Anything Goes!

Good Morning!

I am a day late getting this posted.....things here are rather hectic!

Stamp Fairy sponsored the Stampin' For The Weekend challenge blog this week, and the challenge was Anything Goes!

I started with Jen's March SFYTT as my layout for this card.  Then I printed out these Freebie Flowers on X-Press It Blending card, and coloured them with my copics.

The paper is American Crafts Driver's Ed.  My sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Cupcake Inspiration

Good Morning!  Hope you are all enjoying your day!  We are in for a sunny, warm treat today and actually for the rest of the week, so it just might be spring on the way!

This week, Stamp Fairy is sponsoring the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog.  If you haven't checked them out, head over there!  They have great inspiration photos!

The cupcakes this week had an Irish/St. Patrick's Day theme, so I went with a birthday card for my nephew, who will turn 1 on St. Patty's Day!

Again, I went with Herb St Patrick's Day as my image of choice.  I love Herb and his clovers!

The sketch I went with is Mojo Monday Sketch #219.  I love all the layers!

Herb was printed on X-Press It Blending card, then coloured with copics.  After cutting him out, he was mounted on a circle cut out with my nestabilities. 

The paper is from Bloom & Grow by My Minds Eye.  This paper turned out to be perfect for St. Patty's Day themed cards!

The sentiment is from By The Numbers, from My Favorite Things.  The "1" was cut out using By the Numbers die-namics, also from My Favorite Things.

Thanks for stopping by today!  Enjoy!

Lots of Layers!

Good Morning!

This week, Stamp Fairy is sponsoring the Lots of Layers Challenge over at the Sweet Stampin' Blog!  Since St. Patty's Day is just around the corner, and my dad and nephew share that day as a birthday, I thought it would be perfect to get their birthday cards made.

This is what I created for my dad!

I started out by using an old Mojo Monday Sketch as my starting point.  Herb St Patrick's Day was printed out onto X-Press It Blending card, then coloured with copics.  He was then fussy cut out, and mounted on an oval, cut out with my nestabilities.

The paper is from My Minds Eye Bloom & Grow.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Another Wryn!

Good Afternoon!

As mentioned in my post yesterday, I am totally IN LOVE with Wryn, the newest character in the Tiddly Inks store.  Have you gone there yet??  You really should!

I used the MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge Sketch #60 as my starting point for this card:

This is Wryn - Grow A Little Love.  She was printed on X-Press It Blending card and coloured with copics.  After fussy cutting her out, I added some Smooch Illuminate to the hearts for some glitter.

The circles were cut out using my nestabilties, and the kraft circle was embossed with the Swirls Cuttlebug folder.  The sentiment, from So Happy For You, is a Stampin' Up set I believe I got through Sale-A-Bration a few years ago!

The paper, is again stuff from my stash that I am slowly cleaning out.  This is Sonoma by Scenic Route.  I love the combo of colours in this paper!

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

I'm back!

Sorry for the blogging hiatus!  I am hopefully back into the swing of things now. 

My DH and I welcomed a baby boy on February 28, so we've been busy getting adjusted to our larger, and complete family of 5! 

If you haven't been to the Tiddly Inks store lately, I highly recommend it.  Christy has created Wryn, who is totally my new favourite image!  I love absolutely everything about her!

I created this card using the Sweet Sunday Sketch #153.  Thanks for the great sketches Karen!

I started by printing Wryn Birthday Girl onto X-Press It Blending card and colouring her with copics.  After fussy cutting her out, I added some Glossy Accents to the presents for some shine.

The paper is from my Echo Park Springtime stash, which I am starting to make a dent into!

That's it for today!  Time to get some supper made before little ones wake up!

Thanks for stopping by.
