Just a Reminder for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #586

 Hey Friends!!

Just popping in with a card for this round of Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #586. CIC586 is a THEME challenge. Create a project inspired by FAIRY TALES.

Once again, this was a tough challenge for me. Instead of using images of dragons, princesses or castles on my card, I decided to use an APPLE!


The challenge badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #586 is below:


I used an old Spellbinders die to create the apple on my card. The Apple was inspired by Snow White's apple that she ate in the Fairy Tale Snow White.


The hearts stencil I used is from Scrapbook.com. I did a bit of distress on the edges. The flowers are from Spellbinders Paper Arts.


I printed out the sentiment on the computer since I didn't have one. All in all, I love how this came out.

That is all from me. Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

A New Challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog-Challenge #586

Hey Friends!!

There is a new challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog today. Challenge #586 is a THEME challenge. It is to use the theme of FAIRY TALES to create a project.

This was a tough one for me. I am not a "princess" type of person and hadn't a clue on what I was going to create for this card. I decided to go with the flower aspect of Fairy Tales for my card design.


In many Fairy Tales, flowers have a presence in the story. Roses are theme in both Sleeping Beauty and in the story of Beauty and The Beast. In Sleeping Beauty, Beauty is referred to as Briar Rose. I decided to go with that. 

Below is the badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #586:


For my card, I used the stamp set Paint-A-Flower: Rosa Floribunda to create my card. First I heat embossed it in white. I then used a combination of Distress Inks and Zig Watercolor Markers to color it in.


I distressed the edges of the panel and then layered it over a dry embossed, pink cardstock panel.


I used a sentiment stamp from Your Next Stamp for the sentiment.
