My Craft Spot Challenge #45-Shaped Birthday Cards

**CLICK HERE FOR MY 400 FOLLOWER GIVEAWAY!!!**


Hey everyone! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

I sure did! We went into Edmonton shopping and out to a Valentine's dinner as hubby was away for Valentines. I did have to work on Sunday, but that gave hubby a chance to spend some time with the kiddies
.

It's challenge time at My Craft Spot. This time it's challenge #45 Shaped Birthday Cards.

Make sure you head on over to the My Craft Spot blog to check out what the other DT members have made. Then make your own shaped birthday card and link up for your chance at a fabulous prize!

My son Tyler's birthday is on Thursday and he is a real gamer. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER!! He just  loves the Xbox! So I thought this card would be perfect for him.

Here's what I came up with....

Recipe:
Game Controller cut at 3 3/4 inches from Wrap it up Cartridge
Shimmer Paper - Recollections
Cardstock - Papertrey Ink
Outside Sentiment - My Craft Spot-Build a Valentine
Inside Sentiments - My Craft Spot-Inside & Out #2 and Sweet Sentiment #2

Also used atg gun, memento ink, versa mark ink, heat gun, clear embossing powder, stickles and glossy accents

 I checked the buttons on his controller to get the colors right. I embossed the sentiment on the front as it was shimmer paper and regular ink wouldn't stay put.

My Craft Spot Valentine Stamps Showcase

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great week.

 For the last couple of weeks the My Craft Spot Design Team has been showcasing Kimberly's new stamps. Hope you have been enjoying all the yummy Valentine inspiration.
I am soooo excited because today is my day to showcase Kimberly's new Valentine stamps! She has released 2 new sets.

They are:

They are so amazing and are for sale right now on Kimberly's blog . She also has some amazing twine, seam binding, bitty bags and crinkle ribbon. Along with her already released stamp sets. 

I had so much fun playing with the new stamps.
 Here are my projects.
This card is 5 3/4 x 5 3/4.

I colored this little cutie with my copics. 

 I colored the heart with my copics. I also used some Pink Bubblegum crinkle ribbon. Isn't it yummy!

I love these little heart stamps to decorate with.

For this one I made some of my own patterned paper with Kimberly's stamp sets. 

Just a few Hershey Hugs to say I am thinking about you. 

I made 20 of these for my co-workers. Just for a little treat. 

The original box was 2 x 2 and I thought it was too big for what I wanted. So I made the new ones 1 1/2 x 1 1/2. They are so much cuter! This was not my original design. I got the idea from Pink by Design.

My next little card was inspired by this little Wild Tilda!

 I inked around everything with memento rosebud ink.

 I used my copics to color her. I just love mini buttons! Don't you???

 I put glossy accents on her little bow, ears and toenails.

This sentiment goes purr-fectly with my little Tilda.

This background paper was initially for the front of the card. But I didn't like how much ink I had put onto the paper for the front, so I trashed it. When I was putting together the inside I thought that inked paper would be perfect. So, I dug it out of the bin and used it. LOL!

The next project is for my Cricut loving friends!! I have been neglecting her lately!
These are 4 x 4 cards. I used the Indie Art Cartridge for the lips cut at 2 3/4 inches.

 I used red glitter paper for the lips and added glossy accents to the white parts. I used some Valentine twist bakers twine. "Pucker Up" LOL!

I hope you enjoyed my projects today! If you want to know any of the specifics of any project, just leave me a comment. This post was so long already. LOL!

And now it's.........
