Happy Birthday To Us

Happy Birthday To Us

Happy Birthday Dear CRAFT Challenge

Happy Birthday To Us!

Can you believe it? CRAFT Challenge is already 4 years old. Originally started by Tracy from Just Tracy Crafts and with a DT mostly recruited from Trimcraft forum members (Hence the term CRAFT Challenge, which stood for Crafters Residing Are Friendly Trimmies. Or if you wished alternative meaning of Can't Remember A Flipping Thing) on the 4^th of May 2009.

We have now grown to be a large team of Design Team Members from all around the world, supplemented with lots of Guest Designers who join us for a month at a time.

We have always welcomed all kinds of craft, not just paper craft (unless specifically stated so in the challenge at the time) and are happy to have such a large group of faithful followers.

I thought it was time for some more digis again. The ones created today are with Mothers' Day in mind and have some sentiments to go with them. They are also to be entered into the  Digital Drawing Challenges at CDAC .

Hope you like them. It was great fun to be able to do some crafting again today.

Here is the second one.




A simple rose, which also will do for Birthday cards I guess.

Love,

Jo.

And here is my last digistamp to share with you today. Again feel free to use it for your personal use, leave my signature on, do not claim as your own and if you would like to share it, direct people to my blog instead.

I used another photo as an example for this image drawn by myself, as I'm not the best at drawing, proportions are not quite right, but I think it's a sweet image anyway.

There are 2 versions, one with and one without sentiment. An example of a card made with this image can be found here on my sister blog 'Trimgym's card and stuff'.

Have fun playing with my images, do leave a comment when you download any of them and I would love to see your creations using them.

Digistamp to suit a birthday card for a baker.

Good evening all,

Here is my next offering to you. I created this digistamp with my other brother-in-law who is baker (specialises in cakes). I have created a few different ones, Dutch and English to suit as you like, also without text on the window for those who prefer that.

You can find the card I did for him here on my other blog.

As always feel free to use for personal use, do not claim as your own, leave my signature on and if you want to share, please direct your friends to my blog.

Thank you for looking, all comments very welcome and much appreciated.

Have a great weekend.

Love,

Jo.

An image for a birthday message for a dog lover.

Good evening everyone,

I just made a little bit of time to upload another one of my digistamps. This one I did at the end of November for a birthday card for my mother. She has a Rhodesian Ridgeback called Ridgie and I used him to model for this image. I had a photo of him and my female Ridgeback from a few years back and drew him as well as I can. Just added a party hat and whistle and done.

Hope you like Birthday Ridgie.

First I'll give you the digistamp:

And here is the coloured in version adapted to be a 3D decoupage sheet:

Last, but not least the backing paper I created to go with the image.

You can find the card I made for my mum with this image here on my other blog.

As before, feel free to use the images for your personal use, keep my signature on the stamps when using, do not claim as your own and if you would like to share them, direct them to my blog for that.

Thank you for looking, all comments very welcome and much appreciated.

Love,

Jo.

First uploaded digistamp, Manager's Birthday.

Ok, so now I've made this new blog for my digistamps and images, it's time to upload one. This is one of the first ones I made, as the first was a Guy Fawkes image, it's probably best to leave that one to later in the year.

Here is Manager's Birthday.

I made this one for my brother-in-law, who is a manager. Hope you like the image. Just click on the image to open a larger version and save on your computer for later use if you like it. As mentioned in the sidebanner, for personal use only and leave my signature on it when using it. Don't claim it as your own and if you would like to share it with anyone, please direct them to my blog.

You can find the card I made with this image here on my other blog.

Have a great 2010 and I will upload another digistamp at a later stage.

Thank you for looking, all comments very welcome and much appreciated.

Love,

Jo.
