A Penguin Birthday

Here's another card I made today!  Last weekend I colored 8 images to match a kit I got last year or the year before from Taylored Expressions. Having all the images pre-colored really speeds up my card making!

My niece is turning 4 this week so I will give this card to her. I know it's not pink LOL!  But it's a card done ahead of time for a change!  The end of the week will be busy for me and I know I won't have time to make a card then. 

I used the Techno Stamper Lunchtime Sketch~

TFL!

Supplies~
Stamps: The Cat's Pajamas
Paper: Bazzill cardstock, MME So Sophie Clever 
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, copics
Other: MFT Chevron Stripes Die-namics, MFT Fishtail Stax, yellow stickles

FBW #195 - Open challenge

Sigh...I'm having a hard time starting this post.

Today marks my last challenge with Flutter By Wednesdays....after being on and off the team a few times over the last three years, I have decided to step down permanently.  I've needed to make some changes in life and this is one of them.  I want to thank Danni for having me on the team for so long, it's my favorite challenge and I will still be playing along when time permits (which I hope is often)! To all my FBW teammates, it's been a pleasure to design with you and I'll still be fluttering by your blogs!

On to the challenge...this week's is open! Just be sure to include a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation. Click {HERE} to enter your project. For more inspiration from the rest of the team, please visit the links on my sidebar or on the FBW blog. 

Here is my card~

I colored this image weeks ago and finally got her on a card.  This is Lily from the Spring Flora Fairies from Carmen Medlin for SCACD. Since I colored her early, I was able to use lots of stickles :)  The paper is Bo Bunny Ambrosia, love these colors and I still have 1 or 2 more images to put on cards that match this paper. The sentiment is from Color Me Happy by My Creative Time. I didn't use it when I got it last year, but I've now used it on the last two cards I've made.

The layout is from this week's Techno Stamper's sketch~ love it and was so happy to play along again. It's been awhile!

Thanks for fluttering by today!

Paper Cutz Challenge #65

TGIF!!!

Today's PaperCutz Challenge is to make a card, layout or craft project for Breast Cancer Awareness using any colors you'd like.

Here is my take on the challenge~

The adorable ribbon bear is a freebie that I downloaded from Bugaboo Stamps earlier this week. I painted the ribbon with Tutu Pink paint from Creative Inspirations, IRL it sparkles so nicely but my camera didn't pick that up.

I used this week's Techno Stamper sketch~

Thinking of You

This was the first card I made today. It's bright and happy and makes me smile :)

I've been wanting to use this Techno Stamper's sketch since it was posted a few weeks ago...I knew it would be fun to put together.

Here is my take -


The flowers are from the MFT set Funky Flowers - first time inked, yay! The sentiment and butterflies are from one of my favorite Hero Arts sets - Thinking of You. The paper is scraps from a DCWV stack.

That is all from me tonight. I had high hopes of getting more done but after doing 4 loads of laundry and painting shelves for the scraproom, I have no energy left to craft tonight!

Have a great night and I hope to be back tomorrow night with a new card.
