There is Still Time to Play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #567

Hey friends!! Just popping in to remind you that there is still time to play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #567. The card I created for this week is a birthday card. 

I used a combination of pre-made die cuts and paper from the Strawberry Lemonade Collection by 49 & Market, a die from Pinkfresh Studio and sentiments from my stash.

The Cupcake Inspirations Challenge was a color challenge this time around. It is to use ORANGE, PINK and Yellow on a card.

A NEW Challenge at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge-CIC567

Hey Friends!!! It is time for a NEW challenge over at the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog. This week it is a color challenge. Can you figure out what colors from my card below?

Okay, I did add some green on my card too but I used the badge as my inspiration. It is not quite so bright in real life.

For my flower stamp, I used the Wonderful in Every Way stamp by Pinkfresh Studio with the matching stencils. I decided to mix the ink colors on the flowers using the challenge colors. I don't usually do things like this but it came out really cool.

The die cut and the sentiment were from my stash!!! I "think" they might be MFT? I cannot find the products but I know I have them!!!

I hope you decide to join us over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge this week. I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

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

A Simple Handmade Birthday Card

Hello friends!! 

Just popping in with a card that I created for this week's Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #581. I was on vacation this week and I missed my craft room. I need to figure out how to take some of my stuff with me to do SOMETHING when I have down time at night!!!

I used stuff I had already had in my "extra" stash for this card. The only thing I did was splatter some Tart Cranberry Distress Mica Stain on the embossed background and WHAT A MESS I made all over my hands!! I hadn't used it before and for some reason when I shook it, the spray seeped out at the top. 

I think this came out really cute!! I used Spellbinder's Balloon Party Animal Die for my focal image. I paper pieced it from a piece of ombre scrap paper!!! The sentiment is the Sentiment Label Blocks from The Ink Blot Shop. 

The embossing folder is the Classic Hession from Crafter's Companion. It is a newer purchase for me and I will be using this again soon.

Well that is all from me today!! I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a fabulous night!
