Speedy Fox and Friends - Use Only The Center

The theme for the challenge at Speedy Fox and Friends this week is to use the center only.
 I use a MFP Stamp Shop stamps "Calendar" and "Chill in the Air".  The sentiment is from the
 "Tis the Season" stamp set.

I hope you will come over to the Blog and join us for this challenge.

This will be my last post on the Speedy Fox and Friends team.  I have enjoyed doing the challenges for the past 2 1/2 yrs.   I just need more time to do fun things with my grand-children.  They are growing up way too fast.  The baby is already two years old.  I will remain on the MFP Senior team so you will see my posts for it next week. 

Have a great weekend.

Classy Cards N Such - Cherry Blossoms - Feel Better Friend

The Classy Cards N Such Challenge this week was to make a card with either Cherry Blossoms or Dogwoods.  I love them both, but decided to go with the Cherry Blossoms.   I love making clouds so I used my cloud template and blue ink on the white cardstock that I used a Spellbinders die to cut before I sponged, leaving the paper in the die as I sponged.  I used a  Impression Obsession branch die to attach my punched cherry blossoms to after I used the Paper Blossoms Tool Kit to shape my flowers.  I attached my cherry blossoms to the branch using Art Institute Clear Adhesive.  I used Graphic 45 paper to cut the umbrella from.  I attached it using Joy Foam Pads to pop it up on my card.

I really enjoyed making this card and I hope you have enjoyed seeing it.

For more details on my card please visit the blog.

Classy Cards N Such - Masculine Birthday Card

Hi, stampers.  I wanted to share a card I made for Classy Cards N Such.   I am always in need of a masculine birthday card and usually I have none in my stash.    I used Graphic 45 paper, which is one of my favorite brands.  You probably have already figured that out from previous posts of mine.   This card was pretty easy using the Memory Box Party Music die and the Impression Obsession Greeting sett die.  I needed to dress the card up a bit so I used silver glitter paper hoping to give it more of a festive look. 

Thanks so much for taking a look at my card.  Have a wonderful weekend.
