A Play Day with Craft Roulette

Our Spin of the Wheel for Episode #166 brought up:
Project: Small Bag - hand bag
Colors: Rainbow - background
Element: Wheel - car wheel
Random: Shimmer - Wink of Stella

I knew which stamps I wanted to use, but not sure how to put them together and finally decided on a Shadow Box card.  I could have my lady with her shopping bag and great old car together. I thought the background stripes fit the rainbow colors for the most part with the purple car adding that great color for a jalopy.

I wish you could see the sparkle on the gal's dress and old car.

Crazy Critter Challenge #75

June Opens with Critters from SheepSki Designs

Challenge - Critters

It's all about the Critters - any kind of critter, just be sure there's a critter on your project as well as using a die-cut machine to cut your images/borders/panels... or to dry emboss some part of your project.

SheepSki Designs is the sponsor for Die Cut Divas this month of June, so please join all the Divas for the challenge. 

  I thought these were just darling critters and I fussy cut these three guys and just had fun coloring them.  I didn't think they would work on red paper, but when I held these three up against the mini-slimline panel, I couldn't use any other paper and I TRIED, but always came back to the red paper.   I always had a mini-slimline card in mind when I sized and printed this digital image out, but I thought I would use a wood type of background to imitate a wood cabin look, but no, this worked out better than I thought.  I really just love it.

Third Tiny Matchbook Card, This one going to Craft Roulette

 My third Matchbook card, but I made it according to Craft Roulette's parameters with the categories being:
Project: Card w/flaps
Colors: Winter colors
Element - Children's story
Random: Tile(s)

I do think there are enough flaps to go around - LOL.  The roof folds down (the BRRRRRR is the bent part of the overhead). Santa and Xmas tree cover the winter colors.  Santa's Workshop or Santa settling in after his flight around the earth delivering presents to all the girls and boys.  Now the tiles are a creation from my own mind.  See all those whit dots on the paper?  Well, those are my tiles.  All in all, I'm happy with it.  There is even a rug under the train.
This is a combination of different matchbox scenes.

Oh, yes, this is a small card with its own envelope.
Close-up below.
