April Classic Design Challenge : Cute Bee Digis

 Hello again crafty friends!! Are you as happy as I am that it's April?! It's time for another Classic Challenge! 

This month we are featuring the prettiest digi stamps from Cute Bee Digis. There are SO MANY cute and pretty digi designs to choose from! But I specifically chose Catherine Holding Tulips because it just looked so spring-like and had a pretty Easter outfit. Catherine looks like she just got back from her Sunday Easter service :)

I printed out the image and colored it in with Copics and cut the image out with Lawn Fawn "Small Stitched Rounded Rectangle Stackables" and then stamped my sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps "He Is Risen" stamp set. I used Mintay Papers Scalloped A2 sized card base, and cut my two design papers using MFT Double and Single Stitched dies to matt my main image. before I added my silk and velvet ribbons, I edged my main image and pink background paper with Spectrum Noir's Blush Metallic paint markers, and added some candy enamel dots.

I love how fresh and springy the card turned out. I really love coloring in digi stamps and finding new ones like the ones Cute Bee Digis offers, to my stamp catalog!! Thank you for visiting my blog and joining the Classic Design Team Monthly Challenge! I'll see you next month! :)

April Beautiful Blossoms Challenge : Thinking of You

 Hello and welcome back to another wonderful Blossoms Challenge! Have you been enjoying the team's examples and monthly inspiration photos this year? I hope so, it's been truly a fun challenge every month to come up with a card to inspire you!

Speaking of, here is this month's inspiration photo.

So pretty, right?! I enjoy Daisy's and the pretty colors shown in this photo. I don't have any Daisy stamps, but I chose something as close as possible to the look of one.

I stamped out My Favorite Thing's "Flowers in Bloom" stamp and cut it out with the coordinating die, then colored it in with Copics. I cut out a white frame using Papertrey's April die and layered it over MFT's "Orange Sherbet" paper cut out using MFT's A2 Stitched Rectangular Stax Set 1. I stamped out my sentiment from Honey Bee's "Perfect Sentiments" set, then added a dark purple cardstock frame from Core'dinations ColorCore collection. Then I finished the whole look by adding some gems from Spellbinders in their "Orchid" collection.

Honestly, I was trying to find a light purple cardstock to match the flowers and the purple in the cardstock, but I honestly couldn't find anything in my stash!! I'm shocked! I honestly thought I had ALL shades of cardstock in my stash, but it looks like I don't! LOL! Oh well, It still turned out nice.

I hope this card inspired you for this month's challenge. I can't wait to see all of your creations, and until next month, keep crafting and I'll be back with another card inspiration! :)
