AiFactory Challenge #9 featuring Softpencil Illustrations!

Hey there groovy challenge players! This week the DT girls used the adorable Bee and Flower digi stamp from Softpencil Illustrations to provide your inspiration!  This cute digi is available for purchase in the AiFactory store!  A BIG thank you goes out to Elizabeth for letting us use this adorable digi!  If you play along and win... you could have one of your own!

The featured card this week is by our Brand New DT member... Sheri (also known as Fink!).  You can read more about here.  Leave her some love on her blog! This is her first challenge and we're looking forward to many more!

This week's challenge is a sketch challenge!  We are using CPS #138 for our sketch.

Use your creativity, with the sketch as your guide!  Remember, you do NOT have to use AiFactory images to play!  If you do want to play with AiFactory digis, there are some freebies available at the AiFactory store.

What do you have to do to win?  Just play along with the challenge and post your link in Mr. Linky.  Leave us a comment too!  You have until next Monday night (2 November) at midnight EST to enter!  The winner gets the adorable Bee and Flower digi from Softpencil Illustrations!  Make sure you tag your projects with AIF009 if you upload to on-line galleries.  You may also want to tag it with CPS138 and Softpencil as well.

Check out the DT for more inspiration!

AiFactory Challenge #6!!!!

Hello AiFactory FANS!!!! Are you ready for another challenge?!

This week we are going to make something for the boys or men in our lives! Since we so often turn to girly things, i.e. girly stamps, flowers, ribbon; I thought it would be nice to do something different for a change!

I challenge you to make a masculine card and use hardware! No frills! No ribbon! Feel free to use Ivan, a new addition to our growing collection! And now Ivan is dressing up as a pirate these days! You can find him in our store HERE!

So, get to work and link your project back here so we can see how fabulous it is!!!!

Check out what our fabulous designers have created for your inspiration!
