Crafty Critter VSD Challenge #4

Actually, it wasn't just a VSD, it was an entire weekend!!!  There were some great challenges and I managed to get 3 out of the 5 done.

Here's the info for challenge #4:

I'm pretty sure all of us have a Greeting Farm images. If you DO NOT then please use any image you would like. From what I have observed I think most of us are good to go.

1. Use the colors pink and blue on your card. You can use other colors as accents but I want pink and blue to be your main colors.

2. Second use SCS sketch SC265. Make sure you upload your card (or scrapbook page) to your blog and to your SCS gallery.

3. Use a Greeting Farm image.

A few misc cards...

I hope everyone is having a good week so far.  I went with my daughter's class to the zoo on Tuesday.  Everyone was so excited to see the new penguin exhibit but something happened with their cage because they weren't out all day, very disappointing.  Anyhoo, here are a couple of cards I made for a swap awhile back.  I've lost my supply list for them, sorry.

Here's another one I made for a friend.  Actually she had bought several of them but they are all the same.

Steph's Front Teeth

are officially gone!!!  Here are some pictures of getting her last front tooth out the other night.  We ended up trying a string it to and pulling it..well Robb pulled it, I closed my eyes.

Here's with it still in her mouth...

Here's daddy tying a string around it....

Here's the string....

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH...

I'll try and get a better picture this weekend.

The Greeting Farm Royal Battle - Going Retro

The Greeting Farm is having a contest over the next 5 weeks called The Greeting Farm Royal Battle.  We had to come up with a team of 3 - 5 people and pick a name...ours is Stampin Farmettes and our other group is the Stampin Farmettes Sisters.  Every week starting on Sunday and ending on Tuesday you can go and vote for 3 cards in their gallery.  They are starting out with 60 teams and every Wednesday the roster will be cut in half. 

The first week the theme of the battle was Going Retro and it was a color challenge also.  This was our inspiration.

I just so happened to have the perfect paper and the perfect little girl for this challenge.  This was also my first time to make an easel card, it was so easy. 

Here is the link to the gallery so you can vote, you will have to register but it doesn't take long at all.  Thanks for your vote!

I also used this card for my Crafty Critter Challenge, you had to use the following:

1. thing that glitters
2. ribbons
3. layers (at least)...so layer that card up!!!
4. colors...colors on your image, on your DP, on the ribbon whatever...just as long as there are 4 different colors on your card!

Can we handle this? I think so....and also...you must enter your card in a challenge...just one challenge...that's all I'm asking...challenges can be so much fun and you just never know...you might just win!

Bugaboo Guest Designer

I'm so excited to announce that I will be a Guest Designer in November for Bugaboo Stamps!!!!  They have a blog too called Catch the Bug Challeng Blog, go check it out, it looks like a lot of fun. 

Thank you so much for the opportunity!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Some of my friends came over today and we colored out little hearts out:) I had to make a card for a challenge...check back tomorrow to see it.

Mmmmm...frosting!

I love frosting.....no I mean I really love frosting and my daughter is just like me.  They had their Easter Party at school today and had cupcakes.  I asked her if she ate the whole cupcake and said no, she only ate the frosting:)  That's why when I saw this stamp, I knew I had to use it. 

So are you a frosting or a cake person?  I usually take the bottom off the cupcake so I have a better ratio of frosting to cake, yummy!  So on to my card....

I made this card for a few challenges:
~Eat Sleep Stamp #76 - Sketchy Thursday
~365 Cards Day 25 - Do It Yourself - Cover brads or pearls in glitter
~Hand Full of Stamps #21 - Something Sweet
~Cute Card Thursday #105 - Dimensions

Supplies: All Supplies are SU except: Copics: G24, R29, R32, and B32 Other: Hero Arts Pearls, Stickles, and Nestabilities.
