CDAC Progressive Freebie Challenge 3

Hi my fellow crafty people....

So this is the third installment for the freebie challenge for CDAC. I managed to missed the second due to life's unforeseen troubles, however I was able to buy back in for just a buck!!! Isn't that amazing, I think so. Anyhow, they gave out some amazing images and again I almost missed the deadline due to life's unforeseen lil' troubles...but ha! not so fast, I managed to squeeze right in there and was able to submit my work. Which I am really proud of. Fall is one of my favorite holidays, not only because it is my birthday, or because it is Halloween, but because when I was up north (which I hope to be back soon) I was able to experience the difference in seasons. Being from Miami, FL. you really don't get to experience the different seasons as you do up north. In Miami, all you really get to see is Spring and Summer, the humidity, rain, and heat. For fall there is no changing of color in leaves or falling leaves for that matter. So, I was really excited when I saw one of the images was a woodland fairy. I put my creative juices working and came up with this:

Well I hope that you all enjoy because I have entered it in the CDAC Progressive Freebie Challenge amongst many other very talented people. Enjoy and Happy Fall!!!

Updates and Great News

Hi my fellow craft partners in crime....lol

I have a few updates for all of you, so here they go:

#1 I have posted new jewelry inventory in my zibbet store which you can all check out. I will be having a sale very soon. I am still trying to upload some holiday kits that I want to have ready before the sale as well as some card making kits for the holidays, each card making kit will include 2 cards with envelopes (white) and themed paper to go with the given holiday. Looking forward to having Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Card Kits...who knows might even throw in a New Years one. So stay tuned for that!!!

#2 This month is my Birthday!!! Yay!!! Due to it being my birthday, I will be organizing a blog hop, however, my Birthday is on October 8 and the blog hop is for Halloween. But it's great because Halloween is one of my favorite holidays and I get to celebrate it this year doing a blog hop. I am really excited about that. If you would like to participate in the blog hop please let me know by sending me an email to beautydecade@gmail.com. We will be having some awesome sponsors which will be great more of that to come once I have a concrete list. However, a sneek peak will involve digi images, crafts, and much more.

#3 Here are some more Halloween Cards, I have been working on for the past week or so for CCL ...

Anything Goes-But with a Bonus Challenge: DT Project

It's that time again...yup, challenge time and this time it's an "Anything Goes-But with a Bonus". Nettie G is having this amazing challenge. So what's the BONUS you ask? Well, if you use a Nettie G's image, you get three, not two entries into the random winner draw. That's three chances per creation with a Nettie G's image.

Check out my DT inspiration for this Nettie G's Challenge.

Trick or Treat

Trick or Treat...

Halloween is coming and I am super excited as this is one of my favorite holidays!!! Yay! I have been working on some pretty awesome Halloween knick knacks for some September Swaps I am participating in. One of them is over at Creating the Crafty Life, which if you haven't checked out you should definitely do so. We are having a card swap and I have been pondering for weeks because I really wanted to make this a fun project and make some cards that I know I would love as well as others. Well, enough babbling and lets see the cards. I have only made one of the sets of 5 and still working on creating the second sets but have had some things come up in my personal life that I must attend to first. But anyhow, I promise this time I will show you FINALLY, the ones I have created thus far. I hope you enjoy!!!

DT Project for Nettie G Digital Gems

Here is a DT project I made with one of Nettie G's Digital Gems Digi Images. She has some amazing heart-warming images and I could not resist and use this Sewing Christmas Tree. As a Fashion Designer from NYC one of the things I miss the most right now is Designing and when I saw this digi image it truly made me happy again. Amongst this one they have may different artsy ones which you must check out!!!

Here is my Turquoise Sewing Tree Card

This was my DT project for this month. Look back every month for more updates and Project and be sure to check out their Digi Images :)

Happy Scrappin!!!
