Birthday Fairy

Ready for a new challenge over at Creatalicious Challenges?  Our theme as always is Anything Goes with an optional twist "Fairy".

While we don't have a sponsor for this challenge, we hope you still join us for fun!

This darling image is Twila Fairy by CC Designs.  I did purchase the digital version some time ago however it looks like digital images are no longer available.

I used my Silhouette Cameo to print and cut the image then I went to work coloring.  I added glossy accents to the flower crown and Nuvo White Blizzard glitter drops on the wings and Honey Gold glitter drops to the wand.  I found some glitter background paper that matched the dress perfectly.  The sentiment is from the Curly Greetings collection by Woodware Stamps. To finish it off I added a couple of hearts and gems for extra bling.

Happy Birthday

We have a fun, new template for you to play with at Kate Hadfield Designs!  Not to worry if you don't scrapbook, I had fun integrating the template into my card layout.

I created these cards using a variety of images from the following freebie  collection: Snapshots, Family Matters and Indian Summer.   

After coloring the images with Copic markers I used my Silhouette Cameo to print and cut the images.  I used washi tape to create the lines behind the layers with a variety of patterned and plain papers.

Animal Parade

Welcome to a new challenge over at Creatalicious Challenges!  Our theme for this challenge is, as always ATG and we've added an optional twist - Slimline.

Our fabulous sponsor for this challenge is Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. I love the whimsical images and they are so fun to work with, thank you Rachelle!

The image I used for my Slimline card is Animal Parade.  Now seriously, how can you  not be happy when you see animals on parade?!

I was trying to decide whether or not to make a New Baby card or Birthday Card so I went searching through my stamps to find what would work best.  I decided on a sentiment from the "A Little Everything" (D1420) by Close to My Heart. 

To make the card gender neutral I decided on the orange background papers from the Freestyle Collection by Teresa Collins.  I have had this paper for years in my stash and have vowed to start using my stash over purchasing new paper.  The slimline dies I used are a no-name brand and they came with a variety of layers, for this card I used three of those layers. The top right corner was looking pretty bare so I added some colorful buttons and bakers twine.

Our Design Team has created some adorable cards, I hope you have a chance to hop over and leave them some love! Enjoy your day!
