Birthday CASE






I CASED this card from Renee Cobur, using the Apple Blossoms stamp set.  I like how the torn edges give it some character.  I changed the colors to Old Olive, Tangerine Tango, Rich Razzleberry, and So Saffron.  The  sentiment is from 'So Happy for You.'  

Thanks for looking!

Guest Demonstrator Cards

 








I went home this weekend and my sister asked me to be the guest demonstrator at her $5 Friday Card Class!  I don't demonstrate very often, so I was excited to be able to (Thanks Rochelle!). The group had requested a young boy card and a girly/mothers day card.  So this is what I came up with to demonstrate!

Ice Cream!


 
After I started playing with the colors for this week's Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge #36 it made me think of ice cream.  I punched flowers out of Daffodil Delight, Regal Rose, Pink Pirouette, and Peach Parfait to create the ice cream.  The cone is hand cut from Creamy Carmel cardstock.  On the Whisper White background I added white polka dots by punching out dots and gluing them on to add a subtle background.  The sentiment is from the FYI stampset.  To finish it off I added Pretty in Pink ribbon and a couple rhinestones.


Thanks for stopping by!

I made a girly, springy card for this weeks Create with Connie and Mary Sketch Challenge

 








 


It turned out that pretty much everything I used is non-current!  The butterflies and greeting is from the Just Celebrate stamp set.  I colored in the butterflies with Tempting Turquoise, Regal Rose, and So Saffron.  Thanks for looking!

Pillow


I wanted to do something crafty today, but didn't know what to make, so I made a pillow!  I just made up the pattern as a went along- I love patchwork style stuff.  It was fun to make and turned out fun looking!

Classy Thank You



 
   I liked how simple the colors in the Stampin' Celebration Challenge were this week.  I made a very simple, but somewhat classy card to go with them.  I used a Basic Black base and put a piece of Whisper White embossed with Polka Dots and cut out flowers from the Big Shot.  The tag punch is stamped with 'thank you' from the Garden Greetings stamp set.

Our Purple Door!!

My husband and I wanted to paint our front door and this is what we decided on...
PURPLE!!!!

I didn't want typical door decor for our new door, so I made my own.  I attached three mini wreaths to the long sticks and tied random fun colored ribbon around the wreathes. 

Our door isn't boring any more and we love it!!!
