Best Wishes - DCWV Stackaholic Card Challenge

Hi Crafty Friends!

I want to share with you a card I made for the DCWV April Stackaholic Card Challenge.  This was also my post on the PBD blog from Saturday.

Here is the card sketch:

I made this card for a co-worker who is moving on in his career.

The card base is 5 x 7 inches.  I wanted there to be plenty of room for eveyone to write a note to him.

The papers are all from the DCWV "Celebrations" stack.

The sentiment is from the Pink By Design "Scripted Year" set.

I hope you are able to join in on the challenges next month with DCWV.

Thanks for stopping by!

Congrats On Your New Job!

Beep Beep Birthday Boy!

Hi Everyone!

Today I'd like to share with you a card I made for my nephew's 4th birthday.





The card base is a stair-step fold. I cut it out of plain white cardstock, and then covered it with DCWV patterned paper.

The car, train, and truck are hand cut from a coordinating patterned paper.

The "4" is cut using Don Juan cartridge.

The cute little boy is "Beep Beep Jude" from Simply Betty Stamps. I colored him using Prismacolor pencils and odorless minerals spirits. My nephew has a Police Car Cozy Coupe that he rides around the house so I tried to make this look like him. Isn't he cute?!

I used an Action Wobble to mount him to the card (that's why the one pic is blury). Have you seen these? I can't believe that I've had them for a while and this is the first time I'm using them!

"Beep Beep" is from the Pink By Design "Ticket to Ride" sentiment set and "Celebrate" is from the "Big Thoughts" set.

I am entering this card in the Woble Wednesday Challenge here.

Timeless Twine's March Challenge

Hello Crafty Friends!

Today starts another challenge over at the Timeless Twine blog. This month is all about Eggs!

The rules are simple, just make something and include Timeless Twine (or embroidery floss if you don't have any) and an Egg. Pretty simple huh?

Here is my inspiration for you.



Supplies Used:
Patterned paper is from DCWV "Flower Shower" stack
Bunny is cut from the "Create a Critter" cartridge
Bunny face is from the Peachy Keen "Critter Faces" set, white gel pen, chalk
Sentiment is from the Pink By Design "Scripted Year" set
Timeless Twine in Aqua Blue, Bubblegum Pink, Lemonade Yellow, Pumpkin Orange, and Olive Green.

I made the eggs by cutting out 3 different size eggs from thick cardstock, adding sticky tape to bothe sides, and then carefully wrapping twine around.

Isn't this the prettiest twine? All of these pretty colors can be purchased here.

Now head on over to the Timeless Twine Blog and check out what all the designers have created, and be sure to link up your project too. You could win a fabulous prize!
