Hybrid My Digital Studio Happy Birthday

Today I have a Birthday card to share with you.  I used My Digital Studio to design the card layout and create the sentiment.  The cupcake is stamped on colored card stock and paper pieced to the white card stock.  It was not easy to cut that little heart out, but it does look cute.





Supplies

Stamps:   Just Add Cake; Cupcake Trio
Paper: Strawberry Slush; Costal Cabana; Kraft; PTI White
Ink: Chocolate chip
Accessories: Early Espresso Bakers Twine; Circle Punch
Techniques: Digital Stamping



Thanks for stopping by and checking out my card today!


I'm playing along with the Colour Q and CAS(E) this Sketch Challenges.  The links for these challenges are here:

Happy New Year 2015 - Virginia's View Challenge # 11


Happy New Year 2015!!!

Today I have two cards to share with you. Both cards are for the Virginia's View Challenge # 11 Clean Slate.  You can find the challenge linked to the photo at the bottom of the page if you'd like to play along.

The layout for this card was inspired by a card I designed a couple years ago (Deepest Sympathy).   I changed it up by making it white on white, took out some butterflies, added pearls, and used a Happy Anniversary sentiment.




I also did a sympathy version of this card.  The only difference is there are a few extra butterflies and the sentiment is for sympathy.


While I don't make "resolutions" at the new year I have made a couple "goals".  The difference I see between resolutions and goals is having a plan to get to the goal.  My biggest goal for 2015 is to send out more cards to my family and friends.  This will require planning in advance.  I've already designed some cards and picked up some stamps for January birthdays so I have a good start on my goal.
