Very Long Post Today - Sorry

Here are my cards for the challenges from Day 127 to Day 132 - Finally

Day 132 - Picture This
The Challenge for today was to use the photo above to inspire our card.

Day 129 - You Have Me in Stitches


Today's challenge was to stitch an image on our card. Not just around the outside of the card, but an actual image. A flourish DOES count, since these are typically quite detailed. I did struggle with the challenge, I tried hand stitching but that did not work so I turned to my sewing machine and stitched the stems of the flowers - I have not put a sentiment on the card as yet because I am not sure what to use it for - maybe Thank You or Get Well or Thinking of You???

I hope my machine stitching image counts for the challenge.

Today's card recipe challenge was:

1 5x5 Card
1 Rub-on image
2 Buttons
1 Piece of patterned paper
1 piece of ribbon - NO BOW
1 Sentiment inside the card

I did not have an image rub-on so I made my own with a free download from Lilly-Boo's Boutique.

Day 121 - Four Seasons & Card Patterns Sketch 21 & Pile It On - #4 Button it up!



The 365 Cards challenge was to incorporate all four seasons on our card. Pam said she thought this challenge could be fun, and it is wide open to interpretation..the challenge police will take a break on this one - I think I have met that challenge criteria with the sentiment (thanks to SharonSkippy) and the buttons in the seasons colours.
I used the sketch from Card Patterns.
I used the four buttons to associate with the seasons.

Today's challenge at 365 cards was to use Wrapping Paper on our card.

365 Cards - Day 83 & 84

Day 83 - Make It Match
Today's challenge is called "Make it Match", because we had to decorate an envelope to match our card. Any size will do, as long as they go together.

I made this card for my nephew who is going into the Australian Navy, all the paper is by Kaisercraft.

Day 84 - Card Recipe #2


Today's challenge is the second of its kind. Pam provided a "recipe" and then we are to create a card using ONLY what is listed among the "ingredients".
Here's the recipe:

1 flower
1 brad
1 piece of ribbon
1 stamped sentiment
and NO PATTERNED PAPER!
Sorry about the photo - I could not get a good shot of this card at all.
Flower & Ribbon - Stash
Brad - Kaisercraft
