Cake Creations

I don't recall playing along with this challenge before, but the Color Dare #400 challenge caught my eye with the shades of purple, blue and green!

I'm needing some birthday cards in July and thought these colors would work well with Ink to Paper's Cake Creations stamp set as well as several of their dies.

STAMPS: Cake Creations (Ink to Paper).
INK: Lavender Moon, Amethyst Allure, Spring Rain, Blueberry Sky, True Black, Lemon Tart, Bright Buttercup, Summer Sunrise, Ripe Avocado, Green Parakeet, New Leaf - dye inks by Ink to Paper.
PAPER: Bitty Big: Amethyst Allure, True Black, White, Classic Kraft (Ink to Paper).
DIES: Sunburst Border, Love To Layer: Scalloped Circles, Skinny Frames: Diagonal Border, Cake Creations (Ink to Paper).

Thanks so much for stopping by!         ~Wanda

This was a quick and easy card for 3 challenges:
SCS Sketch Challenge
Color Throwdown - Riding Hood Red, Pear Pizzazz, Chocolate Chip/Kraft
Color Dare - Riding Hood Red, Old Olive, Neutrals of choice
I tweaked the green option so I could use some old DP from SU. A touch of coloring with Copics, some glitter and a punched border and I had a card done in about 20 minutes!

PAPER: Merry Moments (SU), Chocolate Chip, Riding Hood Red, Vintage Cream

Glory to God

When I saw the lovely colors (Pear Pizzazz, Night of Navy, Soft Suede) posted on the Color Dare Challenge blog, I knew I had to make a quick Christmas card using some new Verve images! This easy card includes an embossed top, stamping at bottom using a Verve border stamp, die cut border on green DP, sponging after Nestie circle cut out. Some rhinestones and ribbon top it off.
STAMPS: Richly Blessed (Verve), Bountiful Borders (Verve)
PAPER: Night of Navy, DP by SU, Soft Suede, Neenah Solar white
INK: Night of Navy, Soft Suede, Pear Pizzazz
ACCESSORIES: CB, EF, Nesties, Sheer ribbon, Tim Holtz Brackets border die, Rhinestones

Consider it CASED!

This card is for 3 challenges:
Color Dare #82 - use Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy & Old Olive
Free 4 All - paper piece with scraps
The Shabby Tea Room 33 - Consider it CASED (copy and slightly edit one of the designer's cards)
I definitely have a significant pile of scraps to use up, so this bird punch was the perfect solution to use. I CASED Cathy's card by using the bird theme, keeping it a square card but tweaking her layout a bit.
STAMPS: All Year Cheer I (SU), Bountiful Backgrounds (Verve)
PAPER: Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy, Blue Awning DP by K&Co
INK: Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight
ACCESSORIES: Olive ribbon, EK Success border punch, CB, Nesties, Sponge, Black pearl
