2 SISTERS ANYTHING GOES CHALLENGE #90

Good morning everyone, it is Saturday and time for some fun. Lots of creating to get to and another great challenge for you at 2 Sisters Challenge Blog, this week the challenge is Anything Goes. And the card that I made is a birthday card for a co-workers mothers. She loves flowers and I thought that this one would be perfect for her. This is the second year that I have done her birthday card.

I really loved howthis turned out. The image is from our wonderful sponsor Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps and is called Dandy flower.
The image was colored with copics Y04, Y08, Y38, YG06 and YG05. After coloring 2 images I then cut one out and popped it up with pop dots and  The background was colored in with Tim Holtz distress inks wild honey and evergreen bough (from the winter seasonal set). The card stock is from my Minds Eye and I have been hoarding because I do love these papersbut, the first layer is vellum from Making Memories. I really love this vellum, when I bought it I wasn't sure what I would do with it and now I find my self using it all the time. It came in about eight different colors and it makes a wonderful first layer I also used it on the inside of my card to give it a uniformed look. The bling is from my stash and I used the cloud corner chomper from crop-i-dile. The birthday stamp is from Michaels. Well, that is it for this card. So stop on by 2 Sisters and join us for this weeks challenge. Be sure to stop the other design team blogs (which can be reached from my sidebar) They would love to read your comments.

2 SISTERS SPOTS AND DOTS CHALLENGE #83

Good morning all, I am running just a little late this morning. I found it hard to get out of the bed . Wish I was still there. But, I have work to do. So lets get to it. Todays challenge at 2 Sisters Challenge Blog is 'SPOTS AND DOTS. And we would love for you to join us this week. I picked this image because I thought that it would look so good in wonderful spring colors. I am so ready for some nice sensible weather that makes since for this time of year.

My card today is a birthday card and the cute little image is from our sponsor MELJEN'S DESIGN
The image is called Tutu Sweet and she is colored with copics E11, E000, E13, E51, G21, R00, RV21,M RV81, RV83, YR02 and spica glitter pens peach, orange and pink. The background paper is vellum Making Memories and I love the sheer look it gives. The DP is My Minds Eye HOme collection. These are the scraps left from a project I did last week. I used the Spellbinders inverted scalloped circle and one o the fancy tags twice and then layered. The stars with the bling is from a pack of birthday embellishments that I just picked up from Target out of their clearance shelf. Cost 88 cents. The bling is part of the embellishment.

A SPECIAL BIRTHDAY CARD

Wow, I am back with another post. 2 in one day. This one is a card I made for a friend to give to a lady at her church. She had seen another one of my cards and kept asking my friend about them. It seems she really loved the one she saw and she wanted one for herself. So my friend is giving her this one for her birthday in a couple of weeks. The image is one from Tellen's Place Designs and just because I no longer design for Tellens, I still love the images and you will be seeing even more of them in the coming weeks. I love the DIVA images they are easy to work with and the women that I know love getting the cards I have made with them. There is a little diva in everyone of us.

I think that this card turned out even better than I could have imagined. The DP papers are from Making Memories and it is from their black and white pad 8x8. Which is one of the last few things that I bought at Tuesday Mornings before the tornado. The image as I said before is from Tellen's and it was colored with copics E09, E11, E13, E15, RV02, RV04, RV06, I used spica glitter pen pink of the scarf and shoes. The flowers are from 2 different sets by Prima and I love that they had swiss dots to match my papers. I put stickles on the flowers after layering 3 deep to give them shine and sparkle. The clear bling is from my stash. I used 2 stamps from a clear set on the front of the card and on the inside is two different stamps used. The sentiment stamp on the right is from Stampendous and the celebrating you stamp is from Michaels dollar bin. The black and pink cardstock is from Bazzill. I used Spellbinders Nestabilities labels 10. and ran it through my Cuttlebug swirls embossing folder. I also used one of the art deco embossing folders from Cuttlebug and the swiss dots folder. As you can tell, I love embossing. Well, that is it for this card and yes I do have a few challenges.
