ReplyDeleteYes, i love to participate in lots of blog contests! They inspire me to do more beautiful work and innovative ideas!
Wonderful sentiment for Ike's fabulous image. Truly inspiring work. I participate in lots of Blog Contests. Great inspiation, good for the mojo, and it's always exciting to win. xxD
ReplyDeleteI don't do a lot of contests. I will do them to support a friend, like this one, and there is one that I do regularly because of the people involved. Mostly, I have enough to do just to keep up with my design team duties over at The Outlawz and my three blogs. I always wonder how people find the time to look to see if they won when they enter so many challenges LOL!
ReplyDeleteit's a beautiful image and card Holley.
ReplyDeleteI just make a card Holley and see if it fits in a challenge.

Love this image it is awesome and so is your card.
ReplyDeletethis is just lovely!
ReplyDeleteas for contests, is that the same as challenges? if so, then I enjoy entering them. I like to see how many my projects qualify for. plus it's about the only way I can keep my crafty stash stocked these days! tee hee! :)
enjoy your weekend!
Great card and lovely use of colors :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I love challenges, because it helps me find my mojo. I don't want to enter too many of them, so I have limited my self to max of 5 challenges per card. :)
Gorgeous card Holley and such a fabulous sentiment. Your colouring is awesome. Thank you for using one of my images for your wonderful creation :-)
ReplyDeleteI often have a browse to see what Challenges my creations might fit but I don't go overboard - probably about 5 or so, and that's if I remember, but I do like to enter Challenges and have a browse at other people's creations :-D
Thanks for having me in your Celebrations :-)

ReplyDeleteWhat a neat card. I really live the sentiment. I occasionally do blog contests. I haven't been able to in a while though. My computer isn't set up and I need to still get internet. A lil hard to do from my phone.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card and love the sentiment and angel.

WHY, WHY, WHY does this image have to be a digi stamp?? I would absolutely LOVE to have this image for so many reasons! My neighbor's 7 year old son passed away in 2003 and he would have graduated this year. I would love to use this image to make them a "Thinking of You" card with this Angel representing Joseph as the adult he would be now.
ReplyDeleteYou have done this image beautifully!!
I enter LOTS of contests each day! You have to be In it to WIN it!! TFS!
I haven't done many challenges; guess I don't have much confidence in my art.
ReplyDeleteNice card Holley and great coloring on the focal image. I enter a few challenges, but only one at a time.

Such a great sentiment - your card is gorgeous! As for your question, yes, I do a lot of blog challenges. I look to them for my inspiration, and I enjoy supporting as many challenges as I can.
ReplyDeleteVery nice card. I enjoy doing challenges as it helps with inspiration when I need a card for somebody
ReplyDeleteLove the card. I did try to view the images at Ike's, but they were to hard to see, thumbnails way to small for me and closeups just big enough but the lambs covering them too distracting. I tried viewing with both IE & Firefox. Maybe my computer is at fault. Seems like I would really like these images, so I will be trying again. I no longer do blog contests. I used to do a lot of them and enjoyed it. Life got busy. I should start doing these again, they are fun.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Holley and that sentiment is so true
ReplyDeleteI enter challenges as they can be very inspiring and give me new creative ideas along with entering contests it's fun and always a surprise if you win plus I'm always happy for others that win too. I hold a bunch of giveaways all the time because you must always pay it forward and who doesn't love happy mail. Hugs Nikki
Stunning image and sentiment Holley. I enjoy challenges. It brings more traffic to your blog and you can keep up to date with all the lovely creations!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful angel. I enter a lot of challenges with my projects couse I like to challenge myself :)
ReplyDeleteHi, A gorgeous card Holley and a stunning image with a beautiful sentiment.
ReplyDeleteI do enter challenges, probably not as many as I should. I like to look at the fabulous inspiration that can be found, not only from the design teams but from the players as well.
Hugs Jen xx
Hi Holley - Nice card! I haven't entered any challenges in a long time. I was in a yahoo group that swapped cards on a monthly basis, for many years. That was kind of like a challenge, because there was a monthly theme. Would be fun to make and post cards, if I had more time ...
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card and image. You are such an expert at coloring Holley!
ReplyDeleteI enter a few challenges once in awhile but my crafting time is limited so I can't craft as often as I would like. I really like seeing what everyone else makes for challenges though, and they give me a lot of ideas to try later.
Hi Holley this is a gorgeous card. I love the angel. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteOh wow fab x
ReplyDeleteI am familiar with Ike's website and challenges and love her animal images especially. You colored this angel so beautifully, wow! I haven't used any digi stamps in my cards because I don't have a printer but I love the way you incorporate them. As for challenges, yes I love challenges. They often inspire me to create and to try new techniques or products.
ReplyDeleteLove your design and sentiment on this one, Holly.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful card Holley. It's a beautiful sentiment and image.
ReplyDeleteUnless I've made a card specifically for a challenge, I like to enter a few challenges at a time. I often forget to go back and check the winners though xx
Lovely card Holley. As far as blog contests go, I usually do one at a time. It's hard to keep my head straight these days. Lol
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely image from Ike Holley. Very peaceful.

