A bottle of bubbly

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday!

Today starts a new challenge at Crafty Friends and the theme is... 

New Beginnings!

Our wonderful sponsor is Crafty Sentiments...  

and my card features the adorable Stanley Happy Days image. It's colored with Copics and the sentiment is from Hero Arts. I used MFT dies for the stitched rounded rectangle, stitched circle and fishtail flag. I used a Memory Box die for the tiny champagne glasses and the paper is from Kaisercraft... to finish it up I added Nuvo Crystal Drops.

Good morning everyone!

It's time for a new challenge at Creatalicious and this month the theme is...

more than ONE fold.

We have two fabulous sponsors this month- Simon Says Stamp and Crafty Sentiments. I decided to make a circle easel card featuring Herbie from Crafty Sentiments... he's colored with Copics, fussy cut out and then I added a pair of orange glasses using a Taylored Expressions die... I love his glasses! :)
The background is embossed with a Paper Studio folder, I used MFT dies for the Pierced Fishtail Flags and Stitched Circles. The 'awesome' die is from Simon Says Stamp- originally (Pawsome) and I used a Sizzix die & MFT die the rest of the sentiment. The flowers were created with a Joy Craft die & small flower punch... added some liquid pearls to the center of the flowers and there you have it!
