CHALLENGE #70

Cant' believe it but I am a winner for the challenge at Crafty Creations. The challenge was black, white and splash of red, my number came up and thanks to Eat Cake Graphics, I'll receive a $10 gift certificate. They offer mounted, unmounted stamps, and also quilt patterns, know that making a choice will be hard.

The challenge this week at Crafty Creations is "Child Play," if you like challenges this is a great blog and they offer some great challenges.

BLACK, WHITE AND SPLASH OF RED

Not a card this time. Sewing is another craft that I enjoy doing, and when my friend Sandy and I went shopping we found some great fabric, love the fabric but just didn't know what type of project I could do until seeing a great pattern for the tote. When home and the next day made the tote using this fun black and white print. I use the tote now and everyone asked where I got it, am so proud to say that I made it.

The fabric on the bottom was textured using "Magic Texture," it gives your fabric texture by using a steam iron. Crafty Creations has a challenge to use black, white and splash of red, just had to submit this fun tote.

If anyone interested in pattern information, or Magic Texture, just send an email, I'd be glad to pass on the information.

Thanks for stopping by today. Have a crafty day.

HEARTS AND TEXTURE

Our Creative Corner has a wonderful challenge this past week to use black, white and texture. The base of the card is white, then embossed white card stock using a embossing folder from Provo Craft and my Big Shot. The design paper was purchased at Joanns, then made a smaller mat in black and then white embossed again. Love to use the folders and Big Shot, it is so easy to get a great texture.




The flower is chipboard, which I found quite sometime ago at Michaels add a button shape on top of the flower with white 1/8" ribbon. The small hearts are also chipboard. The double matted heart was stamped using Stampin Up ink. The hearts were punched using a punch from Creative Memories. By the way the hearts were added for the challenge at The Shabby Tea Room.

Hope everyone had a great week and have great plans for the weekend.
