Success!

I had been meaning to make a card based on the sketch at CPS all week and I finally had a chance to take a whack at it today. I had the hardest time with it and it's such a simple (awesome) sketch. I was about to give up on it when I finally came up with this:



For:

CPS: sketch
Artful Inkables: use a special background technique
Pile It On: plastic (dude letters)

It's a bird......it's a plane.....

.....it's a free digi from Bugaboo Stamps!



For:

Unscripted Sketches: sketch
Sentimental Sundays: funny or playful
Paper Play: anything goes
Allsorts: for baby or child
Cute Card Thursday: text

Wait a minute....where's my horn

Thanks to the DT at The Crazy Challenge for picking my card as one of their Top 3.

Much busier than my norm

I mean this card, not me. Today it's not so bad around here.



I might rework the sentiment......not completely happy with it.

For:

Get Sketchy: sketch
Crafy Creations: summer lovin'
Allsorts: something for baby or child
Party Time Tuesdays: anything goes birthday
The Crazy Challenge: all about birthdays
Sentimental Sundays: playful or funny
Practical Scrappers: 7 things - 2 types of paper, 1 stamp, ink, embossing powder, ribbon, and ladybug embellies

Another honour!

My card was picked at Practical Scrappers as one of their Top 3 for last week. As always, click on the blinky on the sidebar if you're curious. (I'm such a braggart!)

Thanks, Allsorts!

My card was picked as one of the Top 5 at Allsorts last week. Click on the badge on the sidebar if you want to see which card.

All geared up

I wanted to add to my stash of boy birthday cards so I wouldn't be caught off guard the next time one of my sons are invited to a bd party.



For:

Everything But the Kitchen Sink: sketch
Meljen's Designs: long or tall card
Just Us Girls: orange, navy, green & cream
The Crazy Challenge: boys
Pollycraft Monday: birthday
Practical Scrappers: stash that is older than 1 year Okay, confession time. I'm cheating a bit with this. See, the thing is I haven't been papercrafting for a year yet, so I don't have any stash that is a year old. But, this card was part of a value package of cards that were one of the first things I ever bought for cardmaking. I'd say they were bought in October '09. So, one of the oldest things in my stash, but not over a year old. I'll leave it up to the DT at Practical Scrappers as to whether this card should be eligible for this week's challenge or not.

Miss Who?

Miss Ewe, that's who. I do. It's true. Boo hoo. I'm blue. You too? Okay, I'm through.



For:

CPS: sketch
Design Dollies: red, black and pale pink
Charisma Cardz: pink
Practical Scrappers: embossing

It's not polite to point.

But I believe that only applies to fingers. I don't think this card is being rude at all. (Or at least not intending to be rude.)



For:

Crazy 4 Challenges: red, black & white
Practical Scrappers: embossing
Ann's Creative Nook: anything goes
Party Time Tuesday: anything goes birthday

Ack!

My internet connection has been terrible lately! I'm risking pulling my hair out but I just couldn't go any longer without posting.



Made this for a wedding (obviously!).

For:

ABC Challenge: you & me
Allsorts: hearts
Paper Sundaes: lots of layers
Speedy the Cat: punches

The bear went over the mountain......

.....'cause she was tied to a bunch of balloons!

Wasn't thrilled about the embossing job....



For:

Pollycraft: pink
Practical Scrappers: border punch Don't recognize that particular punch? I just had at it with my corner rounder with the guard off. It started out much differently, than turned into a bit of a mini fit. And, it worked out, that's the shocker!
A Crafty Little Place: colour swatch
