There is still time to play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #608

 Hey 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 #608 is a THEME CHALLENGE-ADD A RIBBON OR A BOW.

I didn't make a card for this challenge but rather an ornament. I had started these ornaments during COVID. I had painted the noses and the heads but then did nothing. I am trying to finish unfinished projects in my craft room so I tackled finishing a few of these over Thanksgiving.

Below is the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Badge for Challenge #608:

I started off by painting toothpick for the nose and spray painting a styrofoam ball for the head. When dry, I covered the head with some Snotex for texture. When dry, I adhered the nose and beaded eyes for the face.

I also painted the top of the salt shaker white and added some glitter paint for shine, something you cannot see from the angle of the snowflake. I added some candy cane sequins in the shaker and used E7000 to adhere the head to the glass. 

I added a piece of white embroidery floss to the top of the shaker and glued this onto the head. I then added trim around the bottom of the "hat" and around the neck of the snowman. My last detail was to add the wreath with the ribbon.

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #608

 Hello Friends!!!

There is a NEW challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge this week. This will be the last one of the year!!! Challenge #608 is a THEME challenge. Add a BOW OR A RIBBON to your project.

I created a Christmas card for this week. I used dies from Spellbinders and paper from 49& Market to create this card. The colors were inspired by the Inspiration Badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #608.

I started my project by die cutting the pine branches from green. I then die cut and put together the ornament and holly.

I adhered a piece of dry embossed, white cardstock on an A2 card front and layered a piece of 49 & Market paper that I had die cut using a border die. I then layered my die cut images over the card front.

I added the bow over the ornament and the sentiment and the card was finished. This would be an easy card to create a ton of if you did it assembly line style.
