop over to my blog.

Now it's your turn, please link up your project below ! I'm looking forward to seeing your projects and visiting you on your blogs.

Also don´t forget to visit my team mates and looking at their wonderful creations.

Challenge #531 - Have Your Cake and Eat It Too

Happy Wednesday! I'm both thrilled and embarrassed to be this week's hostess at Little Red Wagon. I'm thrilled because it's my turn to host which is always fun. And I'm embarrassed because it's my challenge and I messed up! I had chosen the theme "Have Your Cake and Eat It Too" meaning that I'd like to see any sort of baked goods on your projects - from cakes to cupcakes to muffins, pies and cookies. If it's been in the oven, it's good to go! My last challenge of 2019 was "Snow Much Fun" and even though I created a project for that challenge, I thought it was this week's theme. Ugh! Anyway, I've got a cake box project from January 2012 that I'll share as I simply don't have time to create something new for this week. I'm so sorry!

Here's the project I did create for this week. One of the "ingredients" IS wonderful. And I suppose if his carrot nose was baked in the oven, I could sneak in - but that really is a stretch!!

Please link up your own baked goods projects below. I love sugary treats so am especially excited to see what you create!

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!
