Crazy4Challenges 271

Hey Peeps!  I'm HERE!  WOOT!!!!!  It's time for a NEW challenge at Crazy4Challenges...

Today we are making Birthday cards, there's a twist.  Make it masculine.... OH BOY!!!!  Masculine is SO challenging for me, not only do I have very few masculine/male stamps I tend to make VERY CAS cards for men.... I mean, seriously.... bling up the wazoo in my drawers, ribbon, flowers.... Ummmm, IS there a "masculine embellishment"?????

SO, I found this UBER awesome piece of DP in my never before opened pack of DP from Fancy Pants called "As You Wish"....

I stamped and colored Dante (retired) from The Greeting Farms and then added him to the already there frame.  I cut out the CUTE little "Celebrate" using The Cats Pajamas cut up and added a strip of newsprint from the same DP pack....  Dante is up on boosters....

Head on over to the C4C blog and check out the other designers.... GREAT cards there!!!!

Farm Fresh Friday! Let's Hear it for the Boys

Hey Farmer Peeps!  It's FRIDAY which means it's time for a new challenge over at The Greeting Farms..... 

This week we are celebrating FFF with cards for the Boys!!!! 

Today I used Heart Ian in my card.  I kept it very simple.... I used some Vellum from Websters Pages call  Beautiful Bokkeh .... Now on a short little side note.... I was SO stinking careful when I was leaving the store with this to not smash it or get any rain on it.... so I get home, put that piece down on my desk, free from kitty feet and what do I see when I turn to leave?  I tipped my coffee cup in the other hand too far.... YES!!!!  Vellum is NOT forgiving, so I held my tears to keep from ruining other parts of the vellum.... cleaned it up and then set it under a heavy binder to force flatten.  THIS is the piece that I LOVED and was what got coffee on it... I managed to salvage it!  YAY!!!!

OK so on to my card.... I completed my card with lilybee designs "Destination" DP, some brads and Kraft paper.  Ian is colored with Copics.... a few wood dot embellies and VIOLA!

Farm Fresh Friday~Get Wordy!

Hey Farmer Peeps!!!!  It's time for another Farm Fresh Friday Challenge brought to you by The Greeting Farms Rubber Stamps!!!!  WOOT!!!

This week the challenge is to "Get Wordy"  Yep!  Up for interpretation so.... I interpreted mine like THIS!

Tee Hee!  I used the set "You're Wanted" and stamped the Yee-Haw! repeatedly on a strip of paper.  Once I had selected my layout using some older DP from MME (On the Bright Side2) I cut my strip down to be perfect for this cutie image!!!! 

You MIGHT think it's a shout out to my hometown.... Pendleton, OR YEEE HAWWWW, LET'ER BUCK!!!! 

HA!  OK so head over to the blog and link up and have some FARMING FUN!!!!
