Born To Be Wild

Time Out Challenge #108 goes live today with a theme of WILD.

Challenge sponsor is Winnie & Walter. Winner will receive a $25 gift voucher to spend in the Winnie & Walter store.

Our Guest Designer is the wonderfully fun and talented Darnell of djkardkreations. She will be with us for the challenge and reminder posts. If you don't know Darnell, you really must meet her. In any case, visit her blog for a real treat! You will be so glad you did!

For my card, I used a free digi download from Winnie & Walter for the background. It felt wild and jungle-like to me. I heat embossed the tiger on a white stitched circle die cut with metallic copper embossing powder, and die cut a gold metallic circle to frame it. The image and sentiment are from Happy Little stampers Born To Be Wild.

Please head over to the Time Out Challenge Blog and see what the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Then get wild and create something to share in our gallery.

Joy To The World

December has arrived, and it's time for a new set of challenges at Happy Little Stampers.

The December Christmas Challenge is Anything goes with an optional twist of stencil.

I went for the twist in a new-to-me way. I used the Inked Stencil Dry Embossing technique that you can check out HERE. For the background, I inked the Hero Arts Festive Star and Bauble stencil with Delicata Golden Glitz ink and ran it through my Cuttlebug. The sentiment is done with Winnie & Walter's In A Word: Joy Cutaway and PTI Luxe Gold Adhesive paper along with part of a sentiment from Impression Obsession Clear Stamps Peace On Earth set.

The winner for this challenge will receive a $20 coupon to spend at the Happy Little Stampers shop! Check out all the details HERE.

Please head on over to the Happy Little Stampers December Christmas Challenge and check out the gorgeous creations by the Design Team. Soak in some inspiration and create a holiday card and link it up in the gallery for a chance to win!
