Challenge #5 - 'Anything But A Card'

A new day, and it's officially my Birthday!  What better way for me to start off another challenge. Welcome to Challenge #5, and I'm excited about today's theme, it's one of my favorites!  JUST REMEMBER, if you use an image from Pattie's Creations, you will get an extra entry to win!  Stop over at her Etsy Store and browse around.  There are FREEBIES too, just click on the link on the Top Menu Bar and grab one.
The theme for this week's challenge is 'ANYTHING BUT A CARD' (it doesn't have to be Birthday related).  There are plenty of things you can do, Gift Tags, Journals, Gift Bags, Luminarias, Bookmarks, you get the idea.  Our DT created some wonderful inspirations for this week's challenge, and they love to receive comments, so click on their names to view their blogs and leave them some love.
A winner will be chosen by Random.org.  The winner will receive a $10.00 credit towards a purchase at Pattie's Etsy Store and an 'I Won' badge.  Also, an added gift from our very own DT member Theresa, is offering some Candy for the winner.  Here's a photo and what's included:

Glitter x 2

Pearls

Gems

Bunch of Flowers x 2

Pom Poms

Brads

Ribbon x 2

A second winner for the 'Allie's Choice Award' will be chosen by the DT Leads and can proudly display our badge on their sidebar.  The challenge starts now and ends Thursday, November 25th at 1PM CST (Central Time).  That happens to be Thanksgiving here in the USA, so Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Now let's see what this week's DT has for your inspiration.

Bev - Looks like Bev made good use out of Stocking Pattieboop and Allie.  Not 1, but 4 Gift Tags, and personalized too!  Great coloring on all.  Well done Bev!

Linda - Linda said, "Allie - colored with Copic Ciao. I really wanted to give Allie the best condition - a spot where she looked like she was home. I stamped the tag with Hero Arts/Stampin' Up. Sentiment; HA. Note/flowerstamp, unknown. The flower at the top of the note is Stampin Up/cut out."  Nicely done!

Mel - What a gorgeous bookmark and wording!  I just love how the camera caught the 'sparkle' on the angel's wings and halo.  Mel used Angel Pattieboop and tied an Angel Charm to the ribbon.  Love it!

Theresa - Nice gift tag, love the blues and purple shades!  Mermaid Pattieboop looks like she has some extra bubbles to complete an adorable creation.  Love that purple ribbon too!

Tina - What a gorgeous gift box!  The flowers look good enough to eat.  I love this color combination with Indian Princess Pattieboop.  The second picture is a closeup view of the image.  Well done!

Sandi (that's me) - I made a Gift Tag with Pattieboop & Allie Swinging.  The expression on Allie's face just cracks me up!  The sentiment I added 'Hang in there!' completes my tag.

So let's see what you'll make for us!  Leave a link to your post below, not your blog.  Good luck, and remember to have fun!

Thank You!
