Thanks a Bunch!!!

Hello Ai Fans!!!

Its me Piali!!
I wanted to share the card I made for the "Floral Frenzy" challenge..

I didn't have any floral images or a perfect image that goes with flowers. Then I created this little scene using Ai- To the end set.
I used stickers for my flowers...rest of the card is made with different designer paper.
I like how it turned out...super cute!!!

You still have time to play along with the current Ai challenge .

A Little Birthday Whoot!

Hello Ai fans!
It's Karen here, and being the only Canuck on the design team, since yesterday was Canada's 146th birthday (July 1st!), I decided to make a birthday card using some Canadian colours :o)  I've used the adorable Birthday Whoot Set (sku#4125):
I've made a 5 1/2" square card with a kraft paper base, and I popped up the sentiment so that the Baker's Twine could slip underneath.  Here's a close up:
And the Copics I used:
Happy Tuesday, everyone!

BBQ Couple

Hello Ai friends and happy July 1st!  

I'm sharing a fun card using the BBQ couple (SKU# CS 3464) and Grad Card Kit (SKU#4304).


Since 4th of July is coming up in a few days, I want to use some red, white, and blue.  The pattern paper from the Grad card kit is totally perfect for this.  I added a strip of red card stock, some twine, and star brads.  And Viola!


 I hope you like it and have a great day!
