Wishing you a Happy Birthday - a card

Another bright and happy colors for a birthday card :)

I followed Freshly Made Sketches #429, only turned it on the side:

The inspiration for the cheerful colors came from Hand Stampped Sentiment color challenge #336:

I used Tim Holtz Bitty Grunge stamp, and then fussy cut around the edges of the circles. A little touch with some tiny enamel dots and a sentiment (SimonSays stamps).

It also goes for the 'Happy Birthday' challenge at SimosSays Stamps Wednesday challenge.

Circles of lights and colors - CSI case file no. 281

Top 3 at Sketches in Thyme 

I'm late with my DT work for the new case file at CSI, case file no. 281, with this beautiful inspiration photo:

I used the sketch as a starting point, mostly inspired by big circle. As for the clues, I've used: woodgrain, cameras, stamps, globe, winges things/animal (butterflies), a label (and placed my journaling on it), pie charts, numbers and a light bulb.

It also goes for the sketch no. 237 at Sketches In Thyme:

First, I stamped here and there with 49 and Market stamp, Pascale's 1878. Then I stampped the Stamppers Anonymous' circles stamp with clear embossing ink and used Lindy's Purely White ep.

Next, I spllattered Lindy's sprays: Grab a Guy Gold shimmer, Yellow of the Seas Gold shimmer and Sassy Sapphire shimmer.

It was a great opportunity to use all those scraps, I just picked scraps in the matching colors of the challenge, and made some pie charts with them. Then I die cut circles and rings.

The grayish woodgrain paper is from Altair Art, and so are the fussy cut butterflies.

Here're some close-ups on the details:
