Crafts Galore Encore September 2025

Back to school this week. The 6 week holiday seems to have flown by. That could be, in part, because we took the two oldest grandchildren to the US for a few weeks. Relaxing with wonderful friends and then hustling around Disneyworld. Everyone had a fabulous time but now it's back to business ....

.... there is a new challenge starting today at

Thank you to everyone who joined in with last month's challenge. The winners have been announced on the challenge blog. This is a month long challenge and you can enter up to three times. There is a full list of rules on the challenge blog.


Our theme every month is the popular
"Anything Goes"
and our sponsor this month is:


who are offering a prize of 3 digi images to our lucky winner.

I have made an 8"x 8" birthday card.

I started with the layers of black  and brown card. The pale blue top card is one I've had in my craft room stash for years. 
I stamped the sentiment directly on the blue card.


I chose this pretty image to work with. I can't find her in the shop but there are so many other equally pretty digi images in the shop for you to choose from.
I coloured her with my Copics and mounted her on black card.


The stone wall in the image made me think of the bridges across the Seine in Paris so I die cut the Eiffel Tower  and the Fleur de Lys as embellishments. I cut them in both black and brown card to give a shadow effect. They are both from an old Tim Holtz Alterations Sizzix set.


I finished the card by wrapping  some ribbon around the card layers and adding a few flowers and a bow.

Now please visit the  Crafts Galore Encore challenge blog where you can see the wonderful projects and cards created by our talented team using Cute Bee Digis images.
