Card Challenge Day 24 - Terrific Ten

At 365 Cards today, the challenge was to use TEN different patterned papers all on one card. What a great way to use up some scraps! I have never used that many patterns on one project before but I think this one turned out pretty nice with them. I ended up using 12 patterned papers and two plain colored cardstock along with the patterned ribbon! I think I am going to add the sentiment "Celebrate Life"! What do you think?

Card Challenge Day 22 - Movie Monday

Use the poster above or anything about the movie to create a card. You could also use the animated version if you wanted.

Now todays challenge at 365 Cards was super hard for me - I had no earthy idea what to do. I saw the old version of the movie but missed going with my family to see the new version (was away scrapbooking)! I wasn't going to do this one because it has been a long day and I am very tired and feeling lazy about thinking up something but I had to keep up my record of completing each card - true dedication you know! LOL I started off by printing a clipart image of the rabbit and then coloring him in with the gamsol and Prisma colored pencils. I printed some of the script from the movie on the brown paper which was originally going to be my background paper but then I decided against it and just used a cut strip of it. I just had to incorporate the rabbits famous saying and decided it would make a good belated birthday card to go along with the "late" theme. You may not be able to see it well but I used the glossy accents for the watch face and the rabbits glasses too.

Card Challenge Day 21 Super Sketchy Sunday

Today at 365 cards we were to use this sketch for our card.

I needed a teen birthday card so this is the card that I made. I used the pop dots to lift up the ear plugs, music note, adjustment thingy and round middle button! The Ipod and music note are from the Paisley cricut cartridge.

Another card challenge

When Jane commented on one of posts the other day asking me to join in a challenge over at Just Scraps, I thought well why not. The challenge was to use Red, Black and White all over your card or layout project. I loved the looks of these colors together but these are not colors I would regularly make a card with. I love how it turned out though! The digi stamp was a freebie over at Digital Doodling and the scalloped template behind the stamp was from Penny at Penny Duncan's Creations. Penny is a wonderful person with many great free SVG files and tutorials on her site!

Card Challenge Day 14 - SUPER SKETCH SUNDAY

and this is the card that I came up with -the FREE digi stamp that I used can be downloaded here.

Birthday Card - 4 yr old girl

Just made my niece this simple birthday card for her 4th birthday - time sure does fly by fast!

Over at Bitten by the Bug they are having a contest. I have never entered a contest before so I thought what the heck I needed to make a birthday card for a December birthday and what was I going to do with all these Christmas paper scraps laying around! You are to make a Birthday card with it mainly being red and green and it had to have at least one cricut cut from any cartridge of your choice. I chose this birthday party hats border on the Celebrations cartridge.

Head on over and check it out and join the fun! Here is my entry!

Made this birthday card for my girlfriend tonight!

My dear daughter turns "11" on Thursday so I decided to make her this card. I chose this stamp because when she was looking through my things last night she said "Awww, Mommy this is so cute - I love this stamp!" I hope she likes what I did with it! Where does the time go - I can't believe she is eleven already!

Happy 87th Birthday Pap!

Here is a card I made for my grandfather who will be turning 87 on Thur., March 12. You would never know he is turning that old - God has surely blessed him with good health!

Another one for the RRS album!

I made page two of our Ravenous Red Squirrels album (RRS). I learned two things from making this page. Green embossing powder does not show up on dark paper - it just turns black - bummer! I also learned that the Versamark pen works for embossing but not as good!
Oh and I remembered late last night that I needed a birthday card for one of the teachers at school and this is what I came up with.
