you're a hoot

 This first card is for this weeks challenge over at CAS~tastic and the challenge was SIMPLE... Use 3 of the following items on a card, embossing, stamped or printed image, inked edges, masking, paper piercing, or lace.

As you can see I used stamped or printed image, inked edges, and paper piercing on this card. This was my second card that I made as I couldn't really submit my first one as the ribbon I used could not be condsidered lace ~ or could it?

Don't you just love this little owl stamp? I got him at Michaels with a coupon for $1.50 and that price included the sentiment and the twig branch.

Hope you enjoy and I will be back with another card and a couple of layouts. If blogger behaves and lets me upload the pictures.

I love the October Afternoon "thrift shop" line of papers and embellishments and thought it was perfect for the newest sketch over at CAS~tastic.

This is one of those sketches I can see myself using over and over again.

Enjoy!

hello ~ happy birthday ~ miss you

I have a few more cards to share with you today and then I will be all caught up on my card challenges for a few days, which might give me time to complete my classes at Anchor Paper for July and then work on some of my scrapbooking.

This card is for the challenge over at CPS and was inspired by this sketch. I have to admit this was a tough sketch for me.

I used Cosmo Cricket papers and tiny type stickers. The arrow was fussy cut by me. I tried out a different size for the card and made it 3.5" x 5.5".

This next card is for this weeks challenge over at Sasya's Sketches. I used October Afternoon "go fly a kite" papers, stickers, and journal card and added a couple of handmade rosebuds.

My last card is for the CAS ~ Tastic Challenge and this weeks challenge was to use neutral, blue, and yellow on your card.

I used a Neenah natural white for the base of the card which I cut out with my Spellbinders "labels 8" die, and the blue and yellow are from "material girl" by Cosmo Cricket.

Enjoy!
