Magical Monday - Color Challenge

The special person to receive the random drawing prize for participating in last weeks challenge is: Gloria Westerman

Please send me your address at magicintheair@att.net so I can get this out to you. CONGRATS and ENJOY!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010 to everyone!! We are kicking of the New Year with a great DT and GD! Sue Walsh and Patti J. Gilliam will be joining our DT and Lisa Foster will be with us for the month of January as our GD! Make sure you continue to go to our Designer's blogs for all the details for their cards, plus you get to see all their other wonderful and inspiring creations! Plus, don't forget to check out my store Paper Cupcakes for images you have never seen and can't get else where!

This month we are kicking off images with hearts for Valentine's. This image you might have to look a little harder for the hearts, but this image will make a great card no matter how you use it; as you can very well see with the all creations below!

(C) "Painted Pony"
(left click, then right click "save as" the larger image)




Patti Nelson brings us this week's challenge. She wants you to use the "Painted Pony" image and use the colors below on the chart for your card/project.
I believe these are Stamping Up colors, but you do not need these particular inks, just use colors that come close and stay with the theme. We realize that some colors may vary depending what materials you are using, but that is OK, a lot of us did not have SU inks.

COLOR CHALLENGE
Use these colors to create your card/project:

I found this a great image to play with and once again I am glad I color these images myself, because I found out that when I colored it, that I left the lines off the back upper leg on the leg setting behind the pony! :o). The designers got the one without the lines and I colored mine yesterday and noticed it, so the image here the lines have been added! Not, sure why I told you that, but I can see why it is important to color your own images you create for little things like that! :O) OK, so let's see those "Painted Ponies"!!

Magical Monday - Happy New Year, Something Sparkling

The special person to receive the random drawing prize for participating in last weeks challenge is: Roberta Smith

Please send me your address at magicintheair@att.net so I can get this out to you. CONGRATS and ENJOY!

I hope that this week finds all of you doing well and I truly hope you all had a blessed Christmas and you got to share it with the ones you love and hold dear. I know I certainly did.

This week is also Leigh Anne's last week on the Designer Team. Please make sure you continue to stop by Leigh Anne's blog to check out her lovely creations. Although you might have to give her a few months since she is in the process of moving into a new home!! THANKS a lot Leigh Anne we certainly will miss you!

This week's challenge has a little different twist to it. Since I have been giving away free images for 5 months now, I have given away 20 free images! How great is that?! So, this week along with Nilla's challenge listed below you can use "ANY" one of my images you have acquired over the last 5 months or you can use this freebie "Orson with Cake" (which was my very first freebie), or you can buy a new one from my store Paper Cupcakes. Regardless of what image you choose to use, it must be one of my images. (*)

(C) "Orson with Cake"
(left click, then right click "save as" the larger image)
"Orson with Cake" is no longer available for free... if by chance you missed this freebie, you can now find this image in my store Paper Cupcakes)

Nilla brings us this weeks challenge. Of course she wants you to use a Paper Cupcakes Image (see above paragraph (*) and she is thinking "Happy New Year - Something Sparkling!" Use blings, stars, glitter or something typically used for the New Year on your card. Your card does not necessarily have to be for New Years, just reflecting the challenge as stated.

The prize for this week’s random drawing for whoever participates in this weeks challenge and links their work back here is:


Each Designer got to pick out the image that they wanted to work with this week. The name and link to their image in my store is listed below their project.
