It's anniversary time over at Papertrey Ink. Yay! Eight great years!! And there is lots of celebrating going on. The releases, the projects, the challenges, the prizes... So much fun!<br />
<br />
Day 2 is all about Maile Belles. The challenge is to make a card inspired by one of Maile's. And it certainly isn't hard to be inspired by her creations. The hard part is picking just one!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UxWdKbjjKIA/VNfxuGhrj5I/AAAAAAAAAqI/tts3brRQ6Lg/s1600/IMG_6202.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UxWdKbjjKIA/VNfxuGhrj5I/AAAAAAAAAqI/tts3brRQ6Lg/s1600/IMG_6202.jpg" height="640" width="538" /></a></div>
It was fun looking through tons of Maile's cards... and, yes, I couldn't narrow down one card for my inspiration. I decided to create with a 'style' that Maile made very popular. The 'tilted' panels. Adding that tilt is so simple, yet makes such a big impact.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DVvcFKz5AQs/VNfxlfsNz4I/AAAAAAAAAp8/8kBAGKVwMwI/s1600/IMG_6203.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DVvcFKz5AQs/VNfxlfsNz4I/AAAAAAAAAp8/8kBAGKVwMwI/s1600/IMG_6203.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
This starburst background is one of my favorites. Here it makes me think of a camera flash with the polaroid frame. I die cut the '2' a few times and layered them up for a little added thickness.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-svTMeN8MSqY/VNfxpwkumXI/AAAAAAAAAqE/3tUkhdTd8N8/s1600/IMG_6204.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-svTMeN8MSqY/VNfxpwkumXI/AAAAAAAAAqE/3tUkhdTd8N8/s1600/IMG_6204.jpg" height="300" width="400" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This sentiment, from a Studio Calico set, fit nicely at the bottom of the frame. Some extra stars were stamped underneath... I really like this little addition. Subtle and sweet ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Hello there! Have you seen the cue card over at CAS-ology? Things are getting HOT over there... and I've got a card to add some flames to the fire. *wink*<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://casology.blogspot.com/2015/02/week-132-hot.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="http://casology.blogspot.com/2015/02/week-132-hot.html" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7Giy2Qq_0F4/VLgduEzYBcI/AAAAAAAAMt0/Z65D_y5vu6g/s1600/Week%2B132%2B-%2BHot.jpg" height="169" width="200" /></a></div>
I purchased some embossing folders awhile ago... and one of them was this flame background. NBUS, anyone? So, I was very excited to bust this out when I saw the word 'HOT'. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aR_JXvfrScE/VNfySRYmMMI/AAAAAAAAAqo/YvbhKtKKSn8/s1600/IMG_6213.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aR_JXvfrScE/VNfySRYmMMI/AAAAAAAAAqo/YvbhKtKKSn8/s1600/IMG_6213.jpg" height="640" width="506" /></a></div>
I embossed some white cardstock and die cut a heart out. Then, I sponged some yellow, orange, and red ink over the flames. So much fun! After searching through some sentiments, I decided to create my own. Once again, I found myself making foam letters... with more sponging of ink, some letter die cuts, and adhesive foam board. Then a couple sentiment strips and more foam adhesive were added to complete my card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NPe2iz896_U/VNfyPVNESmI/AAAAAAAAAqg/QhElvWjeMro/s1600/IMG_6209.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NPe2iz896_U/VNfyPVNESmI/AAAAAAAAAqg/QhElvWjeMro/s1600/IMG_6209.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
I'm just thrilled to have had this inspiration. Now, I have this card ready to give my hubs for Valentine's Day. Yay! Are you feeling the heat? There's a little more time to link up over at CAS-ology.<br />

I couldn't resist playing along when I saw this challenge. The inspiration photo at <a href="http://thecardconcept.blogspot.com/2015/01/challenge-27-love.html" target="_blank">The Card Concept</a> is so fun! Seriously... the wood grain, yarn wrapped letters, a heart banner... </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
need I say more? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://thecardconcept.blogspot.com/2015/01/challenge-27-love.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="http://thecardconcept.blogspot.com/2015/01/challenge-27-love.html" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0eW6FHAjU0o/VFauVn4cvYI/AAAAAAAAZRE/iv5ShO1Txtc/s1600/27.png" height="320" width="245" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hRBY_4-L-uk/VM1Oson3mBI/AAAAAAAAApg/ge9_MLX9s_Q/s1600/IMG_6160.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hRBY_4-L-uk/VM1Oson3mBI/AAAAAAAAApg/ge9_MLX9s_Q/s1600/IMG_6160.jpg" height="640" width="478" /></a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I just loved the yarn wrapped letters. So, I found some wood arrow
embellishments and wrapped them with some floss in similar colors to the
picture. These arrows were then adhered to some hearts that I die cut
and layered together. Then I hand wrote 'love' for the finishing touch.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was the first time that I have used wood veneer with a
