pretty dress for BBTB weekly challenge

What an awesome job my fellow design team girls this week on the BBTB challenge ! we were asked to use the princess dress from the dreams come true cart, well i did not have this cart so my lovely friend and design team member Sharon ( grammas) sent me the beautiful floral cut which i believe the paper is basic grey ! I used the cuttlebug for the embossed happy birthday and also the scrolled corner. The lace edge is the Martha Stewart punch and the shoe from sizzex die . Thanks for taking the time to view and leaving a comment !! please check out all the other fantastic creations here.

A new home !

This week Regina asked the Bitten by the bug design team to use the house cut from the christmas cheer cart. I made my card shape from the storybook cart, the keys were cut from the indie cart. i just love this colour combination !! The other designers made some fab creations this week check them out here !!

enjoy

I made this for the weekly challenges over at hallmark scrapbooks !! this week it was my turn to pick a challenge and i came up with using the calling bird from the Joy of the season cart ! I used a tin foil baking tray for the background which i embossed and inked with alcohol inks ( came out really cool ) Thanks Okie !! The corner flourish and tag are from the storybook cart and the border is made with my threading water punch and cuttlebug border folder. I used white chalk ink and white pen to highlight ! I also pop dotted the bird on top of the shadow white bird and cutsmall pieces out of the feathers so the white would show through !! TFL !!!

may your wishes come true !! cps challenge

let it snow !!

I'm on a little christmas kick at the moment so i used my speaking of winter cart again for the tree and snowman ( isn't he cute ). after inking i pop dotted the trees and snowman then i used my snow writers to add all the snow and i just love this stuff !! i stamped the let it snow circle image and layered it for extra thickness and pop dotted that off the card. I then added lots of snowflakes again with the snow writer !!

winter wonderland 2sketches4you and daring card makers

This for Lauras sketch at the 2sketches 4you site and also this week on daring card makers there's a fabulous tutorial all about embossing so i was inspired to get out my cuttlebug !! I used my speaking of winter cart for the snowflake which i cut 3 times and glued together to make it like chipboard, i used Tim holtz inks and stickles to decorate the snowflake !! I also embossed the snowflake with the swiss dots folder and used the snowflake folder for the corner piece. wording is a rub on ! metal snowflake brads finish it off !!
