Using some scraps

From what I read, using scraps is an ongoing issue with paper crafters!  I have an endless supply, so jumped at a chance to use them for these challenges:

The image was given to me so I do not know the source, but it might be GinaK..  The sentiment is SU Riveting.  All the papers, except the blue and card base, came from my scrap drawer.  I used some punches and circle dies, as well as the CB Happy Birthday embossing folder.

Sympathy cards

I am always in need of sympathy cards.  My  brother-in-law was visiting last week.  He lives in a very small town, and cards are not readily available there.  He took all of my stash - then told me he would probably re-sell them to friends as needed!  So I must replenish my supply.
This is for the sketch here: http://critterchallengeblog.blogspot.com/
This requires one image, two papers and 3 embellishments:  http://incywincydesigns.blogspot.com/
I used one Lovely as a Tree (SU) image, cut in 3 pieces.  I have cream and green cs.  With a sympathy card I had a bit more trouble with embellishments.  I used tiny ivory half pearls (Pizzazz Aplenty), a tiny fancy circle punch, and two pieces of a Shapeabilities Doodle die.. The sentiment is from Paper Inspirations.

The sketch for this card is:  http://seemsalittlesketchy.blogspot.com/
The image is ODB.  I used a piece of Basic Grey lacy doily in the corner.  The bg is Swiss Dots (Cuttlebug), and clear rhinestones from Pizzazz Aplenty.

This fits several shallenges:

I used various shades of grey for the color.  The bg is embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder.  Additional texture is that lovely  Lavalier Circle die cut by Memory Box.

Edna in the Morning

This is a card I created using Rubberneckers Edna's Mornings stamp.
The DP is from Recollections, and I used some miscellaneous cs.  The birthday
sentiment is SU Riveting.  I colored with a variety of colors - mostly Twinkling H20's.
The die cuts are with Spellbinder's dies.  I added a couple of rhinestones.
