A2ZScrapbooking Challenge - Case a Designer

Hi everyone and Happy September. Today is the start of a new challenge over at A2Zscrapbooking and it is a fun one. The theme is "Case a Designer."  

I have chosen to case a card that was actually a runner up in one of our previous challenges. Tammy created this awesome butterfly card using some citrus colors.  I decided to case this beautiful card using a couple different colors.

Here is Tammy's card. I have provided a link to her post if you would like to check it out.

To create my card I used the digital image set from Hero Arts called Winged Friends. 
I went for the overall design, but chose different colors for the Fall season. I hope you like my card and it inspires you to play along in the challenge this month.

Thanks for stopping by!

Birthday Bug - A2Z Scrapbooking

Hey friends! I am here today sharing a little inspiration for the current challenge going on over at A2ZScrapbooking.

I decided to go digital this time and am sharing some images from the City Adventures Digital Kit.

I love the VW Bugs and Wagons, especially the older ones. My husband owned one when he was in college and it was stolen and stripped for parts. I don't think he ever got over it. So in honor of his BUG, I decided to create a couple of birthday cards. 

These backgrounds are very Bright and Beautiful, which fits in to this months theme over at A2ZScrapbooking.

Don't forget that you can get 25% off your purchase from the store using coupon code MonicaT15 when you spend $25 or more. 

For the inside of the cards I used digital set Special Birthday. 

Digital images can easily be imported to your word documents and sized to whatever size you need. They are a great way to increase you image collection without having to have extra storage space. 

These cards are available for purchase in my etsy shop! Would love for you to check them out. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello!

Hi everyone! I decided to give you a little more inspiration for the challenge going on right now over at A2ZScrapbooking. The theme is Bright and Beautiful, so that is what I am bringing you today, a bright and beautiful HELLO!

I decided to bring out some of my texture paste and stencil to create a sunbeam background. 

To begin, I used some distress oxides to create my blue sky, then I used a Tim Holtz stencil and some texture paste to create some sunbeams.  I was able to outline the sunbeams and the outline of the card using a distress crayons.   I also used a clear stamp set from Finnabair to add some small words on the background.

Next I added some washi tape and a stamped sentiment that reads "hello...you brighten my day and finished it off with some black Nuvo drops.

A2ZScrapbooking Challenge - Bright and Beautiful

Hi everyone! It is a new month, that means a new challenge over at A2ZScrapbooking.  Our theme this month is Bright and Beautiful. So I decided to create a card to hopefully brighten your day!

I decided to pull out the washi tape for this card. I added two rows of this colorful washi tape to a 4.25" x 5.5 piece of white card stock then cut it out using a rectangular stitch die cut.

Then I took another piece of white card stock and added three rows of washi tape and die cut my hello sentiment. I cut out two more of the hello sentiments on some black card stock for layering. 

From there I glued the hello sentiments together and added it to the center of my framed washi tape. 

Hopefully I have inspired you to create a Bright & Beautiful card this month and play along in our challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!
