Squigglefly Challenge #50, SFC5012 Anything Goes with a Sentiment
Welcome to the Squigglefly Challenge Blog!
Hello everyone. Welcome to Squigglefly for the last challenge of 2012! Are you ready for this week's challenge? Well first let me tell you about last week's winner. The contest last week was to use the traditional christmas colors, red and green, in your creation. The winner in last week's challenge was Gail Scott for creating a sweet card using Winter House on a Hill by artist Rich Davis.
The winner can contact Holly from Squigglefly at [email protected], for your prize.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, on to this week's challenge, SFC5012 Anything Goes with a Sentiment!
This week's theme is Anything Goes with a Sentiment. So, just create a card in any theme but please include a sentiment on your card. You can use one of those great .99 sentiments from Squigglefly or you can make up your own! Squigglefly has lots of images that come with fun matching sayings or you can use a stamped saying or printed embellishment as your sentiment.
Let's start with some examples made by the Holley Hobbyists:
Pat Martin crafted this beautiful card using artist Elizabeta Kushner's stamp called Christmas Candle. She added a wonderful Peace on Earth sentiment. This stamp is one from our brand new artist! Be sure and check out Elizabeta's new stamps.
Jan Marshall created a wonderful card with a beautiful saying "Make your holidays sparkle & shine!" What a gorgeous border she added. The pretty stamp is from artist Fawn Palmer and is called "A Tinsel Angel." The saying comes with the stamp and it also includes an additional saying, "May the simple joys of the season be yours." Just $3.00 for the wonderful image and two sentiments!
Elizabeth Hart designed a wonderful holiday themed card using an adorable holiday image from artist Fawn Palmer. This image is called A Sleepy Gift and comes with the Fairy Merry Christmas sentiment! I just love how her present looks like wrapping paper, and complete with a tiny elf hat on the sentiment.
Charlene Mitchell designed this pretty Christmas card. She's using a Merry Christmas sentiment from artist Jess Holland and that adorable Polar Bear is from a wonderful set of stamps called Polar Pack by Brian Lock. That set has five different bear designs in it! I love the printed paper she used as her blue background. Gorgeous.
And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog) used a great image from artist Fawn Palmer. This adorable little girl is from A New Teddy Bear. The image comes with the adorable sentiment shown.
I hope these cards have inspired you to make a card to play along this week. You are always welcome to play no matter what images you use, but to be eligible for the prize, please use at least one stamp from Squigglefly!

Charlene Mitchell designed this pretty card using amazing printable papers from the Inger Harding Paper Collection Joyful Christmas Collection . The image she is using is called Baby it's Cold Outside from artist Fawn Palmer. What a delightful combination.
And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog) used a great image from artist Diane Carubia called Big Sister Babs. This image doesn't have to be used for Christmas theme, but I colored her up in light blue/greens and added her to a snowflake card with flocked handmade paper from India and adorable tiny decorative buttons. She sure looks Christmas-y now!
