One lucky winner will get four (non-colored) images of their choice from Meljen's store. The challenge is Spring with pastel colors. I used Spring Growth Word Art and colored with my Copics.

Hey fellow crafters. Here's my second project for the challenge at CCCB. This month's challenge is sponsored by Digital Delights by Louby Loo. The winner will get $10 to spend in the store. The challenge is to use ribbon and/or lace on your project. I used Cupcake Timmy and colored him with my Copics. I added a little Clear Star Gelly Roll to the candle, flame and the cupcake wrapper. I double mounted him and then placed him on some fun paper. I added a little faux stitching to the image and a dimensional element #1 that I colored with my Copics as well. Added a little ribbon and called it a wrap.All products are CTMH except the ribbon which came from my stash. Remember, this challenge lasts for a month so there's still time to enter.

Welcome to another challenge at CCCB. This month's challenge is sponsored by Digital Delights by Louby Loo. The winner will get $10 to spend in the store. The challenge is to use ribbon and/or lace on your project. I used Cupcake Timmy and colored him with my Copics. I added a little Clear Star Gelly Roll to the candle, flame and the cupcake wrapper. I double mounted him and then placed him on some fun paper. I decided to color my chipboard ribbon slide with a matching Copic and stamped a number one from one of my many sets. All products are CTMH except the ribbon which came from my stash.

Remember, this challenge lasts for a month and I'll be posting another cute design in two weeks. So hop on over and see what my fellow DT members have cooked up. Make sure you leave them a little "love."

Yippie skippy am I excited! I was chosen to be on a brand new design team at CCCB which means I get to play with some more fun images and get to meet some more fabulous crafters. I'm on Team B so my projects will be posted on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month. The sponsor for this month is A Day for Daisies and one lucky person will win a $12 gift certificate to spend in the store. I just love their whimsical images. The challenge is to use pink, red and purple in your project. Yep, that's right all three colors. Now if you are a red hatter like me, that won't be a problem. We already know how to rock those colors!

I used Tiny Pixie Daisy and colored her with my Copics. I used my Art Philosphy Cartridge and cut out a frame which I popped up with some foam dots. All papers are sponged with Cocoa Ink. I used some of the new CTMH Color Ready Seam Binding Ribbon which I colored with my Copics to match perfectly! I added some buttons for a little pop and called it good.

So hop on over and see what my fellow DT members have cooked up. Plus you might want to take a peek at The Crafter’s Café site. On February 10th we are having a blog hop and on Saturday, February 11th, we're having an all day party ending with an online project that we'll be making together that evening! You don't want to miss this!
