- CAS-ual Fridays - CFC51 - a birthday theme (extended deadline - yea!)
- One Layer Wednesday - OLW87 - to make a shaped one layer card
- Colour Q - cQc136 - great colours
- Do You Stack Up? - DYSU71 - to use a flower
This week I've been sorting out my craft room; all the boxes are unpacked and it's so, so nice to have all my stash here. And I've been able to use it on this card!! I started off by cutting an octagon shaped card (OLW87) and embossing another octagon inside the cut shape. Next I stamped a birthday cupcake (CFC51) in the centre and used Promarkers to colour match (as far as possible) the cQc136 colours. I finished off by stamping "happy birthday" around the image. Clean, simple and fun!! This one is for my stash and for the joy of crafting.
Stamps: Hero Arts - Birthday Cupcakes; Waltzingmouse - Say It Loud
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Pear Pizzazz, Always Artichoke; Memento - Tuxedo Black
Promarkers: Ivory, Tulip Yellow (Daffodil Delight), Gold (Tangerine Tango)
Spellbinders: Octagons Lg (S4-185) #7 and #4
Accessories: Card from stash
It's so nice having my craft room back - it's mostly sorted and I promise to have photos next week. I should have all the house finished by then!
That's all for now. I'll be back tomorrow - with another card to share. See you then.

Your comment on my blog is too funny, Deborah, because I almost made a hex card! lol! I love what you've done with this! And way to knock all those challenges off with one card - I haven't been able to manage more than 2 in one yet - it really takes great skill and planning to do that! Just saw you have another blog - going to take a look!
Cute! I love the shape!!!!
Love the shape you chose for your card. I don't have that die set..hmmm...might need to do a little shopping! LOVE how you've embossed the smaller one inside...it makes a perfect frame for the cute cupcake! As for knocking out all those challenges with one card....Way To GO!!!
Fabulous - hexagons are so on trend and make such a cute shaped card. Great way to combine 4 challenges too.
I bet you'll be so glad to see the back of all those boxes....

Just realized your card is an octagon, not a hexagon (yes, I'm an accountant, but clearly can't count past 6). lol!
LOL!!!
Good to see you surface in blogland Deb :0) Fab card and a neat shape too.
I admire the fact you can craft and move into a new house at the same time :0)
Look forward to the photos.

Glad you're almost sorted. Love the octagonal shape & your embossing of the same shape within it to provide a panel for the cupcake.

What a cute little cupcake with that pretty yellow flower and I like the shape too. Glad to hear you've got your craft room sorted! Vicky x
LOVE this shape card! We get so used to doing the standard card. It's nice to see something different. Thank you for sharing this with us this week at the ColourQ.
Deborah I love your card, when I first saw it the first thing I thought of what a dream catcher. Just beautiful.
I love your shaped card, Deborah, especially the way you've stamped the sentiment around the shape to frame that cute cupcake. :) ann
Cool shaped card. Love the placement of the sentiment! Thanks for joining us at DYSU.
Deborah, Great shaped card. I like the way your sentiment travels around the card. Very fun! Thanks for playing along with the OWL challenge this week.
