Monday Challenge Time

Hey there! Super quick post today! Some of the Monday Chicks have a "Mother's Day" themed card to share today! I broke out last years Mother's Day release, "Because of You" by Verve!


Julee just comes up with THE perfect sentiments for the Verve stamps, and I think this one has to be one of my Top 5 FAVORITE Verve sentiments. It really says exactly how I feel about my mom, so I think this is the perfect card to give her:)

Go by these fabulous ladies' blogs and show them some love!


The other girls are taking a break this week, but had BETTER be back at it next week;)

Okay, I'm off to get ready for bed! Ta for now!

Little critters...

That's what today's Monday Challenge is between us Monday Challenge Chicks! Woodland Creatures are everywhere these days (well, everywhere except here in Oki, I sure do miss squirrels and bunnies, and gophers, and deer, and...). It's a trend that's hard NOT to follow! They're so cute and cuddly:D I decided to use my little Gerda the Goat stamp by Whiff of Joy! I haven't used him much lately and I just think he's DARLING! I don't think he technically counts as a "woodland creature" so much as a farm animal, but dangit I'm a rebel and I'm using him anyways!
Isn't he SO sweet? I colored him with some Copics, and went with a pretty simple layout. I actually REALLY enjoyed making this card. I had NO plan when I started out, so I colored Gerda the Goat and then chose my color combo from there. The base is Kraft (by PTI) and the blue is Baja Breeze. Obviously, I also used Chocolate Chip:) The sentiment is by PTI from this years Anniversary stamp set "Everyday Blessings".
Go check out the rest of the Monday Chicks and see what lil creatures they have today!

I made this next card yesterday with a new release by Verve called Because of You. I made it for my Grandma, I'll send it to her on Mother's Day. I don't do vintage or chic very often, but I gotta tell you I love how this card turned out! I showed it off to Billy and he said "Wow, that's really nice! Will you make one for my mom?" AWW! Sweetest compliment:) Love that guy...
Here's the card--
The paper is by SU (I forgot which pack it's from?). I used Mojo Monday #82 for the layout:)
Well I'm off to relax and get ready for bed! Ya'll have a great Monday:)
