About Me

My photo
Hi, my name is Terri. My grandmothers taught me how to crochet and embroider on dish towels when I was a little girl, and that started my love of crafting. Over the years I tried different things but my favorite is still stamping and card making. And what makes it better now is that my 2 sisters like it also!! It's fun when we can get together and make cards!! I love learning new ideas and techniques and give hope to others to step out of their comfort zone and try a few new things. Thanks so much for stopping by....follow along if you'd like and see what we can create!!

PIP Challenge 2203

 

Welcome to PIP Challenge 2203, an Anything Goes Challenge, sponsored this week by:

Thank you so much to Sheepski Designs for providing an image for the design team members to use.  I chose this adorable "Snowman Selfie".  Please visit their website at SHEEPSKI DESIGNS and check out all their awesome products!  

I colored the image with Copic markers and made a shaker card.  I love shaker cards, but I really didn't have much experience making them, so I watched a couple YouTube videos and gave it a whirl.  It came out really cute.  I used glitter and some small clear gems for the filler. You can see all the other design team members' creations at PIP Challenge 2203.  Thank you so much for stopping by - I appreciate it, and have a great week!

Welcome to PIP Challenge 2202, sponsored by:

 Thank you to Polkadoodles for providing an image for the design team members to use. This cute little guy is called Waddy Penguin with Snowkite, and I colored it with Copic markers. I fussy cut the top half of the image and left the bottom as it was, cutting the paper to make a snow hill. The background paper is from my stash.  I added a few snowflakes and a little sparkle pen.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up's "Best Year" set.

You can check out all the awesome images and product at Polkadoodles' website.  Please make sure to visit Challenge 2202 and uplink your project for a chance to win a prize from Polkadoodles.  Thank you so much for stopping by - have an awesome week!
