The Outlawz Crash your Stash Challenge: Charms

You know you have found love when you can't find your way back. ~Robert Brault, rbrault.blogspot.com 

Good morning!

We have a new Crash your Stash Challenge starting at The Outlawz Challenges and our Sponsor this month is Oddball Art with a prize of a $10 gift code

Our cue this month is charms. 

I actually purged quite a few charms I had … there were just so many so I gifted them on to someone else. But I do still have some and rarely use them even though they are a nice little touch to a card,

 

I loved using this fun image from Lizzy .. I really like the looks of VW buses and was extremely happy to have this one to create with.

For giggles I made this to be an anniversary card for my husband as we celebrate 35 years later this month. The inside says “make life fun”.

You can see here the shimmer I added with the FSJ silk. Just splatted it right over the ink.

Supplies:

• Image Hippie Flower Power Peace Van, Image No.312 printed on Stampin Up! whisper white card stock
• Cardstock for base from Neenah
• Design paper from Color Bok and DCWV
• Die from Close to My heart
• India Ink from Memories
• Liquid silk from Fun Stampers Journey
• Neon ink from Tsukineko
• ProMarkers
• Sentiment from The Angel Company
• Stamps from Prima
• Stash: Flower charm and Twine 
• Sketch by me
  
  
  
  
  

Now come on over to The Outlawz Challenges to play along with us or one of the other challenges that are always in process!

You'll Never Walk alone ...

He who has faith has... an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well — even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly. ~B.C. Forbes

Our Song/Rhyme for this challenge was selected by Margaret

You'll Never Walk alone

When you walk through a storm

Hold your head up high

And don't be afraid of the dark

At the end of a storm

There's a golden sky

And the sweet silver song of a lark

Walk on through the wind

Walk on through the rain

Though your dreams be tossed and blown

Walk on, walk on

With hope in your heart

And you'll never walk alone

You'll never walk alone

Walk on, walk on

With hope in your heart

And you'll never walk alone

You'll never walk alone

Tis the Season ...

A cup of ale,

A merry tale Of days of olden time,

And Christmas good cheer To wind up the year

With glad frolic, and fun, and glee.

This Fortnight challenge comes from Susan!

I’d like to be a Teabag

l’d like to be a teabag,
And stay at home all day –
And talk to other teabags
In a teabag sort of way . . .

l’d love to be a teabag;
And lie in a little box –
And never have to wash my face
Or change my dirty socks . . .

l’d like to be a teabag,
An Earl Grey one perhaps,
And doze all day and lie around
With Earl Grey kind of chaps.

l wouldn’t have to do a thing,
No homework, jobs or chores –
Comfy in my caddy
Of teabags and their snores.

l wouldn’t have to do exams
l needn’t tidy rooms,
Or sweep the floor or feed the cat
Or wash up all the spoons.

I wouldn’t have to do a thing,
A life of bliss – you see . . .
Except that once in all my life

I`d make a cup of tea!

By Peter Dixon

  

Lots of things going on in my personal life right now so I am, frankly, behind on EVERYTHING! I realized suddenly that I had a card due for this challenge. Since I did not have time to print and color and image I when without for this round.
