"Cuddly Buddly's" Brand New Release "Wee Bee's Birthday" Card + 9 Challenges


Hello!
Glad you dropped by again!
I am so excited to show you my latest card! Kim McFarlane from "Cuddly Buddy" sent me three new release stamps to make marketing examples for her with. They are all from the new "Bee of Good Cheer" series by: Kim Sponaugle. They remind me of beautiful story book illustrations.
The first one I finished is "Wee Bee's Birthday". These images are also available in pre-colored 3D decoupage.



I used Bassill cardstock and "K & Co - Que Sera Sera" designer paper. Both are available @ "Cuddly Buddly".
I watercolored the stamped image then cut out pieces of a second image and popped them up with foam tape. I then added lots of colors of glitter and Crystal Effects.
I used zig zag and my all time fave leaf stitch around the edges. I then colored in the leaves on the stitching and added Stickles to them. This card is very bright and sparkly!



I am entering this card in the following challenges:


Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #18- “Child’s Play” – Create a card for a child and include a stamped image.
Done and done! ;)


Color Crate #24- “Pink, Orange, and Green”
Got all three with a couple of tiny accent colors. Hope that’s OK!


Creative Inspirations #14 – “Bling”
I have 7 different colors of Stickles and one of the possible “blings” was glitter.
I am in! ;)


My Time to Craft Challenge #71 – “Floral Frenzy” – Use flowers
Done that for sure! ;)


Creative Card Crew #21– “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”
These two cuties are having birthday cake. Can get more fun then that! LOL!

Paper Play Challenge #28 – “Dimension” – Add some
I have popped my image and have flowers and ribbon that add dimension also.

Stamp Something – “Paper Piece”
I have paper pieced parts of the image

Daring Card Makers – “Bejeweled Bliss” – Add lots of bling and sparkle.
Did that! : )

Pile It On Challenge #9 – “At least 3 flowers plus other challenges”
I combined 3 flowers to make the one in the upper left hand corner. There are also flowers all over the DP and a big one on the image itself.

Please leave a comment if you like it. You can leave one if you don't too! :(
Thanks again for looking!
Hugs,
