Conjurer of Dreams January 2025 Blog Challenge

Today I am going to show you the project I made for the Conjurer of Dreams January Blog Challenge #4. The challenge is always Anything Goes, with an optional theme this month being Winter Window.

I call this my Accordion Journal Box and I have gone with the Winter Window theme.  I started with a blue box which was part of some packing.  Here are all the sections.

Morgan's ArtWorld January 2025 Blog Challenge

 Welcome to the first Blog Challenge #84 for 2025, which is Always Anything Goes.  This month I am working with Cats 2 Colouring Page.


I have coloured the image with pencils.  I have used a frame from my digital stash (Conjurer of Dreams). I have used a kraft card base, matted the image with cardstock sanded on the edges and used a paws ribbon to finish it off.  The sentiment is from my digital stash also.

Morgan's ArtWorld #83 December Blog Challenge

   Welcome to Morgan;s ArtWorld Blog Challenge for December #83, with the theme Anything Goes.  This month I have created with "Kingfishers".  I thought this image would be suitable for a Sympathy card or for someone who is going through a tough time.  I printed the image twice and on the second copy I cut out the kingfishers and added them with foam tape.  I hope you like my inspiration.

SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge December #93

 Welcome to our "Anything Goes" Blog Challenge #93 December, our last challenge for 2024 as well as our last blog challenge.  

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Andrea for her talent and the gifting of her images while I was on the team.  I was a follower and customer of her images way before I joined the team and it is very sad that this chapter for Andrea and my fellow design team members has come to an end.  I wish Andrea all the best in her other craft journeys and I know her jigsaw solving will take the place of filling the void of SheepSki Designs

.  This month I have created a journal page featuring "Vixen".

I printed off two copies of Vixen and layered him with foam tape.  The embellishments are from my never dwindling stash.

I hope you will find some inspiration from my SheepSki Designs creations and continue to use your digital stamps from Andrea.


Bye for now,


Gail

Gecko Galz October Steampunk Challenge

 This is my entry for Gecko Galz Steampunk challenge.  I have added this gorgeous image to a journal I am currently working in.  I love searching through my sentiments on my computer files or Google to find the appropriate sentiment to go with images.

For this project I printed 4 copies of the image and layered first the girl over the whole image then from there I pieced parts of the image over her again as well as around the page.  I am quite happy with the result.  Foam tape was definitely my friend in this journal page, Another layout to bulk up my journal book, hope it shuts. A few embellishments from my stash finished the project.

As well Papercraft Secrets Facebook Group was having a steampunk theme for October so I added my project to there.
