Let it Snow

Hello, Thanks for dropping by!  Today I have a card that I've created for The Stamping Boutique monthly challenge - Winter/Holiday.  I won this stamp in one of their other challenges and think she's just adoarable! Her name is KK.  I coloured her with my prismacolors and blended some of the darker blue into the background to make it look more like snow swirling about her.  I just love it when the flakes glitter in the sunlight as they're blown around. I inked the edges and matted it on some cardstock.  I lpopped it up on some fun snowflake paper, then I added some silver and blue ribbon tied together. For a final touch I tucked in three let it snow tickets from Scribbles by Sandy (They are matted on cardstock with the edges distressed.).  I did add some silver glitter, it doesn't show in the picture, but when the light hits it, the snowflakes sparkle.
The forecast here is calling for snow and I can't wait! Those crazy carpets of ours are all ready to hit the slopes!

Stamps:  KK - Stamping Boutique; Tickets - Scribbles by Sandy
Papers:  Misc snowflake; Stampin' Up cardstock

Sweet Thing!

Today I have a card that I've made for Digi My World's challenge - Candy.  They have a free image set you can use, (I have used three different ones from their set - there's more) but you can use any one of their images as long as it's sweet!  I coloured the candy in the colours of my favorite hard candy!  Then I layered them on cardstock.  The patterned paper is from ATD and I loved the kalidoscope look to it.  I added some cotton candyish ribbon and the sentiment is computer generated.  With a bit of distressing, it was a fun card to make.  I'm also entering this card in The Stamping Boutique's challenge - for someone special.  I have made this card with a special little someone in mind! Plus in Stamping Sisters in Christ   challenge - anything goes.

Let's Go Fly A Kite!

I have another birthday card for The Stamping Boutique that I have just made.  I have used a new digi stamp that I have just gotten from Stretch N' Bubbles called You Lift Me Up.  I sponged some ink around the kite layer to blend it a bit with the cardstock, but it's hard to see in this picture.  I also added the flower eyelets since they went with the sweet flowers in the patterned paper.  Pink embroidery thread was added to go with the kite string. 

Supplies:
Stamps:  You Lift Me Up from Stretch N' Bubbles; Sentiment from Lil' Inkers Designs
Ink: Ink It Up- Chocolate Brown; Windflower- Blue; prismacolor pencil crayons
Papers: Stampin' Up cardstock; Patterned papers by ATD Momenta
Accessories: Ribbon- Mulitcraft Inports; misc embroidery thread; flower eyelets - Forever in Time
Tools: hammer; eyelet punch

Everyone Loves Cake!

Hello everyone! It's time for some cake over at The Stamping Boutique.  They have been celebrating their birthday over there and I have made a cake for them.  It's a little late, but better late than never, right!  I love cake with layers and sparkles so this card has those aspects incorporated into it.  I added some sparkles to the layers of icing and the ribbon has sparkles woven into it.  I used Fiskar glue dots to pop up the two layers, and tucked the flagpole under the first layer.

Supplies:
Stamps:  DDH cake from their Hello Season's set; Sentiment flag from Lil' Inkers Designs.
Paper:   Misc papers from my stash
Ink:   Stampsology - Black; Prismacolor pencil crayons
Accessories:  Sparkly mulitcoloured string; DecoArt Twinkles Writer - Silver; Fiskar glue dots.
