Playing along with a few challenges

After recovering from a three week vacation in a travel trailer all the way to New Hampshire and back (to visit my husband's son), I finally have some time to play on a few challenges. The Words to Craft by blog had this challenge for August/September.
 The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.  ~~ Lao-Tzu
Here's my take on the challenge.


Grab Our Blinky!

The sentiment is Impression Obsession but the rest of the cards is from the Club Scrap Navigation kit.  I am also entering this in Darnell's NBUS (Never Before Used Schtuff) challenge #7 since I have had this sentiment for a long time but this is the first time it has seen ink.  

Happy Crafting!

Cards in Envy Square Challenge

The new challenge on the Cards in Envy blog is "Hip to be Square."  Show us your square cards or cards with square shapes on them.  Here's mine.

There's a store in Golden Colorado that takes used craft items and quilt fabric.  One of the owners has had several classes on how to make these beautiful paper quilts in different designs.  It takes a lot of patience to work with those tiny paper squares but I am pleased with the results.  Hop on over to the Cards in Envy blog and see what the rest of the design team did.  Then link up your square card or a card with squares on it.  Remember we don't have a card size restriction but your card must be thin enough to fit in a standard mailing envelope.

Happy Crafting!

Cards in Envy Wings Challenge

It is time for a new challenge on the Cards in Envy blog.  This time we want to see wings on your cards ... bugs, butterflies, fairies, angels, etc.  I decided that a bird would be perfect and that I needed to start working on my Christmas cards.  Here's what I came up with.


I like that this design is simple and I can make a few dozen easily.  Hop on over to the Cards in Envy blog and check out what the rest of the design team came up with.  Then enter your any size, any shape card (but make sure it is flat enough to fit in a regular envelope).

Happy Crafting!
