Happy Sunday

 



Hello and happy Sunday.  I am squeaking in before the current challenge ends at AAA Birthday #22: A Large Sentiment.  I pulled out some die cuts that my bestie Kim sent me a while back and used them to make a pair of cards that I am also entering at the MFT Color Challenge #160, Addicted to Stamps and More #399: Any Occasion (birthday), WWC310: Occasions (birthday), and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.







Here is a closer look at each card...I am also entering this card with my bear and his tower of chocolate gifts at Addicted to CAS #192: Animal and Inkspirational #233: Tower.  I sponged ink on the die cut letters and adhered them to a card front, adding my bear popped up with foam tape.





I added strips of colored card stock to the back of my die cut card front, after popping out all of the letters.  Then I added my chocolate cake right on top of the 'O' in you.





My next card is inspired by the sketch at MFT Sketch Challenge #530 and MFT Slimline Challenge: Birthday Wishes.  I created this little scene using MFT Winter Songbirds, and the MFT Cloud stencil.  I don't use Twitter, but love this playful sentiment.

I am also entering this card at Seize the Birthday #208: Create a Scene, Addicted to Stamps and More #399: Any Occasion (birthday), WWC310: Occasions (birthday), Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes, and Addicted to CAS #192: Animal.






I always love a reason to pull out some PTI stamps, and the challenge to Create a Thinking of You Card at Ink to Paper this week gave me all the reason I needed.  I used stamps from Fence Line Summer and a sentiment from Botanical Silhouettes for this card.






Last to post, but first to create....this card was inspired by the photo at  Just Us Girls #573.  I fell in love with that wonderful sky, and attempted to create one just like it myself, using blue, purple and green  Distress Oxide inks, Avery Elle Clear Shimmer Spray and dots of white paint.  I found this trees die in my stash, and thought it would play off the trees in the inspiration photo.  I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.







Thanks for Visiting

  8. Love the two "you take the cake" cards. I like how the two are similar yet very different. I really like how you replaced the "o" with the cake. So clever. Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps and More!
