Let's PARTY! IPC #254

 

Hi friends!

If you have or ever had an ORANGE CAT, 

you'd totally get this card's pun, LOL!

                      For this month's Newton's Nook Designs

                                 IPC challenge, there is a fun 

color palette and inspo photo:

                    I used the colors to create a fun birthday card

for a special someone who has a mischevious orange cat :)

I used:  Naughty Newton clear stamps

Naughty Newton die set

Basic Frames die set

Circle Frames die set

I mixed and matched several designer papers as well

to acheive a fun eclectic look:

 Springtime, Happy Easter, and Coffee Shop paper pads. 

Head over here to link up your card using NND products

Stash Busters: You ROCK!

 

Hi friends!

Today I have this week's Stash Busters cards to share!

This bi-weekly card group has a theme

and this week is:  Graduation/Celebration AND CASE a sketch.

So, I made a HUGE boo-boo this week!

I looked at the calendar and saw NEXT week's theme

and created cards as such :)

Thinking SUPER quick, I decided to CASE a card

from the very talented Crystal Komara!

I spotted this rainbow paw print card here:

I used the Whimsy Stamps kitty frame die

and a background of rainbow-y colors that I painted from 

leftover Easter egg dye.

I added a fun sentiment (hopefully celebratory!)

from the Bold Statements clear stamp set.

CCEE 1804 ~ Can't Imagine .....

Hello friends!

The CCEE Stampers have a new challenge this week :)

Liz has given us our last challenge for the month of January
and it's a fun one!
We are to create a card using our favorite card making technique ~
and for me, it's masking and/or paper piecing .... so why not both! ♥

When MFT released their Furever Friends card kit, I about fell out of my chair!
I love ALL things with puppies and just have. to. have. it.  LOL!
My sweet husband saw me oohing and awwwing over the DT cards 
and somehow found out the where/when/how and ordered it for me ~
and it was in my stocking Christmas morning ♥
Yes - he's a keeper!

AND, today it's getting a debut on my blog!
I created this card by stamping the puppy and kitten in the pet bed first,
then masking it off to stamp a puppy on one side, kitten on the other.
After coloring the entire card,
I restamped the little bed on designer paper and cut/glued it to the card.
Lastly, I stamped the matching sentiment and added some corner banners.

You, too, can play along with this week's challenge!
Simply link up your card to your blog/linky or a gallery and 
use the codeword CCEE1804 and we'll stop by to visit!

If you'd like to see what the rest of the DT has created,
you can see those cards here.

Thanks for your visit today!
Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
