March Challenge - Pot O' Gold


I've been dying to use Moulin Mae in a project, and this month's Pot O' Gold challenge seemed like the perfect opportunity! She looks perfect surrounded by all this glitz and gold, doesn't she?

I created a trefoil background using metallic gold paint and a stencil from Heidi Swapp and used chipboard embellishments covered in Tim Holtz Distress glitter in Antique Linen. You can use anything to participate - papers, embellishments, image coloring - and just enter here and you'll be golden! (See what I did there?)

And don't forget about the newsletter, or the new Facebook group! There is some amazing deals and inspiration to be had all over the SOG community!

January Challenge - Tag! You're it!

Hello there! So, welcome to my first post of the new year! Today I bring you my project for the Some Odd Girl January monthly challenge. The theme this month is to work a tag (or tags) into your creation! I did a kid's birthday card with this one and made a pocket on the front to hold the tag. I think it's great for a young kid who likes to read REAL books because they can take the tag out and use it as a bookmark!

I used the lion and sentiment from the recently released clear set On Safari and the birthday sentiment from Birthday Mae.

I'm excited to see what the rest of you do with this challenge! Don't forget to enter your project here and you could win this month's prize!

SOG-Monthly Challenge-Create your own background

Hullo there! We have a new challenge for you this month over at the Some Odd Girl blog! This month the challenge is to make your own background! You can use anything. Stamps, inks, Washi, whatever you want! For my contribution, I went ALL background and used ALL THE STAMPS!! Okay, maybe not all of them, but most of them....


It was a lot of fun making this card background, taking all the sentiment stamps and setting them up to fit together into a cool pattern. What do you think of the results? The stamps I used are listed here: Everyday Smiles, Make A Statement, Geisha Kaylee, Moulin Mae, Artist Mae, Hey Mae, Puppy Love Mae, Thank You Mae & Dare to Be Gwen....I think that covers it. HA!

SOG- November Challenge - Speech Bubbles

What's that? It's not Turkey Day yet? And it's still 89 degrees outside? But I'm in the mood for Christmas! And what better way to project my wintery thoughts than with a holiday card?

This month's challenge at Some Odd Girl is to make a project using speech bubbles (which you can now find in the SOG shop *wink wink, nudge nudge*) For this project I used the cut files released last week along with the amazing HollyDay Gwen stamp. Isn't she just a doll in all that icy blue?
