Sharon DT - Paper Piecing Challenge

Good morning Bloggers!

I hope you are all well and enjoying our Current Challenge of Paper Piecing!

It is so easy to do and so much quicker than coloring and the effects on your images are just amazing.

I paper pieced this image from the Winter Collection called Winter 10 (You can find and buy her here: Winter Collection) using some Christmas DP Paper. I decided to make my own shaker card by die cutting card and using foam tape and snowflakes acetate to cover the window.  I used white glitter in the shaker, which I'm afraid you cannot see on the photo.

If you would like to know more of what I used please see my blog here :  Sharon's Blog

Here is what I made:

To enter the FitzTown Current challenge please go here : FitzTown Blog

Have fun and can't wait to see what you have created using this fabulous technique!

Thursday DT



Judy here, this is my Thursday DT card to the current challenge Paper Piecing.
I made this card with an image from the Stardust and Pumpkin collection.

I first printed and cut out my image in a fine patterned peach paper. My next step was to print and cut out the dress  and hair band in a coordinating green and peach dotted pattern paper. Once I added the dress and hairband to my image, I coloured her wings and hair with my Copic Markers. 

To complete my card, I added my image to layers of coordinating papers, added some faux stitching, bling and a flower.

Have a creative day Judy!

Fairy Love

Good morning everyone.  Tanya here to share a little something with you all :)  I had colored in one of the many amazing fairy images a couple weeks ago and I loved the colors so much I recreated it for this week's card and then applied it to a very simple black & white card

(sorry for the blurry picture, camera wasn't cooperating :( )

I add some black & white flowers, swirls, black lace and some bling to the flowers center to help make the image pop.

Hi my name is Bettina and I am a mother of two girls aged 3.5 and 5.5 years. I live with my hubby and kids in Stavanger, Norway and am absolutely thrilled to make it as  a GDT for Fitztown this month!! Can hardly wait to start colouring up these gorgeous images. I  started crafting late 2009, and really got hooked by 2010. I usually make cards, folded and/or shaped ones and sometimes I decide that I want to make bags or boxes as well. I don't go anywhere without my Promarkers!!

Week #9 Freebie

Here is this week's freebie from Fitztown. Please comment for your chance to win this adorable image. You can see similar images here. We will draw for the winner on Saturday, November 9th at 6 PM. Gives you almost an entire week to think of something to post! ;) lol Thanks for playing along!


Fitztown Gab Fest!

We have lots to gab about today so may as well pull up a chair and a cup of coffee or cuppa tea, make yourself comfortable, sit back and read carefully to learn all the changes being made behind the curtain at Fitztown!

We'd so pleased to officially announce the addition of four new DT members! They've been with us as GDs for the past three challenges and their projects have totally WOWd us! We had to invite them to come on board! They graciously accepted our invitation to join our little team, effective with Challenge #13 - Paper Piecing on November 11th. Please welcome our new DT members, JudyK8Sharon and Tanya! Be sure to visit their blogs and wish them well in their journey with Fitztown!

Also, we've been making these announcements with the new challenges but there is just SO MUCH to read on there, I want to make sure the latest changes have not been lost to all! THREE things:


First, you do not HAVE to use a Fitztown image to play along; however, in order to win the prize, your creation must include a Fitztown image.


Second, we must have at least one entry with a Fitztown image to have a winner and if there are a minimum of ten participants total there will also be a Top 3 chosen by the DT Challenge Hostess. We do not currently have enough participants to be able to do this each challenge. When we have a winner and a TOP 3, these are truly winners and TOP 3 because we do not use Random.org unless there are at least TEN projects made with a Fitztown image! Yay for the participants!

Finally, if you would like to join our challenges and do not have a blog, you are welcomed to email your project to stampnscrapjunkie {@} gmail {dot} com and we will upload your project for you.

Now on to the NEW news!

2014 is bringing even MORE changes! We are a new blog and there have been many growing pains. We are slowly getting our act together and we so appreciate all who have stuck by us! 

Beginning with Challenge #17 - Anything Goes on January 6, 2014, we will change the start of our biweekly challenges to WEEKLY challenges! Sound scary? Can you imagine the reaction from the DT?!? ;) 

In order to keep the DT members from stampeding out the back door, we split the DT into two teams. 

There's Team A and members for that team are Judy, Kate, Sharon and, to make it interesting, me as well. :) Team B is led by new Team Leader, Sande, and also includes Kaija, Maria and Tanya. The teams will go live with Challenge #17 - Anything Goes on January 6th.

We also now have a Blog Hop Coordinator. As DT Coordinator, I do so much behind the scenes for Fitztown, I'm quite frazzled at times! Also, Maria has more experience than I do with blog hops so she's the Queen Bee of it all. She's already acting in this capacity.

As for scheduling the challenges, we start a new challenge every week; however, every challenge is for two weeks. Sound complicated? Not really! I'm probably just explaining it like that! Know you have two weeks to finish any challenge you chose to participate in and every Monday a new challenge will be posted. All you really have to do is keep up with Mr. Linky. Is that what he's called? He is to me! :) 

Team A and Team B Team Leaders will alternate hosting the challenges. The final change is that all announcements for the challenge and freebie winners will be made by DT Coordinator and as it is now, it will be made the Monday, one week after the challenge ends. This will be the new criteria for choosing winners in 2014 starting with Challenge #17 - Anything Goes on January 6th:

We must have at least one entry with a Fitztown image to have a winner and if there are a minimum of ten participants total there will also be a Top 3 chosen by the DT Coordinator

There you have it! Easy peasy, right? Yes, of course! Thanks for being part of Fitztown and I so appreciate you taking the time to read all this! Be sure to come back tomorrow when we announce Challenge #13 - Paper Piecing. We'd love to see what you can put together!

Happy Birthday Little Lady - Things with Wings Challenge


Hi, Judy here.  This is my second card for the "things with wings" challenge. 

For my card I used a digital image of Morgan Fitzsimons from the FAE Collection at Fitztown by Morgan Fitzsimons.   I love the fairy's little pointed ears. The dress and wings were paper pieced out of vellum paper.  The wings were cut out of silver vellum and the dress in a pattern vellum. I think the addition of the vellum gives the card a more fairy like feel.

 The fairy was coloured with Copic markers and the background was a stencil and PanPastel.  To complete the card I added some fabric flowers, pearls, blig and a sentiment. 

There is still time left to enter this challenge.  Hope you will show us your art work. 

Judy

I´m back with a little card..

Time for me to do a card for Fitztown again!
I chose a image called Winter 10 and color her with Tombows pen.
On the collar and cuffs have I use the snowmaker pen.
Used the gelatin over the image so it would look like a window with a die cut as a frame.
My embellishments on this card are flowers, pistills, leaf, skeleton-leaf and ribbon.

Have a lovely day out there
hugs Kate

GDT Erin - Wings Challenge

This is my last post as a guest designer for the Fitztown Challenge Blog.  I have really enjoyed my time with everyone here.  Thank you so much for having me.  I look forward to working with more of your images in the future!


I decided to use my last enchanter image for a journal page that I am working on for a dear pen pal of mine.  I decided to make it very clean and simple.  I colored the image with my promarkers and some new spectrum noir markers that I recently got.  I then fussy cut the image which was very difficult I must say.  I can see where I still need some work.  The nails and tail were so hard! I wrote "dreamer" with stickles.  A couple of cute stickers were added for an embellishment.


 We hope you join us this week for our current Wing challenge.  If you play using one of the Fitztown images you will be entered in a chance to win some free digi's. Link up today!

Hugs,

Erin
