This month’s adorable image comes from Oddball Art. This ghostie is soooo adorable! The set also came with a fun sentiment so I just rolled with it…

As you can see, the background has boos written all over it. And if you look closely has his dapper bow tie you can see I did a little paper piecing using a digi paper with little tiny ghosties as well! I did a little fussy cutting of the ghost and his bow tie using a bit of foam to pop the tie up.
So much fun!

Progressive Freebie Challenge: September 2022

Velvet shadows come and go,
Drifting, whisp'ring breezes,
Winged adieus that sadly blow,
Wave the shadow friezes:
Ghostly branches, bare of leaves,
Gently bend in sorrow;
Summer's parting kiss deceives—
Winter comes tomorrow.
~W. Dayton Wegefarth (1885–1973), "Autumn," Rainbow Verse: A Book of Helpful Sunny Philosophy, 1919

Glittering Easter Eggs

The joyful news that He is risen does not change the contemporary world.  Still before us lie work, discipline, sacrifice.  But the fact of Easter gives us the spiritual power to do the work, accept the discipline, and make the sacrifice.  ~Henry Knox Sherrill

Good morning!
I’m a day late with this posting but the March Progressive Freebie Challenge at The Outlawz Challenges has begun!

Each month we send you a free digital image to use in the Freebie/Progressive challenge. Once your creation is completed, upload it into the freebie challenge and you will automatically receive the next month free digi. We will have one image per month so you have plenty of time to create a project using the image.

If you would like to participate, please register with your name and email address to: outlawzprogressivechallenge@gmx.com

Our image this month comes from our very own Sandra who has created a fun Easter Egg scene for us to play with.

I love this adorable image and thought it would look fun done up in glitters, so with my basket of glitters and a bit of patience, I carefully glued and glittered away!

How fun is this! I think I may have to make up some more!



Supplies: 
  • Image printed on Stampin Up! Whisper White card stock
  • Card stock (White) from The Paper Studio & (Rose) from Core’dinations
  • Glitter from The Oriental Trading Company