die cut. It cut amazingly! And I look forward to using it again in
the future. How about you? Have you die cut wood veneer before?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well, thank you for stopping by. There are so many great cards submitted for this challenge. I really appreciate that you chose to come check out what I made. Oh, and I'm also linking up over at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge 'anything goes'.<br />

<br />
Hello! I am so excited... because today is the 25th of the month. Which means Blog Hop<br />
over at Papertrey Ink.... And I have a card to share! Yeah!!<br />
<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Again, I found a pocket card among my collection from Studio Calico Project Life kits. This card had these lovely hearts on it which I then fussy cut... Then I die cut that swirly 'hello'. The scripty swirls make me swoon... This die is from Studio Calico. It is NBUS that is going to get lots of use!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j2A7U8YK_PU/VMVkv_nFx-I/AAAAAAAAApE/47bnGFp0DQ4/s1600/IMG_6139.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j2A7U8YK_PU/VMVkv_nFx-I/AAAAAAAAApE/47bnGFp0DQ4/s1600/IMG_6139.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I stamped 'friend' from the Wet Paint set by PTI using Smoky Shadow ink. This was on a strip of white cardstock adhered directly to the white card base. I'm really diggin' the mix of the swirly font of the die with the crisp linear font of the stamp. Then, foam adhesive was used to adhere the hearts. And a few white sequins were the finishing touch.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OL_LPMatKKA/VMVk0XoLqsI/AAAAAAAAApM/SBdLN8z4iF4/s1600/IMG_6140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OL_LPMatKKA/VMVk0XoLqsI/AAAAAAAAApM/SBdLN8z4iF4/s1600/IMG_6140.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Not only was I thinking of a special friend, but I had a few other challenges in mind while I was creating it, too. The cue card at <a href="http://casology.blogspot.com/2015/01/week-130-friend.html" target="_blank">CASology</a> is 'friend'... The <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-have-a-heart-2/" target="_blank">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge</a> is 'Have a Heart'... And I love the sketches over at <a href="http://casethissketch.blogspot.ca/2015/01/case-this-sketch-107.html" target="_blank">CAS(E) this sketch</a>. I usually take sketches very literal. So, I really enjoyed stretching the creative limit on this one. Too much fun! </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Hello there! I'm so happy to be here posting a new card for <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/01/make-it-monday-197-homemade-foam-stickers.html" target="_blank">Make it Monday</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This week, Laurie shows us how to make our own foam stickers. Cool, huh?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Plus, the <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-its-a-guy-thing/" target="_blank">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge</a> is 'It's a Guy Thing'. Which</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
is great because I have another masculine birthday card. With more to come, too! </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-X6hZuGnKiNY/VLq_ZdOKQbI/AAAAAAAAAoc/xBVhadFymOw/s1600/hooray3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-X6hZuGnKiNY/VLq_ZdOKQbI/AAAAAAAAAoc/xBVhadFymOw/s1600/hooray3.jpg" height="640" width="500" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I certainly had a 'why didn't I think of this?' moment, and couldn't wait to give</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
homemade foam stickers a try. I decided to use some fun foam that I had in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
my stash. Let me tell you, this stuff cuts amazingly with the die cuts! Again,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
'why didn't I think of this?'. Simply brilliant!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, with some fun foam and a PTI number die, I cut out this big cool '3' to be</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
the star of this card. Then I found this stripey pocket card from a Studio Calico</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
project life kit. With this, I die cut three candles with another PTI die. The</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
sentiments were stamped from a set I received in a Studio Calico kit. This set</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
actually falls in the <a href="http://www.djkardkreations.com/2015/01/happy-new-year-2015-nbus-challenge-3.html" target="_blank">NBUS</a> category... Love that I'm using my NBUS more now</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
than ever! Thanks again, Darnell!! Finally, I decided that the space of the die </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
cut candles really needed to be stamped with the coordinating set, Make A Wish,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
