We can’t wait to see your Challenge 129 – Fun with Food creativity! This challenge will be open until Sunday, July 31 at 11:59PM ET. Let’s see who has the recipe for crafty fun!

Samantha joins us today with adorable inspiration! Her grape-themed design is so cute with its punny greeting!

This adorable cluster of smiley-faced grapes was stamped using Be Hap-pea! Samantha colored them in shades of purple using Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Then she arranged them with leaves and a “stem” from A Bug Deal!

She inked up the background with Distress Oxide inks (see supply list below for the colors she used). Then she finished this adorable birthday card with a punny custom sentiment using Harold’s ABCs.

Thanks so much for this charming inspiration, Samantha!

Christy’s Tea-rrific Day Inspiration!

We can’t wait to see your Challenge 129 – Fun with Food creativity! This challenge will be open until Sunday, July 31 at 11:59PM ET. Let’s see who has the recipe for crafty fun!

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Fun with Food Challenge! For this one I decided to make a fun birthday tea party card featuring Tea-riffic Day, Tea-riffic Day Add-on, and the banner from Scent with Love. I stamped all the images in Jet Black ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I die cut the Tree House out of Kraft cardstock and the tree top and Slimline Grassy Hillside Borders out of Cilantro cardstock and added some definition with Distress Oxide Inks. I used Vintage Photo on the Kraft and Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn on the Cilantro. I also created a sky using a piece of Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock with Salvaged Patina and the Cloudy Stencil.

I cut the door of the Tree House out of Peacock Cardstock and the trim from Ground Coffee and glued those into place, then glued the grass and tree to the sky and trimmed the whole panel down with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables.

I stamped a sentiment from Reveal Wheel Friends & Family Sentiments and glued the focal panel to a Peacock card base. Then I added my images and finished up with a bit of Stardust Stickles.

If you’d like to watch this card design come together, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thank you, Christy, for sharing this beautiful inspiration today!
