Two Challenge Cards


Here's my card for the Simon Says Stamp "Tag-it" challenge. I've had this pre-printed tag in my stash for a decade or more. It came on a sheet of punch-out tags and I'm trying to use these items in my cardmaking since I no longer do layouts. I added some crochet trim to dress up the tag a little bit, and added a cute Art Impressions chihuahua image with a geo sparkler teardrop sticker. The medallion was cut from a scrap of pale green cardstock, while the inside is a piece of Blushing Bride dsp. The twine is by Whisker Graphics from an awesome prize package I won from them recently. The sentiment is by Casual Friday stamps. 

I'm also entering this into the Snippets Playground #114.


Here's my card for the Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge #239. I used a free, pre-colored digi image from Blackberyjelly that struck my funny bone :) I added some glitter pen accents to the carrots, a cottonball tail, and a computer generated sentiment. The ribbon is from Pizzazz Aplenty and the embossing was done with a Sizzix powdered sugar ef.

Have a fabulous Friday and thanks for stopping by today!

  5. Darling, Darling, Darling, both of them. I love the ear drop from the chihuahua. Those two shades of pink and green look so nice and soft together. Your second card is a cute as can be. You made the perfect sentiment for it as well. Have a crafty day today.

  8. Two great cards. Great idea to use up a tag...funnily enough I have been thinking of ways to use up tags too. I was thinking of blitzing it and making up a dozen tag cards all at once! lol

    The bunny card steals the show with this cute image that makes you want to have a giggle! The design of this one is great too!
