Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #3

Welcome to the Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #3!  If you are looking for the winner of the last challenge, click here.

I am posting the guidelines as usual.  Please include a direct link to this challenge post (Challenge#3) and include the title Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge.  Also, you may enter up to three times if you like.  But each entry needs to be a different link or InLinkz won't allow it.

Here are the guidelines:
1. You only need to submit a link to a photo of your completed work by the due date. I am using Inlinkz, so it will close automatically when the time is up.
2. Include a direct link to this challenge post in your description.
3. You may combine challenges. But your work must be a new creation. No backdated posts allowed.
4.  You can enter up to three times (to up your chances of winning (^_~) )!
5. The winner will be a random generator (I couldn't pick anyone) and will be sent a prize as their winnings, along with bragging rights.
Is it starting to feel like spring yet?  If it doesn't feel like it quite yet…then our challenge is sure to get you thinking about it.

Are you ready?

The theme is…




Pastel Eggs!!


Yay!  I love Easter, but it's not necessary to be Easter-themed or use eggs.
Please use pastel colours in your projects.  Including eggs is optional.

See what our contributors came up with…

See how Mariko made her own stamp.

Leah made a colourful embossed egg.

Sherri did some Easter altering.  

Cheri made a 4x6 Project Life card.  

The deadline is April 13th, 9pm Pacific Time (for those of you in California).
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
Sherri!

Mint Chocolate Project Life Cards


For the second challenge in March - Mint Chocolate - I decided it would be fun to created some project life journalling cards.  It was a lot of fun stamping and embossing on the Becky Higgins grid cards.  I made a video on the cards I made, in addition to showing the process of how I made a few.  


Here are the full sets of cards I made:  

I loved adding tiny brads to these flowers, giving a nice accent to the embossed bicycle.

What a great saying.  I added bling to the tiny flower and some glitter to the stamped flowers.

This mint enamel dot looks perfect in the middle of my camera, doesn't it?


I did some watercolour and glitter along with some embossing.  Thought this chocolate saying was cute.

I added sprinkles to this watercoloured cupcake using glossy accents and glitter.

Here I did some inlaid die-cut technique I learned from Papertrey Ink and added some cute accents.

I loved added the twine to this card.

This was my fav card, resembling my previously shown card for the challenge.  :)  

Say Yes to this challenge, please!  Hope you are inspired to joining us.  Thanks so much for dropping in.  
 
My supply list can be found on my website here.

Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #2

I was happy to see all the lovely posts for Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #1 - Rainbows.  I was worried we wouldn't get any participants…but you fooled me!  It would be too hard to pick favourites (maybe I can do that when we have even more participants…), but for now it was the random generator.

The lucky winner is…
#11.  Danielle P.
