Happy Birthday - Yummy Treat

My brother-in-law's birthday was in August.  

I did get his card to him but have been down in health so get ready because here come a few none challenge cards.

My brother-in-law is in construction but I'd done enough work related cards and then I remembered he has a strong yen for ice cream.

I purchased this digi image from "The Paper Shelter".  If you haven't been there you really need to.

This was how it came out (trying to keep it for a man).

He loved it and immediately told my Sister to get in the car so they could go get ice cream.

Card Recipe:

Kraft colored card

Polka dots from R'collections

Fuchsia, pink and white glimmer sequins.

It was a fun card to create.

Pearly Sparkles May.

 Things with Wings

I recently have been purchasing new supplies and I used one of my favorites on this card.

 

This card uses a combination of embossing folder and die.

The die is a new "Stampin' Up" called "Dragonfly Dreams" 

The dragonfly was embossed clear and sprinkled with 

Ultra Fine glitter.

The embossed paper was sanded to bring out all the fine elements.

You can find Pearly Sparkles here.

Be sure to come by and enter the contest or just get some inspiration.
