       This is my second card posted as of the Dressy Girls, aka DTs, for the All Dressed Up Stamps FB Challenge Team! This card features an adorable digi from “New Release Inspiration” Day for artist Wendy Burns latest creations.

      I was thrilled to be given the digi, “Spring Hugs” and decided to use mainly pretty pastel colors to give the card a Spring vibe! Pairing the digi with delicate daisy paper and happy sentiments help to create a wonderful Easter card. (I embellished the card with satin ribbon plus fussy-cut several little daisies to drape around the front sentiment

     I’m entering this card into several challenges including Allsorts Challenge: Optional theme of Romance and/or Music (my husband loves gingerbread. I usually only make gingerbread cookies at Christmas but I think I’ll bake up a batch for Valentine’s Day this year. FYI- at our house romance usually involves food!)

       This card features a beautiful Moondrea Designs digi named “Lilly Love Pierrot.” The card's color scheme (B&W& shades of red), plus Lilly’s makeup, is inspired by a bit of web research on female Pierrot’s. I also added some bling… because most performers like a little sparkle!

       I’m entering this card into several challenges including Park Hopping-My Happy Place (This is z favorite challenges as it’s introduced me to many new amusement parks. I visited the alphabetized inspiration listing that sponsor Makira offers at this wonderful challenge site, and found a listing for “Valentines “at Tokyo Disney, where I think that this beautiful Lilly Pierrot is perfectly dressed for a party at the Queen of Hearts café.)

     This last card is for the current challenge at The Paper Shelter, “Make Your Own Background.”  I wanted to make a winter-themed card, so looked for an image to serve as my inspiration/focal point!  A cute little digi from The Paper Shelter named “Well Wrapped Up” was the perfect fit. Since I find fussy-cutting to be relaxing, I dug out some patterned paper that I’ve had from when I tried my hand at scrapbooking about 20 years ago and started cutting out a bunch of winter gloves, scarves, and hats. After using them to decorate the front of the card. I adapted a pop-up hug fold I found on a FB reel to help it look like the well-wrapped cutie is reaching out for a hug!

Supplies: 

·   Digi- The Paper Shelter (Well Wrapped Up)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Pop-up Hug fold adapted from the one found HERE

·   Front Sentiment “Thinking of You”- from Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Beachside Bliss)

·   Inside Sentiment “You Warm my Heart” from Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Christmas Cheers)

·   Sookwang double-sided tape- Available from several sources on the web.

·   All other misc. items and tools from my stash.
