Happy Brrrthday!

Happy New Year everyone!

So glad to have some time back to get into my crafty little world after the holidays. 

A few weeks back my friend had a birthday and her boyfriend got her a colorful new snowboard. So I wanted to make her a fun card so that she would remember her birthday on the mountain. 

I started with the Paper Dolls Teen Scene cartridge and cut out my friend and all the accessories at 5", then used the Peachy Keen Dolly Dumplins Face Assortment and colored it in with Copics.

I used the Spellbinders Label Nine to cut out the sentiment which is from the (discontinued?) Pink By Design Cowgirl Up set.

The inside sentiment is from Pink By Design's Snowflakes stamp set.

I will entering this card in the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge 13-1 Anything Goes challenge. 

It's the first of this years challenges over at Peachy Keen Stamps Blog. I can't wait to see what the challenges will be this year, so make sure to stop on by and join the fun too!

Having a Ball!!!

Hi everyone. Well I have finally gotten around to making a post. I was away camping enjoying what little summer we have had.

I love the outdoors and like to spend as much time as possible out there when I can.

The card that I made this time is one of my favorite places to be in the summer...the Beach. I used the Cricut Paper Dolls Teen Scene cartridge.

I cut the dolls, bathing suits and hair all at 5". Since I can not draw at all I used the Peachy Keen Dolly Dumplins Face Asst. stamp set for her and the Peachy Keen Groom Faces for him.

I cut some waves from Life's a Beach Cricut cartridge and took some Sookwang tape and some decorative sand that I had lying around to make the beach. The beach ball is from the Pink by Design Just Beachy stamp set, stamped, colored with Copics and cut out.

The  sentiment is from the Simply Everything stamp set by Pink by Design.

I added some American Crafts ribbon, a Recollections flip flop brad and some real baby shells that I got at a second hand store to finish the card.

For the inside of the card I used one of the left over waves, stamped the sun from Stampendous Summer Scene stamp set with Memento Dandelion Ink and then cut it out.

The inside sentiment is from the Pink by Design Summer Vacation stamp set.

Well I hope you all get to have a ball and spend many fun days at the beach.

I'm entering this card into the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #28 - Anything Goes.

You should head on over there and check out what everyone has been up to.
