Glitter Me Silly

This card was made for my lovely friend Kate as a belated birthday/thank you (she sent me a gorgeous little gift from her recent travels to LA).  Her favourite colour is Aqua Mist so I knew I had to use that!  The stamps are from the Blooming Button Bits set, the buttons are Aqua Mist and the ink and ribbon are Spring Moss.  The backround is done using Polka Dots Basics also in AM.  When I inked up the leaf stamp I then stamped one of the polka dot backgrounds onto the stamp before I stamped it onto the card.  If you look closely you can just see some little dots on the leaves!!  Kate and Aimes have a challenge on at the moment over at A Passion for Papertrey to use a nature theme so I think this qualifies!!

Mornig peeps – here we are at Challenge #17 over at Mo’s Digital Challenge!!  This week our gorgeous February host Dawn want us to incorporate wood into our projects.  I was initially flumoxed but when I started looking through all of Mo’s images there was wood in quite a lot of them!!!  Of course it doesn’t just have to be in the image, you could use a wood effect paper, embellishments, the word “wood” or “would” etc…  The paper on my card is from Cosmo Cricket and the sentiment is from PTI Mega Mixed Messages.

Ok, so I’m stretching this a bit and hoping my bosses Gina and Denise over at Passion for ProMarkers are happy to accept a teddy bear as a “creature”.  It’s just that I was SOOO keen to use this little stamp from my new Papertrey Ink set, Baby Button Bits!  I have coloured him in powder blue and pastel green (a perfect mach for PTI’s Aqua Mist I might add) and then used the blender pen to give him dots (by bleaching out some of the colour).

The polka dots and sentiment, button and ribbon are all aqua mist and the DP is from the Pretty Pastels paper set.  Don’t you just love that sentiment?

The rest of the design team (whose animals all have a pulse!!) have made some gorgeous cards as always so please pop on over for a wee look.  

Big hugs,
