Pumpkin Cupcake Tag

        I just adore the cupcakes found at There's Magic in the Air with Paper Cupcakes.  They have a free one that ends tonight.  My sister's birthday is on Thanksgiving Day.  The challenge at Paper Cupcakes was to make a "tag".  Perfect...need one for my sister's birthday present.  I used copic markers, circle and scallop punches, ribbon, gem, pop-ups for dimension and the image. Tag opens up!

       I still have one more to do tonight for Stretch n' Bubbles....don't know if I'll make the deadline and definitely didn't make the svg for you, but I'm working on one for tomorrow for sure.

Size: 3"

First Snowflake "Frame It Out" + Freebie

      (CORRECTION:  I ACCIDENTALLY POSTED THIS CARD LAST NIGHT THRU A TYPO WITH DATES.  I WAS TRYING TO TYPE IN OCT. 13 AND THE "3" DIDN'T TYPE.  SO, THE POST WENT OUT TO A FEW FOLLOWERS BY MISTAKE!)


 I have enjoyed my purchased images from Paper Cupcakes.  They also post a freebie each Monday. The challenge is to "Frame It Out".  I used a "faux" window (acetate sheet over window) to frame it. You look through to see the snowman en"joy"ing the first snowflake of the year.  The window "svg", I think is from Images by Heather M.

Flower and pot svg from Svgcuts.com, holly punch, metal snowflake, glitter pens, specialty white paper, and sentiment from Stampin' Up.

I had the cutest idea using my Peachy Keens faces with my iron, but I'm "pressed for time" since I'm leaving for the beach this afternoon.....corny but that's me!!!  (If you make the iron too small, then just draw on the steam iron vents.)

Snowflake Christmas challenge

       I have 3 challenges I want to do before the day is gone (so I'll try to also post later this evening).  I am still cleaning up from the kitchen project.  The snowman is a free image from Paper Cupcakes and their challenge is HERE.  I cut him out, made an easel card, attempted to have the snowflake in mid-air, used sparkles on gloves, scarf and flakes, glossy accents on the buttons and puff paint for the snow at his feet. Strange....it's 85 degrees here and I'm sweating while finishing this little fellow.....haha

Autumn Cupcake Challenge + Freebie

        My DH gave me a few hours off for good behavior (still working on kitchen) so I ran into my "happy place" and made this shape card for Paper Cupcake Challenge being sponsored by Patti Painter.  The digi image was free from Paper Cupcakes.  Get it HERE.  I changed image into an svg and made a shaped card.  It will fit a 5x5 envelop. The red is a warm red, not the bright red you see in the picture. I added lots of pop-ups for dimension, inking, a jewel and lined inside with white paper.

I can not offer the svg since it was a free digi stamp from Paper Cupcakes.  The digi image would be pretty colored with copic markers, which I also plan to do.

My svg freebie is Hello Kitty in a Halloween costume for my friend who loves Hello Kitty.  Remember, this is a trademark and can not be used in any way for profit...only for personal use.

Life is a balancing act! + freebie

PAPER CUPCAKES is having a challenge and offered this adorable "ant with cupcakes" image. My DH thought of the sentiment.  We have a lot of projects going on at our house right now and I guess this is what came to mind....haha  (UPDATE:  I missed the deadline which was 1200 midnight...so sad!)

Size: A2
Card: 3D Birthday Cards (Svgcuts.com)
Cupcake punch (bottom): EK
MS Punch
Cherries: $1 punch
rhinestones, glitter, copic markers

My svg freebie for today is a rake.  Someone was asking for one, so I thought, make one myself to help others.  However, Svgcuts.com has Autumn Elements collection for just a few dollars and they have a lot of other wonderful elements you can use in this collection for anytime during the year.

Hope you don't get blisters from this when raking the leaves...haha!
