Mojo Monday Birthday Card

It's a nice sunny day here, cold though, and I decided to join in with the Mojo Monday Challenge.

I used the pug face from Hot Diggity Dog stamp set and stamped with gold embossing powder.
The base is Choc Chip and the layer is Sahara Sand.  I stamped the cute little bone from Hot Diggity Dog with Crumb Cake ink.  I was going to stitch around my layer with cotton but decided to just stitch round with no cotton.  I did use white cotton to stitch round the sentiment tag.  It was hard to get a good photo of this card, maybe as the card stock is so dark.

Very pleased with this cute birthday card.

Global Design Card

I am with the Pinkies, which is Michelle Lasts Stampin Up team.  When I saw one of her lovely designs was featured with Global Designs  I thought I would join in.  I only received the Butterflies Thinlits last week so I felt I had to use them.  It also gave me a chance to have a go at a shaker card!

I used Whisper White card stock and the subtles DSP stack.  I decided to emboss with Decorative Dots and stamped the inside of my butterfly with the Butterfly Basics stamp set.  I used some sequins from my stash and finished off with the Hello sentiment from Greeting Thinlits.

It has a lovely fresh and clean feel.

Case this Sketch Birthday Card

Today I made a simple card for Case this Sketch challenge.  I used Blushing Bride and Mint Macaron card stock.  I decided it needed a bit of black and stamped the sentiment with white embossing powder.  The background was done with the Dots and Stripes stencil using Pink Pirouette ink.

Pleased with the wayt his turned out.

Friday Mashup Birthday Card

This was a lovely challenge, using stencils and Birthdays.  I have a great stencil with dots and I thought this would look great with ice-creams, (very retro).

I used Blushing bride, Mint Macaron , Very Vanilla and So Saffron card stock, with matching ink.

I stenciled the background with the Dots and Stripes Stencil usng the Mint Macaron ink.  The cute ice-creams are on the Sale a Bration stamp set Honeycomb Happiness and the sentiment is from Party with Cake stamp set.
