Six again!

Hello Again!

Okay, so Book Fair is open today now, but I have a bow order I must get to.  Thus, I stayed home this morning to make a bow (and blog).  I will be heading to school shortly.  So, I will just share quickly the other birthday card (that I made at the last minute) for a little friend of Conner's, who turned six this past weekend.

I have been on a roll with using up scraps, pieces and extra preprinted digistamps, which is exactly what I did this time, too.  Makes me feel resourceful when I do that!  I know it is a super easy card.  However, since it was for a child, I thought it fit.  I think the stamp might be a Bugaboo stamp, but again, I can't say with certainty.  It does, however, meet the requirements for a few challenges!

All for the challenge!

Like I said before, it had been so long since I had posted, I had actually forgotten exactly how to do it.  However, the itch for a challenge had been getting worse and worse, but I couldn't hardly remember the challenge sites I used to frequent.  That didn't keep my finger from itching to put together a card,yet I didn't even want to spend time trying to find a challenge to design for.  So, I threw caution to the wind, and just put something together.  All with supplies sitting on my shelf, with digistamps that had been printed out more than a year ago, and with no specific idea in mind, this is what I came up with.

 

 

I am pretty sure I haven't put a card together this quickly in a long time!  The best news is that it does go along with several challenges.  So here is what I am entering it in

 

Clear It Out Challenge: Theme - thank you Stash - something you have been hanging onto

Penny's Challenge:  #144 Anything Goes

A note...I think the image I used in this card is from Bugaboo Stamps, but like I said earlier, I had printed it over a year ago.  Thus, I can't say anything for sure :)

Father's Day #1

Morning, All!

Believe it or not, I am actually posting again before my cruise.  Of course, the subject of the card is very important, so it was a must on the list of things to do.  

The card I have for you today is the Father's Day Card I made for my dad.  Although he is not a huge golfer, he does putt around every once in awhile.  Mostly he works really hard running a local grocery store, which he has been doing it since I was born.  Thus, obviously, he is pretty good at it!  So, besides my brother and I and his grandkids, he doesn't have too much time for much else, poor guy!  Besides, who would want a Father's Day's card with a grocery store on it?  

Thus, this is what I came up with

The image came from Bugaboo Stamps. 

Being that it is a Father's Day Card, there are several challenges to enter

The Chosen One

Morning!

Today's card is pretty fun.  It is heading to my father-in-law.  Shhh...don't say anything.  My husband, my sister-in-law, my father-in-law and I are Harry Potter fans, so I thought he would get a kick out of this card.

 

The image is from Bugaboo Stamps.  You can find their store here. 

Since this card turned out so cute, I have several challenges I am going to enter it in.

Very, Very Late

Well, good evening!

Like everyone else in the bloggin' world just about, I was having fits this morning trying to post.  I really thought about not posting today, but there were a few challenges I wanted to enter with my card.  I will have to look to see if I am too late for that, though. 

Regardless, here is the card I made to send to a friend, who in less than 30 days, my husband and I will be meeting up with her and her husband to take a cruise!!!!  Sean and I will be celebrating our ten year anniversary in June, and my friends celebrated their ten year in March.  Thus, a cruise seemed like a perfect gift for all involved.  Most importantly, I will be dropping my children off in Evansville, where they will be visiting while Sean and I cruise the ocean.  I am excited about the trip and just being Sean and I, but I have a feeling after a few days I will be missing my children.

Anyway, on to the card...

The digi is one I actually purchased specifically for this card from Bugaboo Digi Stamps.  Since it is their stamp, I thought entering it into their Anything Goes Challenge would be just perfect.  Also, thought I would enter it in challenges at

A Bugaboo Challenge Thank You Style

Good Wednesday to all.

Well... did you catch the excitement going on in the sidebar?  

I was the winner at Kenny K's Kradt Girlz Challenge this past week!  I got to pick five new Kenny K images, which I love.  They speak to the bad girl side of me.  Once the new digis are put to use, I will show you the finished product.  

Now on to the card...

Today's card is a thank you card incorporating a Bugaboo digistamp along with their challenge.  The image is super cute, and I put my Expression to work.  I cut the wording and the pink design from the Storybook Cartridge.

Be sure to check in tomorrow as I will have something special in honor of my baby girl's 7th birthday.  

See you then!
