Soccer Birthday

Our granddaughter, Chloe, is an avid soccer player. So for her birthday I thought this card would be appropriate. Simple but fun. Thought I would share.
Thanks for looking.

Joy

This is a card I made for my dear friend Carol. I used the grapevine wreath from Obsession Impressions and then a little tulip stamp from my stash. I cut out the tulips which took some time. However I think it was worth it. There is a ribbon on the card too but hard to see from the scan. I decided this card would be sent to someone who would appreciate all the cutting.
Thanks for looking

OLW #84 Shoes

This weeks challenge comes from Susan at http://simplicitybylateblossom.blogspot.com/  We can use as many shades of pink (magenta, hot pink, baby pink, whatever) as we like, but only one shade of orange. We may use black or brown for the sentiment if we wish, but it's not necessary. As my friends know I love shoes. So this challenge was perfect. Stamps are Hero Arts. Ink pads on the shoes are Stampin'Up. The sentiment is Impressions Obsessions and is stamped with Memento. Thanks for looking.

OLW #81

This week's challenge is from Jennifer at http://stylesink.ca/2012/02/29/olw81-cream-black-and-bling/ It is to make a one layer card using cream, black and bling. As Jennifer said 'easy peasy' Right !  The card was easy to make but taking the picture is the hard part.  The card stock is vanilla from Stampin'Up. Trust me it is vanilla...it just doesn't look like it. The image is also Stampin'UP and the sentiment  and bling are from my collection. Thanks for looking.

OLW- 78 Circles Everywhere


Another great challenge from Susan at http://simplicitybylateblossom.blogspot.com/.

This weeks challenge was to make a one layered card using at least 5 circles. So here is my card. All stamps are by Stampin' Up. I used a Big and Juicy ink pad. I was susrprised with how it turned out. Thanks for looking.

OLW #75 Male Card.

Since I missed my other challenge (see below) here goes again.  This week's One-Layer Wednesday challenge is by http://simplicitybylateblossom.blogspot.com/.  It is to make a birthday card for a guy. I chose a stamps by Stampin'up  and the words by Amuse ( I think) I used copics to color the car and a multi colored pad for the tree. I also masked the car.  Hope you like it. Don't have anyone to send it to yet but I am sure I will have soon.

The stamp and sentiment are $1 stamp I picked up somewhere. Thought it was cute but never used it until now. Colored with Copics.
