Since it's the last Thursday of the month, that means it's PRIZE TIME! I am offering up the following goodies to one lucky participant this week. We will use Random.org to choose the winner:
Here is my card for this weeks' challenge - it is from a kit that I made a while back and I used rub-on's and a marker for the accents...

Welcome back to 4 Crafty Chicks.....it is a gray day out here in Central Alberta. The rain that will be coming is sure going to green things up and make the air smell fresh.
Blogger is testing my patience today but with Lori's (fellow chicks) help I am now on my way to announcing our TOP 3. What an amazing week we had, with so much inspiration and talent on our Boys Dig It Challenge. It is definitely a place to come back to for idea's and inspiration. Thanks to everyone who took the time to share your creations with us, they are all so fabby.
After many hard decisions we have come up with our TOP 3.
The faux stitching is just awesome on the layered pieces and adds to the dimension of your card. Your colors are fabulous and the image that you colored is so amazing. What little boy doesn't love there dog, the water and maybe a little quiet time fishing. Fabulous inspiration.
Stunning colors together, along with the layers and layout. Your image is so crisp and clean. The image you colored is fabulous and your guitar is just the perfect touch. So many boys want to be a rock star and this image just shows what it is like to learn music with such concentration . Wonderful inspiration.
The colors are stunning together and the pattern paper is just perfect. So many other details on your card just make it pop. Crisp lines, buttons and the material add so much to your creation. Your image is wonderful and the coloring is fantastic. Besides cars, what boy doesn't love a plane. Amazing inspiration.
Congratulations, ladies! Please grab your Golden Egg badge and display it proudly on your blog! We'd love it if you could link it back to our challenge blog too.

CHALLENGE #86 - BOYS DIG IT!
Sometimes, I find it hard to make masculine cards and when I need one there is never one around. It is a simple challenge right?
The card I created is a simple one and it was for my sons birthday. He loves his Ipod touch (a boys dig it moment) and well I thought this Kenny K image (Teen Idol) was totally him.
My fellow DT's have really out did themselves on this challenge. Thanks girls for the amazing inspiration.

Hi everyone. Today is Wednesday and we are back with our TOP 3 picks. We were so excited to see what everyone created with Material/Fabric. There were cards, 3D projects, there was leather used, cheese cloth, felt, cross stitch adia and many more great uses of other materials. More great inspiration brought to us by you, so thank you very much for making our first Material/Fabric challenge such a success.
This is one crazy day so I will apologize now for not giving everyone my usual comments. Today, I am running behind but please know that we all think your creations have wonderful details, colors, layout and inspiration.
Congratulations, ladies! Please grab your Golden Egg badge and display it proudly on your blog! We'd love it if you could link it back to our challenge too.
Thanks to all who participated in our "Material Girl" Challenge. We will see you tomorrow morning with another fun challenge! We are proud to have our Guest Designer's for the month of April back with us Kasey and Heather, they have some amazing inspiration for you.
Welcome back for another fun 4 Crafty Chicks' Challenge! We've got a fun one for you this week but you might find it a bit challenging. :) I know most of us have used ribbon and twine on our cards but how many of us have used fabric? Probably not as many as you'd think. So, this week, my challenge to you is to use fabric/material on your project - and ribbon/twine doesn't count!!! Yes, I'm making it difficult but that's why they call it a challenge, right? You could use burlap or canvas or cotton....the possibilities are endless.
For my card, I used some felt. I picked up a bunch at the dollar store in town and have been using it a fair bit lately:
And here's what the rest of the fabulous design team created for us this month - Heather and Casey are back together for the whole month! Thanks again, ladies!
Her fabric/material is the felt flowers on her card.

WOW, WOW, WOW FACTOR!! Yep you saw it here. We were just stunned at the way our fabulous players used their flowers this week. Each and every creation had amazing flowers on it whether it was a few or a lot or just on the image. The 3D projects, cards, baskets, scrapbook pages...were all master pieces. Oh and when you all used an image do you ever know how to color. Eye popping, jaw dropping creations this week. If you have time please take a look through the entries and hop around, they truly are amazing.
It was another stellar week for entries...we appreciate everyone who took the time to play with us. Thank you so much for giving us the huge challenge of trying to pick a TOP 3. After much agonizing we did and here they are:
Super cute image and the color is wonderful, along with your layout. The flowers you added make for the perfect pop. Great inspiration.

Wahoooo! Man oh man all of our entrants give us so much inspiration and the talent is truly undeniable. We had an amazing 122 entries and they ranged from cards, eggs, baskets, books, door hangers, gift jars, other 3D projects and scrapbook pages (hopefully I didn't forget any style of craft that was made). We also had kids, gentlemen and ladies join us this week. Thank you so much for making our Easter Challenge such a success and for sharing what it means to you.
It was soooo hard to pick our winner's this week....thanks for making our job so *tough*. It is worth it too see what you share with us but is sometimes hard as we want to pick so many more than three but alas are strict with ourselves at sticking to our rules. Here are our TOP 3 and below that our Prize Winner.
What a beautiful spring image! The size of the flower is wonderful it looks like it popping right off of the page. The bunny is just too perfect sitting on top of the flower. Amazing coloring and wonderful inspiration.
Wonderful colors, layout, flowers and ribbon. Your coloring is so beautiful and the image is sooo cute for Easter, that bunny looks like it just needs to be picked up and hugged by a little one. Just marvelous inspiration.
Very unique layout and so many details packed into one card. A good old fashioned Easter hunt is wonderful and that is what this depicts. Wonderful image, coloring and layout. Fabulous inspiration.
