Crafty Catz Challenges 12th January 2024

 Hello once again and 

Happy New Year!!  I am so glad to get back to normal though, aren't you? 

 I hate it when I don't know what day it is!

There will be a wee change at Crafty Catz Challenges  Instead of weekly, it will now be fortnightly.  The same rules apply, theme is always Anything Goes, with an extra option as well.

So, onto the first challenge of 2024  Sponsored by All Dressed Up Stamps

The theme is No Design Paper

The stamp I have used is called Loves to Bake

I used my Promarkers for the first time in ages, and I'm not very happy with my colouring.  I will need to use my pens more often than my pencils!!  The colour of the photograph is a bit strange too, so I'm not sure what is going on!!

So, it is over to you.  Get your card made and put it on 

Craftycatz fortnightly challenge

Crafty Catz Challenge - Make them Smile

 Hello again!  Hope everyone is just Hunkydory today?

I am late loading up my card again this week, I just can't believe how quickly the days and weeks are flying by!!!!  I think I am organized and then boom!  I've missed the deadline!  Never mind, I am here now.

This week, we are sponsored by the wonderful

SheepSkiDesigns

 Prize 3 images from the shop

As usual, it is Anything Goes, but with a twist which is "Make them Smile"

Here is my card using the digital stamp called Taking a Break

So there we go.  Santa deserves a wee nap now and then I think.

Over to you now, get crafting and load up your card.

We only have 1 more week before our Winter Break, so hopefully 

I will be organised for that!

Bye for now!

Craftycatz Challenge #24/11

 Hello again!  I'm afraid I have been "missing in action" for the month of October.  

My daughter Marie married her Fiancé Jordan, on 21st October in Fingask Castle here in Perthshire.  it was a wonderful day, and it went off without a hitch.  We now have lots of photographs and lots of happy memories.

So, on to the task at hand.  

The new challenge at Crafty Catz Challenge Blog is 

Anything Goes, with the option of Christmas or Winter.

We are sponsored by the wonderful Hettie Clare, and the image I have used is called Country Girl Christmas

This is my card.

,

She is such a cute image.  I coloured her using my Promarkers, and I tried to limit the colours to red, green and yellow.

So, I have so much to do, and not much time to do it in.  I will slowly tick things off my To Do List until they are al

l done though!

Bye for now, remember to look over at Craftycatz weekly challenge

I'll be back next week!

Hello once again!  It is sunny here today, with a very strong wind 

and the temperature has well and truly dropped.  I wish I stayed where it was warm all the time!!

The challenge at Crafty Catz Challenges is 

Have a watercolour background and we have no sponsor this week.

I have used a card which I have just made with the ladies in my Craft Class.  They all really liked it, and they enjoyed making it.  I try to do different forms of crafting with them, and I am always looking for new things for them to try.

Yellow is a colour I don't use very often, but I must confess, I do like the way this card turned out.  It was funny when the ladies realised I had used a Dymo machine to make the sentiment, and they were saying how unusual it was to do that on a card.  I do like the effect though. 

Now, it is over to you.  enter your card at Crafty catz weekly challenge and you may be picked as a winner!!

The image is called Stuck Santa.  I think he has had too many mince pies!!

Over to you now - enter your card and you might just win!!!

I'll be back soon, take care!

Crafty Catz Challenge #649

 Hello again and welcome back to my blog.  The Crafty Catz Challenge has had a break over the summer, but now we are raring to go again!!

Our first challenge has no sponsor, but our theme is 

Getting ready for Christmas

I have used an image from Kenny K, which is called Christmas Shopping.

She has been ever so busy, hasn't she? It's quite scary, to think about Christmas, isn't it? It won't be long!!!

Your turn now, Upload your card to the 

Crafty Catz weekly challenge.blogspot

and the Design Team will leave some comments on 

your post.

That's all for now, I'll be back next week.

Take Care xx

Crafty Catz Challenge 243

 

Hello again!!  Did you miss me?  I'm afraid I was a very bad girl last week and I didn't do a post as time ran away with me.  I seem to have so much to do at the moment, but I'm slowly ticking things off the list.

So, without further ado, here is my card for this week.

The theme is "Make it Sparkle"

We don't have a  sponsor this week or a prize, but you will receive a badge for your blog if you are lucky to win

I have used 2 images from Mo Manning and I have merged them together.

You can't really see the sparkle on my card, but it is all over the snow on the ground and on the snowman.

That's it from me today, I'll hopefully be back next week!!
