Cupcards challenges for May

I found two challenges over at Cupcards To Go that I wanted to finish this weekend and make some birthday cards I needed to do.
 The first challenge I did was to use Ruffles on your project.  My take on this was to make a flower using my ruffled lace I had.  I took pictures of the steps since it came out so good.

 These were the supplies I used to make my own sticky back to hold the ruffled lace.  I used a 2" circle punch,  some 2 sided sticky paper, the ruffled lace, and some Doodlebug Bling.

Here is the flower before I put the center in.

Here is what the total card looks like altogether.

The second challenge is a sketch     

Here is my take on it:                                                                                          

Inspiring owl sketch for Sassy Lil Sketches

Wow, this month is really flying and it is already the 28th of May.  With that said I can say that it is reveal date at Sassy Lil Sketches.  I loved the sketch this month, because it let me use a really cute owl that was found on a cricut cartridge.  I used the negative and the positive in different colors and it worked.

Here is the sketch:                                                 

So the sketch is on the right side.  I was very fortunate that I got to use one of my favorite lines in Jillibean Soup.

Hope you enjoy my take on the sketch.

Nikki Sivils Card & Layout from sketch

I found this on Nikki Sivils blog and thought I should try it so this weekend I went scrapping and came up with this layout and card using the sketch posted.

These are the flowers in the corner so you can see them. I love how they matched the paper.

I did this sketch using the pictures of when my cousin and I went to Vegas in February.  No camera's were allowed inside so we took the pictures outside.  I used the Max & Mollie line along with Bling.  This was a perfect sketch for these pictures.

On this card sketch I also used Max & Molly along with a lot of black bling.  I put some flowers and that cute little "Stinker".

Hope you enjoyed these sketches, since I really did and the paper was perfect for my projects.

It's the 14th

Good Morning and it is the 14th so the new sketch is up at Sassy Lil Sketches.


Here it is:

Next I will show you my take on Cherie's sketch.  Come on over and play and link up so we can see what you can do.

Hope to see your creations and have a great day.
