Tammy from Creatively Me is our sponsor this month and this is the fab prize she is offering to our May winner.
I love the colours in the challenge prompt photo but I went with the balloons as inspiration for my card. I bought the SU! Owl Occasions stamp set and have only used it for Christmas cards so far - one of the justifications I voiced for buying the set was that it could be used year round!
Anyway, I remembered the set contained a balloon and I had the idea to have the owl on the branch with a bunch of balloons. Then I felt the branch needed leaves and then some flowers and then it would be fun for the owl to have the party bunting hanging from the branch and then I added presents too! It all started with the balloons and went on from there - can you tell I had LOTS of fun making this card?! The blue, green and red balloons were fussy cut and I popped the green one up. I stamped the bunting in Crumb Cake ink and then stamped again in the five colours I'd used for the balloons and I cut out each letter flag and glued them on top. I felt the Crumb Cake ink was a bit pale for the string so I went over it with a Soft Suede marker. The presents were fussy cut and I popped the smaller one up. After stamping the sentiment I added yellow gems to the owl's eyes and popped him up too. I added punched 1/4" coloured circles to the die cut red scalloped border to finish off the front.
Here's the inside and the envelope. I stamped the balloons and stamped and fussy cut the bunting. Lastly I stamped the sentiment - ack, I got an inky splodge! Luckily, I hadn't glued the panel inside. Never mind, I started again - stupidly doing everything in the same order - after I'd stamped the sentiment there was another inky splodge! I'd somehow got ink on the underside of my Stamp-a-ma-jig handle. I did have a very messy desk and I'd left some ink pads open - ooops, not a good idea! After cleaning the handle I attempted the inside panel for the third time - and yay, success! I'm not having QUITE so much fun now at this point in the proceedings - I still have the envelope to decorate though, hmmmm, should I stamp something on the envelope? Erm, no, I just used patterned paper on the envelope flap - much safer!
Despite the problems I like how this bright and happy little number turned out! I'd love to see what you make so I'm hoping you'll play along with our challenge this week. May you have smooth stamping with no inky smudges!

CAS Poinsettia Trio Merry Christmas Card - 52 {C}CT May Colour Challenge
This week at 52 {C}CT we have a fab colour combo challenge for you. We want to see just those two colours this week so red and white only in your entries please!
Supplies:
Stamps: Poinsettia from Personal Impressions, Hero Arts 'Holiday Cheer' clear set
CS: PaperMania white square card blank
Patterned paper: Bo Bunny 'Wild Berry' & 'Harvest' Double Dot papers
Ink: VersaMark, SU! Real Red
Tools: heat tool, paper piercer
Embellishments & accessories: white embossing powder, white brads, glue dots
I love red and white together, it's so crisp! I went with a CAS, no layers, card design. It may be a CAS design but it certainly wasn't quick, there was a lot of stamping, heat embossing and fussy cutting involved! I inked the poinsettia with VersaMark, stamped several times onto Bo Bunny red Double Dot papers, heat embossed with white powder and got busy fussy cutting. I attached the layers of each poinsettia together with a white brad in the flower centre. I masked the sentiment before inking and stamping as I only wanted part of it on the card front. I attached the poinsettias to the card front with large glue dots to finish the front.
I masked the sentiment again and stamped just the portion I wanted inside the card and stamped more poinsettias.
Yet more poinsettias on the front of the envelope!
I hope you'll add yet another Christmas card to your stash by playing along with our colour challenge at 52 {C}CT this week. Remember to check out the other DT member's cards as they'll have lots to inspire you! I'm looking forward to seeing your festive red and white cards!

