There is Still Time to Play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #624

Hello Friends!

Today I am popping in with a card to remind you that there is still time to play with this round of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! Challenge #624 is a THEME CHALLENGE-SCHOOL DAYS.


There is a sponsor for this round-Kate Hadfield Designs. This shop generously donated the digi stamps BIG SCHOOL to the Design Team for our cards.



Below is the Challenge Badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challeng #624:

Like my ruler card from last week, I layered the pencil image over and over in a row. I then colored the pencils in with Copic Markers in rainbow order.


I adhered the panel to a red, A2 card front. I then glued a strip of red gingham pattern paper 1/4" way down from the top of the white panel and added a die cut sentiment from the Spellbinder's Every Day Sentiment Set.


My last step was to add some Glossy Accents to the pencil erasers and the circles on the “metal” part and this card was done.

Hello Crafty Friends!!!

For my first card I layered the ruler images from the digital stamp set, printed the card front out and colored them in with Copic Markers. (The sentiment I generated using the font from my computer) I chose to do a rainbow color scheme because I knew that the colors would go together.


I cut the panel down and layered it over a red, A2 card that had some red gingham pattern paper on it. I added gems around the sentiment because it was a lot of white space.


For my second card, I grouped a bunch of school supplies together, printed them out and die cut the images into a circle. I colored the images in with Copic Markers.

I layered the circle over a kraft, A2 card base that I had adhered strips of cardstock that matched the colors from the images.


My last step was to add some white gems around the sentiment. These cards were SO FUN to create!!

I started my card by coloring in the digi stamp with Copic Markers and die cutting it with a circle die.


I layered it over a piece of green striped pattern paper that took me FOREVER to find in my stash. The white frame was die cut using a die from Paper Trey Ink.


I added a die cut a banner and adhered it to the card front using foam adhesive. I added the sentiment from Concord & 9th. The last steps was to add a twine bow and some sequins.

That is all from me. I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by.
Have a fabulous day!!

There is Still Time to Play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #622

Hello Friends!!

Today I am popping in with a card to remind you that there is still time to play with this round of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! Challenge #622 is a THEME CHALLENGE-FOR THE BIRDS.


I started off by creating the background using Scattered Straw and Antique Linen Distress Stain to smoosh onto the background. I then used some stamps and a stencil over the top.


The little bird is from Spellbinders. The leaves are a combination of die cuts from Kat Scrappiness Dies and Alex Siberia.

I used the Sunflower Botanicuts from The Greetery that were already created from my stash. I usually make a bunch of extras when I am die cutting so when I need them for something I have them.


The brown pattern paper is from an old Jillibean Soup paper pad and I used the Spellbinders Argyle Plaid embossing folder for the embossed background.


The sentiment is from The Greetery’s All Occasion Script Sentiments set.
