Challenge #163 - Anything Goes

Hello!  We know this is a busy time of year for everyone, and we want to thank all the amazing crafters who joined us for our Flutter By challenge!  We hope everyone in the US is enjoying their Thanksgiving weekend!  I'm taking a bit of time out from turkey leftovers, shopping, and decorating to tell you about our new Corrosive Challenge!  First, though, here is a little info about our November sponsor:

A Day For Daisies (also known as ADFD) provides themed categories of over 1000 digital illustrations, including fairy tales and magical mermaids, cutie kids, vintage illustrations, sentiments and lovely designs for all occasions.  Be sure to check out what is available in the shop, and head over to the blog for some awesome inspiration!

 ADFD will provide a $12 Gift Certificate (that's equal to 3 images of choice) to the shop for this month's winner!


This will be our final challenge for the year.  The design team is going to be taking a well-deserved and much needed hiatus to enjoy the holidays and our families.  BUT we will be holding a design team call in December!  So if you think you might be interested in joining the team set aside a little time to apply and check back with us on December 9th.

Challenge #161 - Know When To Fold 'Em

Happy Halloween!  Well, almost anyways!  We really enjoyed all the monsterous munchies and treacherous treats that you share with us for the last challenge!  There will be some very happy trick or treaters out there!  Once again we'd like to thank our generous October sponsor, Sassy Studio Designs!  They have offered 4 digital images to our monthly winner!

Here's a little about the fabulous digi company in owner/artist Lindsay Dyer's own words:
"Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh and fun company. We have been designing and selling for 3 years now, and we have been kindly received into the community of digi stampers and crafters. I started designing images shortly after I started stamping. I was a young adult woman at the time. I was engaged, had no kids - I wanted fun, sexy images that I would enjoy using and my friends and (then soon to be) hubby would enjoy receiving. I designed images for 2 other digi stamp companies when my DH kept trying to get me to go out on my own. So in June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers I had, Sassy Studio Designs was born! It has been a wonderful journey starting my own store. We have just grown so much these past years.  I still try to be Lindsay Dyer: keep with my original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun, and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy! ~Lindsay"

This fortnight the theme is "Know When To Fold 'Em".  We want to see your finest fancy fold work!  As long as your project has more than one fold, it qualifies for this challenge!

Let's see what fancy folds our design team came up with:

 It's that time of year when hordes of little monsters wander door to door looking for treats...  In order to keep the ghouls, goblins, and ghosties happy (and keep Halloween mischief-free) we want to see your "Treacherous Treats"!  Any Halloween themed treat container qualifies - bag, box, cone, pouch, test tube... If it can hold eerie edibles, we'd love for you to enter our challenge this fortnight! 

Let's see what containers for nightmarish nibbles the design team has conjured up!

Challenge #158 - Animal Companions

Welcome back crafters!  So far this month we have seen some really awesome mythical and magical creations.  We were inspired by the yummy digis available from our fabulous sponsor for September - Delicious Doodles .  The winner for this month will receive FOUR digi's of their choice!  Here is a bit about the company from the artist herself: "Delicious Doodles is a young company with myself,Teri, as the Sole Trader/Designer. I have doodled and sketched all of my life. I started making greetings cards when my last child was born, and used my doodles on them as I couldn’t find what I wanted in the usual craft places. I only started selling my images in the Autumn of 2009. I design and hand/mouse-draw all of the images that are sold in the Delicious Doodles Shop. Some are cutsie animals, some are sketched flowers, there are a few men's images, fairies and also some 'darker' images featuring vampires, skulls and Gothic stuff, something for everyone!" Why not pop over and take a look!

Delicious Doodles Shop

The theme for this fortnight's challenge is "Animal Companions".  Your creation must include an image that features an animal.  Teri has plenty of cute or creepy images available depending on your style.

Here is what the Design Team came up with:
