Sweet Teddy- Challenge for Slumber cards


This is my card for a challenge on Slumber cards where you have to use Liliac on your cards. Anywhere on your cards and any image. So this is my take, the cool whip is done by doing embossing powder-white, twice; to make the glass I used the crystal effects.

Pink and Black Cards



These cards I did in pink and black except the images are the same, but not the embellishments. As you can see i used different embellishments on both types of cards. The big flower has 4 flowers besides a black brad on it. The small flower are paper flowers with black brads. Both have the black and white dotted ribbon on it.I also used a red gel pen on the small heart and the lips.

Pinki and Green


For this card I decided on the these colors. For my mat I took my ink pad and went around it for a little color. The clower is a stencil which I embossed and then I put red chalk on. I then backed it 3/4 of the way with green cardstock and grren and pink ribbon and a green button. At the bottom as you can see is the same ribbon and a button.

Valentines


Here is another valentines card that I did. I stamped the hearts in different inks in the frame which I also stamped in different inks also. The heart in the center is a wooden heart which I put glitter glue on. The I Love You is a ransom letters stamps with red and pink ink. Then I just added a sheer heart ribbon . As you can see the results of my card this is what I got.
