Sketchbook Saturday / Happy Birthday and other Stuff

Hi All.  Today is a crummy day outside.  We have now entered our spring rainy season, which lasts about 4 weeks.  I don't mind so much because come 4 weeks from now, everything is perfectly plush.  

 
Today's card was made for this week's Sketchbook Sunday challenge.  All the supplies except the rhinestones are from Stampin' Up!




Here is a card that was created by a very talented lady at my local scrapbooking store.  She held a class last week and I was unable to attend.  So, they were kind enough to throw a kit together for me.


This is what I did with it:





There are 3 more cards in my kit.  I will post once they are done.

Thanks for stopping by!

Gold Star

This is my entry for the Mojo Monday challlenge.  This has been a very busy week, with working 2 jobs, weight training, and writing a final exam, I have had very little time to relax and craft.  I was unable to come up with my own idea and cased this card from Teresa Kline/Paperie Blooms .  Now that I am done my course I have a little more free time. Until next time.

Summer Smooches

Today I am entering my card in two different challenges.  I always like to pick a color challenge with a sketch challenge. I chose the color combo from  Colour Q #130 and the sketch from  Just-Add-Ink . I love this new stamp set Summer Smooches, that will be available April 01-30.  It's super cute a quite versatile. I began my creation a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock.  The first layer is Certainly Celery and measures 4" x 5 1/4".  The second layer is an embossed piece of Whisper White cardstock and measures 3 3/4" x 5".  I stamped the tulips using Melon Mambo, and the other image using Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Daffodil delight. Here are the sketch and colors:

CASE Study Challenge #133 & Happy Birthday

For this weeks CASE study challenge, I used a variety of papers and embellishments.  Michaels was having a 30% off sale on many of their stickers, so a bought a pile and used some in this card.   I used many layers of paper with a variety of patterns along with die cuts & embellishments from Martha Stewart to Stampin' Up! and Creative Memories.
