A NEW Challenge + A NEW Digi Release = FUN FUN FUN!!!

Happy Wednesday!

I hope you are all having a happy and blessed week so far.

I have so many things to be thankful for, I can't even begin to list them all!

I will start by letting you know that today is my dear and sweet friend  Sheryl's birthday.

She is such a blessing in my life and I am so glad that God brought us together. 

She is not only a wonderful and caring friend, but she is also an amazing 

card designer. She helps me out so much and is such an encouragement. 

Sheryl, I hope you have a very beautiful and happy birthday! 

In honor of her special day,

I chose to create with our NEW Digi: CUTIE BUG GIFT 

I used the splitcoast stampers Wednesday sketch for this card

This card was created using papers from my huge scrap box. I have had them

FOREVER and have no idea what line they came from. The twine and textured fabric 

are also from a huge messy box of ribbon madness. 

The red felt is actually a flocking transfer sheet by Martha Stewart. 

Other materials: Spellbinders die: Scalloped circles,  pearlex powders, prismacolor markers, 

white gel pen, and a SU sentiment stamp. 

(Close up of painted on sparkle)

The next card I have to share with you is for our NEW June challenge at FBC. 

The challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to create a NEW project using

the colors RED WHITE AND BLUE

My card features the Fresh Brewed Designs Digital Stamp:

BOB

I also used the splitcoast stampers Wednesday sketch for this card

Materials: SCRAP PAPERS (blue cs is by bazzil I think)

Darcie embossing folder: clouds

Prismacolor markers, copic markers,  and a white gel pen

I added a sentiment to the inside of the card using a printed sentiment 

and cut it out with a PTI Cloud diecut

Thank you so much for stopping by today and checking out my SUPER LONG POST!
