Our theme is always

Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your projects. Please respect that we do not currently accept Instagram or Facebook entries. Only correctly linked blog entries please. 

 This is my project for November. 

I found these  wooden handmade shapes at a thrift market. I do not have any ideas what they were originally made for. 

The shapes were covered in thin sheet of copper  and so areas in thin black  leather or the wood was varnished.

Time for our October Challenge at Crafty Gals corner. The theme of the challenge is as always Anything Goes  with an optional twist/ Trick or Treat.

Hope you will join us this month. Halloween projects can be a lot of fun. 

I have chosen to do a collage of Halloween die cuts for this project. I coloured them with Copic markers, added glitter and gold pen and a rubber stamp for the background. I also used Halloween designer paper from my stash and a couple of rubber stamps for the background.

Welcome to our October 2026 Challenge

 Our theme is always

"Anything Mixed Media Goes"

Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your projects. Please respect that we do not currently accept Instagram or Facebook entries. Only correctly linked.

This is my project for October, a mixed media portrait of my mother. I believe my mom was in her late teens or early 20ies in this picture.  She was station at a air force base in northern Alberta. She had lied about her age to get into the air force. 

This is the background I created for my project. 

To create the background I used

• A 12 X 12 wooden frame
• A crochet that I had made for a different project
• An assortment of Acrylic paints in different colours
• Sparkle Paint
• Heavy paper strips  to create a textured back ground
• From my stash, left over circle frames
• Metal pieces from an old belt painted
• Hand crafted butterflies
• An assortment of decorative flowers from my stash
• Wooden flower head from the dollar store
• Wedding dress beading

Crafty Gals Corner September - Challenge #280 ~ Anything Goes w/optional twist - Fall Foliage

 Crafty Gals Corner September Challenge. The theme of this challenge is Anything Goes with an optimal twist of Fall Foliage. 

This is the little scene I created using a selection of papers and stamps in my stash.

The autumn tree is a stamp from my stash by PSX, The date on the stamp is 1999. I had forgotten about PXS stamps. It must have been purchased about the time I first started crafting cards. The autumn sentiment stamp is  by Hero Arts., dated 2004. 

I remember when PSX and Hero Arts where my favourite stamping companies.  I also used a few of small leaves I cut with a punch. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week. Hope you will join us in the latest challenge. Check out our blog to be inspired by our talented design team over at Crafty Gals Corner.
