Race Winners!


That was very entertaining... thank you everyone! I've never seen a race start and end quite so quickly. Your comments had me chuckling away too, and I must admit, I was tempted to drag it out even longer, but I thought that would be cruel. Well done all!

Beautiful these three kings. In our town it is still a tradition that on January 6, children come and sing from door to door dressed as the three kings holding a big star. Creative regards, Gina

Colinda said...

My X stands for the Xplosion (ssst don't tell anyone I didn't spelled it correctly) that took place on my craftdesk, hihihi!
Woodrow is such a cutie, you've paired him up with the perfect sentiment!!

Day 29 - "Z"

To create my Z-fold card, I stamped, coloured and die cut each of the three Kings, then secured them directly over the fold, rather than onto a panel. I had to take extra care not to glue my card closed, particularly with the guy on the right hand side!


YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "Z" as your prompt.

Donna said...

XOXO was always my "go-to" for the letter X. But when we moved I gave that set away. Now what? I may have to think about this a while. I better think fast!

Day 28 - "Y"

I stamped this handsome fellow with a water-based, brown ink pad and then coloured him with warm grey alcohol markers. The string of lights and star are a nice, sunny yellow, to which I added a liberal coating of Wink of Stella for some sparkle and shine!


YOUR TURN: Create a card or project using the letter "Y" as your prompt.

I thought I was quick - but was fourth. This is going to be a real quick race.
Now I get to photographing my W card now. I had to wait because I didn't want to miss the race.

Beautiful cards Beccy. It is almost a game "find the differences" haha! Great theme! Creative regards, Gina

I love this challenge because I have to go back in seeing which card to case especially at this time of the year.
Such a fun challenge....Great looking cards and your snow buddy Beccy.

Day 24 - "U"

I'm breaking my habit of using either "uniform" or "under the mistletoe" for the "U" prompt, instead, I'm going with the colour "ultramarine". Handily, there's actually a copic marker called ultramarine (B29), which made it super easy to choose the colour I needed!


YOUR TURN: Create a card or papercraft project using the letter "U" as your prompt.

Day 23 - "CASE Yourself"

CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) a card you made for a previous challenge. You can keep the design exactly the same or change almost everything for a new look. I created two cards inspired by a project I made for the 2022 challenge. I used the same image, the same book of patterned papers and the same layout with just a little tweak.


ORIGINAL CARD:

YOUR TURN: CASE one of your previous creations, making changes as desired.

Sarah Warren said...

Well darn. I missed the race. I obviously thought sleep was more important than a race. I don't know what I was thinking. That's it. From now on I am staying up until the end of November, so I don't miss any races.

Day 22 - "T"

It's no secret that I love a good two-fer set of cards!
I started by colouring the large image from the Candy Canes set with my alcohol markers. After cutting the image in half, I fussy cut one half nice and close to the lines so no border remained. I used a black marker to colour around the other half of the picture and then fussy cut, leaving a small border. It's interesting to see how different they look with that one added step.


YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "T" as your prompt.

Hi Beccy, my Swedish and Danish ancestors would call this little fellow either tomte or nisse, from their folklore stories. Have a wonderful day... Megan
