Midweek Throwdown - Christmas Cards

First I have to say, wow, is it ever hard to photograph shiny silver paper! This stuff makes great ornaments for the cards, but the shine can be a bit tough to get a good picture of. This card is for 2 challenges that happen to be on at the same time. The first one is for a WCMD celebration over at Simply Rae blog. It is for her sketch challenge. And as I was making it yesterday I saw that it was also good for the OWH Midweek Throwdown. That sort of timing rarely happens to me.

Love You

This was made by using 2 stencils, one is the flower in 3 sizes and the other is the swirl on the side. The sentiment stamps is an old dime store stamp that just matched perfectly!

Raspberry Butterfly

I made this butterfly with an unknown brand of stamp bought off e-bay, added the glitter glue around the edges and sealed the whole thing in Dimensional Magic. I made it a few days ago. I know that it is Autumn and most of our card making is geared towards the holidays....... she, however, was crying out to be a card.

WCMD More Yellow/Orange Thank You Challenge

I know this one has a lot of pink but, it has yellow and orange in the circles and background. It is just happy paper!

WCMD Yellow/Orange Thank You Challenge

This one I went with more on the orange side of things. Fall is here and that wonderful color is everywhere!

WCMD Yellow Thank You Challenge

This is the 3rd one I made for the Paper Crafts Magazine yellow Thank You Challenge. I decided to stick with this challenge a bit since I rarely make yellow cards.

Paper Crafts Magazine FB Challenge

This is another one for the yellow or orange Thank You card challenge.

Happy World Card Making Day!

Like we need a holiday to make cards! LOL!!! But it is nice to have a day that celebrates card MAKERS! To start my day I made 2 cards for Paper Crafts Magazine's FB challenge to make yellow or orange Thank You cards. Since yellow and orange are not my go-to colors, I made these simple ones.
