The Stamping Chef Challenge and A Happy Birthday to my 'Little' girl!!

Time for a new Anything Goes Challenge over at The Stamping Chef.  I decided to tie this DT card in with my 'little' girls birthday! Can't believe my biggest baby is 10 today!! Where has the time gone??

So here is my DT card and big baby's birthday card using Sweet Treats!


I coloured this cutie using copics but I was naughty (again!) and didnt write the combos down :( sorry folks. She is so easy to colour up I love her and will be doing lots more with her! 

The backing papers are from first edition and a dovecraft 6x6 pad I picked up at a craft show, think some of the other papers in the pad have cupcakes on if I remember rightly! I also used plain Bazzill cardstock for the matting. I used the La La Land banner die and layered it twice using 2 different coloured. I also added some blossoms and put sparkling rhinestones in the centre for some more sparkle! Charlotte is just like me! She's drawn to pretties!! lol It doesn't show up very well in the piccy but I used deco art glamour dust on her mane and tail to add even more sparkle :D

The cupcakes were made using Martha Stewart Paper clay and a MS mould. They fitted in perfectly with the image and the sentiment was typed into word and printed. I finished her off with some pearls in the corners.

Hope you like her! I had so much fun making this one up! Do check out the other Sous Chefs makes when you get 5 mins for lots more inspiration. Also some of the lovely girls are leaving us after this challenge so pop by and show them some love! :)

Scribble & Scrap - Challenge #7

Morning all! Time for another challenge over at Scribble and Scrap and as always its Anything Goes! Super easy to enter! 

Here is my DT card using Vintage Girls Topper Sheet 1.



The patterned papers are from DCWV Elegance Stack and I have also used bazzill. I added some brown lace across the centre of the card. the frame around the sentiment was made using white UTEE with my melting pot, as were the corners and they were all done using Martha Stewart silicone moulds. I also rubbed a little gold perfect pearls over the top of them to give them a more vintagey look. The flowers are Prima got flowers with pearls added to the centres and the leaves are a Martha Stewart punch. I added a metal corner embellishment and a metal butterfly with a pearl also added to the centre to finish off the card. 

Its a very different type of card for my as I am very much a digi girl but I really enjoyed making it and coming out of my comfort zone! Hope you like her!

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you will pop by the other DT girls blogs for lots more inspiration!
