Challenge #32 Sweet Sparkles

Today's card was inspired by the inspiration photo over at the ribbon reel challenge blogspot. 




I mounted lined paper on a piece of Domestic Goddess Designer patterned paper, and stamped a French inspired image on the left upper corner in 'Bashful Blue'.  I then adhered a piece of Brown polka dot paper across the bottom of the panels and machine stitched around the edges with Brown thread.  I punched a floral border with Pink checker patterned paper and layered it down on the right side of the panel.  White organza ribbon is wrapped around the middle with a bow tied and a Pink button. 'From the Heart' is stamped in Brown ink,  punched out with an Oval scalloped punch and adhered with foam adhesive.  A piece of Green patterned paper was die cut as well as a heart from upcycled paper, and placed on the lower left side of the panel.  Finally, butterflies were added with sparkling Yellow rhinestones.

Thank you for stopping by!

Today's card is inspired by two challenges, Create with Connie & Mary & Hand Stamped Sentiments .  I began on a piece of 3 x 6 Pool Party cardstock.  I really love this tone of blue.  The first layer is Pink Pirouette that has been run through my big shot, using the polka dot embossing folder.  I cut a banner using a piece of Regal Rose patterned paper then stamped it.  I also used some pretty designer paper, cut it into a banner, then added two clear rhinestones.  The center banner was stamped on Whisper White using Basic Grey ink.  I finished this card off with some gorgeous ruffled Pool Party ribbon (gotta get more of this, its amazing), a punched flower with a Rose colored button. Thank you for stopping by!  Alyson

This is a set that we will be making at my 'It's Time for Spring' card class.  I chose two challenges for my creation.  The color combo from CR84FN Color Challenge and the sketch from Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge . I began my creation on some Whisper White cardstock, then stamped these butterflies using my markers in Only Orange, Pretty in Pink and Bashful Blue.  You can hardly see in the photo, but I scorded 10 lines at the bottom and added some glitter. Here are the challenges: Please stop by again soon. Alyson

Colour Q Challenge ~150~

This next one was made by my crafter in training: way to go Mads!! Begin on some White cardstock.  Adhere a textured White mat onto the base.  To this I added textured Lucky Limeade and Poppy Parade.  Die cut flowers of your choice in Poppy Parade, followed by some punched out Daffodil Delight butterflies.  For the finishing touches add a coordinating button and sentiment.   Thank you for stopping by!   Alyson
