Birthday Bouquet for Featured Stamper

I love playing at Splitcoast Stampers in the Featured Stamper Challenge because there are so many inspirational cards each week....and since I've had no mojo lately, it's always easy to find a simple card to CASE when I need one.  For this card, I used the gorgeous Birthday Bouquet paper from We Are 3. 

I added beautiful branches from Design Bundles and a digital sentiment.

Hope to see you playing with the Featured Stamper someday...each challenge is posted on Sunday...no prizes, but plenty of fun - so what are you waiting for?

Eclips Users Group Game On Challenge

I have a great time playing in the Eclips Users challenges.  With my winnings from the last challenge, I purchased Desktop Cornhole Game from Simply Crafty SVGS.  I'll be making several of these for Valentine treats for the grands and neighbor kids.  For one grandson, I made a Zombie-themed set.  The background paper is We Are 3's Painted Strokes and the hand is digitally paper pieced using - get this!  Birthday Bouquet!  I don't think Bonnie, the designer, had that in mind when she created this collection!  LOL!

The adorable dinosaurs in the set for my other grandson are Watercolor Dinosaurs (Creative Fabrica).  I printed two different dinosaurs on top of the background they provided with a palm tree from the same set.  

Had a bit of a time deciding what I wanted to do for the other Valentine treats, so I decided just using traditional Valentine color schemes is my best shot.  

 

Paper Ala Mode

On this Paper Ala Mode Saturday, I'm here to share my design using Snowed-in Birds from our sponsor Sandra Caldwell.

The theme challenge is using patterned paper - and a die cut or chipboard.  My patterned paper comes from the Birthday Bouquet collection at We Are 3.  My shape is from the snowflakes in the Winter Gazebo file from SVG Cuts.  My chipboard is from Piccolo.  Here's a closeup of the Snowed-in Birds.

Using this same design, I made a packet of cards ready to abandon during my next trip to San Diego.
