Die Cut Challenge at Pieces of Ali n' Me: Birthdays

This weeks die cut challenge over at Pieces of Ali n' Me is "Birthdays". For my card, I used pp from Recollections, the monkeys. I love this pp. It's fun and cute at the same time. I added a piece of crimper paper i got from Target. The dies I used were both from Cuttlebug. The first one is an alphabet die (forgot what its called, threw away the box) and the second one is a birthday set. The 'happy birthday' letters are from the alphabet set and the party hat with the twine is from the birthday set. I added a yellow button and colored the letters with gold lame smooch. I distress the card with distress ink.



I'm entering this card for:

icopic Translucent coloring challenge

This card was made for a swap I'm on from SCS. I'm entering it for icopic's Translucent coloring challenge. I bought this stamp from a garage sale last year and it's my first time using it. I wasn't too sure how to color the image so I looked at the image that came with the stamp as my guide. I like to keep my cards simple just in case I want to add something later but in this case I like it just the way it is. I was looking for a sentiment but could not find one.

PaperCup Cakes Challenge: Easel Card

Die Cut Challenge at Pieces of Ali n Me: Trees

Hi,

I don't know what's going on with blogger, but man, it hasn't been letting me post any of my cards. I have no idea what's going on. Hopefully it won't last long. On to this weeks creations. This was supposed to be posted on Friday but somehow I could only post it today.

This weeks die cut challenge at Pieces of Ali n' Me is 'Trees'. Well, for this challenge, I used two pieces of die cut trees, a car, and a MN shape from K & Co.'s 50 states line. I saw a picture of my boyfriend (from like waaaaaaay back then) and thought it was a great picture to go with the die cuts. The picture shows a bridge where you could walk across and boy I must say it was SCAAAAAAAARY!!! I did not cross that dang bridge, it was sooooo wiggly, like it was going to break.

Anyhoo, the stamp set I used is from CTMH. I forgot what the set is called.
