Challenge # 190 - New Beginnings

Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season, and are looking forward to a fabulous 2014. It was nice to have a little break to handle all the hustle and bustle of the holidays, but we are excited to be back for our first challenge of the new year. We are always pleased to welcome back A Day For Daisies as our 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 has also opened a new clear polymer shop featuring "most loved" images sold as sets. Check out their lovely selection HERE! They are generously offering our winner a $12 gift voucher to their online shop!

In honor of the new year, our theme for the challenge is "New Beginnings" - wedding, graduation, new baby, Baptism, spring, you get the idea.

Challenge # 189 - Anything Goes

December already?! It's hard to believe the year is almost over, and this is our last challenge for 2013! We have a wonderful new sponsor for the occasion that we are thrilled to introduce:

Lacy Sunshine Stamps offers beautiful original and imaginative digital stamps for all your paper crafting needs.

All images from Lacy Sunshine are hand drawn and designed by myself, Heather Valentin, a professional artist, muralist and illustrator and my dad, professional artist, G.P.

From the art desk of Lacy Sunshine's creator....

"I am one who loves creating timeless pieces from my heart and soul, creating an extraordinary world filled with magic and whimsical friends.... one drawing at a time. Come journey with me now into my Lacy Sunshine World".

To keep things simple, the challenge is "Anything Goes"! Our sponsor has such a wide variety of images from totally adorable to a little bit creepy. Most of the team (probably wisely!) went with Holiday themed cards, but you can do anything you want! The winner of the challenge will receive 3 digis from Lacey Sunshine for a prize.

A little inspiration from the team:
