CMCC#8... Birthday Wishes

Hi Friends!

I am playing along today with Colour Me.  We are challenged to work with Baked Brown Sugar, Soft Sky and Pistachio Pudding. I thought of creating a baby card, but then changed my mind.


This is what I came up with:




The card base is Very Vanilla, and the pretty patterned paper is from My Little Shoebox.  The dress form was die-cut with Tim Holtz' sewing room die, and was embellished with a Soft Sky color crochet trim that I found in my stash.  A trio of pearls completes the look!  The dress form is matted on a Very Vanilla oval, then layered over a baby blue panel.  The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping Fancy Sentiments, and was stamped in Early Espresso ink.  I adhered pearls next to it and added more crochet trim dividing the patterned paper and the soft blue card stock. 

This card is for a couple of challenges:

Seize the Birthday - "Anything Goes" Birthday
Inspired by Stamping - February Customer Gallery Contest

Freshly Made Sketches #69

Hello my friends,

Happy Sunday!  I'm here to share a card for this week's Freshly Made Sketches #69.  We have a fabulous sketch by Linda S:


My card:



The card base is Whisper White, followed by Chocolate Chip cardstock.  The patterned papers are from Kaisercraft The Lake House.  The teacups and sentiment are from SU! Tea Shoppe.  The two teacups are stamped with Pretty in Pink ink (even though it looks much lighter in the picture).  Lastly, I added tiny pearls to the tea cups and on the top right-hand side of the card.

On a personal note, I'm giving my blog a "new look" - I'm still fiddling with the header - not too happy with the way it looks, but hopefully I can find some time next week to finalize it.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I love to read your comments!
