Chi Chi Memories: Spring is in the Air

Good morning!  Today is my DT day at Chi Chi Memories, so I made this sweet Spring card for the following challenges:

Going Grey With Scrap Creations (Bingo - I used flowers, die cuts, and digi image)


I used our May Girl image, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spririts.  Papers are from My Mind's Eye - the pinwheel die is from My Favorite Things and the sentiment is from SRM Stickers. The dragonfly charm is from my stash.  Peace.

ADFD: Fairy Kitty & Emo Quote

Good morning!  It is so. freaking. cold.  With the wind chill, it's like minus 25 out there.  -25!  I am so glad I don't have to go anywhere today.  I'm thinking it's a good day to do some baking or something... I've been dying to try this recipe I have for homemade peppermint patties.  I'll let you know how they come out and will share the link if they're good!

Today I have a card for the following challenges:

 




I used the freebie offered by ADFD, Fairy Kitten, colored with Prismacolor pencils and mineral spirits.  Her wings are covered in Stardust Stickles.  Papers & ribbon are from Stampin' Up!  I kept it pretty simple so I could make the 15-minute deadline for the Speed Craft challenge, but I love how it came out.  That kitty is just too cute, isn't he/she???  :)  

And I have one more card to enter into the following challenges:

The Stamping Boutique: Hearts
Crafting When We Can: Stitching Real or Faux
Jellypark: Love
Stamping Sensations: Anything Goes
ColourQ: Red, Black, & Newsprint


I used Emo Quote from The Stamping Boutique, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and with some red Stickles added in.  I printed out some newsprint DP and used a stencil on gray cardstock to mat my image on.  Ribbon is from Stampin' Up!  I finished it off with some red gemstone stickers.  Peace.

Oddball Art Stamp Challenge: Love

Hello everyone!  OMG - I am SO freaking sick of snow.  I mean, seriously.  Mercy. We give up.  I think this was the 4th week in a row that we got over a foot of snow.  We're buried.  Can't see around corners to pull out of side streets or driveways, it's awful.  Roofs are collapsing.  Today they are worried about power outages.  OY - I want Spring!

OK enough whining - at least being snowed in gives me a good excuse to craft!  Today we have a new challenge for you at:

I would also like to enter this into the following challenges:

I used Big Eye Back to School Geek Girl from Oddball Art Stamps, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I kept it simple, layering her on DP and using a piece of the DT as an embellishment.  emrel.  Peace.

Chi Chi Memories: Deer Friend

Happy Friday!  So I got some sad news today, my friends at Chi Chi Memories are having some personal problems and are unable to keep the blog and DT running right now, so we're going to be taking a break.  But you can still shop at their store and I had this all ready for my post today, so here's my little creation for the following challenges:
I used our new image Cute Deer and kept it simple so I could be quick (for the Speed Craft Challenge).  Papers are from Authentique.  Peace.
