Creative Inspiration Challenge













This is the 1stproper challenge I have entered.
And this is also the 1st challenge for the New http://creativeinspirationschallenge.blogspot.com/ Blog.

I am not sure if I am supposed to explain what I used on my project. But I will do so anyways .

The theme is use something black , anything ,but black must be on the card someplace.

So I used black card stock . I normaly only use black cardstock for halloween cards, so this was weird for me. But I think the end result is really pretty !
The papers I used are some from a digital scrap kit I got. I dont remeber where from.
The vellum is from PaperMania .
I used pink ribbon , and I punched the flowers with a giga punch I have and then put pink brads in the center.

The Image is from The Greeting Farm, It is a digital Anya image . And she is very very pretty !
I used Sakura Glaze and Stardust pens on her. I also used Whisper Strokes Markers for the bright vivid colours.

Thanks for Looking :)

Valentines Card


This is the card I am giveing
my husband on Valentines Day.

I used digital paper that I printed off. I dont remeber where I got them from. I download a lot of kits for digital scrapbooking. The good thing about these types of papers, is you can resize them !!And print them again and again and again LOL


I also used pink peach ribbon ,Sakura Glaze pens, and red glitter.

I used a Cuttlebug Embossing folder on the bottom half of the card .

And the stamp is a Pink Poison "Anya" Stamp.
She is so pretty .I coloured her in with Whisper Strokes markers. I did not make them water colour. I wanted her outfit to be bright . I did change it afterwards to fit my card. I cut away the halo.

And my tag , well I dont have many stamps with words on them . So I found a font I liked and printed off my saying.
Thanks for Looking.

Just For You


This is a Just For You card I
made for a friend of mine.

This Fairy is 3-d, it is hard to tell
from the picture,unless you look at her up close.
She is not a stamp. It's an image
from a fairy artist named
Jasmine Becket-Griffith.
She does do some 3-d decoupage .
But this image I printed off 4 times
and cut out what I wanted to
make the 3-d effect.


I used Sakura Glaze and Stardust pens &Lots of Red Glitter :)
The tag is from some left over grey
and black paper I
printed off for another project.

I also used grey coloured pencils
to pop the limbs out from the background.

Thanks for Looking :)

She stamped the Magnolia stamp herself, and she cut it out and coloured it in herself. She picked the paper from my scrapbox, and she picked red cardstock.

Baby Doll Dress Cards




This set of cards I made with a template I found online. I really like it....the apron of the dress lifts up, to reveal your message :)

I used brads, ribbon, buttons , and some star flower sticky gems.

I dont remeber where I found the papers from.....but they were from an online blog or site to download for scrapbooking.....so I took a piece of cardstock that had a pretty print on one side.....and then printed the paper on the other side.....so when it is all cut out and fixed....you have the 2 patterns .
But now they have papers that are double
sided ...which are great for this project !!!
The baby doll dress is mounted onto a piece of cardstock
..you can not open this card up....hence the apron effect :)

Thanks for looking :)

Just For You Cards




This is a set of Just For You cards I made . I love the images. I dont remeber the artist :( But they are really pretty.
