Basic Grey Challenges - Wish Upon a Star

We have a new challenge starting today over on Basic Grey Challenges. We would love to see you use stars somewhere on your project. It can be any material, or even in your image! 

Remember, to qualify for the prize you MUST use some Basic Grey! I have mixed both Indie Bloom and Out of Print 6x6 paperpads. 

The sweet image is from The Stamp Fairy and it was originally coloured up for the last Colour Me Creative Challenge, which was Colours of Love, but with being away at the CHA convention I didn't get to make my card. I would be just SUCH a shame to waste it! 

 

I hand drew and hand cut out some stars from my papers and adhered them with 3D foam dots and layered them in among my flowers. I also punched a butterfly to match.

Basic Grey Challenges - Favourite Things

Our challenge this fortnight over on Basic Grey Challenges is "FAVOURITE THINGS". We would like to see you using all the things you love most in making your projects !  

You MUST use a Basic Grey product somewhere in your creation and please let us know which BasicGrey product you used in your blog post.

As always, our wonderful sponsor Simon Says Stamp is offering one lucky winner a fab $25 shopping spree in the Simon Says Superstore 

On my card today I used a Fairy image which the very generous Victoria Case sent to me. She is offering this freebie to her Facebook fans and in return all she asks is that you colour it up and post it to her wall. 

My papers are Basic Grey Indie Bloom 6x6 and my favourite things are Fairies, Ribbon, Flowers, Glitter & Bling.