for visual happiness. I'm sure the little guy who is going to be receiving this </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
card would totally agree. *wink* So, I stamped those candles, popped up the </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
stripey layer, and adhered the '3'. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
Voilà! Another masculine card for a special little guy. Too much fun!<br />
It's getting a little late to join in over at Make it Monday... But, I really<br />
recommend giving a try at making homemade foam stickers. I know<br />
I'll be making more of my own in the future. Until then, thanks for<br />
stopping by. And I hope you visit again soon!<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. I've got a card to share today. I made this </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
one for my brother-in-law's birthday. It was on Sunday and he already got this</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the mail. So, no spoiler alert here. ~ Hope you had a great day, Kelly!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-av013BWcWAc/VLXD2Pu7RzI/AAAAAAAAAns/Q5QjckX7Lv8/s1600/hey%2Bhey.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-av013BWcWAc/VLXD2Pu7RzI/AAAAAAAAAns/Q5QjckX7Lv8/s1600/hey%2Bhey.jpg" height="640" width="497" /></a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, have you heard all about 'NBUS'? You probably have... But, just in case, </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
NBUS stands for <b>N</b>ever <b>B</b>efore <b>U</b>sed <b>S</b>chtuff. Yep! The brilliant Darnell over</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at <a href="http://www.djkardkreations.com/" target="_blank">djkardkreations</a> invented this little beauty of an acronym. Then she created </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a challenge for us all to join in on the fun of using our NBUS with her... Yeah!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found my inspiration from this <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/.a/6a00d8341c64e753ef01b8d0b55453970c-pi" target="_blank">card</a>. It is in the Signatures Sketches from</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
January's Inspiration Archive at Nichole Heady's blog, <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/01/january-2015-inspiration-archive.html" target="_blank">Capture the Moment</a>.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also used the color combo from the Color Play. Beautiful colors, huh?</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And since I hadn't busted out my Ombre Builders stamp set yet... Well, it</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just seemed like a perfect way to use some of my NBUS. Too much fun!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0-KSVl_oHZs/VLXEDO6jsqI/AAAAAAAAAn0/iO8oS3nGj0c/s1600/hey%2Bhey%2Bcu.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0-KSVl_oHZs/VLXEDO6jsqI/AAAAAAAAAn0/iO8oS3nGj0c/s1600/hey%2Bhey%2Bcu.JPG" height="292" width="400" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The sentiment is from a set that I got in a Studio Calico kit. Each line is a</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
different stamp. So, it was really easy to create each strip. Then I popped</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
them up with some foam adhesive. That gave the card just the right amount</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of extra touch that I felt it needed. Masculine cards... keep 'em CAS, right?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you get a chance to create with your NBUS and join the fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Bonus: <a href="http://casology.blogspot.com/2015/01/week-129-nbus.html" target="_blank">CAS-ology</a> has joined in on the NBUS craze and their current</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
challenge's cue card is NBUS. Thank you, Darnell. You inspire so many!</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back again with another card for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the inspiration combo that I chose to work with...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here is my card...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jxZg9qOwBWk/UhqafCnAyYI/AAAAAAAAAf8/-fdVC4afBK4/s1600/aug+pti+hop+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jxZg9qOwBWk/UhqafCnAyYI/AAAAAAAAAf8/-fdVC4afBK4/s400/aug+pti+hop+2.jpg" width="298" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pie pieces on the sketch had me wanting to make a folded/layered burlap flower.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The rest just came together and was so much fun!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />Gotta run... Happy Hopping!</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today is the day for the August Blog Hop over at <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2013/08/august-2013-blog-hop.html" target="_blank">Papertrey Ink</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are so many great sketches, color combos, and inspiration photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beware of possible stimulation overload!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2013/08/august-2013-blog-hop.html" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RzgF44WpSHQ/Uhp3KNtlvKI/AAAAAAAAAfY/F_eGtXbvFnQ/s320/6a00d8341c64e753ef01901ed359ee970b-450wi.jpg" width="294" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
