ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE#251 "SQUARE CARDS"

Hello Again!! It's very strange having two posts so close together. I do find it fun to show what I am working on. I hope everyone out there had a great Valentine's Day. I was able to do some crafting, looking at some blogs,read a little facebook and  then watched NASCAR. It was a rather a very relaxing day. I'm also really excited that the races will be on again. These races are great to watch on a Sunday when there is nothing else on.

I'm sure you would like to get to know about this week's challenge. We have Oak Pond Creations sponsoring the square cards challenge. This is always one of the challenges that I love working with. For some reason I find them easier to work on. Oak Pond Creations let me use one of the cutest little animal images. The name of the image is "Benedict Bullfrog." I'm not normally a frog person but he is very cute. I'm sure this is one image that you will want to have. Thank You for letting me use this great image. Since they are sponsoring us here is the prize that they will be giving one lucky winner.

I'm so excited to show you my Benedict Bullfrog. My little bullfrog has some friends in the pond and they are a little happy. Here is my card

I hope you think those frogs are as cute as I do. I really had fun making this one. The gems are called petals. So I used them to kind of look like lily pads. I guess you just have to use your own imagination. Here are the items I used to make Benedict Bullfrog.

Cardstock -- The Paper Studio

Paper -- DCWV and From My Stash

Frog Embellishments & Petals -- Dress It Up

I'm done with this post. Almost sad that I'm at the end already. Remember that all the information for the challenge is at Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog. Our great design team also is displayed there for you to look at and get some inspiration. Well, I hope you all have a great week and I will see you for the next challenge.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE

MONDAY'S MY GRAFICO'S CHALLENGE #119

Welcome Back to our Monday's Challenge. It was nice to have a little break through the holiday's but I'm ready to begin with the new year. I want to make this a good year with my cardmaking and scrapbooking. I had seen someone keep track of how many cards and layouts they made for last year. I am going to try that this year and have a total at the end. It would be nice to see that I can do more year after year.

Here we go for the first challenge of 2012. We worked with the designer Blackleaf Studio's. The set that we worked with is Love and Valentines. It's hard to believe that Valentine's Day will be here before long. The Digital Stamps are very cute. You could use them for other things beside valentine's day. Let me show you these great stamps that we used for this challenge.

If you would like to see this set and other sets from Blackleaf Studio's, please visit Here. You can also see more of Blackleaf Studio's Digital Stamps from this page. You can also see more designer's and their stamps atMy Grafico Arts & Crafts Community.

The Challenge this next two weeks is Love/Valentine's theme. You have until January 20th at midnight. Some of the rules have changed so you will want to go to My Grafico Challenge Blog to see all the rules and how to add your project to the challlenge.

Ok, here is the project that I made from Blackleaf Studio's Digital Stamps.

I hope that you liked the card. This was fun to make. There are other Design Team Members that made their own projects with this Digital Stamp. If you get a chance please visit their blogs and leave them some love. All their blogs are on the right side of my blog. Hope you have a Wonderful Week and I will be back next Monday for a feature project.

Good Luck to you all!!

My Grafico's Monday Challenge # 86

Happy Monday to everyone. I hope everyone is enjoying their weather. We have had rain since last night. Of Course, it thunder and lightening all through the night when your trying to sleep. It was like a Spring storm but it's still winter. The temperature dropped all day and now it's so cold. It's no wonder why everyone is getting sick. We just need Mother Nature to make up her mind. My poor dog even hates the rain. Last night I didn't even realize that it had started raining and when I went to let her in she was soaked. I had to get her a new sweater so she could get warm.

I wanted to remind you of the rules and what you need to know about putting your entries in. You just need to go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/ and everything you want to know will be right there. Even though we have monthly challenges our Design Team will still have a new project to show you every Monday using a different stamp set. This will give you great ideas that we used with one of the Digital Stamp sets. Next month we are thinking about going back to the weekly challenges. So stay tuned to see what the changes may be.

This week I worked with the designer Blackleaf Studios. I used the cute Digital Stamps called Flying High . I had a hard time trying to figure out which image I wanted to use. I had decided to make something different then a card this time. I can't wait for you to see it. So here is the picture of the set that I used.

What a great set for a little boys project or someone that loves airplanes. Now here is the altered item that I decided to make

Now all you have to do is go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/ and enter your project. I wish you all the luck and have fun with it.

My Grafico's Monday Challenge

Happy Monday!! I can't believe it is Monday already. To make it even worse, March is just around the corner. This is going to be another year that flies by before you know it. I remember in High School I thought the days would go slow and I would never make it to graduation and now I wish the days would go slower just so I feel that I have something accomplished. Well I did get something finished. I finished my card for this weeks challenge.

This week I worked with the designer Blackleaf Studios. I used the adorable Digital Stamps called Cupcakes. I had a hard time trying to figure out which image I wanted to use. This is one great set to work with. I can't wait for you to see it. So here is the picture of the set that I used.

These images are great. I think you will have absolutely no problem making several cards from this set. I have more ideas but need to get some other cards finished. I hope that this card will give you some ideas of making your own projects.

MY GRAFICO CHALLENGE #76

Thank You for visiting my blog for another My Grafico Challenge. I wasn't sure if I was going to get my project done for this week. After getting things done last Wednesday I went to print some more things to get some other projects done. My husband said he would print them out for me just let him know what to print. So I had everything ready and he takes the computer and goes to print. He yells at me and wants to know if I heard my cat vomiting. I have 4 cats but this one named Feather has stomach issues and unfortunately vomits at least once a day. Doctors have tried to figure it out but so far no one has. Well I didn't hear him but he decided to vomit in my printer and fried the board. Now I need a new printer. I have to wait for the next check to get one. My husband did purchase me one and it's so great. It's WiFi and I can be in one room and print my project in the other room. I don't have to carry my laptop everywhere with me now. So that's my bad luck story of the week. Enough about my life let's get to this week's challenge that you are going to love.

The challenge this week is Go Girly. We worked with Digital Stamps and Digital Paper. The Stamps are Unicorns and Hearts. How could you not get an idea for a girly project. This week you could make a card, scrapbook layout or any altered item to use for the challenge. Just make sure you use one of the My Grafico FREEBIES on your project. Here's where you need to go to grab your freebie: http://www.mygrafico.com/freebies.

Here's a picture of the Digital Stamps that are designed by Blackleaf Studios. The Digital Papers were designed by Stockberry Studio named Stick Figure Fairies.

 

Here's the Go Girly Card that I made with the Unicorn and Butterfly's

Well all you need to do is go to http://mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/ and read the rules and create your project. I wish you all the luck at winning these Digital Papers and Digital Stamps. Have a Wonderful Wednesday and a Great Thanksgiving Holiday.
