Whatever Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday Everyone,

I've made a card for you today, oh and I've started a new thing on my blog. Yesterday I featured two tags for Tag It Tuesday and since today is Wednesday of course it's Whatever Wednesday. I'm sure you've figured that out. So anyway for my project today I made a card. I've been sitting on this for some time now. I knew that I wanted the card to be for a special person in my life and it had to be just as special. I probably could have done it a little differently and added more bling and dressed it up more, but instead I kept it simple. My niece is turning 16 next month and decided to make her a special Sweet 16 Birthday card. I found out that she's not having a big party or anything, so I wanted to make this extra special for her.

For my project I used My Creative Time Dies, and the two that I used were the Stitched 4x6 Journal Die and the Lowercase Fun Die. I also used the stamp set Floral Sentiments for the Happy Birthday on the inside. My card is 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. The layers for the top are 5 1/4 x 4, 5 x 3 3/4, 4 3/4 x 3 1/2, 4 1/2 x 3 and 4 x 2 3/4. For the top piece I used Labels Four from Spellbinders which I popped up using Stampin' Up! dimensionals. I also used the Stampin' Up! Basic Jewel Rhinestones. So without further ado, here is my card.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I had making it. As always Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Crafting,

Blooms and Butterflies Color Challenge #27

Hello Everyone,

It's officially Friday and I have a project for you. This is a color challenge by a group of ladies who are Stampin' Up! Demonstrators and belong to the Blooms and Butterflies Team, hosted by Brandy Cox over at http://brandyscards.com/. This color challenge was definitely a challenge and it had me thinking outside the box. I know, some of you are probably thinking it can't be that hard, but I couldn't make up my mind on what to use as far as stamps went, didn't know if my card was actually going to turn out or if I was going to have to start all over. I was on a deadline and it had to be done. The colors we had to use were Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point. This color combination sure did turn out beautifully. The stamp sets I used were Flower Shop #130942 along with the Pansy Punch #130698, you can also buy the Flower Shop Stamp Set and coordinating Pansy Punch (p. 183 in the catalog) together at a 15% discount. I also used Really Good Greetings #130333 (p. 38 in the catalog). I also used the stamp set Best of Butterflies (which is no longer available). I also used two embossing folders, Honeycomb #129378 (p. 191) and Chevron #127749 (p. 191). Come and join us, the object of the challenge is to have fun, you can use any stamp sets and embellishments you like, you just have to use the colors Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point. Well without further ado, here is my card.

Don't forget to stop by and check out what the other talented designers have created using these colors at Brandy's Cards.

As always, Thanks for stopping by!
