Bouquet of Daisies



Hello! My card today is for the 4th and final Birthday Bash challenge at Beccy's Place! This week we were to use one of the freebies given away this month at Beccy's Place. I choose this bouquet of daisies and printed it out on kraft cardstock. I colored the daisies with my Galaxy Milky White marker and added some stickles to the centers and to the bow. I like the look of this done on the kraft paper. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

    Berry Nice day!


    Hello! Today's card is for Beccy's Place Birthday Bash #3 challenge ~ Anything but a Rectangle. I wanted to go fancier but just couldn't get it to come together and i'm cutting it pretty close to the deadline as it is so i just ended up going with a square card. Which is a challenge for me too as i usually just stick to the standard A2 size card! Thanks for stopping bu and have a great day!!

    White on White



    Hello! Well I've finally made an ALL White card! Normally i would just HAVE to add a very slim black layer between the 2 white layers but decided it was time to challenge myself and just do it!! I saw an all white card on pinterst recently using this folder and thought it looked good in all white so this is what i came up with! I'm pleased with how it turned out just wish i could get a better picture of it. Cards with lots of White are so hard to get good pictures of, at least for me! The challenges i'm entering this in are listed below. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

    Birthday Cupcake



    Hello! What a dreary day it is here in PA today, really fighting to stay awake! There is a new challenge out there called Seize the Birthday. So far they have all been sketch challenges (which are my favorite's!) rotating from girl to boy cards every other week. This will be my 3rd attempt to get my card done and posted in time before the challenge ends! LOL Seems to run a little shorter time wise than most and i just keep missing it! But they say 3rd times the charm so.....think I'll make it this time!! ;0)  I found this pack of Felt sticker cupcakes at J's last week and i knew they'd be perfect on cards! I think it was a pk of 24 for like $2.99 and than they were on sale 1/2 off. They were in the Valentine's Day section. They had some cute felt hearts also and i picked up some of those too. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

    Hello! Ready for another great sketch from  The Sweet Stop?! This was such a fun sketch to play with that I ended up making 2cards! They were almost identical so i'm only showing one.
