I am sad to say, this will be my last post for Delightful Challenges! Delightful Challenges is closing! Wendy is inviting me to stay on her Digital Delights Team and I will post every other Wednesday along with my DT sister Jane once Digital Delights starts back up at the beginning of next year!  It was decided to close the challenge site to devote more time to Digital Delights by Louby Loo designs. Digital Delights by Louby Loo will NOT be going anywhere and will continue to bring you fun and exciting daily posts and new designs.

The challenge for this week is; "Celebrate"! Lets make this a big participation time! Come join in and post your wonderful creations! :)
This here is Gift Giving Susie! She of course can be found at Digital Delights By Louby Loo! She also comes pre colored, if you don't wish to color! Wendy has loads of wonderful cut files as well as all of her digis! She always seems to have great sales, so be sure to check it out!
We wish to thank everyone who has joined in our weekly challenges and hope that you will all stop by each week and see all the amazing designs on the digital delights blog and at www.digitaldelightsbyloubyloo.com

Delightful Challenges- Flurry The Snowman

Wow, do you believe we are only a few more weeks until Christmas! :)
Hi y'all, it's time for another Delightful Challenges! This week the challenge is; "Bundle Up" (Winter Theme)!
I thought I would do something a little bit different this week on my card! I opened the back to stand! I also used my Brayer to create the background!
I am using Flurry The Snowman from Digital Delights By Louby Loo!

I didn't know it, but if you order Flurry the Snowman in JPEG form, he doesn't come with all the detailing on the scarf, hat, and coat! I was totally fine with it though because I always like adding a little bit of detailing myself! He will look like this if you order him in PNG form! He is cute either way! :)
Counting down until Christmas! If you are in need of some cute digis to finish off making those Christmas cards, Digital Delights by Louby Loo really has some really cute images! Go check it out here! Come participate this week also! :)
Hugs, and happy crafting!
Sandy.

My Sheri Crafts Challenge- #147- Oh Christmas Tree

This will be our last challenge for this year at My Sheri Crafts! The challenge, (by my good friend Sue, and DT sister) is, put a tree on your card/project!
I just love Sheri Baldy digis! I always love using one of her images when I can! The trees are from Spellbinder, called Holiday Trees! The stamp is from All Night Media, called Merry Christmas! I used Martha Stewart, Arctic Snowflake!I topped the trees off with Liquid Applique, white! I love coloring the image with my Copics! The bells have Stardust- Gelly Roll- Galaxy,  yellow glitter gel pen! The stamp is all in one and I didn't want all one color on the sentiment, the holly leaves, and the bow! So, I whipped out my markers and colored the stamp with the colors I wanted to use! My daughter taught me that, believe it or not! You kind of have to be quick before the marker dries on the stamp, but it works pretty well!
Anyway, I hope we get lots of participants this go around!
Hope to see you there!
Hugs, and happy crafting!
Sandy.

Layer It

Today at Delightful Challenges, the challenge is, Layer It!
I have to say, I LOVE this image!!! He was just so much fun to color and try and come up with the right stuff to go with him! I wished I would have left some of the white around the image while I was cutting him out! He would have shown up better that way, but I still think it turned out good this way!
This is Jubbly Dragon, and the sentiment that I used is called, Knight and Dragon Sentiment Set! They both can be found at Digital Delights by Louby Loo! What a perfect sentiment to go with the image! :)

I guess I should have taken a side angle, because the polka dot center is sticking out, and the dragon is popping up from that! Hence, layering! ;)

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed today's post! Do come and play along with us this week!
Hugs, and happy crafting!

1, 2, Punch

Today is 1, 2, Punch at Delightful Challenges! I am using Pauly In Paradise, and Sit Back Sentiment from Digital Delights by Louby Loo! This image just shouts to use tropical colors! :)
I love it when I can find the perfect sentiment to go with the image! :) I used EK Success- Postage Stamp, and Martha Stewart- Bangle Chain Trim for my punches that I used! This is the first time I ever used Spellbinders- Jewel Fantasies! I also used Spellbinders- Standard Circles Large! The paper is from EP- called Paradise Beach!
I really had a lot of fun making this card! :)
Do come along and play with us this week!
Hugs, and happy crafting!

I get to show one of new release images called, "Hookie"! He will be found at Digital Delights by Louby Loo!

The paper is called Printery Collection "Signature", by Prima Marketing Inc! The stickers are from Karen Foster Design! I used Liquid Applique on his hat! I wanted to give it some texture!

Challenge #139- Non Traditional Shaped Card

Today's challenge at My Sheri Crafts is to make a non traditional shaped card! I made a graduation gift card holder!
I used Spellbinders, Grand Labels One to make the shape of this card! I just folded it in half! I used Spellbinders, Scalloped Circles, and Standard Circles Small for the eyes, etc!
I cut half the shape in half to make a pocket on the inside to hold money as a gift! It worked out perfectly! :)
I hope you decide to participate this week!
Hugs, and happy crafting!
