IPC11... You're Tweet!

Hello Everyone,

I stumbled on this new-to-me challenge, Newton's Nook Inky Paws, and I fell in love with the bright citrus colors!  It gave me the chance to take out my Copic markers. 

 

My card:

  

 

I began with a Whisper White card base, followed by a layer of hot pink.  The rest of the patterned papers are from my stash.  The digital image was colored with the following Copic markers: R83, Y02, Y06, Y11, YG00, YG01, YG03.  The banner was die-cut with MFT Fishtail Flags.  For some added details, I adhered small rhinestones to the banner.

 

Have a wonderful weekend,





 



 

FMS143 & CMCC27 ... Make a Wish

Hi Everyone,

Happy 4th of July!  I'm sharing a card for this week's Colour Me & Freshly Made Sketches.

    
                  

I decided to go with a vintage look:

 

I will make this short and sweet, since I have family coming over today:

 

Stamps:  Inspired by Stamping Big Wishes

Paper: Whisper White, Blackberry Bliss, Patterned Paper from Little Yellow  Bicycle

Ink: Basic Black

Accessories: Rhinestones from Kaisercraft, taffeta ribbon, circle nesties, 1-3/4" scallop circle

 

For the flower, I cut out 5 scalloped circles.  I gathered all the circles and used a 1/16" punch to make a hole in the center.  I attached a brad in the middle and then layer by layer, scrunched up each circle.

Red, White and Blue Birthday Wishes

Happy Tuesday!

I'm popping in very quickly to share a card I put together last night.  My inspiration came from the Red, White and Blue colors at this week's The Kraft Journal and the simple layout at Seize the Sketch.

 

 

 

 

 

I began with a Kraft card base and some leftover Fourth of July patterned paper from last year's projects.  I believe they are from Pebbles.  The yummy cupcake was cut at 2 3/4 inches from Cricut's Doodlecharms cartridge.  I then mounted it onto a piece of Kraft card stock that I embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.  The image panel is matted on a Night of Navy card stock.  I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of white card stock and adhered it to the cardfront overlapping the image panel.  The Happy Birthday message is from SU! Button Greetings, and was stamped in Early Espresso ink.  The patterned paper is broken up with some Crumb Cake seam binding.  I finished off the card with 2 enamel dots.
