This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Animal (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I love most types of animals (except creepy crawlies) but most of all I do love kitties of all sizes and I'm slave to two rescued felines at home.

Samantha

This a really difficult challenge in the respect of choosing A favourite animal I love all animals
and have a Rabbit a Guinea pig a goose, ducks and Chickens... soooo I decided to go with my favourite wooden shape that arrived this last week - you can see them all on my blog but this is the one I chose - a Squirrel

Brenda

Bunnies are one of my favorite animals.  They are so soft and cuddly and I love they way their little noses wiggle!

Elaine

One of my favourite animals is the Hedgehog. It has been a long running favourite with my family, we used to go on hedgehog hunts of a summer evening. They are so cute.

Kat

My fave animal in terms of crafting is a bear...and one little bear in particular...it's James bear, because he is just adorable and I always enjoy colouring his fur, whether I'm using Copics or Inktense pencils as I have done here.

Lorraine

Although we have had two cats (sadly now only one) and I really love them my favourite animal has always been horses. I have never ridden them but I love their majestic nature and to see them galloping free in the fields is the most beautiful sight there is.

Mojca

I love cats, but when it comes to paper crafting I just love to use owls on my projects. Owls are so cute and funny and always make me smile :) 

Sarah

I'm a dog person, couldn't be without one. We have been blessed with such loyal hairy kids over the years. What I love the most is the way they listen to every word you say no matter what!! Having said that I couldn't find a stamp with a dog on it until I remembered a set that came with a magazine...phew!!

The outside...

The inside...

Squirrel
I found this a really difficult challenge as there are so many animals that I love to use on cards - cats, teddies, bunnies, hedgehogs, but when you have been called Squirrel for 30+ years then what else could it be?!

Wilma
My favorite animal is a cat. I loooooove cats. I love their character and attitude. At this moment we don't have a cat, but maybe one day we will. 

So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite of our options.

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to win the prize.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.

So, onto our next challenge

The sponsor of this challenge is

Lawn Fawn
A stamp set and 6x6 pad of the winner’s choice

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Anything but a Card (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I have a real weakness for cute little boxes so I've made a milk carton box and a pillow box (using dies from Lawn Fawn) in Spring coloured card and decorated them both with a Spring lamb image.

Samantha

Well is seems that we here at As You Like it could start a Crochet group too
hhaha because I LOVE Crochet so my No-card project has to be a crochet item.
I made this hat for my grand-daughter and the little gift bag to wrap it for Easter as she can not have cows milk so I figured that I would make her something instead.

Brenda

I love all kinds of crafting, but one of my favourites is crochet.  This is a "fuzzy lei" I made to use as a hat band.  It is crocheted with 4 different speciality yarns.

Elaine

I loved making these Wedding good luck gifts. They are easy to make and look very pretty.
They can easily be personalised too. 

Kat

My favourite non-card projects are any kind of gift bag or box...or in this case...basket!
I love the creativity of making a 3D item  and then being able to decorate it, and it's such a lovely way to present a gift...you can see what I put in these  baskets on my blog!

Lori

When I am not card making, I am an avid crocheter ;) I have a little side-business called Caffeinated Creativity (coffee and creating - my life! xoxo) and so I thought I would showcase one of the many infinity scarves I have made and love to create. This is my daughter, Kimberly, modeling for me :) This pattern is from Bella-Coco. 




Lorraine

I love decorating wooden trinket boxes and this one was for my Mother-in-Law

Mojca

I love making notebooks and this one is special with a sentiment "Live your dreams". I hope someone will write some lovely thoughts in to this one :)

Sarah

My favourite "Not a card" is a wall hanging, it still incorporates the skill of planning and designing, as with a card, but can be on display all year round.

Squirrel

I love the excitement of receiving interestingly wrapped gifts, so I always try to make the effort to give in the same way.  I am really into gift bags and boxes at the moment, bags for the awkward shapes of course!

Suzette

I have not done crochet for a very long time as that is where my creativity started, I love these little stuff toys and decided I am going to start making a lot of different ones when I get a chance so here is my first little bunny.

Wilma

I like to wrap up little presents in a self made bag or envelope. For this challenge I made a little bag and tag.

So now it's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 

showcase your Favourite of our options.

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to win the prize.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

Hugs from the AYLI girls.
