The Crafty Pad's Challenge #116 - Spring is in the Air

Hi again! Here is my card for my second week as Guest Designer over at The Crafty Pad's Challenge Blog. This week the theme is 'Spring is in the Air' and I've used this adorable image called 'Girl at Wishing Well' available at The Crafty Pad. Hope you can join in! This week's challenge is being sponsored by Digital Craft Downloads.
I've been wanting to use this paper again, Basic Grey Lemonade, and I thought it would be perfect for a spring card! I used Martha Steward punches for the butterflies and the ribbon is Stampin Up's Seem Binding Ribbon in Baja Breeze.

Stamps: The Crafty Pad's Girl at Wishing Well (digi), Amy R's Spring Sentiments

The Crafty Pad Challenge #115 - Flowers

Hello!! Guess What??!! I have been asked to be a guest designer this month over at The Crafty Pad's Challenge Blog, and I couldn’t be more flattered! This is my first gig!!

The Challenge this week is 'flowers' and I used this adorable image called ‘Cat in Window’ from The Crafty Pad, which you can find here. The sponser this week is Crafty Emma's Store. Hope you can join in!

For my card I wanted to use this pretty paper - Mabel by My Mind's Eye Stella Rose Collection and I used The Sweet Stop's Sketch 98. I thought the sentiment from CTMH's Sensational Season was perfect. Did you notice I paper peiced the curtains? I thought it provided so much more interest than just colouring them. Not sure if you can tell by the photo, but I used a bit of my Spica Clear Glitter pen on the flowers and the heart on the kitty's chest.

Paper: My Mind's Eye Mabel, Stampin Up Crumb Cake and Not Quite Navy

Stamp: My Crafty Pad's Cat in Window (Digital), CTMH Sensational Season

Ink: Copics, Wild Honey and Vintage Photo DistDistress Ink, SU Not Quite Navy

Accessories: Stampin Up Scallop Punch, CTMH Pearl Opaques, Prisma flowers , Spica Clear Glitter Pen

This card is dedicated to Su Ling and Mingo (my two Siamese Cats who are no longer with me).

I'm entering this card in Paper Sundaes Challenge #63 Spring Blossoms and Catch the Bug's Anything Goes as well.

Happy Easter!

Hello!! I've been busy with a new project which you will see soon enough!! But in the meantime, I have this sweet card to share. This is a digi image called 'Bunny Holding Egg' from Pink Cat Studio which is one of 5 that I won from a contest at Paper Sundaes back when they had their Birthday Celebration. The papers are Kaisercraft's Lilac Avenue Collection, left over from a Scrapbook page I made last year at Dat's (which I still need to finish off with a picture). I used Friday Sketchers #147.


I heat embossed the little eggs on the inside of the card, and I'm not sure if you can tell but the brads inside the flowers are soft and fuzzy!
Paper: Kaisercraft Lilac Avenue Colloction, SU Perfect Plum and Certainly Celery

Stamps: Bunny Holding Egg and sentiment - Pink Cat Studio (digi), CTMH Sensational Season (eggs inside) Ink: Copics, SU Perfect Plum Accessories: Prima flowers, brads from stash, Nestabilities

Small Wonder

Hello! This is Stamping Bella's Babycarriageabella! I love this image and couldn't wait to make this card! I've been meaning to make a card for my friend at work who is expecting. She's due next month already and as soon as I saw the sketch at Bellerific Fridays, I knew it would be for this card.

I used Cosmo Cricket's Togetherness dp, love the colours on these papers!! The tiny buttons are from CTMH and the image was coloured with copics.

Arigato

Hi - it's been a long time!! Well here are two cards I've been working on. They're for my two friends at work (I'll call my Sushi Buddies). Every payday we try to go for lunch and sushi is always top on the list for all three of us!! This image was perfect - her name is Wasabi Ketto from Stamping Bella. The dp is from KaiserKraft's Peachy Keen Collection. I used copics to colour her. A little bit of Diamond Stickles and some CTMH Opaques on one and some rhinestones on the other. Since I used a bit of ribbon, this will qualify for Crafty Pad's Challenge #111 - Use Ribbon. The sentiment inside is computer generated. I'm also entering this in Catch the Bug's Challenge - Scallops.
