Happy Birthday

Today is a fun challenge over at Meljen's Designs.  Today's theme is Happy Birthday because Melissa's birthday is this month.  Of course I had to use a kitty in my card because I think there is nothing better that holding a cute little kitty.  The image I used is called A Girl and Her Kitty.  The sentiment is from PTI.

Remember that you still have another week to take advantage of the sale over at Meljen's shop.  Who doesn't like a sale?

Twisted Tuesday Challenges

Time again for another challenge over at Twisted Tuesday Challenges.  Today's challenge is red, white and blue and the twist is to use stars.
The stamp set I used was Summer Friendship Jar Fillers from Papertrey Ink.  I just love this set.  I colored it with my copic markers and fussy cut around the stamp.

Check out what the rest of the design team did with the challenge this week.  Perfect challenge with the 4th of July right around the corner.

Make a Wish

Today I needed a quick birthday card to I went to my latest Two Paper Divas Stamp called "Pretty Posies".  The posies come in different sizes and I thought the medium size worked perfect for this card.  The sentiment is from "Got Cake" from Two Paper Divas.  This was a fun card to make  and will make the perfect birthday card.

Keep checking out Two Paper Divas because they have some great new stamp sets planned.

Have a great week.

Twisted Tuesday Challenge



Happy Tuesday!  It is time again for another Challenge at Twisted Tuesday Challenges.  The challenge today is  called “A Bunch of Spotted Animals”.   I immediately thought I wanted to used this adorable image from Meljen’s Designs called Noah's Loving Giraffes.  This covered both the challenge (Use 2 animals) and the twist which was to use spots or polka dots.  I used the Stampin Up polka dot embossing folder and just did a circle cut in the center so it makes it look like the giraffes are peeking out.  I used the Simon Says banner die along with the matching stamp. 
I had to take a picture of the inside to because the image is so adorable and I wanted you to see it.

Check out Meljen’s Designs because they are having a 50% off sale through July 4.  Now is the time to get some of their adorable images.

DT Day for Meljen's Designs

I am having so much fun being on the design team for Meljen's Digital Stamps.  If you haven't checked out Melissa's adorable images, you must go there.  They are so much fun to play with.

Each month I will have a Design Team Day and today is my day.  I decided to show that you can print the digital images on designer paper.  After printing it on the designer paper, I colored the image with my copic markers.  I love how the background paper shows through when you color it. 
 For my card I chose to use one of the new images from Meljen's Digital Stamps called Pair of Poppies.
 You will see that I actually printed the image on two different kinds of designer paper because I really wanted to show how it looks on different kinds of paper.
I used the Sizzix circle flip die to make this card.

So don't just print your images on white paper.  Try something a little different.  Have a great day and thanks for stopping by Meljen's Designs Challenge Blog.

Two Paper Divas

Today I am posting a picture of a card I made with one of the new sets from Two Paper Divas called Pretty Posies.  I decided to go with a clean and simple look.  I stamped the large flower image with Stampin Up Daffodil Delight, Baja Breeze and Poppy Parade.  I then stamped the smallest flower with Stampin Up Soft Suede and cut them out.  The leaves are olive green. 
I added a simple sentiment from Two Paper Divas called Everyday Sentiments.  I really needed a quick Thank You card and this really fit the bill.
