Cupcake Time

Hi everyone,

 

Back again with a mixture of the old and the new.

 

The current Idea Book & Catalogue will be replaced on 1 September with our new catalogue and you can get some of the items we are saying good bye to by clicking here to review the retired list.

 

So for this challenge I have mixed the old with the new – some DSP that is only available until 31 August with the new the Create a Cupcake stamp set that teams with the Cupcake Builder Punch.

 

The sketch layout is from Mary Jo’s website and her Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge # 187.

 

 

 

And this is my card:

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Create a Cupcake

Card: Real Red, Pacific Point, Whisper White
Ink: Pacific Point

Accessories:  Celebrations DSP, Cupcake Builder Punch, Mini Glue Dots,Paper Piercing Tool & Mat Pack, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

I love the bright colours in the DSP and the cute little cup cake.

 

Leave a comment let me know what you think.

 

Till next time…. Meg x

Birthday Wishes For You

Evening everyone – did you have a great weekend!

 

I did a bit of creating, some gardening, some shopping and had time for a coffee, so I cannot really complain :)

 

 

The card I have created below is based on Mojo Monday’s Sketch # 183 and the card also fits into the SU Only Challenge of Birthdays.

 

 

A copy of the sketch is here for you to see and you can visit Mojo Monday’s site if you click on the image.

 

If you have not visited the SU Only site before take a look and click here for the link.

 

 

 

I have taken my colour inspiration from the Celebration DSP.  This paper has some lovely bright colours: Pacific Point, Real Red as well as Bashful Blue and Pear Pizzazz.

 

I have used Real Red for the base of my card and the Flight of the Butterfly stamp set.

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Flight of the Butterfly, Vintage Labels (Retired)

Card: Real Red, Pacific Point, Bashful Blue, Whisper White
Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Real Red, Pacific Point

Accessories:  3/8” (1 cm) Taffeta Ribbon, Real Red Retired Ribbon, Mat Pack for Paper Piercing, Celebrations DSP, 1-3/4” (4.4 cm) Scallop Circle Extra-Large Punch, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

This is such a bright birthday card.  My niece’s birthday is this coming week and I think she will love this card.

 

Thanks for visiting once more, please come back soon…… Meg x

Let’s Celebrate

Hi everyone, it’s Friday night and the weekend is here  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

This past week has been a little crazy but that’s ok, these little things help keep you focused and grounded.

 

 

 

 

I have created a card for the Sketch Challenge at Frenzy Friday – the sketch number is SFF030411.  This is the sketch and you can visit Sketch Frenzy Friday’s site if you click here.

 

 

 

 

 

I have used the Party This Way stamp set and the co-ordinating DSP Celebrations.

 

The Celebrations DSP contains the lovely bright colours of Pacific Point, Real Read mixed with some milder tones of Pear Pizzazz and Bashful Blue.

 

I have create the card as close to the sketch as I can and I think it’s a very happy card to give someone for their birthday.

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Party This Way, On Your Birthday

Card: Real Red, Pacific Point, Whisper White
Ink: Pacific Point, Pear Pizzazz

Accessories:  1” (2.5 cm) Circle Medium Punch, Clip Assortment, 1/2” (1.3 cm) Pear Pizzazz Stitched Poly Ribbon, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

Unfortunately you may not be able to see clearly the basic rhinestones on the little traffic light which have caught the glare of the camera but they look good in real life!

 

I am happy with this little creation – what do you think?

 

Enjoy your weekend…… Meg x
