Take It Easy


Happy Sunday!

In the Christian world, it's Pentecost Sunday!

So, if you are Christian, 
don't forget to wear Red today
 to represent the 
fire of the Holy Spirit.

Then, get ready to get your craft on

with another spectacularly "sweet" challenge

at Cupcake Inspirations!



This week our sponsor is 



Thank you for your sponsorship!

A generous prize will be offered to our randomly selected winner.



Today's challenge  is a color challenge:

CORAL  ~  POOL  ~  BANANA

Inspiration Photo Compliments of Clever Little Cupcake Company


For my card, I used the image "Pinata with Coffee"

I'm still slightly lacking in coral patterned paper it seems and almost lacking in the cardstock area as well.  So, after pouring over my DP stock, I went with a non- patterned paper card.  With the distressed rectangle dies and triangle embossed border, I tried to emulate the shape and texture of the pinata.  I borrowed the sketch from the Fusion Challenge and used three of the borders, one in each color. The final touch of enamel dots are homemade from plastic beads melted down.  Such an easy peasy, inexpensive alternative to the somewhat pricey store bought kind. 

SPIES:
STAMPS:  Digital Image - Pinata with coffee (Fresh Brewed Designs); Sentiment "Take it Easy" (Lawn Fawn); Dad word (Inkadinkadoo).
PAPER: Coral, Light Blue, yellow cardstock.
INK: Wicked Black Archival Ink (Colorbox); Copics on image.
EXTRAS:  Distressed rectangle die (Spellbinders); Love Triangle emboss border folder (Cuttlebug); Enamel dots (homemade from plastic beads).

Sweet Cupcake Blessings!
