Challenge # 68

HI Everyone! Thanks for stopping by today.

Today's Mygrafico Challenge is a good one this week
we are making ANYTHING BUT A CARD with Halloween sets this week!
First we start off with this Little Witch 1 by Clip Art & Scrap
I love her isn't she sweet & fun to color!

Next we got to play with the Halloween Cuties Digital Paper by Goodness & Fun




Now as I mentioned earlier our Challenge this week is ANYTHING BUT A CARD.

I know a lot of you are making Halloween invites, Cupcake Toppers & Decorations, heck even Costumes!
This is the Challenge for YOU! =D
I want you to enter your fabulous project to our challenge this week and I am going to pick out the top 3 plus a winner & all of you will be able to join us as a Guest DT for the 2nd week of October! WoWzers!
Make sure to mention that in your blog post & make sure you have a link for those who want to join in too!

Ok now for my own Project this week I made a Scrapbook Layout.
 I colored the Little Witch with my Prisma Colored Pencils
used a bunch of Halloween stickers and chipboard accents I have had for awhile now in my stash.
Background paper is my minds eye.

The Chipboard frame is still empty but not for long !
I am using this LO for our family album.

I used the digital papers  & the dreadful font then used the specialty ragged edge scissors.

I put a sticker on some cardstock cut it out and then popped it up ( the bat & moon)
added a chipboard journal spot.

 I popped up a bottle cap glittered it up with stickles,
fall leaf punch on edges & I used the Martha stewart 3 dot scallop edge punch.

Look at her isn't she a beauty!

Ok Now Our Design team has worked hard this week to make you something extra sweet.
Please make sure you stop by their blogs and let them know you liked their projects this week!
Just click on their names to visit their blogs located on the sidebar!

MyGrafico #67

Hello Again!
It is time for another MyGrafico Challenge!
This week the team worked with these 2 stamps...

I just loved  both of these sets .. I was super excited to  get my hands on them and start creating..
Umm but I did leave it this week till the last minute! Yikes..
 I have been so super busy the past few weeks,
 I am hosting a kids craft day every other week on Fridays,
So I have been busy  cleaning my messy house for that...LOL
I also have been trying to work on  getting the yard ready for fall... =P
Next week is  My local MOMs group Garage sale.. 
 it's going to be huge. I have almost half a garage full of stuff to sell!  Oh what fun I have been having with  trying to get it all  marked! Blah...

Then of course the normal stuff  Griffin  therapy and he now has Preschool in the afternoons
as well as mornings so I am shuttling him back and forth.
 I am trying to keep Rory busy with  Mom's group meet ups.
Which is so cute he loves to play with other kids.
 So I am Bizzy, Bizzy, Bizzy..
Whew....
 Anyway  back to the Challenge...=D

 I made this Card  on Saturday at a crop and just was so happy with how it turned out!
Love Love Love it...

 I wanted to have alot of texture and layers since the challenge this week is Paper Piecing.
 I used the orange ( made more orange to match the owl better) and the blue papers from the Dotted Daisy Dotted papers set.
The Owl was cut out and layered over the branch which has several of the leaves popped up.
 I added some cute wiggly eyes to the owl that fit the eyes perfectly! yay! LOL..

 
 I added extra texture with the candy cane embossing folder & added some ink to make it stand out.
 I also crimped the orange Dotted daisy paper  to give more texture like a ruffled ribbon. then hand cut out the green circle popped my handmade birthday cake ( made with the EK success birthday punch and  Lots of Stickles!)  I added a few scraps of ribbon and a scrap glitter paper strip behind it.
 Inside I used some previously printed and cut bunting flags then popped up every other one
to give them a bit of dimension.  From Lindsay's Stamp Stuff's On The Line Stamps. I used the Martha Stewart 3 dot scallop & the maple leaf corner punch to add even more interest.  I added the happy Birthday ticket I had from the Tickets Galore stamp set  By Sanqunetti ( I just added the happy Birthday inside the blank ticket)
 I had a multi pack of the googly eyes and thought  they worked perfect on this little guy!

Ok so that is all for me today if you want to join in our Challenge just visit the MyGrafico Challenge blog and add your paper pieced entry before next Wednesday!  You can win both these sets I worked with this week and the challenge rules have changed so you can use other images besides Mygrafico but if you  do use anything  from MyGrafico they your entry will count for 2 extra entries, so 3 total how cool is that!
You can visit the Challenge blog HERE   & the MyGrafico Store HERE

 .. I am posting some of the other things I made recently so be on the look out!
I made a school frame for Griffin , some Cards and some Glitter Ornaments!
