A Card for Mum

Well It's time again for another Challenge over at The Stamping Shack blog, where I am on the Design Team.  This time the theme is "A Card for Mum".  I know your thinking it's early for Mother Day but in the UK Mother's Day is March 10th this year.  So come on over and join in and show us your creative cards for MUM.  I chose the image " Daisy with flowers" from the Oscar and Daisy range and can be purchased over at the stamping shack store.  

I colored my printed digi with Copic markers. I don't know if many of you Spellbinder fans use wax paper with your dies to cut cleanly. Well I do and look at what you can do with the die cut wax paper image, neat right?  The die is called Floral Ovals.  I wanted this card to be very "sparkly", so added tons of bling and I mean tons for me, LOL. Even used bling for her eyes.  The beautiful flowers are from       and I added some white stickles to the inside petals for even more sparkly effects.  I am not the sparkly kind but am learning to like it.  I think this card is really just to adorable!  Not sure who is going to be the lucky recipient yet b/c I have to make 6 mum's day cards for family and friends this year.  But Not bad for the first one, right?

Well that's all is have for today.  Be sure to head over to the Blog and check out all the inspiration form my other talented team mates. Thanks for popping by and visiting.  Leave me some Comment Love if your so inclined.....

It's time for another challenge

Hi all wanted to tell you it's time for our 2nd challenge for this month over at the Stamping Shack Blog where I am a DT.  The Challenge is called "Red, White & Pink".  I hope you join in the fun, so you have a chance at winning some very cute & quirky digital images from the Stamping Shack Store.   Here is my DT card for this challenge.

I used an image called "Tea for Two" from the stamping shack store found here in the Lilliputs Catergory.  I printed the image out and colored with colored pencils and oms.  Attached to card front and added all the embellishments.  This one went to my sweet little sister, Brigitte, for Valentine's day.   

Well that is all for now.  Hope you'll come play in the Challenge! 

Until next time,

Happy Crafting
