Happy Easter Chickadee Treat

I really had so much fun making this for my future sister-in-law! 

I made this for three Blog Challenges:

CupCake Craft Challenges #84

Color Throwdown #86

Just Add Ink #11

The Cupcake Craft Challenge was to make something with a Spring or Easter theme, and to incorporate chocolate.  While i love the color chocolate....the real thing just can't be beat!  So i decided to make a Hershey bar wrap to give as a gift!

The Color Throwndown challenge was to use yoyo yellow, garden green and a soft suede color. 

The second i saw the challenge i thought of my Basic Grey scraps i had been saving for the perfect occassion!

The third is for the just add ink challenge which was....just-add-ink!!  I can handle that! 

I hope you like what you see!

My ColourQ, EBTKS, and CPS Challenges

Whew....two in one week!  Trynig to combine the challenges is a little tricky, but it also really makes me think about my designs and how to make them the best!

I loved making this card.  I do not work in this size typically, and i also tend to overdo the style and have color all over--so it was nice to break away and challenge myself to make it pretty with very little color.  I kept thinking...KISS-- Keep it Simple Stupid!

The three challenges i did this week are for EBTKS Challenge 12, cQc#26, and CPS160

The color inspiration came from this weeks Colour Q challenge:

The size and layout inspiration came from the CPS Challenge:

And i also threw in the challenge from Everything but the Kitchen Sink...use string!

Thanks for looking!  I can't wait to be in a billion more challenges!

Best part of all is that i finally got to use my Bind-it-All....and nothing but scrap papers and embellishments!

YAY

 

A new Valentine

New year....new Birthday card

Itty Bitty cards

Most of you know that Terra is having a tough time in the behavior department at school. She is getting MUCH better, but still has trouble keeping her mouth closed and listening.

I've been including little notes with her lunch box, and she abaolutely loves them. I ran out of the little green crayon cards i bought at Michaels, so i decided to make some itty bitty cards of my own to suprise her with. They are all 3 inch square.

They go on a smiley face system E=queen, S=Smiley face, N=Straight face, U=Sad face....so that is why most of them have a crown on it....

I think they turned out awesome, and I know she will love them as much as i loved making them.
