RILEY1111, Party Treat!

Hello, I made this for this weeks Riley and Company Challenge. This weeks challenge is Hosted by Cindy, and she's challenged us to make a Party themed card or project for a child!

Well it wouldn't be a paper without a treat right!

Ring Master Riley is part of the new Circus Rileys just released, you can find them all here!

I coloured Riley with copics, and added stickles to his bow tie and hat band, & a tiny black gem for a button on his jacket!

The box was made using the Cricut Tags, Bags, boxes & more cartridge, this is the popcorn box cut at 6". I actually made 2 boxes, a red and white box. The I cut the white box into strips & glues every other one in place on the red box.

Everyone is welcome to join in the challenge, just upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog! Please use the keyword RILEY1111, when uploading to forums.

Have a Great Day

Catch the Bug Challenge, Grads Dads & other Celebrations!

You can Find the Riley & Company Blog Hop Here!
Hello, I coming to to the Bugaboo Challenge late, this is for the Grads, Dads & Other Celebrations. I used the digi image that was free last Friday, AKV Golf-golf bag!

We had to replace our printer last week, and the ink on this new one runs when I use copics...it's driving me crazy! So if his face looks a little dirty, that's why!

I used the Cricut Plantin Schoolbook cartridge and cut this bag at 10" and the white circle at 3-3/4". Then I embossed the circle with the tiny bubbles EF, using the reverse side so it looks like a golf ball! I thought this would make a great little bag to put some golfing tees in!

The image was cut out using the petite oval nesties. The sentiment is from the Riley and Company Everyday Sayings set.

Have a Great Day!

Riley Peek Day #3, Hula Hoops Riley!

Hello again, it's day 3 of the Riley and Company sneak peeks, and today I'm showing you the new Hula Hoops Riley, and a look at where my crazy mind goes somethimes! lol

Riley was coloured with copics and cut out with the octagon nesties.

The hula hoops kinda reminded me of elastics, and so I've made a little gift box for them. I love it when stamps have more than one use, and I think this works pretty well!

I've just recently started playing with me Cricut, so today's project was made using the Cricut Tags, bags, boxes & more cartridge. This is the crayon box, with a window cut at 8". The box measures aprox. 5.5" x 4-3/8" x .5". Rather than put the flap inside, I covered it with a scrap of dp and used some hardware to hold it closed.

I've also used a sentiment from the new Circus words set and the separate Hula Hoop is from the new circus accessories set, yep Riley even has his own accessories now!

Make sure to join in the Blog Hop & Release fun, on Thurday May 26th, 10 pm est, as usual it will start at the Riley and Company Blog!


Have a Great Day!

RILEY1011, Basketball Gift Box!

Hello, it's time for another challenge for the Riley and Company Design Team! This weeks challenge RILEY1011 is Hosted by Silke, and she's challenging us to make a gift box!

If you'd like to play along, please upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog and if you upload to any forums, please use the keyword RILEY1012.

I made this Basketball gift bag using the Cricut Plantin School book cartridge. If you want more details, like sizes etc. just let me know in the comment section and I can put together a tutorial!

As you can see, I also used Basketball Riley. He's coloured with copics, and I used a ruler & fine tip marker to draw in the floor.

The sentiment is from the Everyday Sayings set. I separated the words and punched them out with the word window. The sentiment and image are popped up!
This is the back, I drew in the lines with a black sharpie before I embossed it.

Make sure to check out what the other Designers have come up with, I know I can;t wait to see them! You can find links to all the designers on the right hand sidebar.

Have a Great Day!
