From the Heart progressive challenge

It's the February progressive challenge at the From the Heart blog. This cute little bird and a ton of sentiments were free when you played last month. If you didn't get a chance to play along, you can check out the blog on how to get it.

Here is my take on the challenge

I used up some left over papers, twine and a button. I added the sentiment from FTH to the digi before I printed it. I coloured the bird with my copic markers. I was trying to make this card for a male or female.
The inside is another sentiment from the set and it says 'it's just another birdday'

Too cute! The challenge runs until the end of the month so you still have time to play along :)

From the heart challenge

It's been a while since I have joined in the progressive digi challenge from Faith's blog, From the Heart.

I love her digital stamps, so detailed and cute.

I made this card with her stamp Caught your Heart. You can get it free this month and if you join in next month's challenge it is free-cool,right?

Here is my card

Thanks for stopping by, have a super weekend :)

From the Heart-For you digi

Head on over to the Progressive Challenge at the From the Heart Blog. There you can pick up the adorable 'For You' image (if you didn't play last month). I decided to combine the challenge with the From the Heart Sketch challenge. Here is my card

Isn't it cute? I added the twitter-patted buttons from Stampin' Up I scooped up in the clearance section. The paper is from my stash. I embossed the background and added a flower to finish it off. I didn't add a sentiment yet. I think I'll wait until I know where its going.

Thanks for stopping by :)

From the Heart Card

Hello :)

I have been M.I.A. this week. It's been uber crazy with appointments, the kids and life in general. I need to be still. That is something I am always working on.

Anywho, I did have some time to sneak away to my craft room tonight and create a card for some challenges. The first one is the progressive challenge over at From the Heart Stamps.

The image we were given to create with is called 'flower pot chick'. If you played along last month the image was free. If you didn't but want to join in, click on the link above to find out how.

Here is the card I made.

Teehee, isn't it cute? I used my Copics to colour it up and added glitter to the flowers.

The second challenge is at the CDAC  -seasonal fun. This image reflects what I always do at this time of the year- buy myself a container of pink tulips. I'm just to darn impatient for the real ones to come up-lol

This card is a perfect way to let you all know I'm 'Just Chickin' In' and will be back soon with some more cards :) Have a great weekend!

Hugs
Laura

I heart card sketches #10

I decided to play along this week at Faith's blog From the Heart.

I used the sketch and digi from Faith called 'Spring Baskets'. It is available in her store, but also a freebie if you played along in her progressive challenge. Here is my card

I don't really celebrate St. Patricks day so I thought the clovers would look like flowers if I added half pearls in them. I used Copics to colour my image and cut my card down about an inch. The sentiment I printed off the computer and to complete the card I added a button embellishment.

Thanks for stopping in. Have a super Wednesday!
Hugs

Designed 2 Delight Challenge

It's time for the Designed 2 Delight progressive challenge! Before I continue I thought I'd let you know that they have changed their name to 'From the Heart'.

Faith has done it again, with another great digital stamp. This one called Cupcake Lineup, is perfect for me! In January we have something like 23 birthdays between family and friends, so I make LOTS of birthday cards!

Here is my card for the challenge

I cut out the cupcakes separately and popped them up. I coloured them with copics, then glittered the tops. Isn't that background paper awesome?  I picked it up on clearance from Michael's a few weeks ago. I think it's perfect with the images!

Thank you for taking time to pop in, have a wonderful day :)

Designed to Delight Monthly Challenge

Faith has made another lovely digi for her progressive challenge participants called 'Tweet Birthday Gift'. If you head on over to her blog at Designed 2 Delight, you can get details on how to play along!

Here is my card:

It was hard for me to get the sizing right for this one. I ended up making a mini card that I can add to a gift bag. I coloured her with my copic markers and used a SU stamp. The cupcake is glittered.

Hope you like it :)

Designed 2 Delight Progressive Challenge

It's month #2 in the progressive challenge at Designed2Delight!

This adorable image was given to use for playing last month. Missed it? No worries you can buy this image and get next months' free :)

Here is my card using non- traditional  colours

I added making memories rubons, glitter, buttons, ribbon, and chalked lines for detail :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Yeah, Faith's challenges are back!

Head on over to the Designed2Delight blog, Faith has started her progressive challenges again! Yeah :)  I played along when she had them before and loved it! It's always fun to see what others do with the same image :)

Here is my card.

 I popped up the pumpkins 3 x's, as well as, the owl. I wrote Whoo? several times. The inside reads "..is the best teacher evah? You that's whoo!" I'm sure my sons teacher will be cringing at my grammar-lol
I shaded the paper pieced pumpkins and coloured the owl with my Copic markers.
There is one week left to play along, so head on over to D2D and play along!
Have a fabulous day
