Sending Smiles

A few posts ago (A Rainbow of Warmest Thanks), I mentioned that the card was based on another card that I had made for a magazine submission last year. This card wasn’t selected and I could have SWORN that I already posted it along with another card but in the 450 some odd posts I couldn’t seem to find it. Either that or my mind is slipping and I thought that I had posted it! (If it does look familiar let me know and I’ll know that I’m not completely going insane! lol)

As I mentioned it was made for a magazine where they were looking for cards for certain sketches.

What I love about this card is that it’s colourful, fun and simple to make but the challenge is finding, the paper, buttons and twine to all coordinate which seemed to work out alright considering the paper is Memory Box, Buttons are Basic Grey and the Twine is from the Twinery.

Thanks for visiting today and have a great day!

Drunken Stampers Challenge #52 ~ Birthday Bash!!

I sooo can’t believe that our little ‘ole challenge blog is a year old! It just sooo seems like yesterday that Peg and I were talking about just getting off of our duffs and building the blog! So the theme for this week’s challenge is Birthday Bash! Surprise, surprise!
Be sure to visit the challenge blog as we’re welcomimg a new team member…Tash! You really need to check out her stuff!

I couldn’t decide what I was going to do for this challenge, I had an idea or two but nothing really came together. Then…I thought about what it was that got Peg and I thinking…we both had the same image and the same two pieces of patterned paper…and we built two totally different cards. The image was a Stampingbella image and using one sooo felt right for this occasion!

Love those balloons!

Be sure to check out the great projects the gals came up with and give them some love!

I’m off at Classic today to teach a Love throughout the Year card class! So if you’re bored, drop by in the afternoon and I’ll show you what I’ve been up to!
