Emerald Faeries is the sponsor at Creative Knockouts this week. It seems fitting that our challenge is Winged Wonders. This cute image is named Jewel. I just loved coloring that sweet face! Take a peek at the DT work here and then join us for the challenge!
This week the Creative Knockouts challenge is all about tags. My card uses the image, Support from our sponsor Glitterbabe and Stamping Boutique. I decided to keep this card simple and use pink, black and white. I used Stickles on the bra and a computer generated sentiment. Take a peek at the DT creations here and then play with us.
Good Morning, Creative Knockouts Fans! Birthday Wishes is this week's challenge. Star Stampz is our sponsor; my image, Alice Chibi begged to be made into a belated birthday card. This one went through many iterations on the way to its final look. I had these butterfly button dies and used them as an accent and added glossy accents to the clock faces.
"Animal Antics" is the theme for this week's Creative Knockouts challenge, sponsored by Fabrika Fantasy. These cute kids are a digi named, Little Travelers. My card is a combination of the digi and stamps. I have to admit I was momentarily stumped as a DT member because I didn't look at the theme when I chose my sponsor image (oops!). I went to my trusty stamp stash and dug out a retired SU set called Zoofari and borrowed the snake for my card. The background trees are stamps from Paper Smooches and the stitched frames are from Lil' Inkers. There's lots of fussy cutting on this card and the kids are popped out to look like they are walking out of the picture. It's super-cute IRL.
Take a look at the rest of the DT inspiration here and then play along with us!
Oddball Art is this week's sponsor at Creative Knockouts. This forlorn little girl is named Cassidy. She's going to a friend who is recovering from an operation.
The Etsy shop, Ching-Chou Kuik is sponsoring this week's Lots of Layers Challenge at Creative Knockouts. Their whimsical, fantasy images are delightful to practice coloring on. My image is called Green Frog Elf. Pop in and see what the DT created for you, and then play along with our challenge. You just might win! 
I was so excited to request this image, Baby Shoes Without Laces, from our sponsor Doodle Pantry that I forgot to consider the challenge theme when I made the card, so sadly, my card isn't humorous - but's it's cute right?!? And isn't it a bit humorous that I whiffed on the challenge? So there - a little humor!
Clear It Out/ April 4 - Add a Flower
Back for another Creative Knockouts Challenge. This week's theme Outside Fun and Lacy Sunshine is our sponsor. I'm using their image, Fairy Godmother Sugi. Isn't she darling?? 
With spring comes new babies and this card will help round out my stash. I've used a very old wood block stamp, which never fails to create a great card.
I may have take our Flower Power challenge theme a little too far for this card, but I had an idea and decided to run with it! Do you know those wonderful 3-D sugar eggs with the scene inside? Well, I tried to create one with my card, complete with lots of Stickles to emulate the sugar! The cute Egg Bunny image from our sponsor, Sami Stamps is flat against the card back and the white egg with the flowers glued all around is popped up to give it some dimension. The flowers are supposed to be the icing that's piped all around the hole. I think I have some more playing around to really get this down. I am planning to try it again using a smaller image which will allow me to make a smaller cut opening so more of the egg is visible. If I get it "right", I'll post it on my blog. I hope you will hop on over to the Creative Knockouts Blog and play along with us this week. I can't wait to see what you do with the Flower Power theme!
This week's Creative Knockouts challenge is sponsored by The Paper Shelter. I am using their image, called Hope. I used a darker color for the background so the dove would pop. The shading of her face and eyes came out just lovely - wish I could say the same for the turquoise streaks in her hair. Such is how it goes when playing around with coloring! You can relate, right?!?
My card for this week's Creative Knockouts challenge uses an image from All Dressed Up's Love to Shop collection of girls. She's one I have had in my collection for a while and unfortunately, I can't find her in the ADU Etsy shop right now, but there are enough girls that you could use the same idea for a card design. I have used ADU girls before and paired them with a sentiment. I used the Sugar Cuts Notched Journal Card Die for the heart background and some patterned papers from a Valentine Crate Paper 6x6 stack. Take a peek at the DT inspiration here and then play along with us this week!
Our challenge is all about embossing this week at Creative Knockouts - heat embossing or embossing folders. You don't have to ask me twice to use an embossing folder, so this challenge is right up my alley! Fred, She Said is our sponsor and this image is called Emma the Snowangel. Who doesn't love making snow angels?1? I can't wait to see what you do when you play along with us this week!
The Creative Knockouts challenge this week is sponsored by SLS Lines. Their image, Book Lover was a great one to play around with for me this week. I knew right away I wanted to print the digi on some old SU newsprint I had in my stash and color on the newsprint. I decided to use and oval stitched die to frame my gal and added a computer generated sentiment. A few glittery sequins and some Stickles on the pencils added finishing touches. Who doesn't like sparkle?!? Come and join the DT this week with your own glittery creations!
Happy Thanksgiving to all my fiends in the United States! Creative Knockouts' challenge is all about celebrating! A Day for Daisies is out sponsor. Appropriate to the occasion, I am using Pumpkins and Butterflies. Thanks to Sweet Sunday Sketch for the card design!
This week's Creative Knockouts challenge is "Something to Say" - we'd simply like you to add a sentiment to your card. Image That is our sponsor. They have an assortment of already colored images and black line, so you can do your own coloring. I'm using Joyous Reindeer from their collection.
Inky Impressions sponsoring our Creative Knockouts' Halloween Time challenge. I'm using this cutie, called Anjelica's Giant Pumpkin. Since it's a Halloween challenge, I added a face and created Anjelica's Giant Jack O' Lantern! You have one whole week to play along with a Halloween themed card. I hope you join us!
