Challenge #217 - Splash of Color

We are changing things up a bit in 2015.  The design team is becoming more involved with the daily activities of The Corrosive Challenge, not just behind the scenes crafters anymore!  That means you will be meeting each of us as we host the upcoming challenges in the new year.  So, hey there, my name is Debbie!  I've been on the design team for a bit now, and LOVE every minute of it.  I always look forward to checking out your creations, leaving some love, and learning a thing or two from our crafty friends.  I was the first up to host a challenge.  I've never done this before, soooooo here it goes.  The cool part of hosting a challenge is you get to choose a theme.  I got to thinking.......I don't know what part of the world you live in, but here where I am, there is a blanket of snow!  I love the stuff!  I know you probably think I'm NUTS, but when it is cold outside, you have to stay in and craft!  With that being said, white was my inspiration for the next challenge.  I got to thinking why not a challenge that is "white on white with a splash of color (skin and hair tones are allowed as well).  Our awesome sponsor is:

The first time I saw these digis, I had to have them.   If you want to take a peek at some creations, check out what their design team is making here.  Classy and Sassy, perfect for those "special" cards.  Feeling a need for a little retail therapy?  I'll make it easy for you, here is the link to the store.  They also have a facebook page with lots going on and discounts on images for challenges. Check them out!

Well, enough of my babbling, I want to show you what our very own design team has been crafting:

I want to shout out a huge thanks to our design team for their awesome inspiration - Ladies, you rock!

Challenge # 211 - Magical

Hello there crafty world!  It's getting so close to one of our favorite holidays!  Hope you all have some pumpkin carving, costume parties, and trick-or-treating on the agenda for the week in addition to playing along with our new challenge!

We are thrilled to introduce a new sponsor to our challenges.  Please say a warm welcome to Spellbinding Stamps by Nikki Burnette!  According to Nikki,

"Fantasy art is where my heart lies. I love being able to escape the reality of our world for even just a few hours and enter a new fantasy realm where witches play tricks on Halloween Night, fairies fly around the sweet smelling rosebuds, and mermaids swim gracefully through the water with their dolphin friends."

Well said!  You can see all of her amazing Fantasy Art on her Website  or check out her Facebook Page.  She regularly has freebies and contests for her followers.  Her digis are available at her Etsy Shop.  She has offered up a fabulous prize of 3 Digis for one winner!!

And once again, we are lucky enough to have not one but TWO amazing sponsors.  Welcome back to Sassy Studio Designs!  They have some great new releases that are perfect for playing along, and one lucky winner will receive 4 digis.

That brings us to our challenge...which is to create a project featuring something magical!  Fairies, witches, wizards, dragons, you name it.  Get creative!

Here's a little magic from the team to get you under our spell:

Challenge # 192 - Feel The Love

February already?  Not sure where January went, but a lot of people probably aren't that sad to see it go.  Here's hoping February will be a little warmer for most of us!  Those Polar Vortexes can just scurry off wherever they came from.  Well, at least February has a holiday that's conducive to snuggling up and staying warm...Valentine's Day, of course.  We also have a hot returning sponsor.

Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh and fun company that has been designing and selling for over 3 years now.  Owner Lindsay started designing images shortly after she started stamping.  She designs fun, sexy images that fans enjoy using and friends and significant others enjoy receiving.  In June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers she had, Sassy Studio Designs was born! She still tries to be Lindsay Dyer: keeping with her original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun, and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy!

What better sponsor could we have for our new challenge, "Feel the Love" - create a Valentine's Day project for the upcoming holiday.  Whether it's traditional, or perhaps a little on the darker side of love, we welcome all entries!  

Let's see what the team was up to:

REGAN

DEBBIE

RACHELLE

MICHELLE

  

DEBORA 

JASMINE

JULIE 

REBECCA

 

Are you feelin' it yet?  C'mon feel the love, and share it with us.  You could be the winner of the awesome prize of 4 digis from the Sassy Studio Designs store.
