Hi everyone and Happy Sunday! Is everyone recovered from Thanksgiving and Black Friday shopping deals? :)
Well, today is another Sunday, the last Sunday of November, and the last Birthday Sundaes challenge before the Design Team takes a break for the Holidays!
The challenge this week is another easy one: A birthday card with a birthday sentiment AKA Anything Goes (as long as the front of the card is birthday related, of course! :)
Our challenge this week is sponsored by Tradefish Designs!
Unfortunately, I don't own any stamps from Tradefish Designs (I plan on changing that soon - they have some cute stamps!), so I had to make due with what I had on hand... Here's my card:
supplies: CS: all Bazzill except Neenah for Copic Coloring; DP: Jillibean Soup; stamp: Tobie & his Puppy (Some Odd Girl); sentiment stamp: SU!; stamping ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento); Cricut Cartridges: fence (cut at 1 1/2", Paper Doll Dress Up), trees (cut at 2 1/2", from April Showers), house (cut at 2 1/2", from April Showers), sun (cut at 1 1/2", from Pack Your Bags; cloud die cuts (PaperTrey Ink)
So, I was ambitious this week - I used my Cricut, my Copics AND I did another stair-step fold card! Whew, am I BEAT! *lol* Seriously though, I just LOVE creating scenic cards now and I'm also loving creating different fold cards AND you all know I love my Copics! I couldn't resist!
I'm finally finding my groove with my Cricut - I still need help with my Gypsy, though! - but it's been great with these scenic cards... Hopefully I'll be venturing into making scenic/Cricut layouts soon! And yay for using 3 cartridges again!
Hope you all get to join us with this week's challenge at Birthday Sundaes! Up for grabs is a stamp set from Tradefish Designs if you win!
Have a wonderful week and enjoy your Holiday Season! :)
