This week, Wendy has challenged us to a color challenge! We can only use colors from SU’s Earth Elements with cream or white.

LLWWC38 - Fairy Sweet Lala

Hi! It's time for another La-La's Weekly Wednesday Challenge!

Kim is our hostess this week! 

She thought that it would be nice to have a little break, so this week's challenge is "ANYTHING GOES"! 

How fun is that?!

Kim has used Mermaid Lala  so it is 20% of the regular price until next Tuesday!

Anything goes, right? So I have been wanting to make a white on white card using my collection of flourescent Copic markers and my Atyou Spica Markers for some bling.

Fairy Lala

I coloured her hair with FV2.

The star was coloured with FY1.

C01 created the shadows on her wings and dress.

Now it's time to hop on over to La-La Land Crafts Blog to see what the rest of the DT and GDT made for this "ANYTHING GOES" challenge!

 

The details for this challenge can be found HERE.

CCM Sketch #3 - A couple of days behind

Hi everyone!

Thursday came and went without my posting CCM Sketch #3 for Chi Chi Memories!
I am very sorry. I didn't forget. Most of you probably already know that I deal with migraines on just about a weekly basis, especially since I took myself off of Topamax (anti-seizure medication used as treatment for migraines). I am finally starting to find some release from this one, just in time for Mother's Day! Hooray!

Here's this week's sketch:

Isn't it cute?!

Really easy to work with too.

Here's my sample.

I decided to make a birthday card for my brother using Sunny Boy.

This card was also made with Cute Card Thursday's Challenge 111: "Boyz to Men"

This week we want to see your creations aimed at the boys or men in your life!

For more information on the challenge, please visit Chi Chi Memories HERE!

I hope you can join in on the fun!

"Elle & Rosaline" from Ellephantastic

Hello everyone! I hope that you had a wonderful week!

Today, I would like to introduce you to Elle & Rosaline.

Elle loves Rosaline and takes her everywhere she goes.

This week's theme is "Girlie" and try as I might, I just could not get her to wear pink!

She's feeling a little blue today.

 She did request flowers, polka dots, and a sparkly bow.

What Elle wants, Elle gets.

I used a Clear Spica Atyou marker to add the sparkle that Elle wanted.

Her eyes and the three faux brads receive some love from my bottle of glaze.

LOVE her eyes!

I coloured Elle and Rosaline with Copics.

The paper is from Luxe Designs.

The layout is from a sketch challenge over at i {heart} 2 Stamp.

If you are on Facebook and a FAN of this challenge blog, then join "Sketch for You to Try" and you can get the sketches on FRIDAY instead of Saturday!

Now hop on over to Ellephantastic Cards & Crafts BLOG to see the DT samples!

Have a wonderful day!
