June's Winners, and Saying Goodbye

June's Tags Challenge winners announced at the end of this post.

The Sundays With Crissy Challenge is coming to an end.  The June challenge was our last one.  I really can't believe it has been going for two years and three months!  What a fun ride it has been!

A big HUGE THANK YOU to all the members of my super-fabulous design team, Crissy's Crew, who have given of their time, talent, and loyalty to create cards and projects using my art work.   What a truly great bunch of gals each of you were to have on my team.   I'm so grateful for all you gave to this team and to each other - you have been supportive, positive, and encouraging to have around.  Thank you for using your talents to promote my art -- what a gift you all are to me.  I will miss your presence!

Special thanks to Sarah, who kept this challenge afloat and stepped up to the plate when mine was too full to run this ship.  Because of you, we could keep this thing going for that much longer.  Thank you  Sarah, you've been my right arm through all this!  I deeply appreciated your organizational skills and people skills too, not to mention, your memory, which took up the slack when mine went AWOL! I know I couldn't have kept it going without you.  You are a gem!

And thank you to my followers and participants of this challenge.  It was truly a joy to see your creations and to know you wanted to be linked up to us through the challenges.  It touches my heart to see your enthusiasm to participate with us!

I will miss this challenge, but I also know my energies are needed elsewhere now.  It was fun to dream about creating this challenge blog, fun to implement the ideas I had for it, and even more fun to see them come to life through the team and participants!

I hope to keep illustrating stamp images, both digital and rubber for Whimsy Stamps for awhile yet, so you aren't getting rid of me entirely.  :-)  In case you haven't seen the Whimsy Challenges, here's a link for you: http://whimsyinspires.blogspot.ca/  

And now onto the final winners for Sundays With Crissy, from June's Challenge of Tags or Tickets.  I decided to pick 2 winners for this last time around.  The following 2 participants (chosen by Random.org) from June's challenge get to pick five free digital images from any of my digital image collections.  Will the following 2 winners please contact me and I'll let you know how to go about receiving your prize: 

 13. Rina Fashionista

 22. Sandy How 

Congratulations Sandy and Rina!  Please email me!

And one last time, here are the recipients of the Artist's Choice Award! I was really blown away by the cards I saw this month and just could not narrow this list down any further.  Each of these cards are amazing works of art!  Please grab your trophy from the side bar and display it on your blog!  Congratulations, all of you! And thank you for playing!

p.s. from Sarah--I have loved being part of this team and am so thankful I had the opportunity to promote Crissy's art and work with so many wonderfully talented women!! Crissy has become a dear friend and has blessed my life in so many ways. I will miss the team and the blog but I'll still be around in blogland. I am hanging up my card making hat for awhile and am returning to my first love (craftwise) and that's scrapbooking. So if you tune into my blog you'll see some of my recent (and not so recent) layouts with a card or two here and there. Blessings to you all and thanks for playing along with us here at Sundays With Crissy!!

Challenge #30 - Tags and Tickets - Jane's Turn

Good Morning!  Jane here and today it is my turn to share my creation for the Tags and Tickets challenge!  I have used the gorgeous "Cute Cupid" by Crissy for Whimsy Stamps to create a bottle tag for a bottle of bubbly that I gave to my Brother and his wife who celebrated their first anniversary this month! For more details of how I created my tag please see my blog post here!  

Now it's your turn to show us your Tags and Tickets!

You may use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted. Please also remember to link your card/creation to the appropriate post. Although we'd love to surf your blog it makes it very hard for us when we have to go looking through multiple posts to find your entry for our challenge.

This is the Father's Day card I made for my hubby - the father of our four kids!  I made a tag that doubles as a book-mark (if he so wishes to use it that way).  I was really inspired by the layout on one of my DT's posts this month and kind of copied it.  Here's the card that inspired me by Carole.

Here's a pic with the tag pulled out:

Hello everyone, it's Rosalien here and it's my turn today to show you my card. I used this lovely image callend "Hang In There" from Whimsy Stamps. This is one of my favorite images from Crissy, isn't he cute?? :)) I used both a tag and a ticket on my card. When I saw these papers from Bo Bunny I knew this was perfect for my card. It matches so well with the image. This time I made a Easel Card, I love them and it has been a while since I made one.

Challenge #30 -- Tags or Tickets -- Carole's Turn

Hello everyone - the theme for our challenge this month is Tags or Tickets, and today it's my turn to show the card I made. I chose to use a tag onto which I stamped the sentiment for my card; the sentiment reads: "What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it". I've tucked this tag behind the image on the card so it can be removed, and I've included photos of the tag both tucked into the card and sitting beside it so you can see it better. The image, of course, is Crissy's gorgeous Rose Butterfly which is another one that has become a real favourite of mine. You can find more details about the card on my blog HERE.

Now it's your turn to show us your Tags or Tickets cards or creations! There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month! You may use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted.

☺HERE'S HOW TO UPLOAD YOUR CARD OR PROJECT☺

Thanks so much for stopping by and looking at my card today. Have a good month and Happy Crafting!

Challenge #30--Tags and Tickets!--Shannah's Turn

Hi Everyone! Welcome to another new challenge at "Sundays with Crissy"! Our theme for June is... "Tags and Tickets!"

This is another great challenge - I often forget that tags and tickets are great for adding sentiments,  embellishments, or even for stamping your image on. For this challenge I decided to go with Sentiment Tickets, which were perfect to tuck into the side of the frame on my card, as the image already took up most of the space. I picked the gorgeous "Babe at the Beach" by Crissy Armstrong, available from the fabulous Whimsy Stamps. I decided my Beach Baby needed a beach to be toddling along... So I merged (and then double mounted) her on "The Beach Scene" from Make It Crafty.
Hope you like it!

And another angle...

I'd love you to pop over to my blog Embellished ExpresShan's for a visit, and see more details about my card!

Now it's your turn to show us your 'TAGS AND TICKETS' cards!! There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month! You may now use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted.

You can link up you project on Sarah's post by clicking HERE. Just find the Blue Linky button and add your project! (She has all the instructions!)

Wishing you all a wonderful month!!

Welcome Crafters, to the Sundays With Crissy Challenge Blog! It's challenge time again and for the month of June it's all about "Tags and Tickets"!! You can use one or the other or a combination of both.

Here's my card for the challenge!! I used Crissy's rubber image "Lend Me Your Ear" from Whimsy Stamps. This card was included in a bunch I did for a school fundraiser.

The perfect sentiment for Crissy's image!!
