Monday Greetings Challenge

Here's a wonderful image from A&T Emerald called Bindie. I made this fun card for the Monday Greetings Challenge at Outlawz.  The challenge this week is to include some Magenta on your card.  I used some fun background cardstock that I embossed, some ribbon as well as a couple of embellishments.

Drop by over at the Monday Greetings Challenge and join in. There's a new contest with a wonderful prize every week and there's a great prize chosen every month as well.  It's a fun way to meet lots of other card designers and share your creations.  As always, for Monday challenges, be sure and include a sentiment on your card.

Cheers, Holley

Emerald Fairies

Here's an adorable image from Emerald Fairies.  What a cutie!  He must enjoy something as simple as floating in the air with a seed of a dandelion.  I added a vellum saying "Waiting on the Wind."  That was just perfect.  I would say it looks like so much fun, well, it does look like so much fun, but in reality, if something lifted me up and carried me like this tiny fairy, that would really be terrifying.
