Like a Princess

Here are 2 last creations that I made for WCMD. I made the top one for Thanh's think pink challenge. I used 2 cardboard die cuts I've been hording for a while along with some fabric flowers and OBP crown, five petal flower and owl.

I had a lot of fun with the ATC. I used the stamps and stamps (ha!) from my OBP Vintage Ladies Limited Edition Kit. I paper pieced using lots of scrap papers and added OBP Strut Your Stuff sentiment. I finished her off with a little sparkle on the flowers in her hair and on her earrings via Stickles.

Dog Pops

Every year for my niece's birthday I make a different variation of Krispie Pops to go with her party theme. This year, I made dogs and dog houses. Here's a tutorial and a few other variations that I've done. And, if you're interested, here's football pops, bunny pops, Christmas pops, and a duck/chick pop.

Falling Leaves

I love fall. We don't get a lot of fall where I live so it's a real treat to visit somewhere with changing leaves and crisp fall air. I made the card and tag below for 2 different WCMD challenges: Tracy's fall colors challenge and Godelieve's card and tag combo challenge. I brayered white cardstock with every brown, orange, gold, and copper ink that I own. Then I stamped OBP leaf with ink and embossed with chocolate scented brown embossing powder. mmmm. I rubbed some Perfect Gold Perfect Pearls powder over each leaf and cut them out.
The leaves are really shiny and multicolor IRL.
OBP just for you sentiment stamp.

Shrinky Dink Fun

As a child of the 70s I'm a little ashamed to say that I never tried Shrinky Dinks until this past Saturday. They are so fun. I chose the OBP plain cupcake because 1)it's super cute 2) it's huge and 3) I didn't have to color a lot of detail. Wow! Super easy. The green card was for Teresa's Hey Cupcake Challenge.
The blue card was for Mandy from Limelights Birthday Card Challenge.

Congratulations Kim H.

Thanks to everyone who participated in my challenge to Rock The Vote! I wrote all the names on strips of paper and closed my eyes while I drew a name. I pulled Kim Hutchinson from Running on Ink. Kim is an amazing collage artist. Every friday on her blog she celebrates Fri-cake day and features a cake/cupcake themed project. Her entry is on the left.

Congratulations Kim!

WCMD Continued

Thanks to everyone who participated in my challenge. I loved seeing your interpretation of the theme. I made a lot of cards yesterday. I'll show them throughout this week.

The top card is for the Limetart spring card challenge (since it's spring in Australia.) I used 3 different sheets of Flair Designs paper and OBP Flora Hugabudous and Thank You.

I made the diaper card for Emi's challenge to make an unusual shaped card. I used Sherry's template from the Stamp Shack with various OBP stamps.

I'll do the drawing for the WCMD winner tomorrow. I'll accept enties until midnight my time (PST) tonight.
