Mimi's Bike Ride for Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday - Midmonth

Happy Wednesday!

Did you get a chance yet to join in my current Crafty Wednesday challenge? If not then you still have plenty of time, and don't forget you may enter up to 3 times. This month it's all about girls and ladies. I have moved the linky tool to the end of this post, so simply scroll down to link up.

We are halfway through the month of May already and luckily I found some time to make a mid-month card for the challenge.

Let's Play // Sprinkles and Smiles // Zig Clean Color Markers // Wink of Stella 

I used one of the stamps from Penny Black's new set "Let's Play" which is currently available HERE in my Etsy shop. 

I heat embossed the image using versafine onyx ink and clear embossing powder on Bristol Vellum paper and I used my Zig Clean Color Markers for coloring. Wink of Stella glitter was applied to the bow and the balloons but it's never showing up well in photos. I kept the card CAS to keep the focus on the cute image. I framed with polka dotted patterned paper from my stash.

The sentiment is from the set Sprinkles and Smiles also by Penny Black and also heat embossed. A few "candy dots" finish off this card. The card base is Neenah Linen textured 80lb card stock.

Please note: by joining this challenge you grant the blog owner permission to post your first name, blog link and artwork you linked up here on this blog, should you be the selected winner/top pick of a challenge. Do not enter the linky tool if you do not agree to these terms. 

Also remember: this is a public blog, meaning any papercraft you link up or any comments left on this blog will be visible and clickable by third parties. The blog owner is not responsible for republished content from this blog on other blogs or websites without permission. 

ETA: In order to comply with the new GDPR regulations, I have decided that all winners and top picks will be selected from non-EU entrants. It is my believe that if I post someone else's creation on my blog as a top pick, it should receive proper credit by linking to the top pick's blog (because isn't that why we share our creations in blog land), but because I do not want to break any regulations, I am no longer able to link to individual blogs from the EU. Thank you for understanding.
