MFT Olympics - Event 2


Freestyle means that you can make any card.  Here is mine. 
 I simply used White card stock base and a layer of gray.  I embossed the gray with the Die-namics
ForeWay Chevron Cover.
The cute deer and hearts are from Die-Namics Deer Love.  Rhinestone eyes from my stash.
 Ok, get ready for more!
Thanks so much for stopping, and thanks for your comments.

February Power & Spark: Love to Sparkle!

I am going to make this quick as I made three cards today and I want to get them all posted.  This stamp set is one that I have had for awhile and this is the first time that I have used it.  I can see lots of different uses for it. The color scheme that I used is from Hues to Use.  I will be posting this card to that as well.

 For the Power and Spark challenge, we needed to add Love or Sparkle.  I have a layer of silver which is actually a 6X6 washi tape.
For the Hues to Use, here are the colors.

Double D - Sequins - Exciting News!

I am so super excited to be the newest member of the Double D Challenge.  I love their mood boards and the challenges that they inspire.  When they asked me, I didn't need a second to say YES!
Now I am working with some very talented ladies on this team. Some new and some friends that I consider my BFFs!  Thank you so much.

Now on to the first challenge for me as a Design Team member.     Here is the mood board. 

               Sequins

I just got a new stamp set form Gina K and it was perfect for this challenge.  It is called Emmy and Riley and they are Flamingos.  How amazing is that!  You can put sequins on anything. 
Here is my card. 
I masked off and stamped several of the flamingos to represent the team mates 
that I will be working with.  The sentiment reflecks how I feel about joining their challenge.  
I colored the birds and then cut my sequins in half so that they would fit on just one bird.  That's me! 
Here is the prize! 
Thanks for Stopping by, I will be looking for your creations on this challenge.  I love the comments that you leave, they really make my day.

Seize the Birthday - Candles

It is Thursday and that means it is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday.  

 Our "Topping" option this time around is...
"Candles"

 Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!
If you're not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!
 
Here is my example for you.  Candles are a great option for a birthday card. 
 I made this birthday card for a friend that makes beautiful flower cards.  So I tried to add flowers to this card to impress her.  I hope that she finds this interesting.  
You will be surprised at the dies that I used to create this card. The candles are the post box post from Die-namics, Mailbox.  The flames are really leaves from the Lily set.  See how you can make your dies go farther?  The three panels in the background were heat embossed with white using the Circle Doodle stamp and water colored with Metalic inks.  All of these were placed on a base of Turquoise Sea from Gina K.  The flowers on the bottom are Stampin Up Botanical Builder.  The sentiment is Simon Says It's Your Birthday. 

Please leave a nice comment for our Surprise guest for January and February, Kristie Goulet https://kreativekristies.blogspot.com
