Donut Worry!

Hey guys!

I hope you had an amazing weekend and are enjoying your Sunday!

Today I have a really simple card to share with you that I made for a couple of challenges.

The challenges are:

Paper Play Sketches #47

and

Cardz TV Crazy Crafters Anything Goes #6

Here is the card I created for the challenges:

Like I said, really simple lol! This was so easy! I made my A2 card base from some white cardstock and layered it with some papers from the Cream & Sugar 6x6 paper pad from Doodlebug. I followed the above sketch for the rest of the layers. The cute little donut was from the cut apart sheet in the paper pad, as was the sentiment. I popped up the greeting and donut with foam tape and added some Glossy White Nuvo Drops. Easy peasy but oh so adorable!! 

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation!

I really appreciate it!

I hope you have a great craft day!!

2. Seize The Birthday (no topping)

and

3. Cut It Up #116: Birthday Cards

Here is a look at the card I created:

I cut out that cute little cake from the Smiley Cards Cricut Cartridge and added it to a die cut circle. I stamped my greeting and colored in the "wish" to match the candles and to help tie in some of the yellow. I think it is super simple but super cute!! I love those fun little cricut cuts :)

Paper Play Sketches #7

Hi everyone! 

Today I am sharing the new sketch challenge that has started at

Paper Play Sketches.

This Week's Sketch:

My Design Team project based on the above sketch:

I love giving cards to my family as a surprise and for no occasion. I leave them where they can find them and hopefully it brings a smile to their face when they see it. I'm running a little low on cards for that in my stash so I thought I would make one with the above sketch. I love those little sheep in the Ewe Are The Best stamp set from My Favorite Things. I created my little scene and colored it in with my Copics. I added a few white highlights on some of the images & some faux stitching with a white gel pen. I added some shimmer to the heart with my clear wink of stella pen, tied some crochet thread around the frame & popped it up with some foam tape.

Paper Play Sketches #5

Hi everyone! 

Today I am sharing the new sketch challenge that has started at

Paper Play Sketches.

This Week's Sketch:

My Design Team project based on the above sketch:

I used the Blogging Buddies stamp set from Mama Elephant for the image on my card. The patterned papers are from Teresa Collins. I love the soft colors! I did not have any enamel dots that matched the soft mint colors in my patterned paper, so I used a circle punch and punched out some circles, put them on my card and added a bit of glossy accents to each one. I really like that they have the appearance of an enamel dot and they match perfectly!

When I saw the banners on the sketch, I immediately thought of birthday, so I made another birthday card for my stash lol!

Hi everyone! 

Today I am sharing the new sketch challenge that has started at

Paper Play Sketches.

This week's Sketch:

My Design Team project based on the above sketch:

I decided to make a birthday card to have on hand for my card stash with that cute little elephant from Wild Rose Studio. I colored her in with my Copics and stamped the balloons a second time and fussy cut them so that I could pop them up with some foam adhesive for added dimension. I matted my image layer onto a piece of turquoise cardstock and used some bright patterned papers from Doodlebug for the rest of my card. My greeting came from the Birthday Wishes stamp set from Pink & Main and I heat embossed it with some white embossing powder. I added a few sequins to finish off my card.

Paper Play Sketches #1

Hi everyone! 

Today I am sharing the new sketch challenge that has started at

Paper Play Sketches.

This week's Sketch:

My Design Team project based on the above sketch:

I colored that sweet little Sailor Girl from the Ahoy set by The Greeting Farm with my Copics and then used a circle die to cut her out. I also cut out another circle but in blue to adhere behind my stamped image. I picked out a few coordinating papers from the Ahoy There paper pad from Carta Bella and placed them onto my card, following the sketch, and then attached my circles. The circles hung over just a bit but I just trimmed off the edge once it was adhered to my card. I stamped my greeting and used a black pen to draw some sketch lines. I finished off my card with a few enamel dots and called it good :)
