A New Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!!

Hey Friends!! It is time for a NEW Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. Challenge #572 is a COLOR challenge. Can you guess what ones from my card????


The green is an extra color but Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #972 is all about using RED, WHITE, and BLUE on a card!!!

Okay, okay, I probably should have stuck to the badge but I really am not a fan of using only red, white and blue on a card. 


I don't send out patriotic cards for holidays so I went with coloring in my tulips red, the background blue and using white/red elements on my card. 


The tulips stamp is a background from Simon Says Stamp! The border was in my stash so I am not sure of the company. The sentiment is from  Pink Fresh Studio and the rick rack is a die from MFT Stamps.

For more information and to see the addition of some NEW members of the Design Team, hop on over to Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. I cannot wait to see what you create!!

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

I created this CAS with a stamp that is very old. I saw some cards on IG with this fun Joe Cool stamp and I had to have it.


I think this makes a perfect Father's Day card!!! The sentiment is from my stash.

Just a Quick Post

Hey friends!! Just a quick post to upload my card for The Color Throwdown Challenge #746.


It was to use the colors below. 


I used Pink Fresh Studio's Intricate Stitched Ovals, Arch Florals, Around the Shape Arches and Pretty Frames 2 for my card.


I colored my flowers in with Copic Markers. I did make a boo boo on the right hand side of the card and had to add some more sequins that I didn't plan on. I love how it came out. 


That is all from me today. Thanks for stopping by!!

There is a New Challenge at Cupcake Inspirations Challenges!!

Hey Friends!! 

There is a new challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenges this week. Challenge #571 is a theme challenge-Father's Day/or Someone Special Masculine.

I chose to do a card that could be used for birthdays, going away, even Father's Day, depending on what sentiment you choose to use on this inside.

The badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #571 is below:

My card was originally made for a kid that I work with that was moving on to greater things. I chose to use the colors I did because they were festive and I LOVED how they went together. 


The pinata is from Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is from My Favorite Things. The fringe die is also from MFT but I believe is retired. 


I hope this card inspires you to join us this week at Cupcake Inspirations Challenges. Hop on over to the CIC BLOG to see details and other amazing projects from the design team. 

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

Hello friends!!  

I am just popping in to remind you that there is still time to play with Cupcake Inspirations Challenges #570. It is a theme challenge-ANYTHING GOES. 

My card below uses a sentiment by this weeks sponsor-Your Next Stamp


The Whatnot Sentiment Stamp Set from Your Next Stamp is one of my FAVORITES.


I have used this particular sympathy stamp on at least ten other cards. It is my go to sympathy sentiment.

I paired the stamped sentiment with a flower from Pinkfresh Studio and a background from Memory Box.


I added some sequins around the sentiment for some emphasis.
