Today is a dear friend’s b’day and I wanted a special card for her. I used Sweet Sunday sketch 222.

This card took some time but I loved how it came out. I used MFT blueprint 15, i love this set. I used it for the main panel and for the yellow strip. I cut a circle with circle stax and then sponged a scene with distress inks, sweet n’sassy stamps and used MFT inks too. I cut a lily, colored it with copics and then added a rad after dry embossing it. I added some pearls, tons of glossy accents to the lily. Lots of lquid pearls, yes, i did go a little extra crazy, it started with having to cover a black spot caused after stamping the sentiment and then went on. I love this sentiment stamp. I added stickles to the birds, there rae the tiny ones from Technique Tuesday.

here is the inside, I forgot and took the picture later and that is why you see some writing in there.

Butterflies are her favorite and so this works. I added liquid pearls to the border. I am adding it to Word Art Wednesday- anything goes: Addicted to stamps- Outdoor and Just add ink– I used the cool combo of green, yellow and pink.

Thank you for visiting and for your sweet comments.

I made this using MFT sketch 168.

I love the grout gray color, and I used this color combo for sketch 167 and love the look, so I used it again. this time I used textile background and for the hexagons, I did not fill it all. I added a vellum, circle from Circle stax 1 and 2. An hibiscus leaf and perrenial flower. I added some photo coners. The sentiment is on Washi tape die and added the SD border and doodle. Some sequins were added, a brad to the center of the flower and stickles for the shine. All dies, inks and stamps are from MFT.

Here is the inside

I am also entering this in Simon Says Stamp- Glitter it and That craft place- flowers and Mother’s Day.

This is a long post. There are nine cards in all. These are all for the Love Fest challenge at Splitcoast stampers. I was on a card making frenzy and so enjoyed it.

This is for Puppy Love– card with a warm critter

I sponged watercolor paper with distress inks and then stamped with Versafine Ink, I used a ribbon and twine for the thread of affection. The main panel was cut with MFT postage die. I added brad and a wooden button for the final touch.

I am also adding it in Really Reasonable Ribbon- Show me the green

The inside is simple

This is for Lovey Dovey Spring- by Stamping Bella

The main panel is another diecut from MFT. The image is from Fred She Said- Doodled Floral Image. I love their images. I colored it with copics and paper pieced and colored the yellow flower and the leaves. I added white gel pen for effect. I love the sequins paper peeking through the lace. The saying is from MFT Fabulous sayings.

I am adding this to Great Impressions- Spring Celebrations and Simply Create Too- Shop in your stash– all the items used are from my stash.

The inside

This is for Doodle Do- Taylored Expressions

This card was heavily influenced by Jennifer McGuire. I love her videos and ideas. I added a doodled border and colored it with copics. I love the feathers and sentiment from MFT. I added some buttons for texture. When I embossed my feathers a spot did not have embossed powder on it, I took a brush and added embossing ink and then added the powder to even it out.

I am adding it to Challenge 4 everybody- Anything goes– this is a 5.5×5.5 card.

The inside

This is for the Inspiration Challenge- By Cat’s Pajamas, love the birdhouse and the iron gates.

I used lots of MFT diecuts. papers are from different paper pads and scrap. the corners looked like the gates, I added pearls to the branch and house.

I am adding this to Simon Says Stamp- Anything goes with pearls

The inside

This is for the Color Challenge-Sweet n’Sassy. Colors were white, red, pink and brown with additional ingredient of Love.

I had this lovely out of print paper that had browns and pinks and I thought it was perfect. I added MFT die and stamp. Love this saying with this heart. Added some sequins to balance the card.

I am adding it to Challenges 4 everybody- anything goes

The inside

This is for Let’s Score- Scor Pal

It is very hard to capture the score lines on a picture, they are above and below the sentiment. This is by far my favorite embossing folder. Then I added the MFT -Fabulous sayings(this is an awesome stamp set) so many ways to dress up a statement. Love it. I added a Pretty Posey die colored with alcohol inks on glossy accent paper. I added a pearl and a couple rose leaves.

I am adding this to Jo’s Scrap Shack- Florals

Here is the inside

Scor lines are added above and below the yellow paper. and a little flower.

This is for Die Cut Crazy- Simon Says Stamp. I was amazed how fast this was done once I thought of what to do. I

I diecut some LJD butterflies and Fancy butterfly by MPD- both from MFT. Is tamped the big dots on the butterfly underneath the fancy butterfly. is tamped corresponding inks on the other butterflies, all with MFT inks. I added colored pearls, colored the red ones with R28 and was done.

I am adding this to Fashionable Stamping Challenge- Anything goes

Here is the inside

I choose Classy and Elegant for the challenge by Paper Smooches.

I stenciled a rose using MFT stencil and MFT inks-Olive, Jelly bean green. RazzleBerry and Lemon drop ink, Then I added a ribbon. This ribbon was given to me by my secret admirer(sshhh, don’t tell anyone it is my 8 year old daughter). She finds little things to give me wraps it up and writes- for Mommy from your secret admirer. It is adorable. I added a little MFT sentiment.

I am adding it to CAS on Sunday- color me Pretty; and Addicted to Stamps and More- CAS

I forgot to do an inside, will work on it.

Here is my last card for the day

Lots of layers- Paper Perfect Crafting

I distressed all the layers to add a layered look and make it more distinct. The main panel I die cut and colored the die cuts with distress markers and water. The background is peacock feathers and tumbled glass. The sentiment is from Verve.

I am adding this to Crafting from the heart- use die cuts.

Here is the inside

I cut the stems from the flower so I could stick the brad. I am enjoying seeing people use glitter and so used scor tape to add fine glitter from Stampendous.

I will hopefully have a card for this month of October every day. My last one for HYCCT challenges.

I am playing along with Hope You can Cling to Challenges at Splitcoaststampers. It is a wonderful cause, and brings cheer and hope to many battling cancer. These cards will be sent to Houston,UT MD Anderson Cancer Center. You can play along too. This challenge was I can’t Believe it is over( exactly my sentiments)- We had to use black and white with pop of color, I choose Blue as my color(Team Skyler)

I used Fred she said stencil leaves image in the background. I used the teacup pansies- which are precolored. Since the leaves were bright green and I wanted it to be black, I added copics -C7,5,3 and 1. I added the middle flower in three layers to add dimension and the bud. I colored the flowers with salty ocean distress ink. At the bottom I have the double dot die and I added a gem in each center. I added two brads on the top and the sentiment on a fishtail flag stax from MFT. I also added glossy accents to the flowers and rim of the tea cup.

here is a simple inside
