Happy 3rd Birthday Niece!

TGIF!!

 

Another great-niece of mine (she and her cousin were born just 6 days apart!), is turning 3 very soon, and I incorporated 2 different challenges for inspiration...

 

The first is a sketch challenge from Tuesday Morning Sketches #369, and the other is from the 

CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #156 to "use dimension & bling".

 

Both of my nieces are just darlings, and I enjoy spending time with them.

 

Hope you have a great weekend,

thanks for hopping by!

Fusion 30th Birthday Nephew

Hey there!

 

I needed some inspiration for my nephew's 30th birthday, and found it over at Fusion Card Challenge.

 

I decided to "fuse" both the sketch and colors together, and this is what I came up with.

 

I can't believe my nephew will be 30 soon, 

my the time does fly by quickly!

Celebrate Father-In-Law

Happy Friday!

Today's card was inspired by the sketch challenge over at 

Splitcoaststampers SC609, and the color palette from the

 Stampin' Royalty's color challenge #345 

to use Delightful Dijon, Always Artichoke and Cherry Cobbler.

  (I substituted using More Mustard, Sage Shadow & Ruby Red). 

I needed a card for my father-in-law's upcoming birthday and this sketch and color combo worked out perfectly!

Have a great weekend, thanks for stopping by!

Celebrate Best of Birthdays

Hey there!

 

I'm in the process of creating some cards for my sister's stash, and this one was fun because I was able to color...coloring isn't just for kids anymore!

 

I started with Kraft paper, tucked in a bit of blue using the Swirls embossing folder, then added that image after coloring with Prisma watercolor pencils and punching it out.

 

I think the added twine and button really finish it off.

 

Thanks for stopping by today!
