Lucky Bird

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by! Today I'm sharing with you a card I made for my little 4 year old friend, Kaitlyn, who is the proud big sister of 5 day old Kinsley. I saw this paper at my local scrapbook store and fell in love with it! One side is the rain boots and the other is the multi-colored stripes. What's even better is the next day after purchasing this paper, I found this free digi at Designed 2 Delight! What a perfect match! I was so uber excited to make this card! I'm going to enter it in the challenge Faith has going at D2D.
Fun card, isn't it? See the little puffed up flower? I punched it out of the paper I used then used my fingernail to puff up the petals! Cute, huh? I'm sure you'll be seeing more of those in a few days... :) I had these pearls just laying around and I picked up this fun ribbon from Michael's a while back and had never used it! Not sure you can really see the stickles I used, but each stripe on the bird's leg and each polka dot on the boots has stickles. The paper is by Three Bugs in a Rug from their April Showers line.
Wanna know the best part of this card? Kaitlyn has boots EXACTLY like the ones the bird is wearing!
Have a blessed day!

D2D & Double Delights

Hi! Here's my card for the D2D & Double Delights challenges this week. I've never made a card with a chicken on it, but I really like how this turned out. It's simple and could be used for a variety of occasions! You can see in the picture that I cut out a second chicken and "popped" him up (which is this week's challenge at Double Delights). The dp I used is by Karen Foster, the image, of course, is from Designed 2 Delight, flowers by Prima & rhinestones by Kaiserkraft. I also used yellow stickles in the scallops of the circle I cut with nestabilities. The brad is from some that I've had forever and I don't know where I got them.

So, don't forget to join in the fun at D2D and Double Delights! You'll be so glad you joined them!

Blessings!

Card for Challenges...

Good afternoon! Today I have a card I made using Designed 2Delight's free image of the week! Pop on over to the D2D blog to see how you can get free digi's, too! The flowers are a dark magenta, but it doesn't show up well in this picture. They are actually a beaturiful color, IRL! Thanks for stopping in to take a peek! Oh! I just purchased a couple of digi's from Mo's and I can't wait to use them! I've got a busy week planned, but maybe I'll get a chance to make a card later this week! Have a blessed week!
