Weekly card sketch Paper Craft Crew #159 challenge - Seeing stars!

Welcome to the weekly Card Sketch #159 with the Paper Craft Crew!  We look forward to seeing your creations this week.

 Now, for some exciting news (at least we hope it is exciting and that you'll be as excited as we are…), the Paper Craft Crew is going to be mixing things up a bit by throwing in some different challenges.

 

Starting in September, the Paper Craft Crew will be adding in a new challenge.  The plan is to offer a "non-sketch" challenge every 3rd or 4th week such as a Tic-Tac-Toe, color or theme challenge.  We really think you'll have fun with this little change up!

A perfect cardmaking day at Fall Fest 2015

What a fun day I had this weekend at the Arizona stamping event Fall Fest that Diana and Rhonda put on!  We received lots of Stampin' Up cardmaking/stamping items in our bags and even had lunch:

I actually completed all of my projects (except for some fussy cutting and coloring) and took some pictures that I can share with you:

 They collected stuffed animals for a donation:

 There were lots of great cards that other attendees shared of course!  Here are a few photos of some of them:

It was a perfect cardmaking day and the time just flew by!  

Thanks Diana and Rhonda for another wonderful event!!

 

A meowy birthday card

I made up a belated birthday card for a special girl who just got a ragdoll kitten.  

The Cherry on Top designer series paper stack from Stampin' Up is perfect for making birthday cards!  I used the balloons, cake slice, and cupcake papers.

I cut out two of the cupcakes on the cupcake design paper and embellished them with gold glitter, which is also sprinkled throughout the card - the sequins, cat's collar, candles, and greeting.

I also used the candles paper on the inside of the card:

Since my birthday girl likes Hello, Kitty, she should love her card, don't you think?!

You can order any of these Stampin' Up products in my online store!
