World Card Making Day 2014 - Birthday Cheer

It is World Card Making Day and I have managed to create a card - only just in time I might add!!  It is a quick and easy card, but I am loving the end results.


The base is created using A2 Modern Stationery Spellbinders® Nestabilities® Card Creator


The white card is patterned using a retired Stencil from Layers of Color and IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Radiant Neons in Electric Pink, Electric Yellow and Electric Orange.  This has then been sprayed using IMAGINE Crafts® IrRESISTibles in Danube Blue.




 Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Tangelo and Dandelion have been splattered onto the card.  This has been cut/embossed using the A2 Modern Stationery Die and adhered to the card base using Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L E-Z Runner .


 The butterfly is from the Wonderful Wings Spellbinders® Shapeabilities® and the sentiment from SRM Stickers, the bling is from Want2Scrap.

Thank you for your comments and all of the support you give me - you make blogging such an amazing place to be!! Your encouragement is such a blessing for me - it makes my day! God bless you!

Scripted Flowers

I am definitely a shabby/vintage person at heart - vintage would definitely be my 'first love'. but I have to be honest and say that I am inspired by so many styles I see both in Blogville and Pinterest, I am always inspired to try different styles.


CAS (Clean and Simple) is one style I admire but I have to admit I didn't always find it easy - infact it took me longer to create a CAS card than my layered eclectic cards...but the more I do it, the easier it seems.


  

I have used a Script stamp for my base, using IMAGINECrafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Teal Zeal.  The Snapshot Spellbinders® Shapeabilities® has been cut using Black cardstock and adhered to the side.  The flower is from my collection and has been adhered using liquid glue.


IMAGINE Crafts® Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Pink has been both sprayed and dripped onto the card base.  Finishing off with some randomly placed sequins.  Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares and E-Z Runner have been used on this card.



This card is linked to the following challenges: 
Crafty Sentiment Designs - Anything Goes 
Die Cuttin' Divas - Anything Goes 
Artistic Inspirations - Anything Goes/ Color
The Crazy Challenge - Die cuts and punches
 613 Avenue Create  Anything Goes w/optional use a sentiment

I have also used Delicata™ Pigment Ink in Shimmery Silver and irRESISTibles ™ Texture Spray in White.  The sentiment is stamped in IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink in Onyx Black.


This card is created in the same way but using Delicata™ Pigment Ink in Golden Glitz
