Happy Birthday All Star!

I "won" this cute little bear image, All Star word art (I added the Happy Birthday), and digipapers from Create with TLC. Paulette announced a new kit and the first 6-ish visitors got to download it for free! I just love these images and papers for boy cards. I glittered the star, hat, and bug with my new Stickles (yellow) and some glitter I had. The ribbon came from my stash.

1. Party Time Tuesday #4 - red, white, and blue

2. Crafty Pad #76 - recipe - 1 circle, 2 rectangles, 3 papers, ribbon

Celebrate Red, White and Blue

I had fun with this great firecracker freebie and word art from Create with TLC. I tried a new fold for the card. It's hard to tell in the photo, but the top flap (with the firecrackers) folds up. The red star layer folds down and then the message is inside on blue star paper.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

1. Sew Many Challenges #18 - 4th of July and fancy fold

2. Stamp Something - Something Summery

UPDATE - this card was a runner up at Sew Many Challenges.

Happy Scrapping!

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says Stamp - Pirates

Create with TLC Design Team Call

Create with TLC has a Design Team Call. She has such a great blog with wonderful freebies. I found this great turtle digi on her blog. For some reason, when I printed them out with one flipped I imagined a turtle wedding. I used a pre-embossed card because I thought the juxtaposition of the elegant and the turtles was cute. I drew a little hat for the groom turtle and sewed a little veil on the bride turtle.

I used the same turtle digi along with Paulette's cute word art to create a birthday card. I used some ribbons and buttons from my stash to liven up the front of a plain white card.

Finally, I used the beautiful carousel horse image along with the merry-go-round word art to create this card. I used some gold detailed paper along with prima flowers. It's hard to tell, but the horse and word art have glitter detail.

Well, I don't know if that's enough for a place on the design team, but I had a lot of fun and now I have some beautiful cards. I know I'll keep following Create with TLC for the fun challenges and the great freebies.

Happy Scrapping!