See what I mean?!? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I couldn't resist this sketch and color combo. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With that amazing cake for inspiration, a birthday card was in order. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4oJy_Py3PqI/Uhp2QYlNtII/AAAAAAAAAfQ/hPmIuitKBOo/s1600/aug+pti+hop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4oJy_Py3PqI/Uhp2QYlNtII/AAAAAAAAAfQ/hPmIuitKBOo/s400/aug+pti+hop.jpg" width="298" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And lots of glitter!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lot and lots of glitter!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JC_ZhF3DREI/Uhp2I03qv7I/AAAAAAAAAfM/qUytk2JhkTc/s1600/aug+pti+hop+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JC_ZhF3DREI/Uhp2I03qv7I/AAAAAAAAAfM/qUytk2JhkTc/s320/aug+pti+hop+cu.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To achieve these glittery strips, I used 1/2" Scor-Tape on the color coordinating cardstock. Then I cut my strips to size, removed the backing of the Scor-Tape, and then covered the sticky side with glitter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm hoping to get another card made and linked up for the hop today...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If not, I've got these beauty sketches ready for future cards (wink).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks a bunch for stopping by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy hopping!!</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While my daughter is napping, I found some time to sneak away to make a card for a dear friend of mine. She had hip replacement surgery the other day and I thought a cheery card will go nicely with the dinner I'm delivering her family tomorrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I recently picked up a pack of printed cardstock chips by Pebbles. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A really great assortment of goodies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This flower bouquet was among them and thought my friend would like this color combo.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sketch is from a new challenge out there called <a href="http://seizethesketch.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Seize the Sketch</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The link had already closed by the time I made this card, but I just love this sketch!!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hello!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There is a BIG Birthday Bash going on over at the <a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Pink Posh</a> blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Celebrating one year of <a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/2013/08/10-minute-craft-dash-birthday-bash.html" target="_blank">10 Minute Craft Dash</a> challenges.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I knew I had to join the fun, but it wasn't until I got my Studio Calico Project Life kit for this month that I knew what my card design would be. Among the 3x4 PL cards, I found this little darling that simply said 'food & fun'. It screamed to be used on a birthday card!<br />
<br />
So, with this card and a few other supplies, I went to work against the clock. Again, I tried to make my card at a normal pace... but, as soon as I see the timer pass 3 minutes the pace starts to pick up. Then, after 5 minutes, the pace gets even faster. At eight minutes the panic really sets in. Finally, relief settles in after hitting stop on timer with a finished card.<br />
<br />
9:04.8<br />
<br />
This was a close one!<br />
I think the sequin placements took up the most time, too. Not to mention the fact that the final card never quite turns out exactly how you had envisioned. All part of the fun!<br />
<br />

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It feels like forever since I last posted...<br />
I've been busy driving across the state with my daughter to visit with my mom and sister. Then upon returning home, we've had back to back guests at our house! But, I couldn't let the current challenges over at <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2013/08/cfc111.html" target="_blank">Cas-ual Fridays</a> and <a href="http://casethissketch.blogspot.ca/2013/08/case-this-sketch-40.html" target="_blank">CAS(e) this Sketch</a> slip by.</div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
I love using buttons! My collection is larger than I'd like to admit.<br />
However, they are organized in little jars by color which just makes me smile.<br />
<br />
