Adventure Await--CMCC No64

March 27, 2015

It's Friday!  How did that happen?  The week got away from me!

I finally had a few minutes to play in my craft room!  YIPPEE!

My card today is for the Colour Me...! Challenge!  The colors this week are "Playful!"  These are my favorite shades, so I had to play along!  Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and a Neutral!  These colors call my name!  




For my card today, I am featuring a new stamp set by SugarPea Designs!  It is called "Wanderlust!"  I just love this little scooter!  I also used the "Poloroid Journal Card Die by SugarPea Designs for the frame.  I stamped the background of my shaker with a border stamp from the "Sparkle and Shine" set by Simon Says Stamp.  I stamped the border with Cherry Cobbler and Bermuda Bay.


The scooter was colored with Copic Markers and I embossed the white frame.  I found the Coastal Cabana DSP in a retired Stampin' Up paper pack called "Fresh Prints".  It worked perfectly with my card.  Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh are added in the shaker and on the front.

Happy, Hoppy Easter-PP237

March 22, 2015

Spring has finally arrived!!!!  So excited that the days will finally be warmer and sunny!  

It's Sunday and time for another challenge at The Paper Players!  This week the lovely, LeAnne is our hostess.  She has a fantastic sketch for us to play along with.  



I wanted to add another card to my Easter stash.  I am giving a shout out to the very talented, Ann Marie Hile for this fabulous idea.  She made a card similar to mine a few weeks ago.  I fell in love with her card with the "Peeps."  I searched and searched and found the stamp set from Close to My Heart.  I absolutely LOVE these little peeps!  I smile every time I look at them!



I stamped the Peeps on 3 different colors using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink.  I covered them with clear embossing powder and heat embossed them for shine. I add Glossy Accents on the eyes and noses and a little Wink of Stella was added on the outer edges.  It is difficult to see in the pictures, but adds a lot of shine.  



The sentiment is stamped in black and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  The grass was cut using the fringe scissors from Stampin' Up! .  All of the patterned papers are from Authentique Treasures paper pack.  Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh adds that extra little spark!



An envelope liner and another Peep was added inside to finish my card.

I am so glad you stopped by my blog.  Please leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.  I love to hear from you!
