Graphic Greeting Birthdays - Taylored Expressions - TPE244

 

Happy Monday Ladies!

Today we have a Techniques Challenge over at The Pink Elephant.  The technique is "The Chalkboard Technique".  I love the whole chalkboard tend that is still going around!

Here is my card:

 

I used a sentiment stamp from Taylored Epressions called Graphic Greeting Birthdays.  I thought it was perfect for this challenge.

 

I stamped the sentiment with Whisper White Ink because I did not feel like embossing.  :)  I drew some stitch lines around the sentiment for a little more interest.

 

The paper pad I used is from MME called Cut & Paste.  I love how this card came together!  I am going to give it to my nephew for his birthday!

 

Pop over to the Pink Elephant Blog and see what the wonderful team has created!

Merlin Henry - Whiff of Joy

Hey there!  Happy Hump Day!  :)

I have a card for you today using Whiff of Joy's adorable Merlin Henry digi stamp.  This little guy is adorable!  I made this card for my co-worker who loves wizards.  :) 

 

I colored him with Prisma colored pencils.  I sprayed the image with glimmer mist.  It is very sparkly!  On top of that I added stickles to the smoke and the clock.

 

 

Here is a little close up of him.  You can see the stickles on smoke swirling around his wand.

 

The sentiment is one from Scrappy Moms.  It was kind of fitting.

 

You can see more wonderful inspiration at the Whiff of Joy blog!

Old Bag - Unity Stamps (TPE240)

 

Hey there!

This week we have a "Theme Challenge" for you over at the Pink Elephant Challenge blog.

 

The theme is "Birthday".  I created a quick card using a new stamp that I purchased from Unity Stamps, it's called "Old Bag" and I LOVE IT! 

 

 

I used my copics to color it up and I added Gold Ice Stickles all over it.  :)

 

Here is a close up.  Just a simple paper bag...  but the kicker is the sentiment!

 

I popped it up on an action wobble, so when you touch the bag it moves from side to side!

 

Come join us for this weeks fun Birthday challenge!
