Anything goes challenge at That craft place

It's a fab Anything Goes challenge at That Craft Place this fortnight. That's an easy one, right?


That Craft Place Challenge Blog

I made a cover for a little concertina book. I have NO idea what's going in the book, but I love the cover!


The Mad Hatter is a stamp from Octopode, and the funky flowers are Ditzie Design Digis. There's a background stamp honeycomb wire in there from That Craft Place as well as some fab gold skeleton leaves. It's well worth a pop over to see what they have in stock!

Right, on with the weekend, hope you're having a good one!

I'm also entering this into the Stamping Sensations challenge- Summer flowers.

Decorate a bag at That Craft Place

Hello everyone, hope you're having a good weekend! I'm completely absorbed by the Tour de France, as I am most years.

Anyway, it's time for another challenge at That Craft Place


That Craft Place Challenge Blog


We had some amazing Anything Goes entries for our last challenge, remember to check on the challenge bin next week to see who the winner and top 3 are, plus the winner of the Blog Hop :-)

My blog hop winner is #1 Jodpea- well done and I'll get your prize to you!

Now onto our new challenge which is hosted by our DT member Shell

Decorate a Bag

Team A will be showing lots of inspiration over on our That Craft Place Natter and Chatter Facebook Page but I'm Team B, so here's my bag.



It's a little sheer gift bag/pouch, and I've photographed it with white card in the middle so that you can see the design-I used a favourite Lavinia stamp and lots of stickles glitter :) The bag is a lovely soft peachy cream colour, so I went for a greyish lavender which hasn't really come out on the photo :(


Hope you join in and show us a decorated bag!

I've got two creations to show you today, and I'll give them both away to someone, so leave a comment to be in with a chance!


The first is a dinky little wooden plaque that I've turned into a magnet- the Visible Image stamps, plaque and star blank all came from That Craft Place. The background of the plaque is painted with acrylic paint, with the bird stamped in archival ink. The star is also painted, with Free heat embossed in white.  A little tip if your white embossing gets a little rough around the edges is to go round the words with a black Promarker to tidy it all up- works magic!


This is a hand doodled card with a Ditzie Digi Design as the main image. I love those little toadstool houses! Sooooo cute.

So- if you fancy me sending you a little package through the post, leave me a comment!

Let me introduce you.......

Have you heard of That Craft Place? No? Well let me introduce you.....

That Craft Place Challenge Blog

It's a looooverly craft shop, with a couple of great pages on Facebook- the Natter and Chatter page is fun!!!

I'm in the Design Team B- and we're up for the next couple of months, providing inspiration for the challenge blog. So- my first challenge is Men! I've gone with face fungus.....


This is from the Indigo Blu set- Mr Fan-tash-tic. For some bizarre reason I decided to stamp in lots of colours.......love the effect, but it was a bit of a pain to do at first- I got into it though. 

So, I bet you've all got a male themed something to show us- pop over and get a-linking :)

Ooh, and if you like this and want to order one....... pop over to my Facebook selling page.

I'm entering this into the Simon Says Wednesday challenge- Father's Day/ Masculine
and the Crafting Musketeers challenge- Stamped image.

40? Nah........

My baby brother was 40 a week or two ago. Not sure how that happened, as I'm only 26....... 


I went for a doodled card- I know he likes them! The little house is Paperartsy.


I replaced the number with a 40, and added lots of cross hatching for shading in green, yellow and orange. I'm posting this as a bit of DT inspiration for the fab That Craft Place blog- nip over for a looksee if you get chance- mind you, be warned, if you spend much time in the online shop, you'll be a few quid lighter!!!! Lovely stuff :)

Dummy

Hello! I've been playing around with this tag for a couple of weeks now, and it's been sat on my desk waiting for inspiration to strike......... but I think I've finished it now!


It's Dum, from the Octopode Tweedledum and tweedledee stamp, but he looked a bit lost without his twin, so I gave him a little dummy.


The background is Distress inked with a fab Ditzzie Design stamp called Honeycomb wire, available from That Craft Place heat embossed in silver. 

I'm entering this into the Simon Says Wednesday challenge- anything goes,
and also into the A Sprinkle of Imagination challenge, which is also anything goes!

New DT, new card!

OK, so I looked at the quality of blogging going on by my new That Craft Place DT buddies and thought I'd better up my game! 

I spent this morning doodling and generally faffing around and made this.....


Paperarsty stamps, ooh how I love those little houses, use them A LOT! The background was a left over bit from something else, but made with Distress Inks and water and splodging (technical term there......). The hill and bubbles and bottom section are all doodled, which makes me happy!

So That Craft Place..... it's a shop physical and virtual, and a bit of a Facebook phenomenon for some of us!
If you fancy a look, try out........
 That Craft Place - the online shop


I'm in Team B, so we'll be lurking and chatting and posting on the Facebook Natter and Chatter group for a couple of months, and then taking over the challenge blog once the A Team have done their thing. Should be fun!!!!

Hope your Sunday has been treating you well, be happy!

You'll never guess what?

Something good's happened. Really, really good. I've been asked to join the design team for That Crafty Place. Look, I gots me my own banner and everything.


Exciting huh? I'm raring to get going! 

Check out the rest of my new team mates at That Craft Place blog!
