Happy Bird Day to You!

Hi Crafty Friends,

It's my design team day for Paper Crafting World.

  I spent several years designing for Melin's Digi team so it's always fun to pick one of her cute digi files "for old time's sake!"

I chose the Toucan Happy Bird Day DS file for today's project.  It's such a happy image and so much fun to color.

I used Copic markers for the image and gel pens for the sentiment (comes with the file.)
I used a Martha Stewart cupcake border punch and the balloon bottom border die from Jaded Blossom's Border Dies 2.  I also used JB's Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut our the image.  Some baker's twine and several sequins finished the card.

Thanks so much for stopping in today.

A Big Rose Hello

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today I'd like  to share the Design Team card I made using the BG Rose DS file from Paper Crafting World.  I've been on a craft room clean and purge kick and in doing so I've gone through all of my paper stacks.  I love the Chateau Lavender stack by DCWV and knew I wanted to use it for this card.  I found a page that I loved but had to actually paper piece to get the parts that I wanted.  I hope you like the results.

Here's the file that you'll find at PCW:
