Life in Color - Bugaboo

Hello, it's that time again.  A new BugaBoo Crafty Challenge starts today over at the CraftingCircle.

The BugaBoo Crafty Challenges runs from the 15th of each

month through the 14th of the next month.  It is a challenge to use

exclusively Bugaboo images, so head on over and color up a

Bugaboo to join in the fun. 

So for this month I chose to use an image called 

Life in Color.

I created the background using Distress Oxide inks in the colors,

Wilted Violet, Broken China and Cracked Pistachio.  I colored the

image first using the same colors/inks but it was too blah so I went

over them with Sakura Gel pens so now they are all glittery.

I die cut the happy birthday flourish using a 

Wild Rose Studio die. 

That's it!  Hope you like my card and can join in over

at the Bugaboo Crafty Challenge. 

Daisy Birthday

Hello everyone, with Spring just around the corner I have

a very Spring lie birthday card to share.

The background is single sheet paper that I have had for years.

I had just received the Wild Rose Studio birthday branch dies so I cut it from 

bright yellow paper and added a few pearls in the flowers on the branch.

I also added a strip of Washi tape across the top of the card.  The 

daisy flowers along the bottom and side are Martha Stewart stickers. 

And that's it a pretty simple care but bright and cheery.

I will be entering this card in the following challenges
Challenge Up Your Life - Die Cuts
Just Us Girls - Floral
Crafty Friends Challenge - Flowers
Hiding in my Craftroom - Spring Colors
