Little Red Wagon # 240 Food For Thought

Hey everyone, it's the middle of the work week! Yeah! That means it's also time for another Little Red Wagon Challenge.

This week I am hosting the challenge and my theme this week is FOOD FOR THOUGHT! Sound like a tasty challenge? What is this challenge all about? Well I am asking for you to create a project that is featuring FOOD. Whether it's from stamps, die cuts, pattern paper with pictures of food. Go for it. Have some stickers or embellishments featuring a tasty treat, that works too. Dig into your stash and create a project featuring something Yummy.....or not so yummy if you want to show off something like brussel sprouts.

Now for my delicious card. I used a sweet image from Your Next Stamp called Ellie Loves Ice Cream. I love ice cream too......mint chocolate chip is my favourite. With my image I used fun paper from Pink Paislee "Hey Kid" collection. The sentiment (You're TOO Sweet) is from MFT Lollipop Pure Innocence stamp.

The image is coloured with Copic markers. I added a bit of glitter to her hair band using Glitter Ritz micro fine glitter.

Inside the card I used the sentiment from the Ellie Loves Ice Cream set along with others from Tiddly Inks and My Favorite things.

I hope that you will join this weeks tasty FOOD FOR THOUGHT challenge over at Little Red Wagon. If you want to see some inspiration, feast your eyes on the creations by the design team Girlfriends.  FAB-U-LOUS! Don't forget to link up your projects at the Little Red Wagon Blog. On Tuesday check back on the blog for the featured projects!

Have a deliciously fun and crafty day!

Little Red Wagon # 226 Yearning for Spring

Are you ready for another challenge at Little Red Wagon?

This week Rosanne is setting the challenge and I think she is tired of winter because she would like to see spring themes or colours on your creations.

Well I was more than happy to jump into this one. My Winter and Christmas papers and supplies are getting pushed further away from my working space and I am finding myself excitedly reaching for bright pinks, blues and yellows.

The image is a digi from Tiddly Inks called "Celebrate Joyfully Emma". I really love these images and they are so fun to colour. The paper in the Pink Paislee's "Hey Kid" collection really works well for spring. I backed the pattern paper with a bright pink Coredinations Core colour card stock which I distressed.

For this card I tried another style for my background (my other background here). I am still deciding if I like this look or not. I have seen some great effects where you are just dabbing your markers around the image. It may be that I just need a bit more practice and playing with this technique. The image does pop more with this background.

Inside the card I used a sentiment from a Your Next Stamp set called "Heartfelt Sentiments".

Are you yearning for spring? Join us over at Little Red Wagon for this weeks fun challenge. Please remember to stop by and see the spring creations the other Girlfriends have made to inspire you.

Have a wonderful day and please come back soon.
