For You...Happy Birthday

Good morning! I hope you've had a good week! Ours has been busy and full of germs but not too bad :-) I've made a last minute card for this months Make the Day Special sketch. I've used an older Mama Elephant stamp set and some funky office style papers from Doodlebug. I made the two panels slightly wonky and flicked some black ink over the card to give a sort of 'messy desk' look - in my head anyway! ;-) I've also used this weeks Colour Me... colour scheme and Seize the Birthday Anything Goes challenge. I hope you like it, thanks for looking and have a lovely Sunday! xx

Supplies;
Stamp - Mama Elephant 'Type It'
Papers - Doodlebug 'Take Note'
Sentiment - Winnie & Walter 'Big, Bold & Happy'
Ink - Distress Ink 'Black Soot' & Stampin' Up 'Real Red'
Cardstock - Stampin' Up 'Real Red' & 'Basic Black'
Dies - Nestabilities 'Circles'

Christmas Coffee Cup

Hi! And Happy New Year!! I hope you all had a lovely break! I'm back to share one of the Christmas cards I made before yet another challenge deadline passes ;-) This one was for my brother. We're chalk & cheese but share a love of Starbucks so I knew I wanted to use the 'Red Cup' somehow.
I've used the Freshly Made Sketches sketch and the Colour Me... colour scheme from Challenge #51. I'm also going to enter into this weeks Simon Says Stamp challenge of Anything Goes and Just Us Girls Winter challenge. I hope you like it!

Chalkboard Christmas cards

Hi! Back with another pair of Christmas cards, this time with a bit of a chalkboard look.


They're pretty similar and are both for this weeks Colour Me... challenge which is Real Red and a neutral, and also Just Us Girls chalkboard theme but following different sketches. This first one is using this weeks My Favourite Things sketch. The sentiment is stamped in Sparkling Snow embossing powder but for the life of me I couldn't get the glitter to show in the picture!



Then this second one is using this weeks Fusion sketch. The background was sponged with white ink, as were all the edges. I hope you like then, thanks for looking!




Supplies;
Sentiment - MFT 'Seasonal Sentiments'
Cardstock - Stampin' Up 'Real Red'
Papers - Echo Park 'Tis the Season'
Die - MFT 'Let it Snowflakes'
Embossing - WOW! 'Sparkling Snow'
Other - white ink & red gems
Stencil - Simon Says Stamp 'Falling Snow'
