Bargello Snail

This week's challenge over at the Hambo Hoedown is to use Snail Rake with any technique from the Splitcoaststampers Resources Page to make a project. There are so many great techniques, but one I've been wanting to try is the Bargello Technique. This technique is borrowed from needlepoint to create an interesting background with thin strips of paper Here's my Bargello snail...

It didn't turn out quite like I thought it would, but it made an interesting background. I think one of my papers should have been a more solid design and maybe a little darker. It was a fun and easy technique. I plan to try it again and see if I can get a more needlepoint looking effect. 

New Release Day

It's NEW RELEASE DAY at Whimsie Doodles! The new images are so cute and I know you will love them!! There are elves, fairies and expecting moms. Here's my project using Hiding Elfling.

Isn't she cute? I paper pieced her dress and hat. I used a cutting file from The Cutting Cafe called Present Treat Box. This will be perfect for a small gift or even a gift card.

You can check out all of the adorable new digis, and incredible samples from the rest of the Doodlelicious Divas here.

Sneaky Snippet

Tomorrow is NEW RELEASE day for November at Whimsie Doodles , and today I have a sneaky snippet to share with you!  Can you guess what the image is? 

Be sure to check back tomorrow and see what I made with this cute digi. I think you'll like it!

Have a Fabulous Friday!

The Party's Over - Almost!

Bombshell Stamps Forum Relaunch Party is almost over. There were lots of games and challenges. I hope you got to play along with some of them. I combined two of the challenges, Mary's Howl at the Moon challenge and Kelli's recipe challenge and made this card

Both challenges were fun. Mary challenged us to use a moon on our project. I punched a large circle as a mask and sponged ink to make the background and moon. Then I punched tiny circles so the yellow cardstock would show through to make the stars. Kelli's recipe was to use 4 circles - the moon and stars, 3 ribbons - the silver cord, 2 Bombshell images - Hawaiian girl and the palm tree and1 tag- the silver Aloha.

If you got to play along, I hope you enjoyed the party.
