Who doesn't love cupcakes?

Just a quick post today. I made this card for my nephew's birthday.  I used the big Hero Arts Zig Zag Cupcake stamp and the Number Pattern background stamp. The greeting is from the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Sentiments set. I had to use some of my glitter paper for the star because I'm addicted to glitter paper lately!  :)  I embossed the top of the cupcake to make it looked like frosting swirls.

Hope you're having a great weekend!

Chemistry

I made this card awhile ago and realized I had not shared it on the blog yet. This Lawn Fawn Science of Love set makes me smile. I made this card for my hubby.

Hope you're having a good weekend. We've been busy with lots of family activities so I'm just popping in quickly to say hi!!

Heart Parade

Have you seen the Heart Parade die from Simon Says Stamp?  I love this die! I made a couple cards using this die and the die cut inlay technique. Here is what I came up with.

I also used DCWV Glitter card stock for the hearts. I really like this paper because you get the awesome look of glitter without all the mess.  :)

I hope you're having a great week and thanks for stopping by!

ABNH Challenge #47 Color It In

It's been a long time since I've played along with A Blog Named Hero challenge so I thought I'd give it a shot. The challenge is: Color It In.

I created this card using one of my favorite Hero Arts (OWH) stamp sets called Missing You and also used a Paper Smooches set called Warm Hearts for the trees. I colored the bird and trees with Copics. I used glitter paper to create the wire that the bird is resting on. I also added glossy accents to the bird's beak and eyes, as well as to the heart on the tree.

Have you played along with the challenge yet? I hope so!
