Twisted Sketches #59 - Friends

Hi everyone!

Welcome back to another Twisted Sketch challenge!  This weeks sketch is super, as usual, and the twist is: Friend - any how, any way.  For this weeks challenge, clck HERE.


I really love the colors!  I used Color Create #70, which was aqua, green, purple and white.  Talk about bold and bright!  Paired with this weeks awesome sketch, and some of my favorite Verve stamps, it's a win/win for me.  I know just who's going to get this card too. *wink*

I'm sure you'll be more than inspired by what my fellow designers have created using this weeks sketch.  Head over and check them out. :)

Have a wonderful day!
Hugs!

CIC #110 - Birthday Wishes

Hello everyone!

Happy Mother's Day!  Welcome to another Cupcake Inspirations challenge!  This week we have another gorgeous photo and a super fab sponsor. 


This week we're sponsored by Glitterbabe's Digi's.  We were lucky enough to get to play with a few of her digi's and they are wonderful!  You should head over and check out these great digi's.  You won't be disappointed!

Now, onto this weeks inspiration photo.  I love the bright colors.  For this weeks challenge, click HERE.


Aren't the bees just adorable?!  I think they are just too cute!  Below is the card I made based on the photo.


Now, before you question, I want to explain.  I took all of the colors from the inspiration photo, and went with the more muted route.  I have had these papers forever, and really wanted to use them.  So, here they are.  I used the Dahlia digi from Glitterbabe's Digi's, colored with my Copics and popped up three different layers with foam adhesive.  In real life it's really dimensional.  I used last weeks Sweet Sunday sketch and I love how it turned out.  I hope my mom likes her birthday card.

The other Sweeties have created some amazing projects today.  I do hope you'll head over to see what they have done.  Amazing, as always.

Have a great day!
Hugs!

CIC #109 - Mom

Hi ya'll!

It's Sunday, which brings us to another Cupcake Inspiration Challenge.  This weeks challenge is really bright and colorful.  We also have a fabulous sponsor.


Anita B Stampin has some awesome, fabulous images and some wonderful items in their store.  You should go check them out.  I'm sure you'll enjoy the visit to their store and blog.

This weeks inspiration photo is adorable.  I love the idea, and how they decorated the cupcakes.  Just too cute.  For this weeks challenge, click HERE.


See?  Isn't it adorable?  I challenged myself to do something clean and simple for this challenge.  Check it out.


There are no layers, very few embellishments, and the sentiment on white pops against the pink.  I really like how this turned out.  Simple, and fun.  I know my mom will enjoy it.

I hope you'll head over to see what the other Sweeties have created for you today.  They're always very well done.

By the way, don't forget that you have until Wednesday to participate in the latest FYI challenge.  :)

Have a wonderful day!
Hugs!
