Stampin' In Alaska

  On a recent flea marketing trip I came across a packet of old book pages, sheet music and atlas pages.  That was the beginning of my altered tag.  A book page was used to collage the tag then various items from my stash were layered to create the Happy Birthday tag.   Several of the items - transparency, button and sticker - were included as freebies in my Unity Stamp Company orders.  The birthday tab is from Memory Box and the floral image is an older woodblock stamp. I would like to share my tag with the following: Tag-along (and ATC's) Challenge:  August AG or Fashion Time Out Challenge: #318 Nature Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes Word Art Wednesday Challenge:   #762-763 Anything Goes

  I'm sharing a fun nautical boy card for the current challenge at All Dressed Up.  My card features the adorable ADU digital Little Fishes . The image was printed onto X-Press It card stock and colored with alcohol markers.   It was die cut and layered on paper from Doodlebug Designs. A wood mount sentiment was stamped onto one of the flags.  Cloud dies from My Favorite Things and Doodlebug Design matt sprinkles finish the card.

  I'm joining the current sketch and color challenges with a fun birthday shaker card.  My card features the retired Happy Bday Centerpiece die.  I have never been very successful with shaker cards, but thought this die would be perfect.  The finished card is 5x7 which is larger than I normally create, but it really ended up nice! I incorporated the current colors with the sequins and sentiment strip from BB Greetings Galore set. I would like to share my card with the following: My Favorite Things Color Challenge #155 My Favorite Things Sketch Challenges #519 Cute Card Thursday Challenge:  #664 Anything Goes   Word Art Wednesday:  Anything Goes #468 - #469   Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:  Favorite Technique     (Die cuts)

I'm back to share a glittery birthday card for Day 5 of Camp Create with My Favorite Things.  Check out the fun tutorial video from MFT Camp Counselor Stephanie for all of the details. My card started with various strips cut from glitter paper that I recently purchased from JoAnne's.  I love this paper!  All of the glitter fun without the glitter mess! The MFT Happy Birthday die-namic was cut twice and layered then adhered to the base.  A couple of glittery enamel dots finish the card.

I'm stopping in with a quick post for this week's Unity Friends With Flair . This clean and simple design started with the sweet airplane image from Unity's A Little Destination . (Sorry, the sentiment fit very snugly into the banner!) I heat embossed the cloud image from Epic Moments   with white detailed embossing powder on the Stampin' Up Crumb Cake Base. I'm also sharing my card with  Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Use a rubber or clear stamp Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to leave a comment for your chance at a fabulous Unity Prize.
