Happy Birthday Sharman

I have a card today for the very lovely Sharman whose birthday it is and my card is featuring her commissioned image from Simply B Stamps.

I decided to do something extra special for Sharman who is just the loveliest person so have done a tepee card in a shabby chic style.  I’ve got lots of lovely flowers and die cuts and pearls and some distressing happening to go into my card.  As this is an extra special card I am entering it in the current The ABC Challenge.

Here's the left hand side.

 

And the right.

Fussy and Fancy are running a two of a kind challenge at the moment and I have lots of pairs on this.  I have two flourish die cuts, two pairs of paper roses, two pearl flourishes, two die cut labels and two rub-on sentiments.

I’ve never made a tepee card before but it was very easy to do and it is a nice change from a regular card.  Being a different card form I am also entering my card in Bastel-traum’s current challenge.

Just a spoonful of sugar…

This is my second card featuring the awesome new Betty Boo image from Simply B Stamps, this one is teamed with the word art ‘if the broom fits’ as drawn by Betty’s son Christian.

To make up my card I’ve followed the sketch over at Bastel-traum and luckily this one had an oval element that I could print Betty Boo and directly on to with no fussy cutting.  The image comes with the word art perfectly placed as you see here.

Now a witch can’t be without her potion ingredients and these are, as everyone knows, highly toxic so there has to be a warning label or two featuring a skull and crossbones, hence my little charm.  It also works in with the skull on her cauldron.  I found the bone trim in my stash so added that for some interest also.   

Over at Creative Fingers they’re framing things and my image is nicely framed in my oval Nestie, it also fits an anything goes, which their challenges always are, so I am entering my card over there.

I’ve got a third card featuring this fun image coming up in a few minutes and you can see the first one I made at this post.  You can also see the entire set of images and word art you get with Betty Boo over at the SBS blog and what the fab DT gals have done with it and the awesome Zombie Bride image also releasing today by following the links at the bottom of this post.
