Ruby's Rainbow Challenge #123 - Birthday Humor

 

The Ruby's Rainbow Challenge #123 theme is Birthday Humor.

 

For my card, I used the Stampendous Sherlock Dog stamp.  While it may not look like a birthday card on the outside, the inside sentiment is "The CAT thought and thought and then forgot!  Happy Belated Birthday!"  The background designer papers are from my stash.  The banner under the image was die cut twice to fit outside the image edges.

 

We hope you'll share your Birthday Humor cards with us at Ruby's Rainbow Challenge #123.  You can find the challenge HERE.

The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge - Warm Thoughts!

 

The Sisterhood of Crafters challenge theme is Warm Thoughts.  Design Team member, Terri challenges us to create a card/project showing what keeps you warm during these cold winter months (cocoa, blanket, socks, etc.)  For me, it's my pink fuzzy mittens!

 

For my card, I used White and pearl pink cardstock.  The mittens are cut from pink felt using Spellbinders Mitten die.  The bow was punched out from the Stampin' Up Bow punch.  The snowflake border was die cut from a Memory Box die.  Lace and pearls embellish the mittens and a pearl was adhered to the center of the bow.

 

We hope you'll share what keeps you warm cards/projects with us at The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge.  You can find the challenge HERE.
