Allsorts Challenge ~ Traditional Christmas Colours

The Allsorts Challenge theme this time was chosen by Lynne and she has chosen the theme of 'Christmas Colours'.  As always there is also the option of Anything Goes.

I decided to make a CAS card in red and gold.  I used a Sue Wilson 'Joy' set of dies.  The gold is a pale gold glitter card.  I finished off my card with three tiny, red gems.

 

There are two prizes, a Tim Holtz Festive Foliage stamp set and a voucher for digital downloads from Buddly Crafts. 

Crafty Calendar Challenge ~ Halloween

The October Crafty Calendar Challenge begins today and the theme this month is 'Halloween'.

 

I used a MFT 'Cross-Stitch Tag' die with stiff white card and chopped off the top to make a rectangle.  The spider was cross stitched with black crochet cotton.  The striped paper was from a My Mind's Eye 'Something Wicked' paper pad.  I used a Cuttlebug 'Spider Stew' embossing folder.  The sentiment is a stamp from La-La Land Crafts 'Lil' Devil Marci' set, stamped with Versafine 'Onyx Black'.

The Crafty Calendar Challenge ends on 28th October, so please hop over to the challenge blog to see all the creations the DT have made for inspiration.

I am joining in the following challenges:

Crafty Animals Challenge #99 ~ Anything Goes with an Animal

Double D Challenge ~ Trick or Treat Smell My Feet Challenge 8 spiders feet

As You Like It Challenge ~ Square or not? (and why) I prefer making square cards as there seems to be more flexibility on where to put all the different elements.
