Project Fifteen

I am so EXCITED today! I order my very first Peachy Keen Stamps last week, yes I know its about darn time. Well they arrived today!! So I wanted to finally do my first challenge with them at their blog, Peachy Keen Stamp Challenge Blog. The challenge was to do your favorite summer thing using one of the following B's : button, bling or brads. So I used BLING! Wee you would think where would any Disney-holic want to go during summer....Disney...right...WRONG!! I lived in Florida for to long not to know. During Summer, the ride lines are 4 times longer and the heat index is to darn hot. So my favorite thing during the summer, is to get out or doggie pool and let the fur babies play in the water. This is my princess, Lady, she loves the water. Since I have always wanted a Disney bathing suit, they don't make them in "fluffy" sizes for me, I got to create one on my doll. I gave her some Mickey bling on her suit, flip flops and Hair. Yeah Disney. Lady even got a bling collar that looks like a Disney head. I love this during the summer.

Project Fourteen

Hello Everyone!
So for today's project is for a challenge plus sentimental reasons.
The challenge was over at Cuttlebug Challenges. We were to use lace or doilies plus embossing.

I loved the idea but was having inspiration challenges for this one.
Well this morning I got up to read my blogs as always.
Well Robyn over at My Pink Stamper
suggested we all send pink cards to a fellow crafter who is battling breast cancer. Monique over at Monkey Doodle Cricut has been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I have never meet her but have been following her craft blog for awhile now.

So the inspiration came to me for this challenge. Normally I do put Disney into everything, but this time I am keeping it simple and just using the Disney Happily Ever After Cartridge. Just a sweet card to let her know we are all thinking of her and praying for her recovery. If you would like to join in pop over to Robyn's blog My Pink Stamper for details.

Lace is from scraps I had here in a pile.

Card is 5 1/2 by 4 1/4

    Than I used my Cuttlebug folder Textile (love this folder)

Tree

Purple was Shadow base/icon with shift
Black was Icon with shift
I used pink stickles for the flowers.

Project Twelve

Welcome back to Disney Scrapping!
OK so I love challenges because it gets me out of my box and makes me think...love it
So I found a cool challenge on The Cuddlebug Spot. We were to use 2x2 embossing squares.
So I needed to send my Brother-in-Law a birthday card. So I tried to make a "manly" card so hard not to throw some flowers on it! I keep with my whole Disney theme by putting Disney balloons instead of  plain ones. I think it turned out cute.


Recipe
~~~~~~~~~
card size: 8 1/5 x 5 1/2 inches
Blue background piece cut at 8 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches

Cartridge used was plantin schoolbook
Squares cute at:
Pattern Square 2 1/2 inches
Brown Square 2 1/4 inches
Blue paper 2 inches

Paper is Brazzil and pattern pieces are DCWV

I took the blue squares and embossed them using the cuddlebug Birthday folder.
    but first I applied Stampin Up Craft Ink to the folder before running it thru

Had to have Mickey somewhere RIGHT....
So I created the balloons using circle that I played with in DS
I stamped the saying using stamps set from My Paper Studio and Black Stampin Up ink

I used basic gel pens for the accents and brown ribbon

Thanks
