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.

Once again, the sentiment is from my stash. I have no clue who makes it but need to go through my stamps and figure it out!!

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

Week 2 of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #534-Snow People

Hello everyone!! I hope that this post finds you all well. 

I am popping in today with a card to remind you of the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #534.

(Source)

The theme is to create a card with Snow People.


I tried to make my card as simple as possible. I used a mix of new and old supplies. I used the Honey Bee Stamps Pierced Snowflake Die on a red card base as my starting point.


I die cut a white rectangle using my pierced rectangles from The Greetery and die cut a square out of that. I stamped a sentiment from Mama Elephant's Jingle Greetings on my rectangle and adhered it to my card.


I used a combo of Prized Ribbon and Peeled Paint Distress Stain on the tiny square and used foam adhesive to adhere it in a diagonal over the rectangle opening. I added a die cut tree and a Mama Elephant stamped snowman to complete my card.


I hope that this card inspires you to come on over and play with us this week. I cannot wait to see what you create!!! Pop on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Blog to see what the other DT members created!!

I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps

Hello everyone!! 

This is my second post for the day for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Fall/Winter 2021. I created a card using CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Coffee Products


I created my background by blending Antique Linen Distress Ink and misting with Old Paper and Antique Linen Distress Stain. 


I then stenciled over the top with Vintage Photo Distress Ink using the CAS-Fridays By the Beans Stencil. I stamped the sentiment using the CAS-Fridays Cup of Coffee stamp set and brown dye ink. 


I adhered a teal die cut coffee cup die cut using the CFS Coffee Cup Die. I added some Glossy Accents over the brown "coffee" in the cup.

World Cardmaking Day and Guest Designer at Just Us Girls #604 with a Halloween Card

*Some Affiliate Links are used in this post. Please see my Affiliate Link Policy.

Hi everyone!! I hope you all are doing well. Are you all playing along today with challenges in honor of World Cardmaking Day? 

For this month I am a guest designer at Just Us Girls Challenges Blog. I am so excited!! This week the theme is Halloween and I created my card in honor of this "holiday."

Below is the graphic for the challenge.

I started off my card by using some Distress Ink in *Twisted Citron and *Mowed Lawn. I then misted some *Twisted Citron Distress Stain, *Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Stain and Distress Mica Spray in Bubbling Cauldron over my ink blended panel.

While that was drying, I used the Elizabeth Craft "Pumpkins" to die cut scraps of orange, black and green papers for my pumpkins.

Before I put my Jack-O'-Lanterns together, I blended *Vintage Photo Distress Ink on all my die cuts. 


I adhered the dried white panel to a green A2, top folding card base. I added my die cuts and then stamped a sentiment from MFT's "Witch Way Candy" stamp set and it was done.

I hope you like my card and please join us this week over at Just Us Girls for the Halloween Challenge!!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a FABULOUS day!! I hope you all are able to have some fun today on World Cardmaking Day.

A Card for You to Brighten Your Day from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps

 Happy Saturday everyone!! I hope that you are all having a fabulous day!!! Today I am popping in with a sneak peek of the card I created for the CAS-ual Fridays Blog.


I used only ONE stamp/die set for this card!! I NEVER do that!! In fact, this is extremely hard for me to do because I think mixing my stamp sets together for a card is fun. 

Pop on over to THIS post to see how I created this with a step-by-step tutorial.

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