Wish Upon A Star

This is being shared on this fortnight's "ATG W/opt. add ribbon" challenge over at Creatalicious Challenges.

 This card was made for one of my co-worker's birthdays, one of her answers when asking about what she does for fun was "Stargazing".  She said she loves all colors of blue.  I found this adorable image from a pack I have from Lili Of The Valley called Mid Summer's Night (link is for the digi stamp itself, I can't find where I purchased the pack from) and HAD to use it!!  I added some roses, blue gems, blue ribbon and tons of stars.  I created my own sentiment and used a fun tiny clothes pen to hold it into the place I wanted it to be.  The clothes pen was originally white, I used a Shortbread colored shimmer brush from CTMH to color it.  I used a Sapphire Shimmer Brush over the two stars and a clear shimmer brush over the stars, moon and winges on the image.

Poison Ivy with a Four-Leave Clover

 Happy Saturday!  It's just a week away (minus a day), you need to wear GREEN!!  I recently read somewhere that the reason you need to wear green is so the leprechauns don't see you.  If you don't wear green on St. Patrick's Day, they can see you and will pinch you!  Well, who am I to argue with so many years of tradition?  😉

This fun fold was made using a Rick St. Dennis image (the clover pot) and an image from Fearyink (the girl leprechaun).  This funfold was just done live over at Dawns Live on Youtube - HERE.  Obviously she used totally different papers and things...awesome papers!!  I chose to do a joke using a strip of transparency film with the 'punch line' hidden until you open the funfold.

It is difficult to see in the pictures, but I did use a gold shimmer brush on the four leaf clovers on the right side of the card and on the gold coins.  I used a clear shimmer brush on the two pots.

Love & Friendship

 This card was made using the new release called Dogwood Blooms.  I also used a fun embossing folder that I used a gold pen on for the center of the flowers.  I added a bow.  Nothing like sweet and simple, which is all one needs on a sympathy card.  Right?

Here is the set:

Count Your Friends

 For the new challenge over at QKR Stampede I made a fun baby mouse card.  I used 2 images and a sentiment.  They are All Tucked In, Mouse and Count Your Friends.  I used a fun little backdrop that I cut the the top of the stuffed animals from in order to make it appear to leaning on the match box bed.  I added a bow and called it good!
