My tea cup set and the cupcakes, I did not make but I did paint them. I found them all in the button department at Joann’s store. My flowers I found in the bridal department at Hobby lobby and they had all kinds of colors, they where 50% off, so I paid $1.00 for 6 of them. Thought that was a good deal.

Hello everyone and welcome to Delightful Thursday! This is my creation for this week. The images I used are from Color My World digi set.  This is an envelop and it makes a awesome color crayon holder and it holds 30 crayons.

Color my world 2013  r

The paper I used is from Die Cuts with a View and the stack is called The grade school. The spellbinder die used is called beaded oval. Border punch is from Martha Steward.

Color my world 2013  l

Crayon punch is from emagination and I know they are out of business and I punched them out with glitter paper. Sponged around the frame with brilliance ink color lime. Add some diamond glaze to the glass. The ribbon was from my stash. Pearl pen colors sunny yellow, red, green and blue.

Color my world 2013  f

This little bag is so easy to make and it is called BAG-A-LOPE, my blogging friend Vicki did the video and I have really enjoyed her video, so it would be nice if you could stop by her blog Stamp Smiles and tell her how much you also enjoyed her creations. What is so nice about the bag is you can use it for anything. The bigger the envelope or the smaller the envelope make the difference on the size of the bag.

These are the copic markers used to color all the images.

My sentiment I found at Ginger House she has free sentiments all the time and I want to thank her for that. Used stampin up extra large decorative label to punch the sentiment out. I found some sparkle paper and used that for the dance ball. When I was coloring him all I could think of was YMCA with his hand in the air. So what the hack….

YMCA 2013  l

For me this is a pretty CAS card. I did add some white liquid pearls and Diamond glaze. The small alphabet stamp set was from Studio G.

YMCA 2013  i

For the inside I printed out April Fools and used a small note punch from Carl.
