Having fun...

making cards this week! The rain has kept me indoors so I have taken advantage and worked on some cards. Got lots of birthday coming up so gotta be prepared! Both were done for challenges over at SCS.

This first card was for a challenge to create a Clean & Simple Birthday card. Of course, I pulled out my Crazy for Cupcakes stamp set for this one! One of my favorite SU! sets.

Stamp Set: SU! Crazy for Cupcakes

Paper: SU! Cardstock (Tangerine, Whisper White), Chatterbox PP

Inks: SU! Classic Ink (Basic Brown, Pretty in Pink, Pumpkin Pie), SU! Stampin' Pastels

This next card was for this week's SCS sketch challenge. I really like this sketch and know I'll be using it again!

These next two cards, I translated one of the sentiments from the Verve "Because of You" Set to Spanish!

Not as much fun as stamping the sentiment though.
