House of Gilli ~ Challenge 21

Hi, I have the very cozy, PJ Gilli to share with you today.  It was such a rainy day yesterday in southeastern PA that I wanted to stay in my pj's all day, but couldn't, so instead I made a pajama party card. :)  I paper pieced the pj's and then added a little flower soft to them.  Gilli was colored with Copics (and the pj's shaded with them).  I cut Gilli's hair just a tad, so she'd match up a bit better with the birthday girl who's getting the card.  The only thing you need to do to enter Challenge 21 is to add flourishes to your project.  Stop on by House of Gilli   to add your card, and view the inspiration cards for this challenge.  Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you over there!   :)

Outlawz Challenge ~ Giving Thanks

Hi and Happy Monday to you!  Outlawz greeting card challenge is all about giving thanks this week.  Your card does not have to be a Thanksgiving card, but must have some sort of thank you sentiment on the front.  I used Boho Gilli  stamp to make a thank you card ~  Gilli stamps are designed by anaRy.  I colored the image with Copics, used Basic Grey Marjolaine design paper, and made little bitty earrings for her using seed beads and jewelry wire.

I hope you join us over at Outlawz, and thanks so much for stopping by.  :)

Beautiful Fairy ~ Fall in Love

I have a fun challenge for you over at Through the Craftroom Door!  Our challenge is sponsored by Karber Digital, and the lucky winner will receive 3 digis of their choice from the sponsor.  So hop on over to check out all the details.  I used the Beautiful Fairy Karber digi for my project; isn't she precious!  I used the tutorial 2,5,7, 10 Box from Split Coast Stampers, only I changed these dimensions.  I made mine 1.5, 5, 6.5, 10; this gave me more surface space for my image.  I used Copics to color the image and Stickles for the wings and wand.

Look forward to seeing you over at Through the Craftroom Door and thank for stopping by.  :)

Painter Gilli is in the House

Happy Thursday to You!!!  House of Gilli Challenge #19 ~ Recycle and Texture ~  Come join us over at the House  for our exciting challenges!  This was a very fun challenge for me ~ thank you Wini!  I thought of this wooden box when thinking about recycling.  It was pushed way back on a shelf and was covered in dust.  The base was painted a colonial blue and  the lid stenciled, made during my country-style crafting phase.

I colored Painter Gilli with Copics, and my die cuts were made using my paper scrap bin.  My texture is the paint; it's hard to see in the pic, but the paint is really thick. I spattered the paint on the lid with paint stir sticks (saw a man on youtube apply it this way) and some fine spatters with a toothbrush.  I'd recommend everyone give the *Jackson Pollock* inspired paint spattering a try, it's a thrill to create. If you'd like to order an adorable Gilli stamp please email the artist anaRy at:  anary@anary.com   Thanks so much for visiting and I would love to see your creations, come join in the fun!

Outlawz ~ Think Pink

This week your card must have pink for the Greeting Cards Outlawz Challenge!  I used a digi image from A Day for Daisies for my card.  I paper pieced the tree leaves and then colored them with Copics to give them some depth.  The letters were cut using my Cricut and then I added some pink Stickles to give them some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you over at Outlawz.
