Aurora Wings No Lines or Color Bingo


Our new Challenge begins today at Aurora Wings and this time you have a choice of No Lines or Color Bingo.

 
 
Obviously I've opted for the Color Bingo, using White/Red/Bue.  Figured my learning curve was WAY too long to try the cool No Lines effect, although we have a wonderful tut on the Challenge Blog by teamie Alyce if you'd like to give it a try.


I've used the Sizzix Accordian Flip Album die for my card and each panel holds a different Sprite.  Each is colored with Copics and mounted on a DP mat cut with my Spellbinder's Labels One.  Here's Strawberry Sprite.



And Blueberry Sprite.  I thought the combo of gingham and bandana patternes looked just like a summer picnic.  The sentiment was done with Alpha Beads.


And finally the adorable Raspberry Sprite.  Aren't they the sweetest EVER?!  All 3 are also available in Mitzi's Digital Stamp Shop on her AW website HERE, as well.  The Lattice corners and side embellies were also Spellbinders.  So let's hear it for the Red, White and Blue!  Be sure to stop by Aurora Wings Challenge Blog to see the fabulous creations by my DT sisters.  You'll be so totally impressed.  And please come play along, with either the No Lines, Color Bingo or BOTH, if you dare.

Also, don't forget our Showcase Blog where we feature new releases as well as gorgeous creations by fans of Aurora Wings.  You can have your projects considered for a Showcase by Posting them HERE on the Stamps by Aurora Wings FB Group or read more about it HERE.  You'll receive a special Blog Badge and a digi stamp of your choice (up to $4.00 value) if you're chosen.  Our current Clean and Simple FB Contest is running through June 30th, as well.  Lots of prizes all over the place.

I'm entering this in the Open Minded Crafting Things with Wings Challenge, Dragonfly Dreams Anything with Wings, Crafts and Me Add Wings, Simon Says Monday ATG, Stamp and Create June Thank You Challenge and the Live & Love Crafts Summer Garden Challenge.

Lacy Sunshine Add Flowers


I'm cutting it so close to the end of the Lacy Sunshine Add Flowers Challenge that I'm gonna have to come back and fill in the gaps.  Phew!  Just made it with 3 minutes to spare.  I was thrilled to find out that as a member of the Creative Artist Team for Lacy Sunshine, posting once a month on the Lacy Sunshine Blog(where you find out what's New and Now in the Lacy Sunshine world), I'm still eligible to enter the challenges on the Challenge Blog and contests on the FB Group because I love playing there.  This card is doing double duty.  The current FB Contest is to use any of the Bubbles stamps so I'm entering this there, as well.  My plan was to make this look like a fluffy white towel on a towel bar using some cool textured paper from Sizzix.  I hand cut the towel shape and used my Spellbinders to cut the hole for Bubbles to peek through.  the sentiment was hand stamped with individual letters from an ancient set which took me FOREVER to get straight.  Why I didn't use my computer to generate it, I'll never know.  Guess I thought "practice makes perfect" but sheesh!

 
The adorable image is Bubbles Bath available in the Sticky Wings Section of the Shop.  She's colored with Copics and I've added some fun holographic bubbles and Stickles to the suds.  The additional daffodils are rubber stamps from Heartfelt Creations, cut with the corresponding dies by Spellbinders.
 

The center step design worked well for my plan and here you can see a bit of the dimension as several portions of Bubbles' daffodil bathtub and towel were fussy cut and popped on the image.  I tried to curl the "towel" to look like it was hanging on the (coffee stir stick) towel bar as well.  The whole thing actually turned out better than I expected.  Woohoo!
