For You! 8-)

Hi All! Happy Friday to you! Can't believe I haven't posted a single thing since this past Monday! Just Terrible, I tell ya! 8-) Well, I think since I posted almost every day of last week that I thought I would slow down the pace just a bit this week to balance it out some.. Lol... Today I just have Super quick post to share one of my latest creations and play along with the 2nd week of Cupcake's Creations CR84FN #39, while I was at it....

I created this fun little Fall card for my Mom's Birthday, sure hope she has received it by now.. I usually make her some type of floral card, and thought I would do something a bit more whimsical this time for a change.. She's not really into anything frilly or super girly, so I kept it pretty simple and I kept the Fall colors that she loves so much. I hope she likes it. 

I stamped my Fun little I/O Spooky Cupcake image by Leigh Hannan onto Flourishes Classic White with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored it up with my trusty Copics. I cut out and layered my cupcake with the help of my Classic Circles and Scalloped Circles Nesties sets. I shaded my image with a touch of Antique Linen Distress Ink while my die was still in place and then popped my matted Cupcake up with a few dimensionals.  For my Mats and BG layers I chose a combination of some fun dp's from K & Co., Bo Bunny, and a small strip from MME as well. To finish it all up, I stamped my I/O sentiment directly onto my BG with Memento Tuxedo Black, added a few tiny gold gems, a touch of Stardust Stickles, some cheery yellow ribbon, and a cute little button all tied up with some Yummy bakers twine from  MAD Stamper Finds!.. Pretty easy peasy, huh... 8-)

Hope you all have a Fantastic day & thanks so much for dropping in!
Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Shannon,
    I feel terrible. I haven't been to your blog in quite some time and I apologize. I suppose you could spend an entire looking at cards and blogs and still not get to everyone's that you like. Just stopped in to say hi and get some inspiration. My muse seems to be hiding behind dust bunnies. I hate to disturb them, they look so cute sleeping. ;) So, I thought I'd pop in here real quick and say hi,'hi!' and see what you've been up to.
    Glad I did!
    Hugs,
    Lisa xx
