A new card I made today for the challenge at Allsorts Challenge; the challenge is to create your own background.  For my card I used the following items:

• Stampin Up neutral sequins

• Decoupage papers butterfly chronicle rice paper

Please wish me luck and thank you for stopping by today!

Mermaid

 

I live close to the Atlantic Ocean and am always mystified by how vast and beautiful it is.  The design paper on my card is from a paper pad by Prima marketing called "The 3 Girls Tale".

I made this card for the challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch and will be submitting it to the challenge.

So happy you stopped by today!

Shades of Blue

 

Blue is my favorite color, with green as a close second.  I recently bought this Shades of Blue paper and when I saw the challenge at Inspirational, shades of blue, this week I knew I would put this paper to use on my next card.

The supplies I used are:  Stampin' Up shades of blue paper, spotlight on nature dies and pearls.  The sentiment is from Memory Box.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Special birthday day

I recently purchased this Arched foliage embossing folder from Altenew and used it to make this birthday card for my Cousin.  The image was embossed then I cut around the leaves and added this pretty flowered paper to add some color to my card.  The sentiment and pearls were added next to complete my idea.

I will be submitting this card to this week's challenge at the Can you handle the pressure challenge blog.  The challenge this week is Anything goes with a twist of white.

So happy you stopped by today!

Buzzin by to say Hi

I made this card for this week's challenge at Freshly Made Sketches (see below).  These cute, happy little bees are just too cute and when I saw the sketch the bees popped into my head.  The bees, flowers and sentiment are a set from Brass & Bliss.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Nuts & Bolts

 

So, I've had these little robot, doggy and sentiment stamps for a long, long time.  I knew some day the inspiration to use them would come to me.  I recently added the nuts & bolts dies from Stampin' Up to my every growing collection of dies and as it turns out when I saw this week's challenge at Allsorts Challenge

viola! a card was born.

The prize is two A5 stamp sets from Sweet Poppy:
