The card base is Whisper White, and the next layer is Smokey Slate card stock.  I stamped the hardwood image in Smokey Slate ink on a white panel.  The banner was die-cut with MFT Die-namics Mini Pennant.  I adhered two small flowers on each corner using SU! Stippled Blossoms stamp set.  Two thumb tacks holds the birthday sign in place.  The sentiment is from Petite Pairs, and was stamped in Pacific Point ink.  For some added details, I adhered Calypso Coral Baker's Twine and silver gems to the banner.

52CCT & Just Add Ink..Santa

My card:




My card today features a sketch Santa Claus from Flourishes called Santa I Believe.  I started out with Whisper White, Basic Black and pretty patterned paper from SU! Festival of Prints DSP.  I stamped the image in Crumb Cake ink, and adhered it on a piece of Black card stock.  I really like how it made the image stand out.  I then took some retired red ribbon from Stampin Up and wrapped it in both corners.  The sentiment is from SU! Petite Pairs, and was stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.  This was a fun card to create!

I'm also linking up to Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge - Use Some Red.

Just Add Ink Challenge #193

Happy Friday!

I have a card to share with you for this week's Just Add Ink Inspiration Challenge.  It's all about "STARS"..



This is what I came up with:




Today, I have a CAS card using the MS Star Punch.  The card base is Whister White, and the layers are Gumball Green and Silver (since I had these out from yesterday's card, I decided to use them again!).  I created a Christmas tree using SU! Print Poetry DSP and more silver card stock.  I pulled out some brown paper from my stash and created the tree trunk.  The sentiment is from SU! Petite Pairs, and was stamped in Memento Bamboo Leaves.

Thanks for visiting today,

IBSIC #35 & JAI #144

Hello my friends,

I have a card to share with you for 2 separate card challenges.  This week, at Inspired by Stamping , we were asked to use pink, gold and white, as the main colors.  Below is the photo inspiration:


IBSIC #35


I found this new card challenge, Just Add Ink #144, so I decided to play along and incorporate "Music" to my card:



The base card is Whisper White and the next layer is pretty paper from Webster's Pages' Clean & Simple.  I added gold and pink ribbon across the card.  I cut out a tag using music notes from Graphic 45.  Using the Layered Poinsettia Spellbinders, I cut a pink poinsettia and distressed the edges using Spun Suger Distress Ink by Jim Holtz (not sure if you can see it) - now that it's getting dark earlier, the lighting is not that great.  I adhered a small pink button to my tag and some more gold ribbon.  The sentiment is from Just Rite's Noel Christmas Ornaments Stamp Set.  Lastly, I added some pink rhinestones to the bottom of the card. 

Thank you so much for stopping by!
