'Tis The Season


Here's my card for this week's Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. Check out this fancy cupcake! It's really hard for me to make a card that is almost completely white, so I tried to add texture and sparkle to add some interest. I hope you can see the detail!


Here are the DEEtails:

I arranged my digital images from this week's sponsor, Amber Ink, then printed the picture. I added some flocking to the tree and snowy ground. Then I added a little bit of glitter to both the tree and the swirls. I pulled out some pink, green, and blue rhinestones from my stash and added them to my tree. Then I added a layer of Pink Pirouette card stock and a piece of Pink Pirouette grosgrain ribbon on a Pear Pizzazz card. Hope you like it!

Tied Up With Bows


Today's card is for the CR84FN challenge. I adore the stack of ribbons on the right and knew right away that I wanted to make a card full of ribbons.


DEEtails:

I started off with a piece of Crumb Cake card stock and tied on various Real Red ribbons - 1/2" Striped Grograin, 1" Stitched Grosrain, 1 1/2" Striped Grosgrain and 1" Polka Dot Grosgrain. I wanted a fun sentiment, so I typed it up in Susie's Hand and printed it in brown ink on Real Red card stock. I adhered my layers to a Crumb Cake card for a fun and simple card. Hope you're having a fabulous day!

Christmas Wreath


Happy Turkey Day everyone! :) Hope you are enjoying some time with family and friends! We are home for with our families for the week and this time I decided not to bring ANY crafting supplies with me. Not to worry though... I spent last weekend whipping up a few cards to keep you entertained. Enjoy!

I decided to make a cute little Christmas card for the wee Memories Put a Little Pink Scrappy Saturday Challenge. It's always fun to add pink to a card, isn't it?


Here are the DEEtails:

I started off punching a 2 1/2" circle out of Naturals White card stock and a bunch of Wild Wasabi branches with my Bird Punch. I trimmed the long end of each branch off, then adhered and overlapped them to the perimeter of my circle. to make a wreath. I added some pink rhinestones from my stash and adhered my wreath to a piece of Naturals White card stock, matted with some Blusshing Bride card stock. I added a Pretty in Pink Satin bow and the stamped sentiment from my Christmas Greetings set, matted with more Blushing Bride card stock.

Hope you like it!