For my card, I decided to go with a buttoned fashion theme.<br />
Dress form, pins, ribbon, buttons...<br />

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, I'm back with another card covered in triangles...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What can I say? Triangles are trendy-riffic!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-de_IEysM3Gk/Uf7LvD5W9uI/AAAAAAAAAck/zlTqjjIKunc/s1600/angle+day.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-de_IEysM3Gk/Uf7LvD5W9uI/AAAAAAAAAck/zlTqjjIKunc/s640/angle+day.jpg" width="475" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had this thought to use some larger and longer triangles. After much playing, I landed on this layered alternating pattern. I adhered them to the white panel, added a sentiment and a few enamel dots, and then placed that to the card base with some foam tape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zWGa27wyYvs/Uf7L4UlmSFI/AAAAAAAAAcw/JkWiCW6DMnw/s1600/angle+day+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zWGa27wyYvs/Uf7L4UlmSFI/AAAAAAAAAcw/JkWiCW6DMnw/s400/angle+day+cu.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The colors over at <a href="http://colourq.blogspot.com/2013/07/colourq-challenge-200.html" target="_blank">colourQ</a> were too hard to resist. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I used my best matching cardstock in order to play along.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://This time I've incorporated the current colors from colourQ. " target="_blank"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_oOmDKeiIXk/Uf7Mj1fu2yI/AAAAAAAAAc0/z0GCMAVJ340/s320/cqc200.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus, the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/07/the-trendy-triangles-challenge.html" target="_blank">Trendy Triangle Challenge</a> is still open over at <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/" target="_blank">Moxie Fab World</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you joined in on the fun over there yet? You really should!</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure that you've been seeing triangles all over the place these days...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
△▽△▽ They are so trendy! △▽△▽</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, add to that a triangle filled challenge over at <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/07/the-trendy-triangles-challenge.html" target="_blank">Moxie Fab World</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And my card... I couldn't resist!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6V1H8xuJSgE/Uf2LhOhWaQI/AAAAAAAAAcU/cf9FG1TV0vE/s1600/triangle+celebrate.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6V1H8xuJSgE/Uf2LhOhWaQI/AAAAAAAAAcU/cf9FG1TV0vE/s640/triangle+celebrate.jpg" width="475" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No surprise in finding a pattern paper with triangles in the ol' stash. To that, add some more triangle goodness with fun triangle strips cut from a Papertrey Ink cover plate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zmHq7iGy3ME/Uf2LbDltwzI/AAAAAAAAAcQ/Q94H1DbcjqU/s1600/tri+celebrate+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zmHq7iGy3ME/Uf2LbDltwzI/AAAAAAAAAcQ/Q94H1DbcjqU/s400/tri+celebrate+cu.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With the pattern and the strips, it felt like confetti and streamers to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, a celebration sentiment finished off the card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, with this triangle filled post, I can't help but send a shout out to all my Tri-Delt sisters out there! And a big 'Thanks' to you for stopping by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a card that I want to post for the current <a href="http://retrosketches.blogspot.com/2013/07/retrosketches-74.html" target="_blank">Retro Sketches</a> challenge.<br />
The link is literally closing in minutes, so I'm going to keep this quick. </div>

Loved playing with some negative die cuts, too.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've been saving (hoarding) the paper from this Echo Park pattern pad.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But, I felt it was time to put it to good use.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So many fun goodies were busted out, too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
♡♡♡ </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Glitter tape, sequins, and some zing embossing powder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was certainly a fun sketch to work with. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Great inspiration!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's really late here, but I couldn't pass up the chance to play along with the current <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/07/tuesday-trigger-painterly-palette.html" target="_blank">Tuesday Trigger</a> over at the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/" target="_blank">Moxie Fab World</a> blog. Check out the inspiration...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/07/tuesday-trigger-painterly-palette.html" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="209" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QywrLMxywG4/UfSz4f_r0uI/AAAAAAAAAbQ/qSATn9eDgk8/s320/+A+Painterly+Palette.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How lovely are these colors? <br />
