Laura's Snowboardabella Bday


I needed a card for my girlfriends Bday as I see her tonight for drinks. I was scrambling this morning to get one made for her. She's a snowboarding girl and I found this image I had stamped when I borrowed Mel's Bella's. How perfect! She loves pinks, so of course I had to get out the pinks and I just love my blues.
Ingredients:
Stamps - Snowboardabella, Happy Bday from Princess SU set
Papers - Bo Bunny - Holiday Cheer PP, Pink Pir., Soft sky, baja breeze, WW
Inks - SU blk, Pink Pir, Soft sky, baja breeze with blender pens
Accessories - SU markers, snowflake punches, circle punch, 3 different ribbons, lily white flock, white perfect puff and pink shimmerz.
It's been forever since I was out at a pub. Shall be a good time! Have a great weekend crafting! Kim

Pengie Luvs You!

A LSS had a 25% off sale this past weekend. I had gotten a $50 visa gift card from two great friends, so I thought I'd go searching for something new to play with. I got the nesties label 2, pink shimmers, Bo Bunny Sweetie Pie Swoon and Back to Basics papers, 3 Great Impressions Vday stamps and a couple yards of ribbon. Now, I'm going Vday card crazy. I also had just boughten the Brilliance Graphite Black ink pad on Friday. Wow, does it ever work well!

Bella Birthday Balloons

A lady at my Mom's work is wanting me to make her cards and I have felt so burned out from Xmas cards, but I finally stepped into the dungeon today. It felt good to do some colouring. I really want to take the plunge into copic markers this year. What colours to start with, is my scare and to use them properly.
I got this cute Bella image from a Bella exchange with Beth (scrappin beth) on SCS. Great way to get a variety of Bella's without having to purchase them all. Hey, Beth.. time to do another one? :o)
My dear and talented friend Mel (Mel stampz) made these foam flowers, paper flowers, brads, a little box to hold the foam flowers and the packaging that the little flower container was in. I need to take a picture of them to show her great talent.
I matched up the colours in the flowers with SU colours, added a paisley cuttlebug folder and a sentiment.
My question: What would you pay for this card w/ envelope? I am having a hard time pricing.
Now to get to making my girls 6 Bday party invites. I really want to keep them simple, but still look decent. Hmm...
Happy New Year to all of you and wishing you a fabulously creative year!
