Bugaboo Sunbonnet Miss Muffett


Bugaboo Sunbonnet Miss Muffett isn't she a cutie, so serene sitting on the stump smelling the flowers. She can be found over at the Bugaboo Stamps site.  I was inspired by Dawn Frost's designer card for the Catch the Bug challenge  'Stella Says Sketch' challenge #720. I recently bought a cloud stencil type thing and this is my first time using it. I really like it and should get better with time. Have a great day!

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #246 No Patterned Paper


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. 

New challenge and one I quite enjoyed designing for.  I decided my card would be related to nature as I have been wanting to use this sentiment stamp. I have been surfing around the web and came upon some cards using this design and decided to give it a try. I used a clear stamp for the grain and butterflies that my friend had and loved the result.

Sentiment: Stampin' Up

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge # 245 Thankful




Welcome to Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #245 - Thankful

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.

I recently visited an old friend and decided to send her a thank you card for a wonderful day full of laughter and reminiscing!  I also wanted to try out this fold. I had a little help from another couple of friends re stamps and layout. Aren't friends the most wonderful things to have! I used magnets to keep the front banner closed. All in all, I am quite pleased with it AND I love learning new things (at least new to me)!

Stamps: Stampin Up
Die Cuts for the closure: Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles
Magnets
Embossing Folder Tiny Dots
Fold: Double Point Fold  (tutorial here)
