PPA185 - Happy Birthday with Music

The Pals Paper Arts is having a wonderful sketch challenge which ends today, PPA185 designed by Nicole Watt and a great way to start a New Year with another Birthday card.

Here is my card:

Created this birthday card for someone who loves music and thought this DSP paper Modern Medley would be perfect especially with the "notes paper" and thought to add layers of different framelits to pop up the focal point.

Started off with the Window framelits in Cherry Cobbler as my base and than moved onto the Apothecary framelits in Whisper White and embossed using Pretty Print Texture Impressions. Next stamped an image from the set: Friendship Preserves using Cherry Cobbler ink and the Window framelits again to cut it out. 

Last but not least cut a thin strip in black and cut the ends, stamped the sentiment from the set: Create A Cupcake and used the window punch. Also used my favorite Stampin Dimensionals to pop it up in between.

PPA184 - Happy Holidays

The Pals Paper Arts is having a sketch challenge, PPA184  designed by the talented Margaret Moody which I found as a perfect opportunity to get one more Christmas card done and wish everyone "Happy Holidays". 

Here is my card: 

This is such a fun DSP paper, Winter Frost Speciality and one of my favorites as I'm sure might be one of yours. Here I used one of the newest color card stock, Smoky Slate and love how it pairs with Island Indigo. Easy to re-create by cutting 1" strips and laying them down onto a smaller piece of whisper white and trim off the excess.

Here I used the Deco Labels Framelits collection along with Merry Little Christmas stamp set, another favorite of mine. To add the stitch look, Island Indigo marker came to the rescue. Added some Stampin Dimensionals under the Labels and added some seam binding ribbon (Sofy Sky) along with a Very Vintage Designer Button.
