There is Still Time to Play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #597-Anything Goes!

 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 #597 is the THEME-ANYTHING GOES!!

This week I decided to create a baby card. I actually made a TON but this is the one that I decided to post for this challenge. Below is the Challenge Badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #597:

I had so much fun combining the Baby Mug Additions and the Storybook 1 Dies from Pretty Pink Posh and the Simon Says Stamp Sweet Elephants Dies.

All of these adorable pieces were die cut from SCRAPS!!! I have a TON of them (as well as pattern paper, which I am also trying to utilize) and I thought yellow and green could be used for a boy or a girl.

I have been having a blast using dies to create cards. Do you like to use dies?

Want to join us this round? To see more details about the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #597, head on over to the BLOG. I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

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

This week I used an image from Laurie Furnell Ink. She generously donated the Autumn Mouse Digital Stamps for the Design Team to use.

For my card, the mouse and the leaves were from the digital stamp set. I colored them in with Copic Markers and then cut each image out.

I covered the A2 card front with pattern paper and layered a panel of paper that I used some Distress Ink to ink blend a sky and some "grass." 

I stamped a small sentiment and adhered the leaves, the mouse and a stamped sunflower to the background.

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

There is Still Time to Play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #577

Hey Friends!!! 

There is still time to play with us over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #577. This round is a THEME challenge-BEARS.

Below is the challenge badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Badge for CIC577.

Once again I used a bear from our sponsor this round, PJ Moore Illustrations. Isn't it so cute?

Once again, I resized the digital stamp and printed it out onto Neenah Solar White cardstock. 

I colored it in with Copic Markers and cut it out. I shaded a white, A2 card front and shaded the back in with some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I then adhered the bear on top. 

I added scraps of pattern paper around the image for some fun detail. I added a sticker label and used stickers as the sentiment. I LOVE how this card came out!!!

A New Cupcake Inspiration Challenge-Challenge #577

 Hello Friends!! 

There is a NEW challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge this week. Challenge #577 is a THEME challenge and it is all about BEARS!!!!

Below is the challenge badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #577.

I created my card with the image our sponsor, PJ Moore Illustrations donated to us. Isn't this so cute?

I started off this card by resizing and printing the digital stamp. I then colored it in with my Copic markers.

I cut down the white card panel and layered it over some scraps of pattern paper that were in my scrap drawer.

I added a sentiment with stickers. I have so many of these tiny stickers from my scrapbook days and I decided I needed to get them out to use. To finish my card off, I added a tiny die cut heart and covered it with clear shimmer pen and Glossy Accents.

To see all the details for Challenge #577 and more fun projects by the Design Team, hop on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog. I hope you decide to join us for this round!!!

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