Happy Birthday To My Bro!

Today, June 14th is my brother's b'day.  As I "try" to do for most b'days, I make my cards.  Here is the card I made for my brother.

 The paper is Recollections (silver) and pattern paper and letter stickers are from DCWV "The Immortal Love Kit."

The crown is from Me & My Big Ideas sticker pack. 

I used Stickles  on the pattern paper as well as on the crown to add a little bling. 

The photo corner stickers and vellum is from DCWV "The Immortal Love Kit." 

Silver paper is Recollections.  Made the envelope with Martha Stewart scoring board.  Used the Cricut cartridge Quarter Note and used my Gypsy to weld the letters together. 

The crown was cut from Cricut Cart "Indie Art."  Note, I realized after putting the crown on that it should be on the top flap; can't see it when envelope is closed.  ;)

Wishing my bro a Happy "35th" Birthday...again.  ;)

PKS Face Challenge: Card Storage

Hello...Hello...Hello!

It's Wednesday and I have finally finished PKS Face Challenge .

I'm not sure why, but I'm having difficult time matching colors or it seems that I'm second guessing myself when it comes to picking colors; perhaps thinking too hard/much about it.  Who knows?!  I bought myself a color wheel; so...we'll see how that works.  Does anybody use those?  What do you think?  Helpful?

I liked the mailbox idea and was fortunate enough to find them at Target (like the design team girls mentioned) in the $1 bins.  They had three different colors and I couldn't decide what one...so what's a crafter gal to do?  Pick two of each color!  ;)

The face challenge was to create an altered container using PKS faces to store Valentines or cards you receive throughout the year.

And...here is the finished look:

Recipe:

• Cricut cartridge: Hannah Montana and Quarter Note
• Designer Paper: K&Company "Lovely"
• Card stock: Stampin Up "Real Red", "Regal Rose", "Basic Black", and "Whisper White"
• PKS 490: Everyday Character Face Assortment
• PKS: White Gel Pen
• My Pink Stamper: Family and Friends
• Red grosgrain ribbon
• Adhesive and pop-up dots
• Mail box: Target

I liked how this turned out and I'm going to turn this into a card.  I can bust out a dozen by Monday!  hehe!  ;) 

Thank you for visiting!  :)
