August Challenge!

On: August 1, 2017

It’s August and that means it’s time for a new monthly challenge at Some Odd Girl!

August’s OPTIONAL Twist is ‘Layers Galore’!

Rule reminders – you can create anything you’d like as long as it includes a Some Odd Girl digi or clear stamp. IF you use the optional twist of Layers Galore (meaning lot’s of layers) in your project you will get extra goodies if you are chosen as our winner. The challenge runs the entire month, so you have until August 31 at 3:00 p.m. to get your entry in.

Some inspiration the Odd girls want to share with you.

Christa using Panda Nerd

Melissa using Surfer Kody and Beach Mae

Patti made a card using Nana Luv Ollie and Ollie Glee

Sadia using Bubbles Mermaid digi stamp

Therese using digi stamp Mushroom Garden

Anna Sigga using Beach Mae

Nicoletta using Fist Pump Tobie

The winner of our Challenge will get a $10 GC to the shop but if that randomly chosen winner uses the optional twist, I am going to up that to $15! A little incentive to get crafty.

In addition to our Winner we’ll be picking a Top 3 from all the entries and each of those will get a $3 digi of their choice and a sweet Top 3 badge for their blog.

All you need to do is enter your project using the linky at the bottom of the post and you can share it in our Facebook community as well. InLinkz let’s you enter from Instagram too and you can use any link (facebook maybe?) so you don’t have to have a blog to enter.

Before I leave you let’s get to those winners from July…

Our big winner is Sarah N! She is the winner of $15 with her rainbowy summer creation.

Our Top 3 Winners, each of a $3 digi of their choice, are Regan, Donette, and Melle Clef!

Good morning Odd friends, happy to find you here today it’s me, Sadia, writing today, and I’d like to share with you my peek a boo card step by step. I made this for a very special friend, and thougth this was the perfect structure to contai a very special message… let’s start:

First of all you need to cut e pieces of bazzil, I used white to keep it cleen and simple, size 5 1/2″ x 8 1/4″, 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ , 5 1/2″ x 5 3/4″, and make the windows in the first and second pcs, in the same spot. I made the heart with my cameo, but you can use a die, and make them both at the same time, to be sure the hole is in the right position.

Once you made he hole, you can score the paper, put the 5 1/2″ x 8 1/4″ bazzil on the scoring board and score at 2 3/4″, then place the 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ bazzil on the scoring board and score at 4 1/4″ , and fold. Place thelast piece of bazzil on the scoring board and score at 5 1/2″ and fold along the score line.this will be the back of the card as shown in the next picture.

Put the paper in the way I show you in the picture, and adhere the first 2 large parts, as shown in the pic, and for the last add the small one for the back.

Now you can place the colore image, I used Tropical Piper and Gaze digi stamp, and I colored them with copic, you need to place it exactly in the opened spot of the window, but in the middle part of the card.

Afterward you can place the sentiment, I printed it with a printer and made an off set with the sketch pen of my cameo, and you need to place it in the back, the last layer of the card, in the spot correspondent to the window when you open the card, make sure it is the right size to be hidden when you close the card. To make sure it is the right size, I used the hole frame as you can see in the picture.

and that’s that… here is my card, I hope you enjoyed it and it was clear enough…
