Blue Birthday

Happy Tuesday! Last night during Monday Night Football I took advantage of all the little ones hanging out with daddy. I was very productive and was able to make 3 cards I absolutely loved.

This first one is using the Altenew Persian Motifs. This card was the most time consuming one, as I colored with alcohol markers. Then heat embossed the "happy birthday" sentiment from PaperWing Productions in Pewter from American Crafts.

I am entering this card into Altenew december challenge and Paperwing Productions challenge. 

Thanks for stopping by!

BIG holiday wishes

Happy Wednesday! Half the week is gone and I get to play on a few challenges today. I love this time of year, decorating, eating, baking, eating, caroling, eating. :)

Today I made a holiday card using Simon Says December 2013 Stamp set. Paper is from Papertrey Ink, with patterned paper from DCWV.

With it being the holiday season, I get to play along on a few challenges.

First up, its Craftspot, my first time playing here! Their challenge is to make the sentiment the focal point.

Naughty OR nice?

Happy Sunday! I am sneaking from Sunday night football to play along in a few challenges this evening. Eyelet Outlet and Newton's nook designs have a fun challenge and I combined them.

I am using Eyelet Outlet pinterest color combo

and Newton's Design 

and here is my take on it:

The enamel dots are from Eyelet Outlet, and the stamp set is Newton's Curious Christmas.
