Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #242 Add a Critter


 Welcome to another challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and Judy is hosting today's challenge.

The theme of this weeks challenge is 'Add a Critter'.  As usual, anything you care to enter is fine, a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece,  some home decor as long as it meets the theme.

Ok, add a critter, what kind of critter, fun or serious, real, fantasy or cartoon-like, such was my dilemmas.  I decided to go for cartoon-like with this fun butterfly and cow image ( an old stamp by Stampendous 'Butterfly and Cow'). Two of my great-grandchildren were here and they each worked on a version of it. Fun time  (6 and 4-year-olds).

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #241 Autumn Colours


A birthday card for my older brother. I wanted an image that would reflect the forest area where we grew up and this silhouette stamp seemed to meet the criteria. I must admit there was not a lot of moose seen back in the day as the forests hid a lot of the animals. The more the trees disappeared the more the wildlife was seen.
