Friday Sketchers #48 challenge

Here is a card I made for this weeks challenge at Friday Sketchers. I really like the sketch! It was fun to do. I used a Penny Black stamp on Neenah paper and then some pieces of scraps to fit the sketch. I colored the cute little butterfly with Copics. The sentiment is a peel-off sticker and I also used some stickles to accent. I've made an envelope to match.
thanks for looking!

Card Positioning Systems 111 Challenge

Hi. My son's birthday is next week and I chose the sketch on CPS to do his card with. He is an assistant project manager for a commercial construction company in Dallas, TX. I am so proud of him! And he and his wife are expecting their first baby (our first grandchild!!) I used vellum to print the lyrics to a song on the front of this card. I made my "blueprint" paper from a google image. I made the tags with Nesties and cut out images that I thought were appropriate for his job from google.
This was a fun card to make. Hope you enjoy!

Mojo Monday Challenge 82

I've made a card for the Mojo Monday sketch. The sketch is really a nice one. I made this card for a friend of mine who lost a family member. The pansy stamp is Penny Black, the sentiment is Paper Inspriations. I used Neenah paper to stamp on and Copics to color the flowers. I do not know what brand the DP's are, I've had them loose in my stash for a while. Hope you like my interpretation.

thanks.

My stamp is by Abracadabra which is stamped on Neenah paper with Tuxedo Black ink, and colored with Copics. The Scripture is printed from my computer. The Cardstock is Bazzill Cameo (really yummy and rich). I used a ribbon by American Crafts Elements. The edge is cut with Fiskars Scallop scissors.
Thanks for visiting today! And thank you Caardvarks!

Here is my card for a friend of mine that had a baby on St. Patricks Day.
I don't know where I got the shamrock paper, the striped paper is Bohemian by My Mind's Eye and the paper with the crosses is Amazing Grace by Flair Designs. I cuttlebugged the brown square and used a tag I received from Jillibean Soup. For bling, I used some Hero Arts Gems, Stickles and Diamond Glaze on the Shamrocks. I made a matching envelope.

Thanks for taking a gander today.

All the papers are from the Sugared collection, except for the paper I stamped the Penny Black elephant on (Neena). I used Copics to color the image. Made a envelope to match.
Thanks for stopping by!

This is awesome! My daughter used to be a flight attendant, (not SW) and she told me that the crew would sometimes come up with fun stuff, but nothing like this!
