Crazy4Challenges - C4C481

Thanks for playing along with my challenges this month. I hope it's been fun! Can you believe it's the last week of April already? It's flown by for me, the warmer months always do! For this week, I decided to return to the trend of metallics and combine it with another huge trend

FOILING!

Here are some tutorials that use heat foiling along with several other options.

Foiling with Glue

Simple No-Heat Foil Techniques

Foil Backgrounds

Introduction to Minc Machine

Foil Die Cuts 3 Ways

If you don't like to or don't have the supplies for foiling, try looking through your washi, stickers, chipboard shapes or patterned paper for foiled elements. If all else fails, use mirror cardstock which has a similar look.

Be sure to thank this month's guest designer, Cindy Lawrence, for joining us this month. Her cards were amazing and her colouring so inspiring!

Welcome back to Crazy 4 Challenges! I loved all of your entries for last week's challenge!

 

This week, the 3rd of the month, we have a sketch as usual. Feel free to take the sketch and flip, rotate, mirror or switch it to portrait orientation. As long as we can see you were inspired by the elements on the sketch.

Crazy4Challenges - C4C478

Thanks for stopping by for our latest challenge! Wow, can you believe it's April? Spring is finally here. It was a long winter.

I'm Rebecca Ednie and it's my month to host. I hope you enjoy the challenges I've dreamed up for you. We have the AMAZING Cindy Lawrence playing along with the Crazy Team as a Guest Designer this month. She's a Copic Traveling Instructor so expect lots of awesome colouring! Leave her a comment of welcome here or pop on over to her blog.

Metallics are all the rage in crafting, home décor and fashion. For this week's challenge, use at least 3 metallic embellishments or accents. They can be made of metal or just look like metal.
