Hello Sweet!

Hello lovelies! I have missed you! I am telling being sick is not fun but trying to catch up is worse! lol. I am making some time to join everyone here for a House of Gilli Challenge! I can never make myself to throw away pieces of paper lol..sometimes I have a whole messy pile of little things right next to me. Don’t laugh! lol

This card believe it or not was pieced with a lot of my left overs lol. Gilli Lollipop was colored with copic markers and her lollipop was made with some twine. I wanted to give the lollipop a candy texture so I added glossy accents on the top of it. The picture cannot show that much but in person is nice and shiny and hard like a true candy! The little lace border was made using Ek punch. For the circles I used a fiskars punch…I actually like this punch…it looks like of of those exercises things LOL. The cutsey paper is from Echo Park. The polka dot one I created just by using a white marker :  ).

So how about you put all those little left overs to work? It could earn you a cool gift from us…wouldn’t that be nice? You will be able to say…”It pays off to save the tiny things!” lol.

See yall!

Recycle and Texture Challenge

Hi Everyone!  It’s Wini from LooneyBugDesigns and I am so excited to bring you a new challenge today!  I have been so excited about this challenge.  I love to repurpose stuff and so this is is the perfect challenge for me.  We want you to use something Recycled on your project and incorporate lots of Texture too!

Make sure to link your project in the inlinkz below for your chance to win a GREAT GILLI GOODIE!!  As always you do not have to use a Gilli on your project but if you do you will get 2 entries into the challenge!!  How fun!!

 

Here is my project for you today…

I always color my images but wanted to try something different.  I had some kraft paper left over from another project and decided that this was the project to use it on.  I simply stamped Stole  Gilli on the kraft cardstock and then used some FlowerSoft to add some color and texture to her hat and stole.  All the cardstock and DSP that I used are leftovers from other projects that I had in my scrap bin.  The corrugated piece is part of a box that I cut up and peeled the paper backing off to expose the texture.  The lace is some leftover trim that I thought added another nice texture element to the card.  The letters are chipboard letters that I covered with more scrap paper.  Here is a good picture of all the layers of texture on the card…

I hope you are inspired to try your had at a project using something recycled and some texture too.  Enjoy and don’t forget to enter your project in the Inlinkz below for your chance to win!

 

Hugs, Wini
