MOTHER'S DAY CARD

Hi everyone, I have a card I would like to share today. The sketch I used is from The Pixie Cottage challenge # 15.  I have used a digital from Busy Beauties Boutique (BBB).  Cardstock is by Recollections and background paper is from Deja Views the Sharon Ann little ones collection. All coloring is sharpie markers and chalking from inkadinkado. Fairy's wings and dress was stickled with lime green stickles and baby blue stickles for the water droplets off the flower.  The fence is a MS border punch.  Sentiment is a Sandylion Essentials sticker.





This is the inside of the card. The sticker is also a part of the sentiment on the front.

 It is for several challenges. I finally did one that qualifies for more than one challenge at a time!  

I am entering this card into:

Busy Beauties Creatiion Station - Go green with a twist. I recycled the rectangle behind the world's best mom sticker.  Now it looks like a focal point for the saying.
The Pixie Cottage Challenge #15 - using the sketch and Mother's Day or Special Lady theme.

Digital Tuesday Challenge #55 - April flowers or April showers

Cricut Cards Challenge - color challenge for a Mother's Day card  using the colors pink, green, & white.

Thanks for visiting and taking the time to leave a comment.

This is the sketch for Sweet Stop Sketches.  It is a sketch with a spin. You must use the sketch plus buttons and bows.

















Here is my card using the sketch with a spin. 
Digi is from Busy Beauties Boutique, she is colored with Sharpie markers and inkadinkado chalks.  My buttons are handmade, using a MS heart punch and UTEE. Cardstock is Recollections and background is Provo Craft. It came embossed already.  The flower bouquet is from Sandylion Essentials stickers. My angel's wings got treated with diamond stickles and the hearts and her lips got Papier glass finish in clear by Folkart.  Sorry about the lighting, but my colors are lilac and blue.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

POLLYCRAFT CHALLENGE

Hi all,
 Me again, and I'm entering another challenge. This time I'm enter the Pollycraft challenge. It is a color challenge this week. The colors are pink, brown, and your choice of green or yellow. I choose green. Somehow, I have become a victim of the colors pink and green.

Digi is from Beasy Beauties Boutique, Strawberry Lolita.  I colored her with sharpie markers and chalks by inkadinkado. I used a Pentel Milky gel roller in her hair for highlights.  I used diamond stickles to make her smile sparkle.  Sentiment is from inkadinkado, ribbon from Michael's, background is DCWV the glitter sweet matstack. Cardstock is Recollections, and Miss Lolita is pop dotted.

Thanks for looking,
Mary

Good evening all,
I'm enter this card in the Pixie Cottage challenge this week. It is a sketch and the use of buttons.

Supplies used: Recollections black cardstock, DCWV Le Cre'me matstack in 4.5" x 6.5" size. Just the perfect size for my cardmaking. This is flocked by the way!  The image of the bird bath is pop dotted and so is the sentiment.  The stamp is by inkadinkado. Pearls are by Recollections, buttons from my stash, EK Success Fleur De lis border punch, and lastly, I used a inkadinkado stamp for the sentiment which is done with gold perfect pearls.

Thanks for looking,
Mary
