Linnecards Card-Ability Challenge #4

This is the first card I have worked on in over 2 weeks. My little boy and I have both been sick. I feel much better, but he still feels a little under the weather. We have had such pretty springtime weather for the past few days, but it is raining out today. Maybe it will help my tulips to bloom.
This is the second time I have joined in at the Linnecards Challenge blog. They always have such great sketches and this week has been one of my favorites. For this card I used: Paper-Making Memories, K by Marcella, and the Paper Company. The cute bird image is by Pink Petticoat. It is colored with Pebbles Chalk.

2 Sketches 4 You

The 2 Sketches 4 You challenge this week was such a great sketch. I used purple card stock background, with Lilac Beaded Blossom paper by The Paper Company. I Hallmark ribbon and yarn with sliver threads. The bird image is a download stamp image from Pink Petticoat.

Spring? (Pink Elephant and Linnecards Challenges)

It was so pretty outside yesterday. My little boy and I were out almost all day. We had so much fun. Cameron got a John Deer Power Wheel for Christmas this past year, that he was afraid of until yesterday. He almost drove it all the way across our backyard, then he jumped off and said "I go swing". Which has to be his favorite outdoor activity. The picture at the bottom I took on accident. But I thought it turned out kind of cool.

This card I made for two challenges. It is the first time I combined two challenges. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be. The Pink Elephant challenge this week was to use ribbon and die cuts. Then Linnecards Card-Ability was a sketch. I used sold colored card stock in white, light blue and navy blue. I used offray ribbon for the bow. Then the BOY die cuts is from American Traditional Designs. I used blue ink to highlight it.

2 SKETCHES 4 YOU LAURA'S SKETCH 20

Well, eastern Ky is expecting more snow tonight. Not much of a change there. Today my little one decided he liked Thomas the Train. All day long, we have watched the same episode of the "cho cho". To bad a different episode only comes on once a week.
This week's sketch was so much fun. I used yellow card stock as my background and top layers. The yellow and white middle layer is paper from Frances Meyer, Inc. The bow is made from navy blue netting material. I used blue ink, a lot of blue ink. The little bear image is a download from Pink Petticoat. They have lots of cute little items. The Thinking of You sticker is by paper crafts.

2 Sketches 4 You Kazan's Sketch 20

The 2 Sketches 4 You challenge this week was a big challenge for me. So I dug through all my supplies and this is what I came up with. My nephew is turning 3 today, so this is his birthday card. I started with plain white card stock. I then used a scrap piece of polka dot material and used red thread to outline it. I used left over ribbon and button. The tag is by K&Company. The sticker are extras from a scrapbook project.

Pink Elephant- Challenge 2

This week's Pink Elephant challenge was to create a card with some sparkle. This challenge was so much fun. I got a chance to use some of my goodies that I don't often use. For this card I used blue card stock as a background. I cut the foiled floral paper(Heidi grace designs-midnight kisses) in a curve. I added a shimmering iridescent ruffle ribbon(Offray). The daises are by Martha Stewart, I added some glitter glue to them. Letters are from K&Company Glittered Twinkle Type.
