A kiddie challenge for the afternoon. This also counts for my sadly seldom used cricut for the challenge at Sharing My Work for OWH.
Scrapping with Purpose
She also asked that we make an any hero card - so I made five in the green.
Cards created this year to send to our Nation's Heros....24

Sketch 121
More cards inspired by the Rebel Blog Hop. These four fill two challenges - use a die cut and paper piece a card for a child. Paper piecing is the easy way for those of us still coloring challenged. I used a stamp from the Kanban Fairy Cakes set. I have a few of their sets and every single one gives a beautiful image. This one Is tamped on white and used a Sizzix die to cut that fluffy frame. Then, I used the same stamp again on some pretty My Mind's eye polk a dot paper. I cut out just the wrapper of the cupcake and colored the ribbon - I can handle that much. I popped it on dimensional.
Next I wanted to make that pretty swirly frosting look yummy. I covered it with Stickles. Usually, it doesn't flake off the glitter, but this time it really looked like it would. When we make cards for our heros we do not - EVER use glitter. Glitter that flakes can be caught on their uniform and picked up by night vision goggles. There is no card cute enough to risk their safety. So, I covered the stickles with Glossy Accents. Then end effect is really dimensional and looks like you could eat it.
This sketch #121 was a nice fit for the color pallet I used here. Since this is a darker card base the inside is finished off with a white insert where I stamped a tiny cupcake in the corner.
