Sunflower Friends

Hello my crafty friends!

It's Wednesday...wooohooo that means I get to share a card with you for

 

This week I used the Bees Knees KD Kit. There is sooooo many fabulous digi's, sentiments and digi papers in this kit. It's a definite must have- especially with Spring just around the corner!

I used the sweet sunflower/bee grey & yellow honeycomb paper which I layered with a natural net ribbon.  The CS is from American Crafts and Recollections.

I printed off 4 layers and used stickles (love how it curled the edges of my petals when wet) on the top layer and microbeads in the center. I just cut an extra center and put it face down on Sookwang tape and peeled off the backing and cover it with the beads. The texture was perfect with the beads...but can I just say how they end up everywhere!! They are fast lil' guys!! ;o)

 

Here's the inside of my card with a Hero Arts sentiment as it was for a special friend, which I embossed in grey EP from Recollections!

I'm happy to say my friend loved it!

Happy Craftin' my friends, 

~hugs~

A Treat of a Thank You!

Happy Tuesday everyone! 

We are having some strange weather for B.C. this week!! Actually got snow...we never get snow in Victoria...I guess we are spoiled so the whole city gets chaotic when we do get hit with the white stuff. ;o)

Here's our {Pin}sperational Pic for this week's challenge at {Pin}sperational Challenges.

Our amazing sponsors this week are:

Prize:4 Digi's

Prize: 3 Digi's

Prize: 5 Digi's

Since our weekend was blinded with snow...our girl movie night was in jeopardy of not happening. So I thought a Treat Bag was a fantastic way to thank everyone for trekking through the snow to keep our girls night!

I used CU Cupid 4 from Scrapper's Delights. 

The CS is Foil CS from American Crafts and cut using labels twenty-five from Spellbinders.  The leaves are a Memory Box Die, while the flowers and bling trim are from Recollections.  Tag is from a Marvy Punch. Twine is from American Crafts.

I colored the sweet image with SN Markers. 

Here's a closer look at the flower and trim.

The gals loved their bags almost as much as the treats in them!

Be sure to check out my teamies creations- they are Fabulous!

Sweet!!!

Happy Sunday everyone!

I'm here to show you a card I made to play along with the 

Art by Mi Ran Facebook Challenge.

The challenge was to "Make it Girly" using "Lollipop Leslie".

Here's my card:

I went with one of my favorite color combo's- grey and pink. Just love the softness of them together. 

DP & CS is from Recollections. Flowers, feather and pearls are from my stash. The doily die is from Sizzix.

I used a cute little chipboard ticket that says "sweet" on it. Which is why I used the blue feather to tie it in together, plus it was hard to find a grey or the right shade of pink feather. hehehehe.

I colored the sweet "Lollipop Leslie" with SN markers. Used glossy accents on the lollipop- just didn't show up well in the picture. Here's a closer look:

I'd like to enter it in the following challenges:
