Through Rain or Shine

Yep, you guessed it! It's another card I made for a Unity WCMD challenge. This time the challenge was to paper piece. You all know how much I love paper piecing, right?! I have 4 challenge cards down, which means only 19 to go...and I have 6 days left to do them. Let's take a vote -- do you think I'll make it? LOL! Anyway, on to the card. I used Unity's Rain or Shine Itty Bitty stamp. I paper pieced the image with 3 different patterned papers from Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday.

Just a note: to celebrate 10.10.10, I am having a 10% off sale in my Artfire store today! Click here to see what I have.

Post 3 in a Row! (and a Friends with Flair One At That!)

It's Friday. HOORAY!!
I don't know about you, but I'm happy that this week is almost over. My card for today is one I made for the WCMD challenge to use no patterned paper on my card. I used the Moments in Bloom store kit.

Next on the Friends with Flair list is Angie. Or go on back to the Unity blog to see all of the blogs participating.

Little Dude!

A friend asked me to make a birthday card for her one year old grandson. I made a few so she could choose the one she liked best. I saw this stamp from A Muse Arts that said "Happy birthday little dude!" and thought that would be cute for any little boy cards. So here are the cards that I made. I also bought some clear stamps (because they were cheap!), and by stamping them in VersaMark first and then in the colored ink, they actually turned out pretty well. I wasn't nearly as frustrated as before. I'm making baby steps, here. :)

This card uses Karen Foster Designs cardstock stickers, Cosmo Crickets Mr. Campy patterned paper, and the A Muse stamp on the inside. The "Spend Your Day" part was just printed and then I used some Tim Holtz distressed ink on the paper.

This card uses stamps from KaiserCraft, Cosmo Cricket Mr. Campy and Jillibean Soup patterned paper. I used Liquid Applique to puff out the trail behind the airplane, and Labels 1 Nestabilities.

This last card doesn't look too much like a little boy card, I know. She told me that he likes to play the drums and I couldn't come up with anything for drums. So I went with music notes instead. The stamps are from We R Memory Keepers and A Muse. Paper is Jillibean Soup. I also used some nestabilities for the rectangles.
So, which one would you pick? She actually picked my favorite -- the playin' in the mud card.
I keep thinking it's Friday, which is making this week seem a little long. So, have a happy THURSDAY!

A WCMD Sketch Card

I placed a small order on Saturday from Limelight to celebrate World Card Making Day and would you believe I got it in the mail today?! Quick shipping! Since Wednesday is my day off, I decided to use my new paper and stamps. I made this card for the Unity WCMD Sketch Challenge. You can find the challenge here if you're interested in playing along. This new paper from Jillibean Soup is so cute -- I love these little monsters! And the Unity stamp just goes perfect with the paper!

Back to work tomorrow. Only two days until Saturday! :)

Limelight and Unity

Hi all! Thanks to World Card Making Day, I actually have something to post on my blog! This is a card that I did using the Limelight Papercrafts sketch and also doing a Unity challenge to use stitching on my card.

I hope everybody enjoyed their WCMD. Hopefully I'll have some more cards to post soon!
