April Unity {be INSPIRED} Challenge!

We're going out to celebrate a friend's birthday tonight and she loves handmade things, so I had to finally use a Fashionista stamp for the first time and put this together for the April {be INSPIRED} Challenge. I decided to go with the card sketch part of the challenge:

Pretty simple--which I like! I was daunted about all the coloring here, but I think it came out cute. :)

This was also my first attempt at paper piecing!I'm pretty proud of that fussy cut along the hem of her dress. ;) My favorite part of this card is her glittery shoes!

I also added some other glitter touches to her dress and the cake, but the shoes are just too cute. I used Stampin' Up! Dazzling Details in Silver Sparkle. The other thing I love about this card is that, since the stamp set came with three sentiments, one was really perfect for the inside of the card:

I can't wait to give this card away tonight! The stamp set I used was Sabrina {fashionista} by Tarcey Malnofski.

Now I've got to go get ready for tonight. Thanks for stopping by! :)

Unity itty bitty-a-day Challenge! Day 7

Today is the last day of the Unity itty bitty-a-day Challenge! I'm sad because I've enjoyed making time every day to create something, but I'm happy to have completed my first challenge--yay! Today I used an adorable little stamp and combined it with a some pretty cuts using my Cricut Expore...

I really love the little teapot, it went perfectly with this itty bitty, Cup of Tea. Isn't that perforated background cool? You can see all the little holes shining through in the shadow. :)

Have a wonderful week! <3
