Anything goes at QKR Stampede

Hello and happy Friday!
Today we have a new challenge at QKR Stampede and it's a favorite one:

ANYTHING GOES!!!!!!!

I chose to make a Valentines/Friendship card:

I used the image Secrets (digi 14312) and the sentiment Secrets and friends (digi 14713)  and colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils. I cut it with Labels2 Spellbinders die and made the same for the purple mat and the same with the sentiment.

I saw this color combo in another blog and wanted to try it: purple/orange. I used 2 different colors from the Circles dp collection by Alt and purple cardstock for the mat.

As embelishments I used a hearted purple ribbon and made also a bow and to decorate the bow I used a white heart with some purple embossing thread (DMC). I also used some purple gems for a corner.

New Baby Boy

Hello and happy Thursday!
One friend of mine just had her first baby boy and as I had to rush to know him, I made a fast/lazy card:

The image is a precolored one that I found after googleing "baby boy" and thought I can be lazy and not coloring today.

I made a one layer card, so I printed on the card blanc. The I added with foam tape the sentiment (Netty's cards) with a small bow (skyblue ribbon) and then I made a big bow using blue gingham ribbon.

I made one more Valentines' day card that I would like to show you:

The image is by The Greeting Farm. I colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils a while ago and cut it out. I placed it on a double cardstock mat (white/black) cut with a circle die (Sizzix).

For the background I used a skyblue cardstock and a Snowflakes embossing/stencil folder (Spillbinders) and a turquoise ink pad, I think it looks good!

I want to show you what I did for today challenge at Catch the Bug: Just kidding around make a birthday project for kids!

I colored the image with markers and Koh.i.noor aquarelable pencils. I used glitter for the cake's frosting. I cut with an oval die and made the same for the blue cardstock mat.

I used Folia paper for the background and the sentiment is from Create with TLC and placed it on one corner as part of the party decoration of the paper.

The candle ribbon is by Crafty Ribbons. I made some faux stitches around the card with a blue glittered pen. I tried to make a CAS card because kids don´t need to much stuff on it, but they like fun images and lots of colors. I hope you like it!