Funny, but I was really drawn to the grey shapes between the paints that were created by their shadows. So, that is where I started with my design.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-9tRKdZI8I/UfS0Ip0opaI/AAAAAAAAAbY/Y6dkM-kiZr8/s1600/TT+butterfly.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-9tRKdZI8I/UfS0Ip0opaI/AAAAAAAAAbY/Y6dkM-kiZr8/s640/TT+butterfly.jpg" width="476" /></a></div>
<br />
Next, I added butterflies punched out from cardstock that best matched the colors in the inspiration photo. Then finished it off with a little sentiment in the corner.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Well, I'm off to bed now.<br />
Thanks so much for stopping by!<br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you tried the <a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/2013/07/10-minute-craft-dash-22.html" target="_blank">10 Minute Craft Dash</a> Challenge? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/2013/07/10-minute-craft-dash-22.html" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="115" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PHybRDWN5OU/UfLSO4ZRqYI/AAAAAAAAAaI/39yYBca6hpE/s200/CD_22.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think I'm hooked!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus, the new challenge consists of a fun color combo which was hard to resist. As Paulina said so herself, "...a fresh color palette that can be used for all sorts of occasions."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S_9aGbKZnt8/UfLdr7OMMlI/AAAAAAAAAa4/Dcp0vKRlF-w/s1600/i+love+you.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="327" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S_9aGbKZnt8/UfLdr7OMMlI/AAAAAAAAAa4/Dcp0vKRlF-w/s400/i+love+you.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The current sketch over at <a href="http://retrosketches.blogspot.com/2013/07/retrosketches-73.html" target="_blank">Retro Sketches</a> looked really fun. So, I decided to combine the challenges. I don't know about you, but I haven't made a square card in <i>forever</i>! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://retrosketches.blogspot.com/2013/07/retrosketches-73.html" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Arc3D_QXe28/UfLSQg38YBI/AAAAAAAAAaQ/1y3Q4wZX8uY/s200/rs72.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With sketch and design in mind, I gathered up some supplies & tools, hit start on the good ol' iphone stopwatch, and proceeded to make my card. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">8:30.3</span></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Whoo-hoo!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With this card, I really tried hard to go at a normal pace instead of the insane speed I used the first time I tried this timed challenge. However, when those minutes started accumulating, my pace certainly began to pick up as well. (haha!) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZCn3epPPNg/UfLdivmYCdI/AAAAAAAAAaw/A99RmoPnvqg/s1600/i+love+you+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZCn3epPPNg/UfLdivmYCdI/AAAAAAAAAaw/A99RmoPnvqg/s400/i+love+you+cu.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus, I thought I'd use my foam dots instead of cutting foam pieces from a roll to save time... Not so much. I found that I have a harder time getting the backs off of the dots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh well. I learn something new with every challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping by!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The card I'm sharing today fits a few different challenges...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I typically don't combine challenges, but this time it just kind of all came together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jW3YQ0dd20E/Ue7Q5BV1XnI/AAAAAAAAAZI/k7oqgiXe5IE/s1600/2468+number+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jW3YQ0dd20E/Ue7Q5BV1XnI/AAAAAAAAAZI/k7oqgiXe5IE/s400/2468+number+cu.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The challenge over at <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2013/07/cfc110.html" target="_blank">Cas-ual Fridays</a> is to include numbers. The chant, "2, 4, 6, 8, who do we appreciate" popped in to my head... And, so I decided to create a thank you card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Next, I chose a color combo from the <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2013/07/july-2013-blog-hop-.html" target="_blank">PTI Blog Hop "Fruits of Summer"</a>. This took awhile with so many wonderful combos to chose from! Finally the citrus combo came out the favorite, but I ended up dropping the orange from the group...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
