(2nd post) This week's IDIC Forum Freebie Challenge is sponsored by Stampin' Dragon Designs. I love this sweet Penny with Presents. I used freebie papers and chipboard from Cardmaking and Papercraft. I went a little overboard with the flowers on this card, but I'm happy with the way it turned out.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Sentimental Sundays #27 - birthdays

2. Creative Inspirations #46 - glitter, glamor, and girlie

3. The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #107 - anything that flies

Don't forget my blog candy!

Happy Crafting!

Swiftly Changing Seasons

(2nd post) I have two cards tonight. I'm back in my craft room after a weekend trip. I did manage to take my crafting on the road, which is how I made the cards from yesterday and this morning! That was interesting...

My first card is a fall birthday card. I used a Autumn Leaves from Stampin' Dragon Designs and Bentley bear with a happy birthday tag that were a freebie from Cardmaking and Papercraft. I colored them with my usual assortment of markers, although I'm leaning more toward Copics. The papers are from DCWV's fall stack. I thought it looked like the wind was blowing the balloons and the leaves and the birthday message.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Charisma Cardz #40 - autumn colours

2. Teddy Stampers #21 - fall colors

My second card takes us into winter. It's still highs in the 80s here, so I'm not quite thinking of snow! I used my SnowLady stamp. I colored her with Copics and added glitter to her flowers and snowy bits. The pale pink paper is from Robyn's Fetish, the green paper is from GCD Studios (it's two sided), and the argyle paper is from my stash.

I tried something new on this card. It doesn't have a fold. I put the sentiment on a tag that goes in a pocket on the front.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. I Did It Creations Forum Christmas Challenge #3 - snowman/people

2. Christmas Stampin' All Year Long #66 - sketch

3. Crafty Emma's Challenge #7 - create a tag

Happy Crafting!

Fun with Freebies

(2nd post) Stay tuned to the end for great candy links. I happened into a treasure trove of Halloween freebies. I Did It Creations Forum has a great freebie challenge with Halloween Word Art from Stampin' Dragon Designs. Simply Betty offered a wonderful freebie for her followers. Jak Heath offered a Halloween sheet with word art.

I combined the image from Simply Betty and word art from I Did It Creations Forum and Jak Heath to create an easel card. I colored the images with my usual assortment of markers. I used papers and ribbon from Target. I made my own ribbon flower.

1. I Did It Creations Forum - freebie challenge

2. The Latte Lounge - fall/Halloween
3. Cute Card Thursday #133 - make your own embellishment - ribbon flower

Happy Crafting!

I've made a birthday card using Stampin' Dragon Designs new Rupert's Birthday Stamp. Peanut made one too! I colored mine with watercolor pencils and made a purple ribbon flower.
