caardvark and BBTB challenges/contest

These are cards that I just finished for Challenge #30 on the caardvarks website. This first one is my version of Laura's sketch. I used the left over papers from the layout I posted this morning. The papers are Bo Bunny, the blue card base is Bazzill Bling and the other cardstock is Stampin Up. The stamp is one of my Stamping Bella stamps....this one is called Snow Bunny Bella......and I used the Magic Color Pencil Technique or Gamsol Technique to color it in. I also added a little bit of Frosted Lace stickles for the white areas on the image for a little bling. For the scallops and oval, I used my nestabilities. I used my cricut and Beyond Birthday's cartridge to cut out the sentiment "you warm my heart." I also applied the stickles to the sentiment.



This second card is based upon Kazan's sketch and I also was inspired for the colors by the contest that Regina is having over on the Bitten By the Bug website. I used K&Co for the papers, Bazzill for the brown cardstock, Stampin Up for the white and green cardstock, the white ribbon, and also the stamped image....which isn't showing up to well in this picture (it reads "If at first you do succeed, try not to look astonished"). The flowers are from Prima, the brad is All My Memories, the brown ric-rac is from CTMH, and I cut the tree image with my cricut and the ZooBalloo cartridge.