How to add a sentiment stumped me at first. The thing was that I didn't want to cover the numbers too much. Then I drew inspiration from Nicole over at PTI. I've always liked the look of her vellum sentiment strips, so I thought I'd give it a shot here. Viola!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I was inspired by the sketch over at <a href="http://casethissketch.blogspot.ca/2013/07/case-this-sketch-37.html" target="_blank">CAS(E) this Sketch</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just finished my card for this week's challenge over at <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2013/07/cfc109.html" target="_blank">Cas-ual Fridays</a>.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been working this design in my head for days now. Thought I had it figured out when I went to bed last night... But, a couple more changes were made this morning when I went to create it. The whole time though, I tried to keep in mind the advice to 'watch our white space'. Turned out to be 'cream space' for this card. (wink)</div>

Hi there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've got a little card to share with you for the current </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/06/tuesday-trigger-scene-in-tangerine.html" target="_blank">Tuesday Trigger</a> challenge over at the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/" target="_blank">Moxie Fab World</a> blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, a peak at the inspiration photo. Fun, right? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-85uQ95jUHbo/UeHUQe5Dx3I/AAAAAAAAAWI/zpAIdjIgxb0/s1600/Scene+in+Tangerine.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-85uQ95jUHbo/UeHUQe5Dx3I/AAAAAAAAAWI/zpAIdjIgxb0/s320/Scene+in+Tangerine.jpg" width="212" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The rick-rack on the kraft really spoke to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love the color combo, too!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NU8Ug2gH04E/UeHTyLJAZ3I/AAAAAAAAAV4/lStBo0IohTY/s1600/sunshine+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NU8Ug2gH04E/UeHTyLJAZ3I/AAAAAAAAAV4/lStBo0IohTY/s640/sunshine+.jpg" width="475" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Starting with a kraft card base, I then decided to have another kraft panel popped up with some large orange rick-rack tucked behind going down the side. A few small yellow rick-rack strips were then added to the top panel. More die cuts were made to create the flower with a fancy fun embellished center that was placed next to the sentiment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XfaQGpatUnU/UeHTzJObixI/AAAAAAAAAWA/GAPUAIVDve8/s1600/sunshine+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XfaQGpatUnU/UeHTzJObixI/AAAAAAAAAWA/GAPUAIVDve8/s400/sunshine+cu.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
To stack the sentiment like this, I ended up cutting my stamp. This is something that I never would have considered in the past, but I have become a little more comfortable with the idea. How about you? Are you more likely to do some masking or some careful cutting?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Thanks so much for visiting!<br />
Hope you'll come back soon.<br />
<br />
xo,<br />

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm here to share my first attempt at the <i>'10 minute craft dash challenge'</i> from</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the <a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Pink Posh</a> blog by Paulina. Not only are we challenged to create a card in</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10 minutes, but this week the challenge includes featuring stars in your design.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_Gp-z1FONGA/Ud-QUFkuW3I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/jM9UJ_E5nhc/s1600/star+baby.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_Gp-z1FONGA/Ud-QUFkuW3I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/jM9UJ_E5nhc/s400/star+baby.jpg" width="297" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I collected the supplies that I thought I'd need to make this card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I hit start on my iphone stopwatch and proceeded to create. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">9:42.7</span></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I actually made a card in the 10 minutes time.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r1C_BVcxg84/Ud-QfZk-e7I/AAAAAAAAAVY/OQMXeLJpWbI/s1600/star+baby+cu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r1C_BVcxg84/Ud-QfZk-e7I/AAAAAAAAAVY/OQMXeLJpWbI/s320/star+baby+cu.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Going in to this challenge, I knew that it was going to be really difficult for me because I usually take <i>forever</i>! When all was done, I realized that I had learned a few things about how I typically work. First, I change my mind <i>a lot</i> during the course of making a card. This doesn't help when the clock is ticking. Yes, the card that I finished was not what I had originally planned. It wasn't that far off though either. Next, I noticed that I am a 'clean as you' crafter. With this challenge I did not stop to clean <i>anything</i> in my workspace & it really showed! I was in an official disaster zone when I looked up from my finished card. (haha!)