City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 302 ~ I'm Working on my PhD

Hello crafters, I don't know about you, but I often started a project, and then lost my mojo, so the project would sit somewhere in my craft room, often time, I have more than one project lying silently with tears in a dark corner......

So, today I am working on my PhD (Project Half Done), will you join me please?

Dig out a project that was half way done and complete it!

~ Kirsty

Please meet.....

Evy 

-->

Hello! My name is Evy and i'm a teacher/crafter. I live in a small town in the east of Belgium. I'm single, but that makes it much more easier to hord craft-supplies ;-) I've been drawing since the moment i could hold a pencil. Cardmaking is something i've learned, when my little sister had to make her own Christmas-cards with tea-bags at school. I went from tea-bags to 3D, from 3D to stamping, and haven't stopped making cards ever since. 

I like experimenting with all kinds of techniques and materials an love watching you-tube-tutorials. There's only one thing that 'll never change: i like lots of color!

I'd like to thank the amazing DT for having me this week as a guest designer! If you want to see more of my cards, come and visit me: http://artsandeve.blogspot.com Can't wait to see all of your creations!

Such beautiful work Evy!

Please stop by Evy's blog to say hello!

Andie Miller

Hello City Crafters!  Andie Miller here again for my last week as a guest designer.  The weeks have flown by and I hope that means you know a little about me. If not, please stop by my blog, Contagiously Crafty, located at viralscrap.blogspot.com. I've so enjoyed being here with all of you and the lovely, kind comments received and given over the weeks.  I'm going to finish strong and hope that this card is an inspiration to you.  I'll sure try to hop around to your blogs and leave a comment.  All the lovely creations with such different takes on the challenges has inspired me to be more adventuresome in my crafting.   Thank you so much to the City Crafters for asking me to be a guest here this month.  I am truly honored to be among such a diverse and creative group. 

My project this week was inspired by the polka dots in the image and the challenge.  I considered going the route of a baby card.  However, I've no need for a baby card so I found some embossed paper in the stash and let a little watercoloring into the picture (soft like the inspiration, yes?!).  It's my last week - I'm looking forward to the WOW that has occurred each and every week as I see what your take on the challenge looks like.  Now - go get crafting!

This is our final week to have Andie as our special guest star, we want to send a big THANK YOU over to you Andie, thanks for being our fabulous guest star for the month of February!

  You can follow Andie's blog and continue to visit her for her wonderful creation!

Hello City Crafters!  Andie Miller here again to join the City Crafter Challenge blog as a guest designer.  I am a wife of 22 years to my wonderful husband, Dan, and mother to our two beautiful, talented and smart children, Tim and Katie.  I've crafted and written on my blog, Contagiously Crafty located at viralscrap.blogspot.com, since 2010. My full time job can be consuming - often requiring lots of commitment.  Crafting is my stress relief, creative outlet and joy.  I don't often join challenges, but try to hop around the internet leaving comments to encourage others and spread the crafting "bug".   Thank you so much to the City Crafters for asking me to be a guest here this month.   My project was inspired by the challenge - to use the negative space created by a die but.  So I turned to one of my favorite techniques - the shaker card.  Let's see what you do with turning Negativity into a good thing!

Thank you once again Andie!

Please stop by Andie's blog and leave her some love!

Hello City Crafters!  My name is Andie Miller and I have the distinct pleasure to join the City Crafter Challenge blog all month long as a guest designer.  I am a wife of 22 years to my wonderful husband, Dan, and mother to our two beautiful, talented and smart children, Tim and Katie.  I've crafted and written on my blog, Contagiously Crafty located at viralscrap.blogspot.com, since 2010.  I work full time at a demanding job which requires lots of commitment.  Crafting is my stress relief, creative outlet and joy.  I don't often join challenges, but try to hop around the internet leaving comments to encourage others and spread the crafting "bug".   I am thrilled to be able to join you this week as we are inspired by Kirsty's Paris centric photo inspiration.  I chose to work with a Eiffel Tower stamp set that I had on hand.  Thank you so much to the City Crafters for asking me to be a guest here this month.  I cannot wait to see what inspires you in the photo - the colors, the sentiment, the script, etc.  Now, it's your turn to get crafting!

 

 Please hop over to Andie's blog, I promised you will be thrilled by her wonderful creation
