May Choose your Challenge with FBD

Good Morning!

It's time for another CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE

with Fresh Brewed Designs.

This will be our LAST Choose your Challenge.

Next month we will go into biweekly challenges and 

will have even MORE freshly brewed fun to share with you!

OK, on to my card.

I created this card using both the sketch and photo inspiration. 

{Bird's Nest Digital Stamp}

This card was a lot of fun to create.

The image was colored using prismacolor markers. 

The designer papers are SUPER OLD from my stash..

I have no idea what they are, I just know I love them and have been hoarding them.

The lace trim was a gift from my mom, the pretty butterfly was from my grandmother, 

the paper rose was also being hoarded from a gift I received from my sweet friend Rhonda, 

and the gorgeous Shabby Pink Frantage embossing enamel was from my dear friend Sheryl. 

The DT has really gone above and beyond this month!

Good morning!

It is time for a Fresh Brewed Designs Caffeine Crazy Challenge!

What is that you ask?

It is a 24 hour challenge we host every 5th Saturday of the month. 

This month we are wanting to see some FBD GLITTERY CREATIONS!

I created this card in hopes to inspire you to get all your messy glitter out

and just have fun!

 Skinny Minnie's Coffee Break Rubber Stamp

I used stickles to add sparkle ALL OVER this fun and simple card. 

*cotton candy, fruit punch, and green*

on the bird

*stardust and eucalyptus*

I kept this layout pretty clean and simple. The paper was actually a piece with a double image just as you see here. I cut the paper in half and then removed the inside of the red square to create the frame. 

The pieces I cut from the middle became shudders. A little scoring, sanding, gluing and glittering and voila!

Here she is. A very sweet and simple feel good card!

This amazing paper was gifted to me by Rhonda and the little wooden bird

was tucked inside of a birthday card from Vanessa.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Be sure to stop in and check out our 24 hour challenge

I chose to use the NEW RUBBER STAMP

LOVE BIRD OWLS 

for both of my projects today:

 For this card I used scraps and hoarded paper pieces. The bg shimmery paper has been hoarded for a few years now. I have already forgotten who has sent it to me - but I have treasured it and was so happy to finally use it. The gingham paper is from a 6x6 stack called Kitchy Kitchen. the little clouds are by Papertrey Inc. The sentiment was printed using word. They were colored using prismacolor and bic markers.

Next up is another fun card using these little Love Birds

the bg paper is by American Craft - I do- Dahlias

THe image was colored using prismacolor markers. The ribbon is from my stash - again- YEARS old. The gray cardstock is by the paper company. I used xmas red stickles for the little heart and  I used glue dots and the fun flock transfer papers for the red dots. This card was created using the sketch at i{heart}2stamp


You can WIN some of the felt /  flocking paper just by hopping and commenting! What are you waiting for? Get started now!!!

Thank you for stopping by today. 

I hope you have a very lovely and blessed Monday.

Joyful

I am so sorry!!! I had today's post ready and actually combined my Jesus Is The Reason project to also go with the FBChallenge this week. Well... I got my days mixed up and the hop is actually tomorrow!!! So I do hope you will come back for that. A few blogs will be giving away candy, mine included. We are not making this hop ABOUT the prizes though, but to focus on the love of our savior Jesus Christ. The hop starts bright and early at 9AM EST so you have plenty of time to get the kids out the door to school and brew your coffee and get ready for lots of love filled posts and fellowship blog hop style :).


This card was created using the current APRIL MONTH LONG PRICE CHALLENGE's challenge which is FLOWERS!!! I am quoting our sweet DT member, Kelly, in saying "April showers bring FBD Flowers" :D I love that :)!!!
The DT have lots of beautiful cards to share with you ... and we have a PRIZE up for grabs BUT I'M NOT TELLING WHAT IT IS:) You will have to stop by the Freshly Brewed Challenges blog to see it :D

I also used the 3D challenge at PCP for this card. This challenge is being hosted by Lyn. It is a Birdhouse Diorama... and it was so much fun to create!!! She gave us very simple and easy guidelines to follow to make this darling little card.


I do hope you will get to stop by and play along with us at FBC this month and that you will stop by for tomorrows Jesus is the Reason Easter Blog Hop.
