For Just ad Ink this week was a colour challenge when I saw the colours I immediately thought of flowers to colour in or bold shape's like Petal Pizzazz, but i have been want to do more kids cards. I did wish I had got Pony Party, have a look at JAI entries their is a wonderful basket made with this stamp set. So I ask to use the Lot's of Bot's and I had fun making this card this little robot just lends himself to multi colours.
The hardest part of this card is the message "happy birthday human" I wasn't allowed to cut the words off separate from the image when I mounted it so I had to careful ink up only the words then using the stamp-a-ma-jig lined them all up in the right place. I don't think I could survive as a card maker now without this tool, I even used it to get the robot in line.
This is a card that my 5 yr old made I can see the talent in him.
Ingredients
Card: TT, RR, KK and water colour paper
Ink: TT, RR, KK and basic black
Accessories: stamp-a-ma-jig, aqua pen, tip not die , big shot.
I did my first card with elegant eggplant NOT perfect plum, so I had to redo the card. You may be thinking I know that design where have I seen it before at has been CASED from the Catty. Anne as I said in my previous post set a mini challenge of CASE the CATTY and I have always love the look of the card For The Bride stamp set.
The Background is Tre's Chic background stamp that I just got this week, I have clear embossed it. Now on the second card you may notice that the dress is cut out there is a reason for this as well I am a lady of excuse today. I only have Pretty in Pink in a marker and it ran out today it is my first marker to run out, so I will have to order a reinker and refill it, plus get a stamp pad. So I had to cut out the dress because the first panel got a ink mark on it. My first card with wrong colours.
bye for now 
the picture it comes from is page 79 in the Main Big Catalogue. I have my fingers crossed that this stamp set doesn't retire at the end of August ( as it has in USA) because I love it, it will be one that I will keep forever.
I said earlier that I would tell you how I made my flowers, look so soft there really isn't any trick to it what I have done is punched out the scallop Circle punches, about 4 then, ran them though the crimper about 5 times flatting them every time. Then when I have done this taken both sides and made a wave one hand going up and the other going down. All this is to loosen the fibers of the paper. When you have done this then peal it apart so you have two pieces. After that just make the flower just the same. It really softens the flower. 
The first one was doing what you love, colours style etc. I went back to my first love Earth Elements, I have created a card folder. i have taken ideas from a lot of different ones available and created one that I found sturdy and I felt like the cards would be safe in it. I will be in the near future running a card class including it as one of the projects.
better go the noise from the neighborhood boys is getting very loud.
I have taken the basic design from the last card and added to it. This is a very special Birthday card for one of my ladies who has turned 85 this week but has had a rough time of it and has been in and out of hospital. The paper flower is basically the same type but done slightly different to make it softer feeling. I will give a tutorial on it later in week when I have more time. I will have to go now as I am off to visit her in hospital with the kids and don't want to be to late in the day, before she gets to tired. So I will add more and tutorial on how I did the card later.
take care 
I have done a very simple card, one that I can mass produce, I dont really like mass producing so I might make 3 of this design then I will be over it. I like the colours that I have used, they are not the tradtional red/green. I think it a very pretty card with a bit of style with flower. I think a lot of my cards will have flowers on them again, I remmbered how much I love making them.
