Celebration Balloons

Hello Crafty Friends!

Just a little reminder that there is still time to play at the June challenges over at STAMPlorations. Here is a little more inspiration for their Theme & Photo Prompt Challenge ...

The theme for the current challenge is Stamps & Confetti and the photo prompt can be seen below. Your project can either be inspired by the theme, photo prompt or both. The full challenge rules can be found here on the STAMPlorations Blog.

My inspirations am from both the theme and photo both of which were asking for a shaker card. What better way to incorporate confetti ... The greens and orange hues from the photo provided me with the inspiration fro my colour scheme.

As for the prizes:
Two winners, one of a $15 gift certificate and one of a $10 gift certificate, will be picked by one member of our DT.
Plus 3 randomly drawn winners will each receive a $5 gift certificate.

In order to be considered for a prize, make sure you've followed the rules here.

Pop over to the STAMPlorations Blog to check out how my teamies interpreted the challenge theme and prompt and of course to join in the fun too. More challenge inspiration can be found in the June Challenges Reminder post here on the STAMPlorations Blog.

That's it from me for now. Have a lovely day!

Confetti Birthday

Hello Crafty Friends!

It is time to welcome June and the start of another round of challenges over at STAMPlorations. Here is my DT piece for this month's Theme & Photo Prompt Challenge ...

The theme for the current challenge is Stamps & Confetti and the photo prompt can be seen below. Your project can either be inspired by the theme, photo prompt or both. The full challenge rules can be found here on the STAMPlorations Blog.

As you probably already guessed most of my inspiration came from the theme with the stamped masks, heels and the green sequins and splatters giving a mod to the photo inspiration too.

I basically wanted to create a celebratory confetti mess. I sponged and blended my colours (Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo), spritzed with water and added the stamping and green splatters. The Birthday Word Art sticker was the perfect sentiment to complement the background. Gold and green sequins finished my card off.

As for the Theme & Photo Prompt Challenge prizes:
Two winners, one of a $15 gift certificate and one of a $10 gift certificate, will be picked by one member of our DT.
Plus 3 randomly drawn winners will each receive a $5 gift certificate.

In order to be considered for a prize, make sure you've followed the rules here.

Birthday Stickers

Hello Crafty Friends!

It's Release and Celebration Time this week over at STAMPlorations as they are having their belated 6th Birthday Celebrations and releasing a few new products too.

Day 4 is dedicated to introducing a few new Clear Stickers.

Here are today's projects ...

Well, I used Shirley's new set in an unconventional, rather abstract way in combination with a sticker to create my background and finished off with a fuzzy cut candle and die-cut heart and sentiment.

The birthday sticker is coloured with alcohol markers and the cake swirls were stamped using archival ink.

For my last card, I stamped a label using the cake set as a background for my coloured sticker.

I was working with these two sets of stickers ...
