Emmy's challenge at SBS

Here is my card for the Bling it up challenge on http://simplybettychallenges.blogspot.com/ .  I did a Birthday card for my Emmy, she's 10 on Feb. 1 wow how the time flies.  I choose to use her favorite colors so pink, purple, and lime green (she also likes blue and orange and yellow and.....Lol ) For the white background card I used a paper that is not my most favorite but it has a ton of glitter on it, It's from an old walmart pack called Best occasions.  The purple and green are from a DCWV Christmas stack.  The pink I embossed with the cuttlebug then to the depressed areas added pink glitter glue, I also glittered up her wings shoes and headband.  I used another cuttlebug set to make the birthday present stamp at the bottom.  2 trims were used and that pink ribbon has so much bling to it Oh la la.  I took a chipboard flower and coated it with lt. pink then a darker pink glitter added a jewel brad and voila. 

Happy Early Birthday Baby You Are Amazing!

The challenge is Two is Better than One... use two images to create a love card, or it could be a Besties card the possibilities are endless with two images!  My project is not a card it is the top of a valentine gift box for my daughter, Emily!  I love to recycle so this was originally a shoe box.  I added the red pink and white paper( which is really for Christmas)  The pink with all the hearts to the left is a piece of the cardboard backing that came with the pink doily's I used behind Betty and Rio.  The sentiment was a freebie from digital delights by louby loo( hope I got that right)  I added lil red and white rhinestones over the dots on the sentiment, and white ones to the center of my red flowers.  With Emmy it's all about the bling lately. Lol  I also punched out the little hearts on the left with a MS punch, added two different ribbons, the one on the bottom with all the hearts is older and not sure where I got it and the Valentines Day one is from my local family dollar store.  Hope you like my recycled project.  I will be putting crafting supplies in it for her valentine present(shh don't tell)

Last challenge for the 12 days of Christmas

So for the last Challenge I decided to use Betty it only seems right.  She flies across the Christmas eve sky with her lil black helper delivering lovely, scary emo gifts to everyone!  My moon on the breast of the new fallen snow has some bling to it, and the ribbon along the bottom reminds us all that the naughty and nice list can change any time. Lol

Merry Christmas to Betty and the DT thank you so much for such a fun event.

And to everyone who played along thank you for all the wonderful inspiration I hope the holiday season finds you happy and safe!

SBS challenge 11 skully jolly christmas

Here is my rather late entry!  Always busy the last couple days of school before break, but lots of fun too!
So who decided to let the kids decorate by themselves?  You know they can't agree on anything :) Fun challenge I used Trim the tree Rio, Back to school Miller and Tangled Jude as the family kids. Rio is humming "deck the halls" Miller is late as usual and not too happy with Rio's choices, and while they argue poor lil Jude just wants a tree up so Santa will visit. Fun, fun, fun and skull and cross bones worthy situation!

Sbs challenge day 10

Here is my super quick card for this challenge.  I used Rio for this one and she was being an attention diva so her fellow scare-o-lers somehow didn't make it onto the card.( :)OK so I spent the last 2days painting the backdrop for our choir program.  No other parents cared to help out so I was alone except for a lil help from the choir teacher herself.  So I whipped this lil card up in the last 2hrs. Sorry for it's simplicity I do kind of like how she turned out though.)  I colored her with sharpies, added sheet music to her hands and notes around her.  Her friend cat, and spider came scare-o-ling with her.  She is placed on pink paper embossed with snowflakes which I then used a dauber with white pigment ink over top the embossing to make it pop.  I frosted the edges of the card and background paper. Like I said quick but I kinda like how she turned out.

Day 9 at SBS Ghost of Christmas Past

Here is my next entry, I choose to use Mercius from the Steampunk line.  I gotta say that if Jacob Marley looked like this I might just welcome a visit. Hehehe. Anyway I colored my image with pencils this time an used my sharpies to outline.  I wanted a dark outline with light colors as if his form was wispy.  I also wanted a 3d look to the mirror as if he was reaching out.  I colored a second image cut out only the arms and attached it to the outside of the mirror which is cut from the french manor cartridge at 4and a half ".  Drippy goo is used on the sparkle white paper behind the image on the inside, and a ghost punch on the corners of the bronze paper.  I used the same elastic ribbon to camouflage the mirror hole on the inside that I used on the outside with black ribbon roses.  I used a few beads and some beading wire to make the chains Marley has to carry. Lots of pics.