</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All in all, a super fun challenge. I recommend everyone give it a go. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you, Paulina, for bringing us the '<a href="http://prettypinkposh.com/2013/07/10-minute-craft-dash-21.html" target="_blank">10 minute craft dash</a>'.</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's <i><span style="color: #f1c232;">Birthday Creation Week</span></i> over at the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/" target="_blank">Moxie Fab World</a> Blog. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, today I have a little something to share for the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/07/birthday-creations-week-tags-wraps.html" target="_blank">Tags & Wraps Challenge</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This baby shower gift was a lot of fun to put together. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pic below will give you a better look...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a kraft, white, and yellow color combo. This matched the monkey themed gifts I put together for my friend and baby (hehe). I've added a little widget on the side to share these gifts with you. These are just some of my favorite baby goodies.<br />

Hello! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm back with another card for the challenge over at <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2013/07/cfc108.html" target="_blank">CAS-ual Fridays</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: orange;"><span style="line-height: 21px;"><span style="line-height: normal;"><b>CFC108: Create a CAS project that has some sort of a material, i.e. fabric, felt, canvas etc</b></span></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once again, my dear little daughter helped inspire my card. She was playing with my rolls of felt and the color combos she kept coming up with were so pretty. So, I thought a little rainbow of colored letters would make nice & cheery card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My goal was to keep it CAS. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Believe me the wheels were spinning, but I'm glad to have used the brakes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the popped up white panel, I did a little gold embossing... and that's really it! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do you remember or have those little magnetic letters? I think they were Fischer Price??</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, I keep thinking of those every time I look at these pictures. (haha) </div>

Hello & welcome my fellow happy campers!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a birthday card to share with you that I've made for my father-in-law.</div>

I just love <a href="http://dawnmcvey.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ef2e2998833019103e6733a970c-popup" target="_blank">this card</a> by Dawn McVey. She posted it <a href="http://dawnmcvey.typepad.com/these_are_a_few_of_my_fav/2013/06/studio-calicos-valley-high-revealed.html" target="_blank">here</a> along with a bunch of other lovely cards for the kits over at Studio Calico this month. I felt that it would make for a perfect layout to make this birthday card. Thanks for the inspiration, Dawn!</div>

One of my Father-in-Law's favorite places on this planet is Priest Lake, ID. I know he just can't wait to take his granddaughter camping there. Maybe this summer we can make this wish come true... Until then, I hope he enjoys this campy style card. </div>

Ahoy there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How about a little nautical themed card today?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xoz5gt4dxFU/UddDa-siw9I/AAAAAAAAAR8/5jzRZThF704/s1600/ahoy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xoz5gt4dxFU/UddDa-siw9I/AAAAAAAAAR8/5jzRZThF704/s400/ahoy.jpg" width="297" /> </a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was completely inspired to make this card after visiting the <a href="http://musecardclub.blogspot.com/2013/07/muse-challenge-24.html" target="_blank">Muse challenge blog</a>. It's my first time joining this challenge. After seeing the Muse card, which I remember seeing the first time Laurie posted it... and which also got me to order this circle border die... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well, I jumped at the chance to CASE it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
As you can see, I was inspired by the sketch, the textured background, the layers, the circle border die, and an element of fiber. I ended up creating my own sentiment with Illustrator. It reminds me of the beautiful Signature Series stamps from PTI. The pattern paper is from the Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm collection. Seriously one of my favorite paper pads! The pearl 'bubbles' were a complete after thought, but I like the element they add.<br />
