Dottie's World Challenge-Child's Play

Hello and Happy Sunday! Another Sunday...another Dottie's World Challenge, ;o)

This week Lou wants us to make a card for a child. I decided to make a card for my daughter Emily for her 10th birthday..yes it was last month but things were so crazy I didn't get a chance to make her a card.

I used a Charmed Download of course-A Pixie Chick from the Pixie set #2-Rose Bud.
I snuck out of the house bright and early Saturday morning so I could make it to my LSS, they were having a huge 20% off your entire order today. Yummy! So I got the brand new Basic Grey-Nook and Pantry...love it! I used it on today's card and I must tell you it is some yummy!

Of course I also got the matching buttons-which I used on my card today as well...and some MORE Prima bling!

I was also able to get two new nestie sets that I used on today's card-Labels 8 and Shapeabilities-Flower Creations.

I love this new nestie label 8-it includes larger sizes-perfect for many of my people stamps.

The Flower Creations set is also awesome! I made these cool flowers with them today. I am just in LOVE with them!

Be sure to check out Dottie's World to see what all the other designer's came up with for this challenge! And have a relaxing day today...you deserve it!

Kraftin' Kimmie's Challenge #2

Hello and Happy Wednesday. :o) I'm so glad we are almost half way through the week-I am sooooo looking forward to the weekend. Not that we are doing anything special-but at least we can sleep in.

I made today's card with my brand new stamp Charlotte from Kraftin' Kimmie's new stamp collection. OMG! I just love this stamp. Miss Charlotte is so sweet holding her baby dolls and her HAIR is so much fun to color in!

Kimmie's challenge for this week is to use buttons.....HELLO? I LOVE adding buttons to my cards!

I colored in Miss Charlotte with my copics and added a bit of stickles here and there for interest. The paper is from BoBunny-Kitchen Spice-I promise to lay of this collection for a bit after today-I'm sure you all have seen enough of it. :o)

Anyways, I also used lots of Prima bling. I added CTMH sparkles to my scalloped border that I created using my SU! punch. I also used a Martha Stewart border punch and three different types of nesties. The buttons are BoBunny and the ribbon is CTMH.

I think that's pretty much it!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabby day!

You & Me-KKBC3

Hello, I'm still trying to get in all my Kraftin'Kimmie's Birthday Challenges....I'm like three challenges behind! I've had a bit of "teenager stress" in my life the last week and I think it has really affected my crafting mojo. lol.....:O)

Anyways, I'm happy with the way this card turned out. I love my Magnolia's and I love this new paper by Basic Grey so I knew it would work out today! I got this Edwin image from Kelly. Thanks Kelly! I just LOVE him...next magnolia order-I'm gettin him.  

Here are the details for today's card:

Patterned Paper: Basic Grey-Bittersweet

Cardstock:CTMH-Vineyard Berry

Buttons are from my LSS.

I used my nesties to make the scalloped rectangle

I made the tag and heart with my cricut

I used my Martha Stewart border punch also, I just love her border punches-they are so super cute and with the Michael's 40% off coupon they are so affordable. :O)

The sentiments are CTMH stamps-Soul Mates, stamped in CTMH cocoa ink

I colored Edwin in with my copics and I also used some twinkling h20's on Edwin's wings that I got from my friend Shelly.  You can't really see it in the picture but it's really shimmery. 

Thanks for looking & have a great weekend!