Wow! What a beautiful image! Blog entries...while I seldom enter blog contests, I do love to look at them for inspiration! If I do enter, it is only one at a time.
ReplyDeleteLovely card with a beautiful image and sentiment. I don't do many blog challenges. Sometimes a challenge just grabs me, though and I give it a try. The very first challenge I ever entered, I won! I was shocked but learned that it could be done. I do enter some progressive blog challenges for the free images. Recently I've cut back on those because it was getting to be a stress for me. Now that I'm retired, I avoid stress.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful Card with a Caring Sentiment!! It's quite Lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteI do enter a few blogs/contests at a time. I keep a journal so I can go back & check out the WINNERS!!! My Long Distance BFF of mine clued me in on that Secret!!! LOL
Beautiful card & quote. I wish I had all the time in the world with no work especially cooking & chores to craft & blog. So, I'm not a regular blogger & enter a few contests whenever I do.
ReplyDeleteFantastic quote - I love it!
ReplyDeleteI enter only a few blog contests - I usually forget to go back and honestly would rather be creating. Usually only one at a time

I haven't entered a blog contest in a long time, but I used to enter a few here and there.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card. I love the sentiment.
ReplyDeleteI enter a few contests here and there.
Beautiful card, I don't do a lot of blog contests.
ReplyDeleteI just ADORE this sentiment! I totally agree!
ReplyDeleteI don't really do a lot of blog contests. I don't really think my work is good enough for contests. I will post for fun...but don't usually for competition. Silly, I know, but that is just how I feel.

Just Beautiful Holley!!!
ReplyDeleteLove that sentiment!!!! And it's perfect for what my life has been like for the past year. I'm definitely going t remember that. I tend to shy away from doing people because I don't feel like I have the coloring skills to do them justice. I do enter contests as much as my time allows. I do usually try to fulfill more than one at a time.
ReplyDeleteI would like to do more challenges but the priority is scrapbooks. When I get some time for it, it join in. Not often though for now.
ReplyDeleteI actually haven't really had much time for blog contests. But I enjoy coming here, because you have such a variety. I just recently started doing my own blog, but I have not done much with it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome card, Holley. I love Ike's Art images. I try to link up with a few challenges every post I make. Since I design for a few blogs, joining challenges helps the sponsors' images get seen by more crafters.
ReplyDeleteHi, Holley!
ReplyDeleteI enter to many at the same time... I love to win prizes :)
Very inspiring card. I like to try to combine challenge but that does not always work for me.
ReplyDeleteI love this angel! It's so hard to find male ones. The sentiment is perfect with this image.
ReplyDeleteI very rarely enter blog contests now, but I used to enter tons of them.

Love the image and the sentiment. I love entering challenges. I usually link to about 5, if the rules allow. Hugz
ReplyDeleteI luv Ike's just a wonderful selection! I picked up a freebie too YAY!!!! I don't do challenges too often but I enjoy looking at the projects done buy others.
ReplyDeleteThat sentiment is so very true love the card.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card! I haven't done many blog contests lately.
ReplyDeleteLovely image and sentiment. I make a card/project and then see if it fits a challenge. Creative Blessings, Tracy x
