Go Braless ?!?

Well this is the last card for the day.  I used a stamped image that I had done with a friend's stamp from Dolly mamas.  I thought this was very fitting for the humor challenge that I wanted to enter.  And yes I'm at the age where the wrinkles are starting to show... lol so should I do what she says?!?  Not sure I'm ready to go that far in the battle against wrinkles lol.

It's fun using somebody else's stamp! ;)  And it's such a fun image to work with.

I'm entering it in the following challenges:

• The poodles parlour - B-Day card
• Catch the bug - Humor

Bonne soirée à tous c'est terminé pour moi pour aujourd'hui ;)

I'm really happy with my 2nd card of the day.  Took a long time to make but it turned out really good.  I needed to copy one of the beautiful Kraftinkimmiestamps cards this is the one I chose to copy.... it was hard to choose because they were all pretty!  So I chose Amanda's card:


Here is my take on this:

To make it I used the following:

• My EK Daisy punch
• Papers from K&Cie - Wild raspberry (fitting name for this card) and Colorbok textured cardstock - both were purchased at Winners
• And of course my great Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp Rebecca Raspberry

I'm really happy with my result ;)))

I'm entering it in the following challenges:

• Kraftin kimmie stamps - copy a card
• All sorts challenge - say it with flowers (one of the paper as flowers but mostly the sign that says it all is a flower)
• Crafty catz weekly - mother's day card

Hope you like my take on this card.

Afin de compléter le défi de Kraftin' Kimmie, je devais copier une carte.  Vous pouvez voir en début la carte que j'ai copié.

b-day card

We always need B-Day card.  I noticed that I could enter 2 more times in the Thepoodlesparlour so that made me decide to do more cards ;)  I needed the inspiration.  So many possibilitites ;)

I used for this card the same technique that I used in one of yesterday's blog with the inking of the embossing folder.

To make this card I used:

• Happy b-day embossing folder from cuttlebug as well as embossing letters (my 4 kids gave me those for my b-day and this is the 1st time that I used them ;) )
• A nestabilitie die
• The stamp is from Darcie's JCS148

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

The poodles parlour -B-Day card

Love to create - monochromatic color scheme for the blue

The pink elephant - "Lets See Those Layers" (Your card must include at least 3 layers)

Now I'm going back to more creating ;)

On a toujours besoin de nouvelles cartes de fête.  J'ai donc profité de ces défis pour en faire une nouvelle.

A+

Mother's day card

This morning I wanted to try out a new technique that I saw on this fabulous website I really {heart} this site for all the new techniques that I get to try : Split coast stampers

Once I embossed in green... I figured that hey there's a few challenges that I could enter this in.  And I used my brand new little butterflies bought at Srapenmasse on Wednesday.Here's my little creation:

So to make this I used a cuttlebug embossing folder with green distress ink and cardstock from Dollarama, and my little butterflies are made with  Doilies & Exotic Dies - Exotic butterfly small (but hard to make the holes in the wings I believe the card stock might have been too thick or using my cuttlebug was not the best tool for this).

Here are the challenges that I will enter with this card:
Flutter by wednesdays - Spring time and use of butterflies
Divas by design challenge - Use favorite things (here I used my embossing folder from Cuttlebug love those as well as the distress ink to make the green background and I used the embossing technique for the mother's day sign)
Totally stampalicious - Spring design
Paper sundaes - Green
Card crafters circle - orange & green
Simon says stamps - mother's day

Hope you like my little creation.  I will definetly be back with more today ;)  Last day of spring break here and my vacation :(  went by tooo fast but will definetly use this time to craft.

Voici une petite carte que j'ai fait afin d'utiliser une nouvelle technique que j'ai apprise en regardant un site internet.  Tellement agréable d'apprendre des nouvelles choses.
