Birthday Sundaes Ch #23 - Color Challenge

Hello Everyone!  It is Sunday and time for another fun Birthday Sundaes challenge!   This month we have so many fun challenges for you!   Since it is Kristie's birthday month, she based all the challenges around her favorite things!  Happy Birthday Kristie!  The DT is having so much fun creating birthday cards for your inspiration with these themes.  This week we have a fun color challenge for you!  The colors are Pink, Green and White only Birthday Card (it is ok to use some other neutrals but only as needed)!  Here is my birthday card! 

When I hear pink I think either Hello Kitty or Fairies.  Fairies got the pick this week!  I used Once Upon a Princess for the cute little party fairy and for the frame.

I added a lot of bling, sparkle and shine to this little cutie.  The wings were glittered using SU Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.  I added liquid pearl to the eyes and Stickles to the cheeks/lips.
DT member Samantha does amazing work with liquid pearls!  Her cards are gorgeous so I really wanted to try it out on the border.  I'm going to need a lot more practice!

I hope you'll join us this week at Birthday Sundaes for our Pink, Green and White Birthday Card challenge!  DT Member Sue is offering a set of Large Oval Scallops Nestabilities as our prize this week. Thank you Sue!  Please make sure to check out our guest designer and the rest of the DT Birthday Cards this week!  They really are an amazing and sweet group of ladies!!  Thanks for stopping by today!

Ok, I don't know why you aren't popping up in my google reader but I just realized it has been a while since I have been over here. I just looked at all your back to school projects and Oh my goodness they are awesome. I have seen that wreath around the blog-o-sphere and I thought it was so cute. I like how you created it. VERY creative. Your little bags for your daughter and friends filled with goodies, so CUTE. All of them are just adorable, awesome job!!!

Enjoy the rest of your day!

This is such a sweet card! I love the little fairy's stockings. The liquid pearls look so fresh and pretty, I haven't used them before but I'm seeing them all over the place! You've inspired me, thank you :)

I LOVE your card for this week's challenge! It's so cute! You did an outstanding job (Liquid Pearls included!)! I love the pierced edge on the white cardstock and that little fairy is just too sweet!

As I was reading your post for this week's challenge, I nearly choked on the water I was drinking when came across my name! I am truly flattered you feel that way! I just simply love working with the Liquid Pearls products! You create pretty amazing projects yourself! S:o)
