Pop It Up

While I was traveling, I missed posting a few cards.  I thought I would share them with you this week.  This card was for The Hybrid Chick Card Caravan Pop It Up challenge.  The image is Celeste Amberglow Cupcake Party by Pollycraft.  The papers and elements are from Girl Basics by Bella Gypsy Designs.  Bella Gypsy have moved from The Digichick to Scrap Orchard since I made the card.

I printed the image and the paper layers as one layer with shadows.  I printed the butterflies and the banner and cut them out and popped them up.

Scrapbook Layouts

I have two scrapbook layouts to share tonight.  The first one captures the 5K I ran last weekend - still working toward my 1/2 marathon.  I love the warm colors in Second Spring by Amy Stoffel Designs, Cluster Queen Creations, and geniaBeana Scraps.  I used a template from Gimme Layers v. 36 by Cluster Queen Creations.

My Inner Punk by Cluster Queen Creations and geniaBeana Scraps and Gimme Layers vol. 26 by Cluster Queen Creations had the perfect colors to scrap my 2 hour walk through Berlin.  I wish I'd had more time there!

Happy Scrapping!

The Hybrid Chick Card Caravan - 7 things

Hi all!  I'm trying to get back into my regular blogging schedule since all my travels.  So far, it's not going as well as I hoped.  Between Peanut's activities and work, I've been REALLY busy.  

I ran a 5 K yesterday as part of my working toward running the Disney half marathon in January.  Who would have thought exercising could take so much time?

Today, I want to share my card for The Hybrid Chick Card Caravan.  Our challenge this week is to use 7 things on your card.  I used 7 pearls.  I realized that I'm really behind on Christmas cards, so I thought this is as good a time to start as any.  I used Wish List Letter to Santa by etc. by Danyale.  I love the journaling elements in this kit.  I added a sweet Christmas Tilda to finish my card.

Here are the colors I used to color Tilda.  I'm in love with the red and brown color combo, which I learned about in my Created from Color Basic Class.  Totally worth it if you're looking to improve your coloring skills.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says - anything goes

2. ABC Christmas - S is for Santa Clause

3. The Paper Shelter #83 - anything goes
