Open-Minded Crafting Fun Challenge #10 - Thanks / Thanksgiving / Thank You

Good morning everyone and Happy 10th of October! Today is the start of the October Challenge #10 at Open-Minded Crafting Fun. This month we would like to see some Thanks, Thank You, even Thanksgiving cards.  We have some amazing sponsors this month.. as we do each month :)  Our sponsors for Challenge #10 are:



Please be sure to visit the fantastic sponsors and show them some love. Where would we be without our wonderful artists? And thank you sponsors for sponsoring with Open-Minded Crafting Fun. We truly appreciate you and all you do for our crafting community.

Wow.. it has been a while since I've been able to craft or post or anything. Working 60+ hours a week will do that to you I guess. I did manage to get this finished this month:








I have used Owl Bet It's Fall from The Stamping Boutique. I printed the image on kraft and conored with my Prismacolor Pencils. I used My Favorite Things die cuts for the shaker part at the bottom, the leaves and the oval around the image. I've added some inking on some parts of the card. Thanks So Much was stamped and then I also added some dew drops. I decorated the inside with additional inking and leaves. Thanks for taking a peak!

Open-Minded Crafting Fun Challenge #6 - Seasons/Holidays

Good morning!! Happy 10th of the month!!  Today is a new challenge over at Open-Minded Crafting Fun. We are on Challenge #6, which has a theme of Seasons/Holidays. You can create anything for any holiday or any season. I can't wait to see what everyone creates! We will hopefully have a wide variety of items!

Our wonderful sponsors for June are:



We love our sponsors!! Please sure to show them the love!! They are so appreciated for all they do! Thank you!!

This challenge was a perfect excuse to create a Christmas card :)  So, that is exactly what I did:










For this one I started with my image from DigiStamps4Joy - Nativity Globe. The image was colored using Copic Markers. I did a bit of layering as well. I wanted to create a shaker with it, but then what to do with the shaker. I decided to put it on an easel card. The background of the globe image was created using Distress Ink. I created the snow flakes using Copic Opaque White. I've added some seed beads, star sequins and gold and white sequins on the inside of the shaker. I used some Wink of Stella on the star at the top. I've used all paper scraps. The metal tag says Merry Christmas and I've used some Alcohol inks to color it. I have also added some doodling on the bottom panel. I also doodled "a Savior is Born".  I also added a couple of rhinestone stars there as well. There are some stickers on the sides - the cross and the poinsettia. I added a bit of ribbon as well.

Copic Markers Used:
    • Manger: E31, E35, E37
    • Hay: Y00, Y21, Y32
    • Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11
    • Blanket: E0000, E000, E02
    • Star: Y00, Y11, Y15, Y19
    • Base & Globe: Y00, Y11, Y15, Y19, YR23

He did well.. he only had to have a large incision on one of them. This next week will be busy too. Bailey has Lacrosse conditioning Tuesday through Thursday this week and next week too. After that they begin Lacrosse practices Monday through Friday each week. Kevin has a doctor appointment with the Neurologist on Monday to do a nerve test of some sort.

I'm so excited for the very first Monthly Challenge at Open-Minded Crafting Fun! Our very first challenge starts today. Challenges will start on the 10th of each month. Our first challenge is Something New. So, we want to see new items, new products, anything that is new to you or even a new technique that you've wanted to try, something like that. Make sure you tell us what it is. We will get some awesome ideas from you all like we always do!

We have wonderful sponsors for January and we want to thank you all for the wonderful sponsorship and generosity each of you show:



Unfortunately, Smeared Ink has shut down and they will be missed.

Here is my card for this challenge:








This is New Year Birdie from Doodle Pantry. And for my New, I have done two things... I have made a shaker card.. and I've used one of my dies to do this. I have also used the Spotlight Technique which I have been wanting to try and kept putting it off. This was the perfect opportunity to try it out :)  So, that is exactly what I did. I colored my spotlight sections with my Copic Markers. I've used Spellbinders dies for the circles used as the spotlights. I've used a My Favorite Things die for the circles on the side that make up the shaker part of the card. I've used small glass balls and sequin in the shaker. I've also added three different colors of twine. I've braided some of these. That is it from me! I can't wait to see what you all come up with this month!  The challenge will end on February 9th and the winners and DT Favorites will be posted on February 20th. The next challenge will start on February 10th.

Challenge #166 A Charming Project at MelJen's Designs

Today is a new challenge at Meljen's Designs! We are on Challenge #166 - A Charming Project. So, you need to use a charm on your project. I used a couple of different images for this one:



I use Snowglobe Plus Decorations for my base. I also used the bell and the holly on the side. I made a shaker box with the globe. I colored the image with Copic and popped the tail, the ball and the foot. I used my snow maker and made some snow at the bottom. I used the tinsel to go around the outside of the globe. I stamped Season's Greetings! at the bottom from a Inkadinkado Stamp Set. I added the candy cane charm onto the base.  I stamped the inside of the card with a stamp from the same Inkadinkado Stamp Set.
