Wind surf birthday

I was asked to make a card for Dan who likes wind surfing and I didn’t have a wind surfer stamp so i winged it… I had A Muse Art Stamp surf board stamped on scraps of red and stripe,and cut and pasted , then used punch to simulate waves and circle punch to simulate kites… then drew in the harneses and added spots go give the feel of sand…. I’ve included the cake and surfboard envelope in the background. since the Allsorts challenge blog is free and easy… I’m entering this card.

striped heart

The Less is More challenge this week is layer stripe so this Posh Impressions heart stamp and antique looking sentiment would work. I will enter it for the One layer wonder this week too although a heart is not a circle.

Happy Birthday Paul fire

I’ve always made a chicken card for Paul… i love it when I’m at his home and see him feed the chickens…( i don’t have any chickens). This year thought I’d do something different and since his newest book is titled ‘Log and Kindling for the Fire of Revival’ , I had to include a fire and this fireplace seemed right. The stamp is from Make it crafty, the wood is the craft colored card stock …cuttlebuged with a wood envelope and the strips are from a memories paper pack. The challenge is Color Throwdown– summer sun, early espresso, Cajun craze and very vanilla.
