I seriously cannot believe 2 weeks have gone by since our last Embellish challenge. Good thing the girls reminded me the other day but even then I had to go check the dates for myself to believe it. Time flies when you're having fun, right?!!
Speaking of fun.....this is officially my new most favorite colour combo! Hawaiian Shores, Blueberry Sky, White and Soft Stone. LOVEEEE!!! And I just happened to be in need of a card for my wonderful friend Kristina who's celebrating a birthday on Monday. I made this just for her. Of course, I had to add a heart because I {heart} her so much. Why yes, it does appear that l will put a heart on any type of occasion card. I can't help myself!!!
I used Technique Tuesdays Happy Birthday set to stamp the little cupcake and the sentiment below the die cut letters. I managed to find my Liquid Applique in my {horribly messy and disorganized} craft room so I used it for the icing. For my "jeweled" portion of the card I used these tiny little turquoise dots which are like mini sequins as sprinkles. If I remember correctly I think my fabulous friend, Bernie, sent these a couple of years ago. Smile. I stuck the candle in the wet Liquid Applique so it's not going anywhere!
Please join us over at the Embellish Challenge Blog. We'd really love to see what you create using the amazing inspirational image and colours. Don't forget the jewels. This can be anything from sequins, beads, rhinestones or pearls. If you think it's a jewel then it counts! See you all there!
I also hope to be around this weekend with a new Thrifty Finds post. I always have something to share and I even bought a piece of furniture yesterday which will be my next paint project. I must be crazy for taking on a project like that!
