we enjoyed all your wonderful creations!
 Check the post below to see the
  Random.org Top 3!
 ---------------------------------------------
Welcome back to the challenge for the month of March~
Wow can you believe how fast this month is flying by....before we know it, Easter will be here!
Anyways~
This week's challenge is:
Inspired By: Anything Goes
a fan favorite I know so I hope to see LOTS of projects being linked up!!!

Of course I have some inspiration but before I share my project I want to thank Molly, Kendra and all the very talented CI Paint DT for a GREAT year! I have decided to step down as the challenge coordinator after sharing my projects with you all for the past year. I have truly enjoyed every minute on this talented team working with these amazing paints but it is time to move on so I am turning the reins over to Diana~ you all know her from DL Art . I know she will do such an awesome job continuing these challenges!
So I leave you with my last piece of inspiration~
A cute Easter card using one of my favorite characters~ Riley the Moose.
Here he is up close~
I embossed him using black ink and Deliquesce Clear Embossing Powder.
After coloring him in using my copics I added some Resplendence Angel Dust glitter to the eggs and the chick :)
I added some silver brads to hold my banner pieces up but wanted to add some color so I painted them using Mint, Tanzanite and Sunshine paint.

I hope you have enjoyed my project and will play along with this week's challenge!!
Remember you do not need to use CI Paints on your projects but if you have them we would LOVE to see how you used them!!
As always thanks for stopping by!!

Thanks to all those who joined in our "Anything Goes" challenge, 
we enjoyed all your wonderful creations!
 Check the post below to see the
  Random.org Top 3 and the February Winner!
 ---------------------------------------------
This week's challenge is:
Inspired By: Go Green
we want to see all your "green" projects~ whether they are St. Patty's day inspired or a fun recycled project
Be creative!!
Here's some inspiration:
I made this fun treat to give to my boys~
I took a clay pot and painted a base coat using some black acrylic paint. Once that was dried I went over the black with some CI Paint in Onyx...I wanted that shimmer that the CI paint gives!
For my sentiment I used my FAVORITE embossing powder~ Deliquesce Black. I just LOVE the look!
To finish off my project I wanted to add some gold brads~ only problem was~ I didn't own any so instead of buying them, I made them! A little recycling here too :)
I took some silver brads and embossed them with Deliquesce Gold Glitter
The picture does not do a good job of showing the sparkle~ but trust me they look AWESOME!!
Here is a close-up of the shamrock I used...couldn't leave him unpainted so I added some Green Olive and another glittered brad

I hope you have enjoyed my project and will play along with this weeks challenge!!
Remember you do not need to use CI Paints on your projects but if you have them we would LOVE to see how you used them!!

I used all CI Paint embossing powder for this card....
Deliquesce Clear for the tag and for the heart
and Deliquesce Gold Crystal for the "u"
Here is a close-up of the embossing that I did....
WOW CI Paint has the BEST embossing powder...so very easy to use and the color that the Gold Crystal gives is something my picture just does not do it justice!!

With the new year days away I thought for today's inspiration I would make a

Thanks so much for all your participation in our challenges and hope you will join in our last challenge for 2012
Now for my project!



I love the fun colors of this card...the black white and gold and when I think of the New Year...the first thing that comes to mind is the countdown....3...2...1~ Happy New Year!

 
Most of my card was done with heat embossing and my favorite
embossing powder~ Deliquesce Black and Deliquesce White
I also added some Deliquesce Gold Crystal as well...LOVE how this added such sparkle and texture 
to my calendar
For the arrows on the clock they were originally white and black but to make them stand out alittle more I painted them with Gold CIP...
