Challenge: Princess

Momo's current Tuesday Challenge is based on the theme: princess. I immediately thought of both a castle and pink, and of course some sparkle!

Ingredients:
Stampin' Up! (SU) Blushing Bride Cardstock
Versa Mark Dazzle "frost" to highlight the castle

SU  Background 1 Texturz Plate
A Walk in the Park DP

Celebrate It Basic Narrows Ribbon

MTC & Cricut - castle

Between my nieces and my friend's 5-year-old princess sure has been the theme this year - I've made four princess cards within the past few months for their birthdays. This one will be put away until my 3-year-old niece's birthday in April :)

Challenge: Inkspirations Sketch #53

The inspiration over at Inkspiration this week is overflowing! As soon as I saw it, I fell in love with the sketch and all the designers' cards; I just couldn't wait to start creating my own!

 As I have a little princess birthday to go to this weekend, I thought it would be cute to give the birthday girl a card with a castle engraved with her initials. Pink all around for this little princess, and I have to say I really enjoy making super girly cards!

Challenge: Snow

Momo has decided for the New Year to do something different and have her girls choose some of the challenges. This week Joanna picked it and the challenge is to make something with "Snow" or a "Snow theme". I had a lot of fun making this cute little owl in MTC and cutting it with my Cricut. I love his little snowflakes and scarf!
