CIC # 103 - Love You Muchly

Hola ya'll!

I'm over the moon excited to bring you today's Cupcake Inspiration project.  One of my favorite illustrators is sponsoring us and we got some beautiful images to play with this week. 

Our sponsor this week is Heather Ellis, illustrator of Pure Innocence stamps.  Her images are just darling and they are so fun to color and work with.  This week Heather is being so very generous in offering 3 digital images to this weeks winner.  How fantastic is that?!  You should go check out her site.  It's awesome! 

Without further delay, I give you this weeks Cupcake Inspiration photo.  For this weeks challenge, click HERE.

Don't these wonderful cupcakes look absolutely gorgeous?!  I wanted to eat all of them when I saw the photo. lol  There's something about daisies that I just adore.  And, see that cute pop of pink in the back with the butterfly?  Yep...LOVE!  Here is the card I created for this weeks challenge.



I had so much fun with this card.  For some reason, the best photo I got, makes her face look striated.  I'm not sure why that is as it's not that way in real life.  I think it may be time for a new camera.  Anyway, I used THIS sketch loosly, added a flourish, some embossing, an embossed MFT rolled rosette and the sentiment.  Easy to put together, and so much fun.  I think I know just who I'm going to give this to. *wink*

So, now I leave you to make your way over to the CIC blog to see what the other Sweeties have created for you today.  I'm sure you're going to be as inspired as I always am. 

Have a wonderful day!!

CCC #16 - Peace On Earth

Good day!

I hope you've had a wonderful weekend, filled with lots of fun things.  I'm packing again, so my fun is at a minimum again this weekend.  I did spend some time with a friend yesterday.  We went to see some live music.  It was a nice night, so we sat outside on the patio.  That was fun.

I have another Christmas card for you.  This weeks challenge is a recipe challenge.  We were to use one designer/patterned paper, stars and rub ons.  I struggled with this one a bit.  I didn't realize that I really didn't have that many rub ons to use. lol  For this weeks challenge, click HERE.

My rub ons are the small black scroll looking things in the corners.  Talk about pathetic! lol  I think I'm going to have to go find some rub ons that I can use, that will look better.  I'm happy with my card, but didn't realize how pink it was until after I got my photo taken.  Inside it didn't look that bright.  Go figure.  I think it turned out ok, but might be missing something.  Eh, I'll just leave it alone. lol

The other elves have created some great cards today.  You should head over and check them out. :)

Have a great day!

Twisted Sketches #51 - Social Butterfly

Hi ya'll!

This will be my only post for today.  Please visit the Unscripted Sketches blog to see what fabulous projects everyone has posted for you today.

I bring you this weeks Twisted Sketches card.  The twist this week is: Button - any how, any way.  I loved this sketch, and had a great time with my card, and butterflies, of course.  For this weeks sketch challenge, click HERE.

I remember in school, one of my teachers called me a social butterfly.  She said I would always speak to everyone, and knew no strangers.  That's still true to this day.  I love making new friends, and I'll speak to just about anyone.  When speaking to my daughter the other day, some of the stuff she said reminded me of how similar we are in personality.  She has now become my social butterfly.  She loves it when I sneak cards or little notes into her backpack to find unexpectedly, so this one will definitely be her next surprise.  The sketch was fabulous, and the sentiment goes perfectly with my favorite, butterflies. 

Alright, ready to be inspired again?  I knew you were, so head on over to the Twisted Sketches blog to see what gorgeous cards are posted this week!

Have a great day!
