Sentiment for a Child - Aud Sentiments

Its another fortnightly challenge at Aud Sentiments this week, so here's the theme for this challenge! 

We would like you to create a card or project with a sentiment for a child

For this challenge we are sponsored by not just one, but two sponsors:

Beccy's Place

and 

Imagine That

Here's a little information about both sponsors

Beccy's Place

I love spending time in my craft room designing and creating with paper, fabric, flowers, ribbons, paint... anything I can get my hands on really. I have tried many different arts and crafts and have a particular passion for papercrafts, decorative painting and ribbon embroidery. I love to share ideas and "how to's" with other keen crafters, which is the purpose of this blog.

Imagine That!

A li'l about me... my name is Kris and I'm married to a wonderful Christian man of 17 years.  We live in the high desert of Central Oregon with our 2 daughters... my li'l muses who inspire many of my drawings.  My love of card-making, drawing & digital coloring lead me to illustrating my own line of digi stamps & papers and the opening of this web store in January 2013.  I thoroughly enjoy this hobby-turned-business and love to see my art incorporated into your crafting projects! The categories are growing quickly, so you're sure to find something that tickles your fancy *Ü* 

Thank you to our sponsors this fortnight! 

For this challenge, I've created the card below:

Thought I would do a cute-sy card today using Sweet Tia from Some Odd Girl and using one of the sentiment words from one of our sponsors - 'Piles of Smiles' (which is from Beccy's Place, I think!)

So please do check out the blog for inspired and fantastic makes from Team A, make sure you pop along and see Team B's creations next week up on the blog and get your craft loving friends to enter into our challenge!

Happy crafting! :)

Rock Star!

Another fortnightly challenge on Aud Sentiments has launched and this fortnight:

We want to see a card or project for a child WITH a sentiment! 

Check out our challenge blog to see our amazing DT creations!

Here's my creation:

Here's a list of materials and craft materials I used for this card:

- Papermania Silver & Pink Gems

- DCWV Blossoms and Butterflies 8 x 8 pad

- Cream cardstock

So I thought I would do a simple card for this challenge without too much flower power on it, or endless list of embellishments, I also as part of the 'Social Media' generation thought I would 'digitise' the image using a mobile application :)

So first of all I used a Social Media application on my phone (I have a Samsung Galaxy S2) called Lumie Light after downloading my chosen image on my phone. I added a star filter to the picture which you may not be able to see - as I used the lowest - medium setting on intensity - which highlighted mostly her clothes and mic. I then put a polaroid frame around the picture and printed this out. I then cut this picture, mounted this on two piece of paper from the DCWV collection pad, then added the sentiment 'Rock Star' in a hot pink colour and printed this out too. I added the various coloured gems from Papermania to add more sparkle and bling to an already 'star-studded' image! Simple and cool :) Hope you like!

For this challenge we have two sponsors:

Doodle Pantry

Hello, my name is Laurie.  I am a wife, mother of 2, crafter, and artist of many trades.  I'm just a regular Joe crafter.  I decided it would be FUN to put my images up at affordable prices for anyone to purchase and use for their personal crafting.  It is not my dream to be the biggest or the best or the most popular.  I truly enjoy what I do and enjoy sharing the creativity that God has given me in the hopes it will inspire others to create too.

Each doodle of mine has a special place in my life.  Even if they were done for a special customer request.  I drew it for a certain reason, maybe someone I know whom I had in mind to make a card for, or just someone that inspired me in some way, and sometimes it was just a random thought of a funny little critter doing something critter-ish that I thought would be cute. I have a variety of doodling styles and I like to keep a diverse selection at my hand for my personal creations.
I hope you enjoy creating to your hearts content with some of my doodles.  But if my images don't suit your personal tastes, I sincerely hope something here inspires you to go create something unique that then puts a smile on another's face
