Birthday's...you gotta love them, right? Actually I DO love birthday's....this is a card that I made especially for Darin's sister...she loves the color pink:
Don't know why I had such a hard time taking a pic of this one but bear with me. I used Echo Park's Be Mine for this card. The base is 6x6...The Happy Birthday sentiment is from a Teresa Collins stamp set. I topped off the card with PTI buttons, Kaisercraft bling and a ZVA flourish for the little Martha butterfly.
Here's another project for you...
I've been meaning to do a fun non-peep layout:
Here's a little back ground on this layout...if you know me...you know that I LOVE coffee...unfortunately I love it too much...on the weekends, it isn't unusual for me to drink um, 10 cups...okay, okay...more on that on another day....Last week I happened to pop into a Seattle's Best Coffee shop...the cup had the words....half full...printed on it...LOVE that....so a layout was born...
Do you notice that most of my layouts are sassafras? I just love their use of color and images...
I wanted to create little vignettes...there is lots of layering...the Just Ducky square is actually 2 different layers...the duck panel has been fussy cut and layered onto a floral piece. The monogram A has been fussy cut and I knew I wanted to add the Hero Arts silhouette image...
Guess what? I FOUND my Tim Holtz Rosette die...I had told some of my bloggie friends that I bought the Rosette die and promptly put it somewhere 'really special'...well, over the weekend, I was digging around in my Die box and BAM...there it was...right where it was suppose to be?!!!! You'll be seeing these puppies...alot...good grief, that makes rosettes soooo easy! The star paper and the green bloom are Sassafras..I layered a smidge of pale yellow wool Impress felt inbetween those 2 layers...
Do you see it? I did random green stitching on some of the 'rays'...perhaps if you squint, you might see it:) I've been loving that vintage green thread {green IS my favorite color}...
I knew that when I saw this sketch by The Studio Challenge...I had to play along:
The little challenge that went along with the sketch was to incorporate a handmade embellie...that's my Rosette...that counts, doesn't it? I did have to fold it up myself:)
