Sarah Hurley 365 Challenge - My Favourite Things

Hello there, how are you?

We have a new challenge over on the Sarah Hurley 365 Blog today set by the lovely Jaine, the theme for this months challenge is...

My Favourite Things.

Here's what I made....

So here's my explanation of how this fits with the theme, I've used one of my favourite colours - hot pink, a photo of my favourite Summer shoes - super comfy navy and white striped canvas wedges that tie with a red and white spotty ribbon and I've used the Walking on Sunshine card as the title as it's the title of one of my favourite Summer songs (Please note Crafty Alchemy accepts no responsibility for you humming this song to yourself or singing it loudly for the rest of the day :D).

All of the papers used come from Sarah's A Few Of My Favourite Things kits, I added lots of yellow brads from my own stash.

You have until Midnight 27th August to enter and winners will be announced on 28th August. All you have to do is create something within the theme of My Favourite Things and link it up to the challenge post on the 365 blog, don't forget there is a special extra prize for one entry using Sarah Hurley products.

Have fun and good luck.

Sarah Hurley 365 Challenge - Celebrate

Well hello there, how are you on this sunny Tuesday evening?

We have a new challenge over on the Sarah Hurley 365 blog this month and you still have time to enter. The theme for this month is ...

CELEBRATE 

There's a really great reason this theme was picked for this month, it was 4 years ago in July when Sarah started the original Sarah Hurley Challenges Blog, I joined the team 6 months later and Sarah's never been able to get rid of me since Bwahahaha!

I decided what better way to celebrate than to throw a party, and how do you announce a party? Why, invitations of course....

First thing I did was cut a piece of yellow cardstock to 6x4 inches and doodled a border around the edge, next I cut a piece of turquoise paper from one of Sarah's AFOMFT kit slightly smaller than 6x4 inches, I also doodled a stitched border around the edge. I made some bunting by folding small pieces of neon pink tape around pink and white bakers twine and then cutting out a little triangle from each to get the banner shape, I attached the bakers twine to the back of the turquoise paper using tape and then stuck this to the yellow card using double sided tape.

I stamped the Princess Girl Doodle Doll and coloured her in with Promarkers (Blush, Dusky Pink, Vanilla, Pastel Lemon, Mustard, Rose Pink & Orchid) I then used 3d foam pads to attach her to the card. 

I used the Block Alpha Stamp set to stamp "you are invited" onto scraps of paper from the AFOMFT kits, as a  finishing touch I sprinkled some silver stars over the top & glued them down where they landed.

All you need to do to enter is create something on a Celebration theme - remember there's an extra prize for using Sarah's products on your entry - and link up to this post here before midnight on 28th July. You can see all of the DT creations here too.

Thanks for stopping by & hope to see you soon.
