Wobble Birthday Card

This week I made a birthday theme card for a challenge over at  Wobble Wednesday






I started out with a Standard A2 card-brown, the cake is from Life's a Party cartridge cut at 3.48"x3.71"  I used some buttons I had on hand to decorate the outside. I put orange stickles on the candle flame, and scrap paper to decorate the background. Then I put the cake on a Wobble Action.
For the inside I used the  Happy birthday to U from the "Just for U" stamp sentiment by Pink by Design.

St Patty Day Treat Box

Over at More than Favors Wacky Wednesday Challenge the theme is St. Patrick's Day.
I had this little box from the holidays that I decided to wrap. I cut out a 4 Leaf-Clover to go on the outside and the inside of the box. I used my Peachy Keen Stamp "Everyday Character Face Assortment" for the 4 Leaf-Clovers. I put treats inside for my little man. I used the Pink by Design "Its a Wrap" stamps/die sets for the Hershey Nuggets.

Valentine's Day Card

Here is a simple little card that I made for my son's pre-school class. I made them to look like the ones they sell, an image in the front and on the back I just wrote To and From. For the front I used a stamp set that I was given from recollections, sentiment "friends". I used my cuttlebug to cut out the heart shape with a cuttlebug die that has 3 hearts together all with in each other. I used a peachy keen stamp -all characters- for the inside of the hearts and then colored the eyes with white gel pen. My son helped me put the cards and candy inside the little bags that I found at the dollar store. Hope you have a loving filled day.

CCCC #30- Dragonfly Card

This is my entry for the CCCC challenge over at Tattered Time

Recipe:
Brown base standard A2 size card
Dragonfly was cut at 3.97x3.00 from the Gyosy Wanderings Cartridge.
The body is dark brown with "Lavander" stickles on the antennae, I then placed gems on the body with my Irock. The colors of the gem are blue and aqua, alternating them. On the underside of the wings I placed a mulberry type of paper with "Stardust" stickles. I then used pop-up tape under the dragonfly.
I cut out a square light green paper to place the dragonfly on to make it pop out from the brown background. I then placed a pink rectangle paper with the sentiment "Believe the Impossible" which is from Pink by Design's "Oh Boy! stamp set.
Thanks for looking.

Father's Day Card

I made a Father's Day Card for the Tacky Tuesday /Patches of pink/Wacky Wednesday challenge. The Wacky Wednesday challange was to make a man card. Patches of pink challenge was to make a Father's Day card & Tacky's challenge was to use a car image and the word "Roll" or "Wheel". I used the Pink by design "Just for men" stamp set and the sentiment "That's how I roll". For my car image I used the dumptruck from the Boys will be boys cart. I cut the truck out @ w 3.53"/h 3" I pasted it with dimensionals on a striped background, standard A2. I used chalking around the stamped sentiment and blue stitching on the car to make it pop out a little more. I also cut out a strip for the top that says grandpa on it. This card is for my son's grandfathers, I made two of the same card with different sentiments.
