New Beginnings

After a long absents, what a fitting challenge to start off with!

This challenge is for Allsorts and it is a theme challenge called "New Beginnings"

Thankful

I think this card covers 3 different challenges:

Stamp Something which is a theme Thank You Something
Allsorts which is a also a theme Christmas Carol or Song title
Crazy 4 which is a sketch you will find it here.

The papers I used for this challenge are from a digi kit titled Vintage Oreo, a very fitting name. Once again I used a coloring book page for the image. I really like the lyrics to this song so I have included a link here.

Double Up

I combined the challenge for Allsots which was to make something for a child and Crazy 4 Challenges which was to use acetate on your project.

I made this several years ago using the glass bulbs you see in the craft stores. This time I recreated it using PSP.

I guess if I were to make a physical project using acetate the steps would be as follow:

First thing I would do is heat the acetate just enough to mold it around the top of a light bulb. Allowing it to cool and repeat for second half.

I would make the arms, gloves, legs, and shoes out of chip board and construction paper...gluing the construction paper to both sides. I would also use the construction paper for the mouth. I like those eyes that move...you know the ones, I would use them instead of the paper just because I think they are fun and glue them on.

I would use the formed acetate to trace a circle frame out of chipboard to glue the completed legs and arms to. Making sure I added the cap for the hook at the top.

Glue one of the acetate circles to the frame. Add the contains then glue the other have. Add the hook and you project is complete.

A 2 for One

This card represents my interpretation of the challenges at Allsorts of Challenge blog and Mojo Monday. Allsorts challenge is about the bling and showing it on your project and Mojo Monday has another sketch for us which you will find here. Both challenges have been met, my card is complete.

Double Challenges

This entry is for 2 challenges...Allsorts and Crazy 4.
