Challenge #77 Birthday Fun for SAS4Kids

 

It's time to make some Fun Birthday Cards over at

 

SAS4Kids

 

Our GENEROUS SPONSOR'S 

for this Challenge are

 

Dollar Graphics  - $15 Gift Certificate

Bugaboo  - 7 digi images of Winner's Choice

QKR Stampede - 5 digi images of Winner's Choice

 

 

Now what can be more fun than to

eat yummy cake?

My image is from Bugaboo. I didn't need to colour

too much of this great image just a little pink

with some Kindy Glitz on the cupcake

Star Dust Stickles around the frame

and the frosting I used Snow White Flower Soft.

I also scored the back and bottom frame.

Added Glitter Matt Stack paper

Buttons and Sentiment is from

Inspired by Stamping - A Lovely Birthday.

 

 

 

I loved looking at all the gorgeous images over at Dollar Graphics

and finally decided on a pre coloured digi (my favourite kind)

I used

Coloured Card Stock

Scrap piece of DP

Spellbinders Circles/Lacey Circles

Corner Punch

Pearls

Sentiment is Heat Embossed and from

Inspired by Stamping - Chalkboard Stamp Set.

 

Since I only used one of the images for this challenge

I made another because I loved them so much.

 

 

That's it for me for now.

Don't forget to pop over to the rest of  the SAS4Kids Team

to see what they have created for our

 

FUN BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE.

 



For Mother's Day or a Special Lady - Challenge #24 at Crafting with Dragonflies



My card below is for a Special Lady - My Daughter.

I am SO EXCITED that in a few months I will get to

celebrate 2 very special occasions.

My granddaughter is getting married and my younger daughter

is flying over from Perth

(which is over the other side of Australia from where I live)

She is the baby one on my Baby Blog Hop post.

 

 

It just so happens we will be able to celebrate her birthday

while she is here so I am a pretty Happy Lady.

It will be a memorable get together as we are flying north

to Cairns for this Special Time.

On to our CHALLENGE. -

As the heading states it is a CARD

 for Mother's Day which is 11th May in Australia

or you may have a Special Lady like me

that you can make your card for.

We would like you to go ALL OUT

with this one and make it REALLY SPECIAL.

And on a sadder note

This is my last post for Crafting with Dragonflies.

For the present I need to cut back a little on my Crafting time.

 

I would like to say the biggest Thank You to Hilde

who had faith in my work and invited me

to be part of her Design Team when this blog started.

Some of the Challenges we shared over the last 10 months

 certainly took me out of my comfort zone

several times but loved the fact that I got to

try out new ideas.

Next I would like to say Thank You to my

Fellow Design Team Friends for all the

help and encouragement we shared.

It has been an amazing journey.

 

I am just cutting back on some commitments for now 

and will still be sharing my work when time permits.

So stay tuned

 Thank you so much for stopping by..
