Love to Craft! Challenge Blog #9 - Dream

Hello crafty friends!  It's hard to believe it's another month already and Spring is definitely here.  Pollen allergies are full force here and making me miserable, but I do love the Spring flowers and everything turning green.  Once everything has bloomed and the weather has settled, I'll get to enjoy the beautiful weather.

Hopefully you are ready for another challenge at Love to Craft! Challenge Blog.  I love seeing what everyone is crafting and creating.

I created a card using Little Blue Button image Dream Charlie.  Such a sweet image and every girl can dream big dreams.  I picked the sentiment from Unity Stamps called SHE, love these SHE statements in this set.  I kept this card light and airy.  The image is colored with my Prismacolor pencils.

Here's the inside.

Love to Craft! Challenge Blog #8 - Monkey Bday

Hello crafty friends!  It's a new month already and that means a new challenge at Love to Craft! Challenge Blog.  You have a whole month to be crafty and share with everyone.  It can be anything crafty :o)

Here's a birthday card that I made for my special family.  (I have all boys, she has all girls...her girls are my "daughters" and vice versa.)  This card is for my "grandson" and they call him Monkeybutt, so nothing could be better than a monkey for his first birthday card.  I used a lot of die-cuts for this project.

When I first laid out his name, somehow it fit better in that small space.  As I started gluing it down, yup, I ran out of room.  It works though.
