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

SheepSki Designs June 2024 Blog Challenge

 Welcome to our June Blog Challenge #87 Anything Goes. I used "It's a Spring Thing" image to make my card this month. This digi can be found here. Its a Spring Thing Image No 282 - Etsy Australia.

My card base is white and then I matted the scene with Stampin' Up Bubble Bath A4 cardstock. I printed a Make it Crafty digi for the background which also had the sentiment on it and then placed "It's a Spring Thing over that and of course printed another copy of it so I could raise the gnome and swing on the card.  I miss Make it Crafty and think of Zoe often.  I am sure Andrea does too!

SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge July 2023

 Our optional twist this month is "Celebrations".  I was keen to use SheepSki Designs' "Buttercup Cottage" a new image from Andrea. 

I wanted to make a gnome scene with this cottage and used "Giant Daisies".

You may also find another of Andrea's images hiding somewhere.  It is part of an older image.

I have added grass diecuts and signpost and a few chipboard embellies to complete the scene and voila, we have a welcome to our neighbourhood card for a new neighbour.

SheepSki Designs March Blog Challenge

 Hi to all my followers,

This month I am promoting SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge for March.  The optional twist is :Embellish It.  I got so excited to work with Grace that I forgot the theme was embellishing. You don't just one image with this, you get 2 jpg and 2 png.  I have used Grace with her utterly DECO background.  I coloured her with pencils, which has been my go to for a while now.  Some of the pencils I used were metallic.   I wanted a break from Copics and with everything going on in my life at the moment, it's what I cope the best with.

SheepSki Designs October Blog Challenge

 Here is my inspiration for the SheepSki Designs Blog Challenge for October.  The optional theme is Autumn Things.  In Australia we have had our Autumn and it is Spring here, so I had to go to another part of the world when I was thinking about this theme.  This card is a combination of Fall and Halloween, could not make up my mind so it is a representation of both.

I have used Bit Batty and Vlad & Mia in this scene.

Love Combining my Digital Stash

I hope the digital artists I buy from don't mind me combining their images and drawings because I love coming up with ideas to merge them together on a card.

 I found a great image in my Gecko Galz images - Gene Kelly and Judy Garland.  I then decided to put a frame around them. Gene and Judy are part of the 2022 Kit Club - February (Vintage Love Kit 2).  The frame is part of the Vintage Frames Craft Kit.

 I used a 6" square card and some white wash woodwork designer paper.  I also knew I had a SheepSki Designs image  Daisy Panel that would go perfectly with this scene and of course a few daisies from my stash.

SheepSki Designs July Blog Challenge

 Our July Blog Challenge optional theme is "Christmas in July".  I used a square white card base and a SU designer sheet from a 6 x 6 pad, a tree brad, a bauble from Scrapmatts and the envelopes are from Bizzy Bec's. I have coloured the snow with a Posca Pen and added a Wink of Stella here and there.

Of course, the image is "Christmas Post Box" from SheepSki Designs.  It is coloured with pencils.

SheepSki Designs May Blog Challenge

 The optional theme for May's Blog Challenge is "For the Girlz".  For my inspiration I have used "Hot Chocolate".

I wanted to create a rounded curved pop with the image on the card, but not sure exactly how it is done.

My colouring is with mixed coloured pencils.
