SURPRISE!

Today I am posting a card that I made to add to my Birthday Stash for my grandchildren. I had recently received a new stamp set from MFT, Beary Special Birthday which also had matching Die-namics. My last post also used this set and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I will be linking this over on two Blogs today, The Paper Players and Crafty Animals.

PRODUCTS USED:

Beary Special Birthday w/die

Retired SU Embossing Folder- Large Circles

MFT Birthday Brights 6x6 Paper Pad

SU Stitched Shapes, MFT Skinny Strips, MFT A2 Stitched Rectangles

Prismacolor Pencils to color Bear

That will be it for today. I hope you have a great remainder of the week.

Blessings, Bernie B

Sending Birthday Bear Hugs

 I'm here tonight posting a card that I will be linking over at CAS C&S # 443 for their recent challenge. I just received this stamp set and dies from MFT Beary Special Birthday. I have several GC who will be celebrating Birthdays in several months and this set will be put to good use. I love the little bears in this recent set and the dies leave very slim line around the outside of the image. Definitely a win-win.

PRODUCTS USED:

MFT Beary Special Birthday stamp/ sentiment/ matching die-namics

Prismacolor Pencils

Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Spun Sugar

Wink of Stella on Cake Icing

MFT Watercolor Wash Free Form Stencil

MFT Stitched Fishtail Die-namics

That will be all for this evening. Have a blessed weekend!

Put on Your Party Hat

 Hello! I'm here today with a quick post. I just finished a Birthday card that I will be giving to one of my grandsons whose birthday is coming up next week. 

I haven't created very much in a long time. I definitely lost my Mojo. I'm hoping this card will get me out of my crafting slump. I will be adding this over at CAS C&S # 441for their recent challenge. This will be definitely under the wire entry.

Although I didn't add the black enamel dots, I will be adding them.

I selected an image from MFT - Picture Perfect Party Animals

The sentiment is from MFT Bitty Birthday Wishes

MFT Stitched Basic Edges

MFT Paper Pad 6x6 Birthday Brights

Various Prismacolor Pencils blended with Gamasol

That will be it for now. Have a good evening!

Blessings, Bernie B

Congratulations!

Just a quick drop by today. I will not be posting this on any blog challenges.

This is a card I just created for my niece and her future husband who will be married next weekend. We will be attending that wedding and are planning on visiting other families as part of the trip. I'll be gone for several weeks so there will be NO Craftiness going on. Although we will be driving many miles, it will so be wonderful to see family we haven't seen in 2 years!

You're How Old?

 

I have been working on several cards this week, but just finished this particular one yesterday. I selected to post one that I am sending to my 14-year-old Granddaughter whose birthday is this week. It's hard to believe she is 14 thus the sentiment on the card. Using the CAS C&S sketch challenge for this week helped me quickly put this one together. The harder part was deciding on colours. I knew I wanted to use MFT Sensational Stitched Blooms and had to find what floral dies in the set would allow me to use 4 in a row as the sketch showed. I keep it monochromatic using SU Gingham Gala 6x6 DSP and Grapefruit  Grove CS which matched the gingham paper. The sentiment is by MFT Bitty Birthday Wishes stamped in Versafine Black ink. The black dots are from SU.

This will be all for today. We have family coming over for dinner and I still have to clean up a very messy craft desk!

Have a blessed week!

Blessings, Bernadette