Blooms & French Foliage Note Card
We're spending the rest of the day out with our wonderful friends Debs and Mike and I gave them this card as a thank you for my birthday gift. I've been meaning to give this card to them for ages but I keep forgetting - I'm at that age you know!
I stamped the French Script stamp in Crumb Cake ink onto the Very Vanilla panel and then stamped the flower from the Blooming with Kindness set in Rose Red ink three times without re-inking. I stamped the postmark and a few splatters, sponged the edges and added the Rose Red seam binding ribbon and antique brad. I layered the Very Vanilla panel onto Rose Red and Soft Suede mats, added brads at the corners and mounted the whole layer onto a 5 1/4" square Crumb Cake card base. I stamped three leaves, inking first with Crumb Cake ink and then adding some Rose Red ink with a sponge dauber. I fussy cut the leaves, sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink and popped them up, tucking the bottom of the leaves behind the ribbon. Lastly I spritzed the entire card front with Perfect Pearls Cappuccino mist.
Here's the inside and envelope with more blooms and French Foliage stamped images. Hmmm, I may have overdone the splatters on the inside, aside from that, I'm happy how this card turned out! Debs and Mike loved the card so that's good! Apart from a paper piercer for the brads I didn't use any tools, there was just lots of stamping. It's good to do just the basics sometimes!

Punch Art Teddy Bear Congratulations Card
This congratulations card is for Zoe who recently became Mum to baby Jack. I thought a punch art teddy bear would be great for a baby card - thanks so much to Joanne for the instructions!
I used the Owl Builder, 3/4" circle and 1/2" circle punches to make the bear. I inked the edges of all the Crumb Cake pieces with Soft Suede ink and then assembled teddy. I stamped the border from the Summer Silhouettes set onto Pool Party CS with Pool Party ink. The border wasn't long enough so I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig and stamped twice in order to extend the border. I stamped the sentiment, glued the Pool Party panel to the Very Vanilla panel, added a narrow Early Espresso CS strip and layered onto an Espresso mat. I tucked the bottom of the teddy behind the Pool Party panel and used Dimensionals to pop up his body and head. I added the ribbon and buttons and glued the Espresso panel to the 4 3/4" square Crumb Cake card base. I applied Crystal Effects to the eyes and heart so they're raised and glossy.
Here's the inside of the card with an oldie but goodie baby card sentiment, some dotty Pool Party paper and a couple of glossy hearts.
I decided to make an envelope from Crumb Cake CS to match the card. To make a 5" square envelope I cut the CS 8" square and used the Simply Scored and Diagonal Plate to score on all four sides at 3 5/8". I glued a stamped and punched label to the front of the envelope.
Here's the back of the envelope with Pool Party dotty paper on the flap and an office envelope type closure made with punched circles, brads and linen thread.
My very sweet friend and neighbour Kath is always knitting baby clothes and I asked if I could commission her to make something for Zoe's baby. Kath knitted a jumper from a pattern I chose, oh my word, the wool is SO soft and fluffy, I just kept picking the jumper up and feeling it! In the end I had to wrap it up as it's white and I didn't want to risk getting it grubby before I'd handed it over to Zoe!
Supplies:
Stamps: SU! 'Sweet Essentials', 'Summer Silhouettes' & 'Four Frames' sets, inside sentiment from Stampendous
CS: SU! Crumb Cake, Pool Party, Early Espresso & Very Vanilla
Patterned paper: SU! In Color DSP stack
Ink: SU! Pool Party, Soft Suede & Early Espresso, Early Espresso marker
Tools: SU! Owl Builder, 3/4" circle, 1/2" circle, Itty Bitty circle, Decorative Label & Heart to Heart punches, Simply Scored & Diagonal Plate, Stamp-a-ma-jig, sponge dauber
Embellishments & accessories: SU! Pool Party satin ribbon, Crystal Effects, Neutrals Brads, Linen Thread, buttons, Dimensionals

