Inky Paws Challenge #3

It's time for another Inky Paws Challenge over at Newton's Nook Designs.

Here was the sketch:

And here's what I came up with:

Since it's nearing the end of September, I thought it would be a great excuse to make some fall cards!!  I made this one using the stamp set Wagon of Wishes.  This set is so cute and perfect for fall...I love the little swirls mixed in with the leaves!  Like in my last card, I also used the single leaf from Prehistorical Pals.  They work so great together.  I added some fall-colored rhinestones, colored the leaves with stampin' up markers, and added a cute sentiment.

Challenge ends Friday, October 4th at midnight :)

Winnie the Pooh Card

I made this Winnie the Pooh Card as a thank you for Deb Hoffmann.  Last week, my friend Amber was looking for Eeyore stuff on ebay and she came across a box of stuff that Deb was selling.  Turns out she holds the Guinness World Record for the largest Pooh and Friends Memorabilia collection...and she lives in Waukesha!!! 

To make a long story short, she invited us over to see her amazing collection (currently at 9,864 items!)

Checkout some of the pooh stuff...they take up three whole bedrooms!!!

She even had a collection of Winnie the Pooh books and I got to take some home with me :)

Thank You Butterflies

This was my spring break project while I had the whole week off from work.  I started by making a set of color coordinating cards for my boyfriend's mom for to give as thank you's for a Mother's Helper donation project that she does every year for the kids at her school.  For the patterned paper, I used a bunch of different patterns from one of the huge packs of paper from Michaels.  They were really fun and easy to make, so I ended up making a bunch more for myself too!

 

 Materials Used:

• Cardstock: white, assorted colors
• Paper: assorted colors
• Ink: assorted colors
• Punches: scallop trim border punch, bitty butterfly punch, scallop punch
