Birthday Chomper

This week over at DYSU they are hosting a color challenge where we can showcase TEAL on our projects. I paired a few blues together with a bit of crumb cake, tossed in this week's Card Patterns Sketch #139

and came up with a chomping-ly sweet Birthday card fit for a boy (or little boy blue, in this case).

SU! products used:

Stamps - Hostess Happiest Birthday Wishes, retired Hostess Long Fellows, retired Sale-A-Bration So Happy For You

Ink - Island Indigo, Craft Whisper White

Paper - Island Indigo DSP, Pacific Point, Tempting Turquoise, Crumb Cake

Punch - small Star

Ribbon - Crumb Cake

White Embossing Powder

a little slow...

 Not sure if it's the move, being away from everything familiar or just my Mama brain BUT I'm in need of a serious pot of coffee and a regular school schedule for my daughter to get back on track, thankfully last week is starting to help all future dates look UP, hooray for school!

I made this little turtle card for a friend, better late than never, right?!
This weeks Wee Memories Challenge #67 is all about one layered cards and since this one's so flat (perfect for mailing!) I thought I'd give it a go and enter.

Punches used: Word Window

Stamp Set: Long Fellows

Colors: Whisper White, Basic Black & Lucky Limade

A little late

Dang, I missed another birthday but at least I have an excuse to use this adorable little turtle from SU! Hostess Long Fellows stamp set. Isn't he cute?? I used this weeks ColourQ challenge in picking the colors for my card. Wouldn't you know I just happened to save the outside scrap from my previous card's top note and it worked PERFECTLY!! :) Love it when that happens! I started my base with Daffodil Delight, placed my Top Note outline in Early Espresso to frame my little happy green turtle. A scrap of Old Olive run through the Big Shot with an EF which looks like grass and Kiwi Kiss...um, was stumped on that color till I remembered the DSP Sampler I had stashed in the bottom of a drawer and viola, Kiwi Kiss DSP, SWEET!! Some Old Olive ribbon, some bling and a cute little LATE birthday card for a wonderful lady in Iowa.
