Debonaire Doggie

I made this card for the Splitcoast Sketch Challenge today.   I saw this cute little dog on a card by Forest Ranger aka Janette last week.   It is a new release by Jessica Lynn Originals.   The image reminds me so much of my black Frenchie that I just had to have it.  I am thinking that my Tucker needs a hat like this.  ~Smile~

Thanks, so much for taking a look at my card.

Jude's Third Birthday

Jude turned three last week.  It sure does not seem possible that he is already three.   He really loves Monster Trucks.   He went to a show on Saturday and he loved it.  We had his birthday party yesterday so I wanted to keep in the theme of things and make him a monster truck card.  The stamps I used are from Our Daily Bread Designs-Our Special Boy.

Thanks so much for looking at my card today.

Mixed Media Challenge

I made this card for the Splitcoast Mixed Media challenge this week and the Free 4 All challenge.
The Free 4 All challenge was to add something postal to our cards so I added the gold  embossed stamp.  The mixed challenge was to add a wild life adventure.

I used my gelli plate and acrylic paints to make the background with a stencil.  I added Heide Swapp Spray Shine over the acrylic paints. 

The giraffe is an older stamp by Mark's finest paper called "African Veld".

Classy Cards-Last Card-Beautiful Sunflowers

I am sad to say this will be my last post for Classy Cards N Such as they are closing on February 29th.    I have certainly  enjoyed working with Beverly and the other team members.

To brighten up the day I decided to make a card with Sunflowers on it.  They are my favorite flowers and I think they are so cheerful looking.

I started my card with a brown card base.  I layered it with red card stock and added a layer of Graphic 45  French Country designer paper.  I really think these color compliment each other and are perfect for a card with a country feel.

I used red card stock to cut the Fleur De Lis Decorative Square.  I used a square die to cut out a window to fit the Heartfelt Creations Sunflower Bouquet behind it.   I stamped two of the images so I could fussy cut the sunflowers from the one to place in the corner.  I shaped the flowers using the Paper Blossom Tool kit.    I colored the images with copics.   I adhered the three sunflowers on the corner of the first image and popped one of them up using a foam square.  I used green card stock to cut the Marianne Anja Leaves 2 to place them under the sunflowers. I used my trusty Memory Box
Willoughby Butterfly Wings to cut the butterflies in the upper corner.  This is the butterfly image that I use most.  I used tear drop pearls to place on the butterfly  and in the corners as the finishing touch to my card.

There is a big sale going on in the Classy Cards Store.  Everything is 43% off.

Thank you for stopping by today.

I entered this card in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge - anything goes

QKR Stampede Challenge 180 - Birthday Card

The challenge over at the QKR Blog is to make a birthday card.   I used the QKR Old Buzzard 
image  #8203.   I loved this image the first time I saw and knew I would be making a card with it soon.  The sentiment "Happy Birthday You Old Buzzard" was computer generated.   I added some tail feather down on the bottom of the scalloped circle and on the other side I placed black stars with sequin centers.  The image was colored with copics.  I hope you will hop over to the blog and see what the other team members have made for this challenge.  We hope you will join us for the challenge.
