Cheer Up!

Happy Thursday friends~ I'm here today with a couple of card for a couple of challenges. First up, is a card using the colors from Cupcake Inspirations



I started with a Kraft card base and cut the flowers using PTI's Doodlie-Do stamp set. I heat embossed the flowers and leaves using white embossing powder and colored them in using my Zig Real Brush water colors. I layered the front panel onto a scalloped panel cut using MFT's Blueprints #20 and added an MFT sentiment that I simply framed using a copic multi-liner pen.

My next card is for the Paper Players Challenge


I used my favorite wellie boot from PTI's Green Thumb set and the small sun from Lil' Inkers. The stitched scalloped square and sentiment is from MFT.

I'll also be adding one of these cards to the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I so enjoy reading your comments and knowing you were here! Blessings~ Birgit

Love that Doodlie Do card. I have not used in awhile. And your second card is just too cute.

Who would not cheer up with this amazing truth and card sweetness!!?? I love the soft pastel colors you used with the stamp set. I almost never use the lighter colors with it - not sure why but I will have to now! : )

The sunshine in your second card will do away with the need for those rain boots in no time!! Sensational cards Birgit!!

Have a blessed day friend.
