Ooopsies ... I totally forgot to post my card for the Inky Impressions Challenge. Here it goes ...

The Inky Impressions Challenge no. 14

Flourish and Faux 

The Front View

I "modified" the Lili's Egghunt stamp with a tape and then drew few lines (with my thin line sharpie) to skip the eggs and I think it came out great.

I used one of my favorite DP (Basic Gray). Added flowers, faux stitching and Whiff of Joy swirls.

The Challenges:

Sketch & Stash - Sketch no. 15

Dutch Dare CCH - For Mom

ENJOY!

Here is a card my sweet Lana made for the Simon Says Special Children's Challenge.

Lana is 5 and did a FANTASTIC job! Don't you think?

She picked her papers and various stickers & embellishments.

Mommy is so proud of her little crafter .  

Please, leave her some sugar!

Have a happy Tuesday!

Card no. 100 - Yaaay! My hundredth card - Just Magnolia + Simon Says + more

Hello Ladies!!! Happy Thursday - I've had a though week, but I think the closer it's getting to the weekend the better.  I am still struggling to find "the perfect" place in Phoenix and my hubby suggested I have to let go of my perfectionism - ehm... first, I am not a perfectionist - you should see my house - it looks like a bomb exploded here - and second, I don't think I can - it's just too important to me. He'll be working 16-hour days, so I'll be the one in the house - I need to like it. Also, the school system is the TOP of my list, so we've been researching and researching. Once you have school age kids it's a whole another game.

Anywhoo ... I am not sure if you've noticed, but this is my 100th Card since I started posting (I think about 2 years ago). Yay! Keep your eyes and ears peeled for some deliciousness.... probably will put it together today or tomorrow.

The Front View

OK, now for the business LOL ... this is a suuuuper cute baby from Magnolia - check out those bunny slippers! Just yummy!  I colored this cutie with my Copics & ProMarkers with few ShinHans. I used the Shake-It pouch and added confetti & MS glitter. I had to seal it with my ZipDry, because I don't think it seals that well. 

I used the Just Magnolia's Week 101 - Sketch Challenge & Simon Says Stamp - Card For A Child. Perfect combo :) - My sweet friend had her 2nd baby girl and I just had to make it all pink!  I used the brand new papers from Imaginisce - Enchanted - If the Crown fits. Oh, so delicious!

Also, these challenges are awesome (and I am entering this card): 

By the Cute & Girly - Cute & Girly

A spoon Full of Sugar - All creatures great and small - babies are kinda funny little creatures :)

ABC Challenge - S is for Sugar and Spice

Papertake Weekly - Truly Dimensional

The Baby Detail

I added American Craft's Rosy ribbon and the edges are punched with EK Success border punch. The circle is cut out with Spellbinders. The letters spelling "BABY" are by Tim Holtz.
Faaby!

Have an awesome day!

ENJOY!!!
