Happy New Year and Welcome back for a NEW challenge at Clear it Out Tuesday

Welcome back to Clear it Out Tuesday challenge blog!!! the design team is rested and ready to take on the new challenge ~~ theme is Winter Stash, add a snowflake. The sponsor is Melonheadz Illustrating check out their store lot's of cute digis.  A while back I found a Freebie on the site and had printed it off to use but it sat in my "image" box until I was sorting through the other day and thought wow I have one ready to create with, bonus. I coloured with copics in blues and greens as they go so well together so have a peek at what I made.

What a couple of cuties

Here are my "add a snowflake" to the project 

Finished inside of the card and I added the cute snowman die cut, it seems I've cut a few extra.

What Time is it? It's Challenge Time at Clear it Out Tuesday!!!

Clear it Out Tuesday's crew are back with a NEW challenge!!! The Theme is ONE LAYER and the stash item is ...........Washi Tape.  Many of you are experience in one layer cards but not me, I struggle with them, I just want to pile it on. Now washi tape I normally don't have a clue how to use it, I see so many fabulous cards using it in unusual ways,..just check out what the design team has done with their one layer washi tape cards and you will see what I mean,  The sponsor for the challenge is Melonheadz Illustrating and I used one of the super cute little girl digis.

I scored a frame 1/2 inch around the edge and another scoring 1 inch which framed the image, I added the floral washi tape in between the two score lines, I added three tiny butterflies to the corner. 

A close up of the face and the washi tape I added a pink rhinestone to her barrette.

I did finish the inside of the card but I was in a hurry to take the pictures (as my camera keeps asking me to change the batteries) and it was too blurry to post and I was to lazy to take another picture.

Thanks for stopping by today and I would love to see your one layer card but best of all I want some new ideas on how to use Washi tape.

It’s Challenge Time at Clear it Out Tuesday

Challenge #74 at Clear it Out Tuesday is a colour challenge and the colour is YELLOW and the stash item is Yellow things. The sponsor is Melon Headz Illustrating. I picked a Super Hero image to use for the challenge, because it was a yellow challenge I picked one that looked like Flash, I knew I could use yellow on him, I did google a picture so I had the colours in the right places. And here he is……

I got a little carried away with the sizing of the image but he did fit on the A2 card base. My stash items are the yellow stars and yellow rickrack on the inside. The patterned paper is from McMahon and I got it almost a couple of years ago and knew it was perfect for my little superhero.

Close up of the cute image.

Inside of the card and note the awesome watermark Samantha made for us.
Thanks for stopping by today and check out the blog for the rules and don’t forget to look at what the rest of the design team members have made.

It’s Challenge Time again at Clear it Out Tuesday!!!

Hello family, friends and followers, if you live on the Eastern seaboard I hope you have battened down the hatches, looks like a good storm approaching. Now you will have time to join us at Clear it Out Tuesday for our NEW challenge, the theme is Thank you and the stash item is Stitching real or faux. the sponsor for the challenge is Melonheadz Illustrating.  I chose the girl in the polka dot dress for my project and I hunted down my sewing machine  to do a feather stitch around the image and the patterned paper layer. The most difficult part was threading the needle oh yes finding the box of thread spools.  Here is my finished card.

I used the sketch from Cheerful Sketches which ends later today.

This shows the real stitching on both pieces.

The flowers on the corner are from my stash and added the green rhinestones both flowers and gems are ancient.
I would like to add this to this challenge:

It’s Tuesday and time for a NEW Challenge at CIOT

Oh my where is the time going to? It is only 10 days to the big day. I’m not ready are you? I’m still working on Christmas cards, I made them for the design teams, I make them when I see a great sketch or get a new stamp I even make them in my sleep and nothing to show for it in the morning.  On to the challenge, it’s a favourite Anything Goes stash Anything goes. So check Clear it Out Tuesday’s blog for all the rules and have a peek at what the design team has done. Two sponsors for the challenge Melonheadz and Digital Delights

. 

The image I used was from Melonheadz and it was a free image I got to play with for the challenge. I used Stella Say’s Sketch #221 at Catch the Bug challenge Blog.

 

Super cute little elf, coloured with copics and layered on green and a die cut I found in the scrap box, how’s that for clearing it out.

Using the top note from sizzix I cut the sentiment layer and used a scrap left over from the patterned paper on the front.

Challenges I would like to enter this in:

Who’s Crazy for Polka dots? The Clear it Out Crew!!!

Challenge  #45 at Clear it Out Tuesday is Crazy for Polka Dots the stash item is use polka dot papers. The sponsors are Digital Delights and Melonheadz. The image I used for my card is from Melonhead\ and I think it is adorable. Have a look at what I came up with.

First of all these are colours I don’t often put together but when I saw the polka dot paper  it was a given that red and yellow be used. The image was coloured with copics and fussy cut as to show off the background paper. I decided to make this a note card to  give to the owners of the Circus Room which is a restaurant at Walsh Station ON located on the corner of Regional road 10 and Highway 2.4

Here is a close-up of the bear and it shows how I popped him up.

Inside of the note card waiting for me to think of something inspirational to say.
