World Card Making Day

Hello Everyone! I know I'm late with posting my card for today but it has been a super busy day!! With all the craziness going on, I managed to slip away and do some card making :) I wanted to make more but I wasn't able to...I know I will get the chance, hopefully tomorrow! I used the Shabby Chic Treasures paperline. The stamps I used were Autumn Leaves License Plate. I did some fussy cutting on the flower and leaves. I also used ribbon, lace, and Recollections pearls from my stash. Thanks for the visit!!

Their challenge is to use "Pretty Party" as the theme, include the colors pink and green, and flowers!

PDCC #148...My first Tag!

Happy Tuesday! Just a quick share of my very first tag. I decided to play along with The Play Date Cafe Challenge this week. They have a new color challenge every thursday. This was a bit of a challenge{or got my creative juices flowing} for me because I have never used these colors together before. I had no paperline to match the colors for this challenge, therefore I had to makeup my own colors. I only used Folkart Deep Ocean Blue acrylic paint, Craft Smart Coral and Black acrylic paint, and some smokey grey chalk ink from Michaels' dollar bin to color everything with. Overall I had fun getting messy and I think it turned really nice!!

 

Peach...Navy Blue...Stone

 

Products: recollections leaves, flowers, handmade lollipop flower, lace, chinese braid trim, music stamp,Bazzil cardstock, pearl trim, studio g stamp, and ribbon.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Hi bloggers! I know I have been MIA for quite some time now. These last couple of days have been super duper busy. We have been doing a lot of traveling...from celebrating our 3rd year of marriage to graduations. I have been creating but I haven't had the time to post anything. Hopefully everthing will be back to normal next week...Today is my birthday and I can't wait to get this day started :)
