Cupcake Craft Challenge # 64 - A Sketch

I created this card for the Cupcake Craft Challenge #64 - A sketch and the Color Throwdown Challenge. But it's kinda funny, I missed the date to get the entry in for Color Throwdown! I think I'll still link it up for grins. :)


I used all Stampin Up paper in rich razzleberry, bordering blue and elegant eggplant. I ran a piece of white cardstock through the cuttlebug and used a foam pad to brush on rich razzleberry ink. I distressed the edge of the bordering blue with a little of the same color and colored in the flower with razzleberry. I even found a flower by Making Memories that was about the same color! The stamp set is my sister in law's, Delight in Life by Stampin' Up. Check out her card too, HERE.

S2G Challenge #29 & Cupcake Craft #62

I decided to have a visit over at the Shirley's 2 Girls blog since someone I visit often is on the design team there, Justine! So I'm checking out this challenge and it looks pretty cool...then I check out the digi stamps and they are super cute! So, I had to get me some and do up a card for their sketch challenge shown here.
I'm also using this for the Cupcake Craft Challenge #62 which is to create a card using the theme "THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT". I think this kitty qualifies for that!
For this card I used some Daisy D's paper, Basic Grey paper, some Queen & Co brads and other misc embellies.
Stay tuned for a BLOG HOP that I will be participating in THIS Saturday! I would love it if you could come back to check out my creation, post some love & you might even be entered to win a PRIZE!! :)

Rubber Stamp Chat Oct & Cupcake Craft Week 60

I decided to redo my RSC for October because I forgot I have some Bombshell stamps! Since they are hosting it, I wanted to use them...plus if I win, I'll be entered in their October contest too! :) How cool is that. Plus it gave me a chance to practice my coloring. I tried something new since I don't have a lot of Copic's yet, I squished my stamp pad down to get some ink on the lid, then used my copic blender to pick up the color, then colored her in.

I used the colors shown, the green is Handsome Hunter, all by Stampin' Up. I just learned this technique in a Stampin' Up meet up group through Laura Thorpe. Thanks Laura!!
I also incorporated the Cupcake Craft Challenge Week 60 which was "Thanks a Bunch". Mahalo is a Hawaiian word meaning thanks, gratitude, admiration, praise, esteem, regards, respects...perfect for my card!
