Happy Birthday Kandi JB #18

Just Buggin' challenge # 18 "in the shadows" The first post of 2010! :) Happy New Year everyone! I hope your year is wonderful! This weeks challenge was to use the shadow or blackout feature, which I did on both the flower and the butterfly. Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Black Emboss, Chocolate Chip Paper: Razzleberry Lemonade, Crushed Curry, Razzle Berry, Chocolate Chip Bling: Some misc diamonds, silver cord. champagne mist Cartridge: Home De'cor Stamp sets: Well Scripted, Priceless, & En Francais I made this card for one of friends birthdays. She is the one who inspires me to do these challenges with 'Just buggin' so I thought it only fitting that I use the Cricut to honor her birthday. First I stamped the en francais on top of the DSP in chocolate chip, next I stamped the butterfly in razzleberry randomly. I used the eyelet border to cut the crushed curry on the left side, and tied it with a little cord. I cut the flower at 3" and the butterfly at 1 1/2 (I believe) I then used the shimmer paint in champagne to shine up the flower and butterfly. The greeting is embossed in black. I like to emboss because it really makes it stand out. Almost done~ It needed a little bling to make it complete, so I rumaged through my drawers and found some sticky diamonds. Miss KANDI PANTS I hope you have a terriffic Birthday!!!! Luv ya bunches! Thanks for celebrating it with us!! and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you!
