Make It With Money Birthday Boy

I'm entering this card into the Casual Fridays Birthday Boy challenge HERE and Papertrey Make It Monday Make It With Money HERE.  I wasn't going to take part in the PTI challenge because I couldn't think what I might make with money but I got onto Youtube and came up with this guitar.  I used PTI Fancy Flourishes and Casual Fridays Woot Woot stamps. A few SU sequins and here you have it.

Make it Monday Sunshine Card

This is my card for a Make it Monday Ink blending through a die cut mask. Check out the details and video HERE My ink blending turned out rather opaque. I will try another one and hopefully get the technique mastered. I used the PTI Beautiful Blooms II flower die and sentiment from Hello Sunshine.

PTI April Blog Hop

It's time for the April Blog Hop over at Papertrey Ink. Check it out HERE This is the inspiration photo.
and this is my take of it. A bit of a vintagey look. I used PTI stamps Enjoy the Ride, Strawberry Patch on one of the balloons, Clouds die to do the sponging and a few October afternoon papers.

Ombre Stenciled Background

Here's my card for the challenge at Papertrey Ink Make It Monday #241. You can check it out HERE I used PTI stamps Life,Up Up And Away and I exchanged the basket bottoms on the balloons for the ones in Everyday Button Bits. The only background stencil I own is the little circle/dots that I added.
It turned out ok though.
