365 Cards Challenge Day 13

The challenge was to use the Sketch provided. I have started re thinking my card making. I do anywhere from 4-10 cards a week, More than I can use in a lifetime I think. I have planned on donating many of my cards to the Church Bizarre and to friend that is trying to raise money to go on a mission to Haiti. I have also started looking into Operation Write Home (http://www.owhstarsandstamps.org/) The guidelines for card submission are pretty specific but all with good reason so I thought I might start making some cards to send to them. At any rate here is my take on the sketch. I took it pretty literal. It is a 6 x 6 card so I will have to make the envelope. I used the creative memories circle cutting system to get my circles and the cuttlebug folder on the green. The main background paper is from a new DCWV paper pack I just bought. I love love love their papers, such pretty papers and a nice thick quality stock.

till next time keep creating.

My creative time throwback Thursday challenge

I had the real size dial on to cut the image on the front of the card. It is tough to see but the background is embossed with the cuttlebug stone script folder.

Flaunt it Fridays Challenge

The challenge was to use the Give a Hoot cart and make something. Well because I did not have that cart I had to improvise. I used my Gypsy and found a watering can on the walk in my Garden cart. I cut it and then cut off the spout and handle and now I had the trash can. I embossed with the cuttlebug. I then used the Mouse from the create a critter cart and embellished with googly eyes. Used and eyelet and some ribbon and Viola he or she pops out of the trash can.

The sentiment on the outside cut with Plantin School reads Don't waste and the pull out reads A single day.
