Sometimes You Just Need Cake

Good Morning! Sorry about posting this a little later than usual. I had a very busy weekend with my 2 daughters & lovely granddaughter. We headed off to Kitchener to do some serious shopping at Scrapfest. Then we went to St. Jacob's to visit (and shop) at both the market & the quaint little shops there. Booked into our motel & then went off in search of food & did a little more shopping. Sunday we went to the early service at Lakeside Church & then headed home, stopping in London for lunch (at a little place called"Relish" - best burger I've ever had!) & just a bit more shopping. All around it was a wonderfully fun weekend.

So now on to my card. This week at Kaboodle Doodles we would like to challenge you with a "Card Recipe". We want you to use:

1 Button

2 Patterened Papers

3 Differents Colours

Our sponsor this week is Di'd Digi Downloads and if your card is the chosen one you could win a $10 voucher to Di's store.

For my card I used Di's sweet "Cherry Cake" image. I coloured it up with my Copic Markers. My colour choices were peach, aqua & a browny green. My 2 DP's are by MME. The antique button was in a jar of old buttons given to me by a lovely lady at church, thanks Mary. I folder embossed the cardstock pieces, hand cut the banner, used a couple of staples & a few gems for some bling. The sentiment is a free digi that I punched out with a square punch.

Well, that's it. Hope you'll play along with us.

Welcome Little One

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. My 2 sweet daughters & beautiful granddaughter are taking me to Scrapfest today, so I am sure we will be having a great day.

My card for today features yet another of the sweet images provided to us in the Progressive Challenge over at CDAC. Mammi Doodles is the creator of this cutie. I used the sketch from Fetch A Sketch to design this card. I just love sketches, to me they make the whole process so much easier. Everything on this card is from my leftover stash boxes.Yes, I have boxes of leftover stuff, so I like to use bits & pieces from them whenever I can,( makes my hubby happy also). The sentiment is by Stampin'Up. I used a lot of real stitching on this card. Practice makes perfect & as you can see by my wobbly lines, I need all the pratice I can get!

Well, that's it for today.

hugs to all,

Nancy

Good Morning. Hope you are looking forward to a wonderful day.

For this card I used another one of the images for the Progressive Challenge at CDAC. This image, by TLC Creations, is nearly the same as the other one except that the bear is holding a cupcake instead of a flower. Quick & easy to colour up with my Copics. Again I added real buttons at his arms & legs. Lots of dry embossing & Spellbinder dies used on this one. Papers are MME. I also inked the edges a bit to give a distressed look. Leaves, flowers & sentiment have foam adhesive squares to lift them off the page a bit.

Until next time.

hugs,

Nancy

Sorry...

Today's card features one of the image from the Progressive challenge over at CDAC. This one was provided by Bugaboo Stamps & isn't it a cutie! I used Copics to colour up the image. Lots of die cutting & dry embossing. The Dps are MMe. Inside reads:"Sometimes my halo slips."

Thank you so much for stopping by & for all of your kind comments.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to make a second post for today.

For this card I used one of Mo Manning's sweet images.  Copics were used for the colouring. The papers are MME. Lots of stitching on this one. Some dry embossing. A bit of twine & a freebie sentiement.

Thanks for tolerating me & my frequent posting.

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you're doing great!

This was such a fun card to do. I've not coloured up many food images other than cupcakes & ice cream, so doing a burger was a fun change. The image is one of Meljen's Designs digis. The Dps are MME & Basic Grey. Sentiment is computer generated. Use a dot folder embosser on some of the DP.

Until next time.
