EIC #99 {Becky Kazana}

Hello, friends:}

I'm so excited!! The EtsyInspired challenge is one week away from our 100th challenge! You should mark your calendar for August 7th!! You won't want to miss out!!


You also don't want to miss out on this week's challenge!! Our featured Etsy store is Becky Kazana. WOW--she has so many fun items in her store. And she makes it in Hawaii!! I want to go there:} I found so many items that I loved--lots of goodies to inspire you! And this week's EIC sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps! I had some major fun looking through all the digital stamps on their site! One winner this week will win three free cards from Becky Kazana and another winner will get seven free digital stamps from Bugaboo Stamps! SOOO lucky!!!

This week, I was inspired by this cake topper. When I was looking at all the Bugaboo Stamps, I feel in love with this old couple:} I just knew it would work for this week's challenge!! Plus, our friend's son just got married...so this is their wedding card! HA! Love it! I paper pieced the couple and even used glossy accents on their glasses and the polka dots! SOOOOOO cute! I just love this card! I also colored his hair with a silver pen--just dabbing it on my finger and rubbing. The lady's hair is actually "weathered wood" patterned paper. SO FUN! I love that the man's shirt is "dirty" but his socks are clean! ACK! LOVE IT! The sentiment is::: marriage...It's great to find that one special person you can annoy for the rest of your life! How funny is that? And now that I think about it--this card is perfect for the ABC Design Blog challenge {paper pieced}. I also think this is a FUN card for Moxie Fab's Let's Do Fun & Cute challenge--ACK!! LOOOOOOOOOOVE this card! 

This next card was inspired by this bingo hat! How fun!! I wanted to make mine look vintage like the hat...but I think I distressed with too much red ink. Eh. I used my Unity bingo stamp with my Lizzie Anne Design {March KOTM} owl. I paper pieced the owl and made him 3D. I also used my distressed stickles on his stomach! SO fun!! Actually, the owls wings are stamped with Unity's music background stamp! LOVE it:} The ribbon at the bottom is velvety! Super awesome!! This card is also perfect for the ABC Design Blog...and I think that this is also a fun and cute card--I'm entering this one as well into Moxie Fab's Let's Do Fun & Cute challenge.

That's it for me today...but you need to head on over to all the other EtsyInspired DT members' blogs!! They are sharing some amazing projects with you today!! MUST SEE!!


Don't forget::: This challenge will end on Friday, August 6 at noon Pacific Time! I cannot wait to see what you were inspired by or what you create:}
