Birthday Kitty

 Today I have a card made for a special little girl who has a birthday coming up next month. I used some royal blue cardstock along with a Spellbinders scalloped square die and a Lil Inker die-cut sentiment. The Penny Black image was colored with Copics, and I added some glaze pen rainbow colors to the balloon. The little banner is brand new and from a set of Sizzix thinlet dies I recently won. I had to add a touch of pink to this card since it's for a girl. The ef is by Cuttlebug and I die-cut the sentiment 3 times, stacked it, and covered it with glossy accents.

I'm sharing with these challenges:

Can You Handle the Pressure- A/G must use an EF *optional rainbows

I saw a sign yesterday with some good advice: "Don't take a laxative and a sleeping pill at the same time." 😄😊

A Little Wild

I used SU!'s A Little Wild stamp set for this card, making it entirely out of snippets. The image was stamped on a small snippet of white card, then colored with Copics. I sponged in some soft clouds with Tumbled Glass distress ink, then added some diamond stickles to the bee's wings and bodies. I found some snippets of black and yellow designer papers and decided to make strips side by side. The background was a leftover snippet from a previous project and I was glad to be able to use it. The sentiment was stamped and heat-embossed with white ep on a very tiny snippet of black and then cut with a MFT tiny stitched tag die, but I only used the center portion of the tag die. I placed this on a golden yellow textured card base.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Pixie's Snippets Playground #330 - must use snippets

Going Wild on Skates :)

Today I have a fun card using Deedee's Digis Go Wild digital stamp set. Deedee's Digis is sponsoring the Outlawz Greeting challenge which is "anything goes with a sentiment." I love this zebra image on roller skates! Ha! The sentiment just adds to the fun for me!  I used some red polka dot dsp, along with a strip of animal print that matches the zebra, and added a piece of red & white polka dot ribbon to finish everything off.

Don't forget about Deedee's progressive challenge which will earn you a free digital stamp set if you play along each month!  I hope you snagged your free basket digi already, but if you didn't, it's still available! You can find the details HERE on Deedee's blog. The new September challenge begins today!!

                                     

Thanks for stopping by and I hope your week is starting off with a smile :)
