Wish Big, it’s gonna be your BEST Birthday yet! Don’t you love birthday sentiments?! They always make me chuckle…it’s a secret but I don’t believe a word of it! lol I used both sets of Amy R’s new birthday stamps, in the store HERE…

Cupcake Birgitta, in the store HERE…is the sweetest thing and look at that stack of cupcakes… chocolate of course… I love coloring those red cherries… red and brown, my fave colors…. the stool is in the store HERE.

I stamped Birgitta and her stool with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, in the store HERE and colored her with Copic Sketch Markers, in the store HERE. Hair – E50, 13, 15, 17, 19… Dress – R30, 32, E04…Wings – B01, 05, W1, W5… Cupcakes – top E50, 51, 53 bottom E55, 57, 59, 49… Stool – E41, 42, 43. The oval is cut with Nestabilities oval dies, in the store HERE and edged with Distress inks Broken China and Stormy Sky, in the store HERE and the ink blending too, in the store HERE.

Cupcake punch is from Martha Stewart, The two border punches I used are from EK Success. Stampers Anonymous newspaper rubber stamp and Hero Arts new ledger paper background cling stamp for the borders on the sentiments. The inside swirls is a old background stamp from Hero Arts also. The candle is cut from the EK Success candle border punch.

Flashback…

March 14, 2011March 14, 2011 Pam Sparks11 Comments

So here’s the scoop for Flashback Friday Challenge Blog…**first card you have posted with a window cut into the front of the card** I found this in my Splitcoast Stampers Gallery, I made it for Christmas 2007. yipes, where does the time go! I know I got the idea from someone online but I sure don’t remember where now! If it was you, THANKS! I loved the inspiration! This is not the first card I ever made with a window cut in the front… I’ve been stamping since April of 1994, so it’s impossible to remember that first one! For me that is!!! lol

HERE is my card in my SCS gallery. Wish I had a picture of the inside but I can’t find one. figures.

What a fun challenge blog… I love looking back… have a nice day and see you tomorrow!

I’m Your Angel…

March 11, 2011August 6, 2013 Pam Sparks30 Comments

“I’m Your Angel“, one of Bildmalarna’s new images for Spring at All That Scraps.com, HERE. It’s feeling like it could be Spring here soon! Love days like today… around 53˚! Not to cold and not hot either! Today was our monthly stamp club meeting and the swap was to create a card with an extra fold, so I made an easel card and envelope with my trusty Martha Stewart Score Board, HERE… love that thing! I do use an embossing stylus instead of the scoring tool that comes with it though. I just find it works better.

I inked her up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on PaperTrey Ink Select White card-stock and colored her with Copic Sketch Markers. Skin E000, 00, 01, diluted R20…Hair E50, 51, YR30, 31…Dress, socks, flower R0000, 81…leaves G20, 40…wings YR30, 31, didn’t realize I left such a definite outline next to her sleeve.. oops! lol

Fun to work with pastel colors and this new cutie! The papers are from an old 6×6 pack from Memory Box. The tulip border is a punch from Martha Stewart, HERE, that I punched and then clipped and formed to fit around the Nestabilities scallop oval…the nestabilities ovals are in the store HERE. I wanted the green scallop to look like grass! I’m gonna try it again with darker tulips next time! Finally used my Martha Stewart Vintage Lace border punch too… and Martha’s grass border and butterfly punches too! A punchy card! ugh! The sentiment and floral border stamps are from Printworks. The floral chorus line stamp is HERE and the sentiment is HERE. Awesome Printworks goodness!

Some Spring Challenges out there I’m linking up to… one here… the Crop Stop Challenge Blog…Stampin’ For the Weekend Challenge Blog is Spring. On the Charisma Cards Challenge Blog the theme is Easel cards.

Hope I didn’t forget anything… just holler if I did! Have a great weekend and thanks for visiting my blog!

I also used the Magnolia Doohickey’s dies, Tilda’s Lace and the mini scallop lace.

The pattern papers are from the new 6×6 MME pad Stella Rose, Hazel. Elongated Rectangle Nestabilites for the shapes… love them!
