ABC Christmas Challenge.....

Hello everyone! I am going to try my hand at entering another challenge! I know there are SO many out there and I'm terrible for remembering to enter my cards that I make into them, so that is one of my Resolutions this year...to try to enter more challenges! My other resolution is to try to comment on everyone who comments on my blog!!! Phew!!!!  Let's hope I can do it!!!!

This week at ABC Christmas Challenge, they are on the letter Z & the challenge is ZINGY colours! I hope these are zingy enough!!!  The image is from High Hopes (THINK she is called Holly Fairy, but not 100% sure!) - have had her for a long time, and this year I finally inked up some of my old rubber! I'd gotten so lost in digis for awhile there, that my rubber was collecting dust!! LOL  I think she is beautiful!!!  The CS is Riding Hood Red and the DP is from a paper pack from Basic Grey called Nordic Holiday.  The Holly leaves I bought from an Etsy store & just added bright red dew drops for the berries.  The twill tape is from Martha Stewart that I've had forever!  Not even sure she sells it anymore! 




Thanks for popping by!! Wish me luck!!!! 
Hugs,
Chris

Simon Says....ANYTHING GOES!!!



Photobucket

This week, our challenge for you is ANYTHING GOES!!!!


Here is my project.It is a pocket calendar that I revamped for a colleague for our Secret Santa activity at school. She loves to bake, so I chose a cupcake themed calendar & made the image match the insides.

Here is the front of the calendar:

and the inside (purchased from Michaels for $1.50)
I decorated the cover then slipped it back into the plastic sleeve to protect it)


I have used CUPPIE, a rubber stamp from CC Designs.  I used my oval Nestabilities and Copics to colour the image.  The DP is from SU - not sure the pack as it was my very last piece, but it is sort of a tangerine colour - very pretty! The glittery letters are from the Dollar Store!

Now...... head to the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog to check out all the gorgeous creations from our FANTABULOUS Design Team!!!!

As usual Heidi will be giving one lucky entrant a $50 voucher to her FANTASTIC Simon Says Stamp Superstore!! For fabulous tutorials, inspiration and candy you should keep an eye on the Simon Says Stamp Blog too!!

I am also entering this into the TOP TIP TUESDAY challenge which is Anything Goes as well!!!

Chris
