CraftyJC Challenge #9: Recycle - Winners

Ok. sometimes a girl has to do what a girl ought to do!

We had 52 entries for the last challenge. The DT and I were watching with bated breaths as the number kept creeping up till the last day. It was truly a tough task to choose the Top 3 and so we ended up with a Top 3 but shared by the Top 4 :) Yes, sometimes a girl ought to do what a girl ought to do.

 

Ujjwal’s entry way absolutely creative. Now I can’t see an egg carton without thinking about her entry :)

Sonia’s flowers were gorgeous – you would never have guessed their humble origin! :)

Indira;s pumpkin seed flowers were fabulous to

And The winning entry is Hussena’s Recycled Box, Tag & A Small Purse.

CraftyJC Challenge #10: An Inspiration

This time for the inspiration I’ve been thinking of having the usual “Top 3” of the previous challenge as DT. But now, since this something everyone’s been excited about I think I will not deny the pleasure of the creating something – as Susan calls it – Creative Simplicity

So, here I am with a bit of some inspiration.  I plan to invite a few other crafters over the next weeks to provide more inspiration.

The Top 3 of Recycle challenge will be DT for the next challenge. I will be announcing the winners VERY soon. It’s been soo difficult to choose the winners!! You girls were amazing.

Ok, now that I am done with all the (nervous) chatter (I’ve never provided any inspiration for any challenge!!), AND I can’t think of anything else to say to sort of postpone this moment, here is me dreaming of Christmas already :)

This card is has just about 3 steps

1. Stamp Hero Arts Wreath of Leaves in light green and dark green on top of each other. I didn’t bother cleaning the stamp in between
2. Stamp the sentiment from Papertreyink ‘ Signature Christmas in red
3. Stick those beautiful red frosted stones from PieLane

And you are done.

Thanks for dropping by and I hope you will play along at our Simplicity challenge

Cheers,
JC
