Monarch Wedding Cake

I created this card for two challenges: SCS Inspiration Challenge and Virginia's View (getting in just under the wire).  For the inspiration challenge we were to find a photo from a Pinterest board full of mod wedding cakes.  I chose this cake.  I used a Darice embossing folder for the top panel and then colored and cut three monarch butterflies from the Sweet 'N Sassy Monarch stamp set.

White Out

The SCS CAS challenge this week was to create all white cards.  The top card was embossed with the balloon folder and then I die cut the sentiment three times and stacked them for dimension.
The second card is all one embossing folder.  I just added some clear rhinestones to the butterfly and flowers.
I am submitting this to Virginia's View challenge:

I am submitting the second card to Darnell's NBUS challenge #3 as well as Casology - cue card - NBUS.  I've had the embossing folder forever and this is the first time I used it!

Thanks for coming by!

Believe

The SCS CAS challenge this week is to use stars on your card.  I inked up this image from Taylored Expressions with Memento Paris Dusk ink and stamped it on PaperTrey white cardstock.  THe sentiment is from the same stamp set.  I embossed the card front with a Darice embossing folder and then mounted the panel with foam tape.

Summer Camp Week 1 Day 2

Today I used another sketch from the Card Camp class and the colors for this week to make this card.  This is a birthday card for one of the founding members of my synagogue.  He is 90 years old today.  In Hebrew the letters of the alphabet are equated to numbers and the Hebrew word for "life" is Chai which has a numeric value of 18.  So "Chai 5" equals 90!  I have to give credit to my DH who came up with the idea for Chai 5 though I did the design of the card which I really like!!
I used a Darice balloon embossing folder, hand cut the banner and used paperTrey dies for the letters and number.  All papers are from PaperTrey.

I am also submitting this to Make My Monday: Balloons.

FBW245 - A Sketch

Welcome to Flutter By Wednesday.  This week we have a sketch by our DT member Kathy:

I hope you play along with us using this fabulous sketch and if you do please remember to include a butterfly or a fairy.  Then go to the FBW blog to link it up and check out the rest of the FBW DT's creations!

I used the colors from the Just Us Girls (JUGS) challenge 193:

Aqua, Harvest Gold, Kraft and White.

I just got the Butterfly Wishes stamp and die set from Clearly Besotted and used the small butterflies.  The sentiment also from the set was stamped with Versamark and embossed with detail white embossing powder.  I used a Darice border embossing folder on the aqua panel and an MFT border die for the scalloped border.  I finished off the card with just a little bling.
