THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #300--"PINK, GREEN, YELLOW, AND BLUE"--24 JANUARY 2016

This week's challenge at The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is to use the colors of pink, green, yellow, and blue in your project!  You may include other colors as needed, but the main colors in your project should be pink, green, yellow, and blue.  Our sponsor this week is Oddball Art Co., and the prize is three digital stamps of the winner's choice from the Oddball Art Co. store.

The Design Team members were provided with an image from Oddball Art Co. for our projects, and my chosen image is "Sally & Charlie."  My husband and I are going on a (kid-free!) cruise this summer, and I always like to take handmade thank-you cards to give the cruise staff at the end of the trip along with their tips.  This will be perfect to use for that!

I used the January card sketch at Stick It Down

and will be entering my card there.

Supplies Used

~Basic Grey Nook & Pantry Placemats patterned paper
~Cardstock from stash
~Colored pencils in blue, golden yellow, light green, magenta, mahogany, peach, red, and slate

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #290--"WET OR DRY EMBOSSING"--15 NOVEMBER 2015

Hi, everyone!  The new challenge for the Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is up, and this week we're asking you to use wet or dry embossing on your project.  Our sponsor this week is AuroraWings, and they are graciously giving this week's winner their choice of digital stamps up to $10 listed value from the AuroraWings Store.  Thanks so much!

AuroraWings was nice enough to provide the Robyn's Fetish Design Team with an image to use for this week's challenge.  I chose "Sea Turtle Kisses" and came up with this:

 

I really LOVE this image!  It's SUPER cute and can be used for pretty much any occasion.  I used the current sketch at Mojo Monday for this card

but I rotated it, because it seemed to fit better with my image.

Purple!

One of the June Monthly Card Challenges at Scrappin' 'n' Chattin' this month was purple.  This was a little bit of a stretch for me, as I don't normally scrap cards with a lot of purple, but it all worked out.  We're allowed to do each card challenge twice, so these are the two cards I came up with for the Purple challenge:

I embossed the bottom 3/4 of the light purple cardstock with the D'vine Swirls Cuttlebug folder and adhered the ribbon from my stash across the upper edge of the embossing.  Luckily, I was able to find light and dark purple brads in my stash to go along with the light and dark purple flowers I found in my stash!  Adding a couple of purple rhinestones and a sentiment from Close To My Heart gave the card the finishing touches.

Challenges Entered:

Paper Crafting Journey--Last Challenge:  Flower Power

Scrappin' 'n' Chattin' June Monthly Card Challenge--Purple

After embossing the dark purple cardstock with the D'vine Swirls Cuttlebug folder, I also embossed the light purple cardstock with the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder.  The image was a wood stamp I found in my stash, and I used a random purple ink on the image and also to ink the edges of the skunk's little tuft of fur in the center of his head.  The skunk is from the Create a Critter Cricut cartridge and was one I received in a Cricut cut swap in the Yahoo group Scrappin' 'n' Chattin' that we did a while back.

Challenges Entered:

Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge #183--Embossing:  Heat or dry

Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #217--Anything Goes
Scrappin' 'n' Chattin' June Monthly Card Challenge--Purple

I hope everyone had a great Monday!  I'll be back with more creations tomorrow, so be sure to stop back by.  Have a great week!
