613 Avenue Create Challenge #21 - Anything Goes

Good Morning!  We're having a challenge with no twists - just make whatever your heart desires and enter it - isn't that cool?!  Our sponsor is Meljen's Designs.  Here's my inspiration for you:




I used Meljen's sweet Birthday Cupcake image.  I used card stock from my stash, and colored the image with Sharpies and colored pencils.  I dusted the Nesties Scalloped Oval cut with lavender chalk, although it is hard to see.  I added sparkle with a Gelly Roll Stardust pen (also hard to see).  The bling is from Studio G, the sentiment is Fiskars, and the ink is Memento.

My inspiration for using this image is my friend Barb who is a first rate crafter.  Here's a link to her blog The Buzz, featuring her use of this image. Barb's coloring skills are boundless and so is her creativity. She is on the Meljen's design team.  I follow her blog and had to give her a shout :)

Hop over and visit 613 Avenue Create - the DT has some lovely inspiration for you.  We'd love to have you enter the new challenge.  And don't forget - you'll find out last week's winners.  Have a great day and a Happy Memorial Day weekend if you're in the U.S.

I'm entering these challenges:  Crazy 4 Challenges - no commercially made patterned paper; Challenges 4 Everybody - Anything Goes; and Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog, Anything Goes - must have hand coloured image.

Graduation Card

It's been a while since I've had to create a graduation card.  The daughter of a friend of mine graduates from high school soon, and so I made her this card.  I had envisioned it a bit differently, but this is how it turned out.  It's CAS, as usual, and I do like it.  I hope my friend and her daughter like it.  This card could be for a boy or a girl so if I need another, I'll probably just duplicate this one.  I've decided to enter it in two challenges:  Make it Monday (always Anything Goes) and CAS-ual Fridays (Polka Dots). 

Supplies:  Cardstock:  Recollections and my stash; Inks:  Stazon Black, CTMH Black, Versa Mark Red Magic Chalk Ink; Stamps:  Studio G and Stampabilities Cling Rubber Stamp, Polka Dot; Fiskars scallop punch; pop dots.
