Crafty Gals Corner Challenge 97 Use a sentiment

Challenge #97- Use a Sentiment 


This week the challenge is Use a Sentiment !


Our sponsor this week is:

Lacy Sunshine
Prize: 3 Digital Images
Here's a bit about our sponsor:
"Heather Valentin  is  creative ,  award winning,  modern-day  fantasy and  whimsical  artist who has displayed a dynamic and vibrant energy while painting professionally for over 18 years.
She  began to express herself creatively through movement at a very young age. 
For many years she studied dance, being drawn to forms that allowed creative self expression, all the while feeling this constant urge to create with her hands. The canvas is now her dance floor where color, beauty and drama are expressed through her every pencil sketch and  brush stroke. Her  subjects vary from fairies, fantasy, mermaids, vampires, dragons, wildlife, abstract and more. She is one who is inspired in a single moment. Her  dreams, moods and the the unfolding beauty of the world around her is what charts her dance for the day. She is most alive when sketching and painting, creating timeless pieces that reflect her heart and soul. Drawing breathes life into her soul- it enables her to reach out and touch lives. This gives her a place in the world one character and painting at a time.
Heather's  artist portfolio  has  expanded to include such  clients  as   Pepsi, Outback Steakhouse, Nabisco, Zephryhils  and can now be found  at Laguna Art, Third Stone Art Gallery and Sausalito Art Galleries, along with commercial and private collections across the globe. "

Today I have a really fun card to share with you. My crafty friend Sara cut out a whole bunch of die cuts for my birthday this year. I'm so excited to finally get to use this special die cut. Together we found the perfect paper from Echo Park Paper Co. called Hello Winter. I'm loving this color scheme and will be using it for our tobogganing scrapbook pages this winter.

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #96 ~ Anything but a Card

This week the challenge is Anything but a Card!

The design team has some amazing projects so please make sure you send them some love. My project is a bookmark. Each year the kids have made different ones for my mom and this year I thought I would send her a special one from me.

I have great memories of attending the community church service full of love and Christmas music. No matter where I am if I hear "Go tell it on a Mountain!" I stop and think of my mom and all the times we have sang that together. Last year my daughter found a version by Pentatonix that is now our favorite version! I'm so excited to have this little Christmas girl from All Dressed up in my collection of digi's.  I hope you find some inspiration from this post.





Our sponsors this week are:




Polkadoodles


Prize: $15 Gift Certificate





Prize: 1 digital image



All Dressed Up

Prize: 2 Digital Images

I would love to add this card to the following challenges:
All Dressed Up Challenge 62  anything goes
All Dressed Up Facebook group celebrations
A Snowflake Promise Challenge 32 seasons

Good Morning friends,

Today is another fantastic day at Tuesday Morning Sketches. I am in full CHRISTMAS swing now. Pulled out my Christmas socks and CD's, enjoyed a nice hot coffee while creating this week's card.

I love this Santa paper from Stampin Up. I found a big enough snippet to use as a card base add some black gems in the bottom corners. I cut out the HO HO HO tag using my cricut explore, black cardstock and red VINYL! I've fallen in love with vinyl again! Added some black twine and now I have one of the nephews cards created in October! (well technically this post isn't published until November 1st but it was done before.)

I would love to play along with the following challenges:
Pixie's Snippet Playground week 253 (used snippets of red, black and the santa paper!)

Good Morning TMS friends! We have another great sketch from Melissa this week. I sure hope you join us! 


Our sponsor this week is Debbie
(prize - Graphic 45 'Twas the Night Before Christmas cling stamp no. 1)
Here's my card & details below.

close up of the shiny corner pieces. I used some shiny silver snowflakes from my Christmas bin and added some purple and teal Inka Gold and then added some shimmer dome stickers from docrafts Papermania. I have never seen any like this before so I had to add them to my collection. So beautiful in person and very hard to photograph.

 Thanks for stopping by!

Be sure to go check out the creations from the TMS DT...
