Another 5 challenges in one card!


Hello again! Here's a third card for the weekend and it hits another 5 challenges! That's a lot of challenges for this weekend!!

Okay, here it goes:


1.) Pile it on! - Eat Your Veggies - this one is pretty obvious!


2.) The Corrosive Challenge - What's Cooking? - again, obvious!


3.) Phindy's Challenge - Use Buttons of Brads - not too tough...


4.) Fussy and Fancy Friday - A Recipe - 3 images, 3 DPs, 3 types of embellishments - okay, this was a bit more difficult, aka, almost drove me nuts! I have it covered though!!!


5.) Sketch Girl - Sketch # 19 - this was easy peasy!


Sooooooo, here's the card.....again, I'm not really very happy with the quality of the picture but I had to scan this one too!


A second card for the weekend and 5 more challenges!


Okay, so I may not have gotten many cards done this weekend but I sure did hit up a lot of challenges....this second card is for 5 different challenges!


1.) Cupcake Craft Challenge - Gray, Black, and one other color (I chose red)


2.) Wild Flower Wednesday - Monochromatic (and Black and White) - this may be a bit of a stretch but this is as monochromatic as I get!


3.) Cute Card Thursday - No Designer Papers - this was actually fun! I made the background a little more interesting with some number and letter stamps!


4.) Paper Cutz - #43 - For a Teacher - I thought this image would a perfect end of the year card for a teacher!


5.) Friday Sketchers - Sketch #104


Four Challenges in One!


Hello! I feel like I haven't made a card in ages.....it's been busy around here but I'm catching up on some challenges this weekend!


For this first card of the weekend, I have four different challenges:


1.) Pollycraft Monday Challenge : Buttons and Butterflies - the butterflies are on the DP, the buttons are great wooden ones that I found at our dollar store, you can color them with almost anything and make them match whatever you are making!


2.) Spoon Full Of Sugar - Celebration - I have decided this should be a birthday card, possibly for my mom as her birthday is coming up next month.


3.) Phindy's Challenge - Brads or Buttons - the buttons served this challenge as well and I just love this Phindy image!


4.) Sketch Saturday - Sketch layout!
I am not overly thrilled with this picture but I had to scan the card in because my camera is mysteriously MIA! UGH!!! I guess this means I have more cleaning to do than I had thought!

One More Masculine Card for Phindy's!

Well I made time to make one last Baby Thank You for Phindy's Challenge this week! I used the same image and the same papers too! Really got my $'s worth out of those few sheets of paper and the digi!

Hope you like it!!!


A Special Card!


Hello, as many of you in the papercrafting community know, there is a special cardmaking event going on. Lisa, who is a DT for many different challenge blogs, has a sister who has terminal lung cancer. She is, obviously, going through a difficult time. Lisa has asked us to send cards to her sister, Jayme, to help brighten her days as much as possible. Of course, these shouldn't be "get well" cards, just "have a happy day" cards. If you would be willing to make a card for Jayme, check out Lisa's Blog!


Lisa, with the help of several stamping companies, is offering a blog candy prize to one of the people who sends Jayme a card. Again, more information is available on Lisa's Blog....


I am mulit-tasking this card to be entered into Tuesday Morning Sketches, a new challenge that I just found out about. The sketch was fun to play with! I had to alter the sketch just slightly because my brads were a little bigger than I thought origionally!


The card also works for this week's CAS-Tastic Challenge - "a touch of green". While the papers are not very "simple", the whole card was pretty simple to make and the green frog seems to work for that "touch of green".


I hope you enjoy my card and I hope you head over to Lisa's blog and send Jayme a card.....we all make them, why not use them for someone who really needs them?
