Simple little card

Image
As challenges take place, I'm creating a stack of cards that I will be able to give away as gifts (if no one takes them before hand lol).  This is one of those little cards for all occasions. I used one of my little owls from Greeting Farms that I got as a candy from Stamp and Create ;)  I just looove that set.  As you can see in previous posts I use it a lot!  I used this sketch to make it: I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Mojo monday  - Sketch Splendid stamping  - Classic pattern (there's strips and polka dots) Crafty ribbons challenge  - Things with wings and ribbon Paper play challenges  - Things with wings Totally papercrafts  - Things with wings Top tip tuesday  - dotty or spotty Now I'm pretty sure that I can still make one more before the end of the weekend ;) Vicky xo

Lil French Lolita Lilith

I think I made the card that I like the most so far.  I had won some time back the new digi Lil Lolita images from Tickled Pink.  They are sooo cute.  And I was waiting for the right card to use them.  I found a challenge that was asking for just this.  I'm really really really happy with the result if I may say so myself. When the cute little digi's came on I had seen on one of the DT's work that they had used playing cards.  I thought that was an amazing idea.  With 4 kids there's always some cards that end up missing in sets... and I toss them away.  What a great way to re-use them!   And to top it off, I had discovered last week while going to a Zellers (which is being turned into Target soon) a pack of charms for 1$.  One of them was a little playing card.  I told myself that I would not be using that for awhile... couldn't figure out what to use it for.  Well this was the PERFECT opportunity!!!!  I used this sketch to make it: I'm entering it in

Last little card for the night

Image
I managed to make a last little card for the night.  I was still in the reuse what you have mode... so I used a bunch of the scrap paper that I had and I created a card that would fit the sketch that I had not yet completed. To make this card I used like I mentioned scraps of papers and ribbon and a little hedgehog stamp from Penny Black.   I made it using this sketch:   I'm entering it in the following challenges: Especially made  - Sketch Crafty catz weekly challenge  - Animal (my little Penny black hedgehog fits right in ;) ) Penny black at all sorts  - oh so cute (my 3rd entry) Fab n funky challenges  - on all four ;) well mine is running... but i'm sure it still counts lol I'm really happy with my day.  It was a busy one with the cleaning, laundry, driving my daughter to volunteer work and back but I still managed to do a lot of projects.  So it was good ;) See you tomorrow.
