Birthday Balloon

Made this card with two challenges in mind:
 Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes
 and
 Just Us Girls - Balloons

I am so in love with Tim Holtz's Bird Crazy and Crazy Things stamps. Hope to "dress up" some more birds soon.

Card Concept - Daisies

Such a pretty inspiration picture for the challenge at Card Concept. I was also inspired by this gorgeous card by Jennifer Rzasa. I really don't enjoy colouring or fussy cutting...so I'm trying to find ways of using line stamps without colouring them in or cutting them out. I think my card fits in the Clean and Graphic section this week. Never sure what my style is.

Less is More - Green and Gold

This week's challenge at Less is More is a colour challenge and it is Green and Gold.
I decided to go with a Christmas theme for this card.

Tag You're It #27

Love all the stenciling on the card for this week's Tag You're It challenge
I used the Tim Holtz Honeycomb stencil with embossing paste on the big tag and distress inks on the smaller tag.  Did a bit of stenciling, stamping and splattering for the background of the card.

PTI Blog Hop - July 2015

Here is this month's challenge:
Butterflies never go out of style!  Now is your chance to get out some of your favorite butterfly products as put them to work creating a beautiful piece of art inspired by this month's inspiration piece.
Here is what I came up with:

I used 'Life is Beautiful' die for the butterfly and cut it from Scarlet Jewel cardstock. I sponged it with distress paint using a Tim Holtz stencil. The sentiment is from 'Think Big Favorites #7'. The background paper is from Nellies Choice

CTD #351

Here is my card for this week's Colour Throwdown Challenge. Just got my flamingo die and I really wanted to play with it. I had some teeny scraps of  patterned paper that I thought would be appropriate for this week's colours. So here is what I came up with for this week's Colour Throwdown Challenge.
