Dynamic Duos #61

Hi Everyone,

I haven't had the opportunity to play along over at Dynamic Duos in a long time!  But I'm happy to say that I created a card for this week's card challenge!

My card:

When I saw the color combo, the only thing that came to mind was a very feminine card, with pearls and lace.  I happened to have the dress form with kraft color lace wrapped around as a skirt from a card that I ended up not using (glad I kept it, right?). The base is Pink Pirouette, followed with Whisper White.  I do not have Sahara Sand cardstock, so I used something similar from my stash.  The gorgeous patterned paper is from SU! Fan Fair.  I adhered some delicate lace between that cardstock and Sahara Sand look-alike, to give it a vintage feel.  On the right hand side of the dress form , I added a strip of pink color using the MFT Pinking Edge Border.  The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  The card would not be complete without some pearls!

I also entered my card over at Word Art Wednesday.

Thanks so much for stopping by,

        

Freshly Made Sketches #94 & Seize the Birthday

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

I have a card to share with you today for 2 card challenges:

 My card:

The base of the card is Whisper White, followed by Baja Breeze.  The patterned paper is by Pebbles, Inc. - one of my favorites.  I love using this gingham paper.  Using So Saffron cardstock, I created a pretty flower using the Originals Blossom Party die.  The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping Cupcake Wishes.  I finished it off by adding some pearls here and there.

I'm also sharing my card over at Inspired by Stamping Customer Gallery.

Thanks so much for stopping,

The Paper Players #153

Hello Everyone!

I'm posting one more card tonight!  This one is for The Paper Players Challenge.  It's Christmas in July, even though I've already started making Christmas cards a couple of weeks ago!

 My card:

The base of the card is Whisper White, follwed by red cardstock.  The pretty gold paper is from DCWV.
I recently purchased the Woodland Branch by Memoy Box, and I figured this would be the perfect card challenge to use it for!  I did, however, make it smaller so it would fit in the oval area.  I adhered red baker's twine to the beak of the bird as if it is holding the Christmas ornament.  Both sentiment and image are from Just Rite's Noel Christmas Ornaments Stamp Set.  A few rhinestones and pearls were added on the ornament, inside the oval and on each corner of the card.