Hot Air Balloons Birthday Shadow Box Card, Choc Chip Ginger Nuts & A Cake
It was our fabulous friend Mike's birthday on Sunday and he and Debs came over for the afternoon and we cooked dinner in the evening. I made Mike a hot air balloons shadow box card - and I also made a batch of Delia Smith recipe chocolate chip ginger nuts which I gave him in a jar.
I used Real Red CS for the card base, die cut an oval aperture in the front and added a Bashful Blue frame. I stamped the clouds in Bashful Blue ink onto Whisper White CS, cut the panel to size and glued it to the back panel. I then stamped and fussy cut three hot air balloons, popped two up on the back panel and popped one up on the front. I stamped some birds onto the sky and then die cut some clouds. I sponged the edges of the clouds with Bashful Blue ink and popped them up. I stamped and cut out the sentiment banner and popped that up too.
Here's another view of the card. Shadow box cards have the wow factor but are easy to put together - I like that in a card! Another plus is that they fold flat to go inside an envelope. There's a tutorial here on Splitcoast Stampers if you want to try a shadow box card for yourself. This card fits into a C6 envelope, I started by cutting a piece of A4 CS in half to get an A5 sized piece and then cut that in half to get the 2 pieces needed for the card base. I scored both ends of both pieces at 1/2" and 1" to form the box shape. You can make them to fit into square envelopes too, for example for a 6" square envelope, I'd cut two 5 3/4" CS squares and still score the ends at 1/2" and 1".
Here's the back of the card.
Here's the front of the envelope.
Here's the jar of home made chocolate chip ginger nuts with a tag tied to the jar. I was happy to finally ink up the 'Deliciously Made for You' stamp! Mike absolutely loves ginger but I'm not quite as keen. I made a batch on Saturday to try them out as I hadn't made them before - yum! Then I whipped up this batch for Mike on Sunday morning and I added a bit more ground ginger to his batch.
The back of the tag.
I was definitely a domestic goddess this weekend - not only did I make the choc chip ginger nut biscuits, I made Mike a cake to celebrate his birthday - an Austrian Coffee and Walnut cake! I should have taken a photo when it was whole but I forgot until after we'd tucked in! I gave Mike some to take home and we have this left. It is soooooo good, it won't last long! You can't go wrong with Delia recipes, they're always delicious! Mike gave it 10 out of 10 and said mine looked better than the photo in Delia's book - high praise indeed! We sat in the garden, drank Pimm's, enjoyed the sunshine, chatted, laughed and ate - perfect!
Supplies for card:
Stamps: SU! 'Up, Up & Away' & 'Itty Bitty Banners' sets, Hero Arts 'Clouds' background stamp, birds from Hobby Art, fantastic day sentiment from Hero Arts
CS: SU! Real Red, Bashful Blue & Whisper White

Trio Of Trees Merry Christmas Card - 52 {C}CT May Sketch Challenge
It's Mynette's turn to host the challenges at 52 {C}CT during May and she's given us this sketch to work with this week. A wonderfully versatile but nice and easy sketch it is too! It would work well in portrait orientation and for a square card too I think.
I was in the mood to make a card using black, white and one other bold colour and I plumped for lime green. I love black, white and green together and I've made cards with this combo before but not a Christmas card. I wasn't sure how it would pan out but I have to say I'm quite happy with the end result!
So I had a layout to work with and I'd chosen a colour combo, the next thing was to choose stamps. I had a rootle in my Christmas stamp stash and reached for a retired SU! set called Patterned Pines as I haven't used that in a while and I love it. That is just one of the great things about being on the 52 {C}CT Design Team and making a Christmas card each week, it gets me to use some of my older stash items! I made a black A6 card base, added a Lucky Limeade mat layer and stamped the sentiment. I glued a white Nestie Labels Four shape on top of a black strip and added two punched snowflakes. I stamped the trio of trees stamp twice, once using black ink and a second time using Lucky Limeade ink. I cut out three trees and popped them up on the label shape using thinner 3d foam tape for the green trees and thicker foam tape for the black tree. I added three black gems to the top left corner to balance the sentiment and added green gems to the snowflake centres.
The snowflake stamp that is in the Patterned Pines set is such a gorgeous shape so I was very happy to get that inky for the inside of the card and the envelope! I stamped another Limeade tree, fussy cut it and glued that to the white panel to finish off.
Another Christmas card added to the box, it's starting to fill up nicely! You can add to your stash of Christmas cards too if you take part in our 52 {C}CT challenge this week and make a card with this fab layout. The other gals on the DT will have made great cards to inspire you so go and check those out before you go off and get inky!
Supplies:
Stamps: SU! 'Patterned Pines' & 'Four the Holidays' sets, Hero Arts 'Very Merry Christmas' clear set

Tools: Nestabilities Labels Four die, Woodware snowflake punch, 1 3/4" & 2" circle punches
