Thinking of You Sebastian

Hi Everyone!!

I want you to read this....

I saw this over on Amy's Blog today and of course had to read more....

Amy has introduced us to Sebastian and his Teacher...and you can read all about them here.

WOW is all I have to say...what a sweet little man and I wanted to jump right in and make a card for him...

This will be going into the mail tomorrow and I do hope this will bring a smile to this very special little boy.

Thanks Amy for sharing Sebastian's Story!

"Boo" Halloween Card using Mini Monster's Cartridge

Morning Everyone!

I have a card to share today that I made for a few challenges.

I just recently picked up the Mini Monster's Cartridge on Ebay for a deal and have only played with it once.

Since Halloween is only a few weeks away I really wanted to play more with it.

Here is my creation~~

Spooky cute~don't you think?

For this card I used K & Company~Spook~Tacular paper that I just got from Michaels. Love this paper pack!!

I cut the ovals from George and Basic Shapes~one at 3 x 4 and the other 2.75 x 3.75

The ghost is from Mini Monsters and he is cut at 2.5. I cut all his layers and decided that these googly eyes made him look so much cuter.

I didn't have ribbon that matched so I used white grosgrain ribbon and colored it with my copics~V15. The picture is really hard to tell but it is a perfect match!

The sentiment is from Friskar's~Halloween Night Stamp set

Buttons are from my stash and I added Trendy Twine in Orange Licorice.

So what do you think?

This card is being entered into the following Challenges:

Sending You Birthday Wishes~ Challenge Card and A Halloween Card

Hi everyone!

I had a card all ready to post yesterday and I got too tired so I am posting double today.

The first one I made for two challenges:

The Ribbon Girl~ use ribbon

and

Birthday Sundaes~All about the Brads

OK so my card is a shape card using George and Basic Shapes Cartridge and welded on my gypsy.

The balloons are from Simply Charmed cut at 3.5" and I used the shadow feature as well.

I added the PKS faces~ Everyday Character and Simple Sallies.

I colored my own ribbon again using my copics and BV08 and R85.

I know the picture is not the greatest but the card base as well as the sentiment mat and ribbon are all purple and are all the same color.

So the sentiment is actually a dollar bin find that seemed to fit too good with my balloons :)

A little twine on the balloons, 3 purple brads, some white gel pen doodles and a paper clip to hold the sentiment and my card is complete!

So here is my second card.

I picked up this cute pumpkin die at the store the other day on clearance and of course had to give it a try :)



Cute little pumpkins....a very simple card using Cloud 9 Season Paper Stack and Fiskars Halloween Night sentiment.

I added more white gel pen doodles on my pumpkins and popped up the middle one for some dimension.

So thanks for stopping by and make sure you stop by tomorrow for another Paper Playtime challenge

 and a new Whimsical Wednesday challenge on Wednesday.

Have a GREAT night :)

Besties Always

Hi everyone!

I have a quick card to share with you...it is past my bedtime so sorry for the shortness :)

I posted yesterday about coloring my own ribbon...well I did it again!

I just LOVE how it turns out and I have a perfect match for my card.

I used Bugaboo's Deacon for this card and colored him with my copics.

I colored the ribbon with the same blue and green as in the digi.

I totally scrap lifted the flower embellishment idea from Tara over at Homemade Happiness~ I won a bunch of them from her not too long ago and fell in love with them. So I found the cuttlebug dies and made some of my own!

The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper~Pinka-licious.

I am entering this into the following Challenges:

Catch the Bug Challenge~ Anything Goes

More than Favors~ Wacky Wednesday #47 Friendship

I hope you like my card and thanks for stopping by.

Have a GREAT night!!
