Totally Papercrafts and Stamp Something Challenges

Hi all I am now back from my trip and will be popping by to see you all asap :-)

It is Friday and a lovely weekend of relaxing ahead for us all , so if you have some spare time we would love to see you joining in with our challenges :-)

On the Totally Papercrafts Challenge we have the theme of

SPOTS and STRIPES ,,

sponsored by Simon Says Stamp and the Digistamp Boutique

and on the Stamp Something Challenge we have the theme of

4th July/Celebrate ,,,, red/white/blue ,,, :-)

also sponsored by Simon Says Stamp :-)





For my card I used this very cute Helz Cuppleditch Ruffles Party stamp. I coloured with copics and inked the edges with distress ink. I added glossy accents to the bone and balloons and a few dots of stickles here and there :-) The papers are from Pink Petticoat and I embossed a circle of white card with a star folder, I sewed all the edges on my machine. The star shape was cut on my cricut and I added a few white Robins Nest Dew Drops, some ribbon and a button to finish :-)
