howdy

This week at Sentimental Sundays we are being sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps and for our challenge we want to see 'shaped cards'.

For this challenge I picked the 'wee ones cowboy' to work with and created a star shaped card as i thought it looked like a sheriffs badge.

I absolutely love how it turned out. I know I shouldn't say that but I can't help myself. I am just 'giddy' about it.

Hope you will join us this week in our 'shaped card' challenge as I can't wait to see what you create.

Make sure you stop over at the blog and check out what the rest of the design team came up with for this challenge.

Sad to say, but this will be my last post as a member of this wonderful design team. After being sick for almost 3 weeks I saw that I needed to let a few of my design team responsibilities go and sadly I will no longer be designing for Sentimental Sundays.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today it really means a lot to me.

(this is my second post for today, please scroll down to see my ADFD post)

Did you know there is a new challenge blog that just started? Yep, I could not wait for it to start so I could get my supply of birthday cards started.

This first week over at "seize the Birthday" is a sketch challenge and we are to create a feminine birthday card.

I just had to use this Stella image by Bugaboo Stamps. I have just the friend sister in mind to send it to.  Papers are by BasicGrey from the 'fiction' collection.

Here is the first sketch. Don't you just love it?

Now that we have all put Christmas 2012 behind us it is time to start working on those holiday cards for Christmas 2013.

Time for our first challenge of the new year over at Merry Monday and this week we have a color challenge for you.

I chose to use this sweet image from Bugaboo stamps called 'old snow star', along with my favorite snowflake embossing folder and an ornament die from PaperTrey Ink.

I hope you will find time to join us this week in our first challenge of the new year.

hello

Finally today I had some time to make some cards for fun after completing a few Design Team assignments.

First on the list was to make a card for the newest challenge over at the Bugaboo Stamps blog.

I used papers from the Simple Stories 'SN@P' collection along with this sweet digital image by Bugaboo.

This is the sketch that I used for my inspiration.

I will be back with one more card to share with you today.

One more card to share with you today that I created for the current challenge over at Tuesday Morning Sketches. This weeks sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps and I must admit they have some of the cutest digital images.

I used BM Topper for my card along with papers by Simple Stories from the 'SN@P' collection, My Minds Eye enamel dots and some doodlebug designs alpha stickers.

Here is the sketch that inspired my card.

Merry Christmoose ~ CHNC#98

Since it is a grey and rainy day here mixed with a few snowflakes I thought I would color in an image for a new challenge blog I found.

The challenge this week over at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge is to create a Christmas card suitable for a man or a boy.

I won 10 images a couple weeks ago over at Bugaboo Stamps and bought this cute reindeer image. The paper is new from the Echo Park 'very merry christmas' collection and that cute ivy is from a new Martha Stewart punch. I added some doodlebug design mini pearls for the berries.

I think it looks masculine. What do you think?

make a wish

A quick card to share that I made for this weeks challenge at Bugaboo Stamps. The challenge this week is 'things with tails'.

I absolutely love this little dinosaur image and was happy he had a tail so I could use him in the current challenge, and I got to use my favorite color green too. I pulled out some of my Project Life stash for this card (the label and journal tag). The embossing folder is a new one I picked up this weekend called 'falling dots'.

I created this card  for the 'anything goes challenge' over at Catch the Bug and just realized I missed the deadline, but thought I would share it anyways.

I just love the digital images over there and can always find a few that make me laugh.

One last card to share with you today that I created for this weeks challenge over at Bugaboo Stamps Blog. 

This weeks challenge is a recipe and we were to use a circle and 3 brads on our card. I also used the reindeer ornament digital image from the shop. He was just too cute to pass up.

Other items used on my card were papers and brads by My Minds Eye from the "winter wonderland collection", Sizzix embossing folder, Copics and glossy accents.

I love penguins and snowmen and whenever I find a cute one I just can't resist them.

I bought this cute little penguin digital image over at Bugaboo Stamps. The mitten shape is a new release over at PaperTrey Ink this month.

I will be sending these little mitten cards to some of my little nieces and nephews.
