Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #540-A Color Challenge

 Hello friends!! There is another new Cupcake Inspiration Challenge this week. It is a color challenge.

Can you guess what colors I used for the challenge? Below is the badge for the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #540.


I created my card using die cuts that I had around. I started off by embossing a piece of Neenah White Cardstock using the Altenew Crystal Wall 3D Embossing Folder. 


The butterfly and flower are from My Favorite Things. I believe the leaves are from Altenew?


Please hop on over to the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge Blog and play with us this time!! I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Reminder

Hello everyone!! I hope this finds you well.

I had fun playing with my new Spellbinders dies-Sweet Birds on a Branch for my card. I used a combination of Copic Markers and Distress Inks to color them in. I actually screwed up two birds in the making of this card. I tried to put "eyes" on them with some Liquid Pearls and messed up. Lucky I made more than one set of birds!!!


The background was done by shading Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I wanted to make the background more green than blue to give the illusion of leaves in the background.


I added some white gel pen on each of the birds for a bit more detail. The leaves and the wings also have some Clear Sparkle Pen on top. This set was so fun to use!! The sentiment strips I pulled from my stash and am not sure who created them. 


I layered the strips on top of each other to take up some space. I love how this turned out!!! 

Hop on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Blog to enter this challenge. I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!!

Cleaning My Desk Up with Cupcake Inspiration Challenge

Happy Monday everyone!!

It has been a week since I have posted. Not that I have been non creative but taking photos has not been my thing as of late. I am trying to use my camera on manual and there has been a huge learning curve. Some of my the photos I am posting today are not perfect but please bear with me.

I have been slowly cleaning up my desk. I have a TON of images I colored in and am trying to actually make cards with them rather then just put them in a box as I usually do.  I created a card to play along with this week's Cupcake Inspiration blog-"Animals."


First I took some Candied Apple Distress Ink and blended it down a piece of white card stock I had die cut using My Favorite Things "Blueprints #13." I then adhered this over a piece Kraft card stock.


The little sheep, the polaroid frame, the hearts and the "i love" part of the sentiment were sitting on my desk, just waiting to be used. I adhered the sheep and the sentiment strips with foam adhesive. I adhered the hearts and die cut a "you" out of a scrap of red card stock I had in my scrap drawer.


I then used a Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle pen colored over all the hearts and the "you" die cut. I completed the card by covering each of these then with Glossy Accents.

That is all for today. I have a ton of other cards to post but am attempting to photograph them again.

I thank you for taking  the time to stop by. Have a fabulous night!!

Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #3-Love You Card

Hi everyone!! Happy Monday!! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!!

It is a new start to the work week and what better way to relax after a long day but to play with us over at Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge Blog. Challenge #3 was posted today and I think this is my favorite one yet!!!


To create my card, I used the first row across-love, add shimmer and hearts. I actually had TONS of ideas rolling around in my head for this one. I decided right off the bat that I was going to use an embossed background. I took out all my Valentine/love embossing folders and created four different backgrounds using white card stock. I also gathered the many scraps I had on my desk to see what I could do with them.


It is a little messy, yes? That is how my room is these days. Either I have time to create or clean. I have been choosing to create and that means my room has been very neglected!! Anyway, here is the card I created:


I die cut the embossed heart panel using My Favorite Things BluePrints #13 and adhered it to my card front. I then cut the piece of American Craft patterned paper scrap to the size I wanted and rounded the edges. I adhered it to the card and then added a piece of white card stock scrap that fit EXACTLY how I wanted it across the top-no trimming at all!!


I die cut the "love" out of gold shimmer paper using a Paper Smooches die. I then stamped the "you" using Mama Elephant's "Happy Everything"  stamp set. I actually had to mask it because it did have a "for" before the "you" and I did not want that. I then used a scrap of the gold to make a mat for the the stamped sentiment.


I adhered the sentiment onto the card front and moved on to embellishing. I added the white heart that was on my desk to the card with foam adhesive and colored it with clear Wink of Stella. I then adhered a few sequins in gold and white. I apologize for the white sequins looking pink but they are iridescent and they were hard to photograph.

I am so with HAPPY how this card came out and have a few other cards already planned out in my head for this challenge. I hope that you come on over and join us at Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. I cannot wait to see what you all come up with!!

Have a fabulous week!!
