Curly Tree - Thinking of You

Happy Monday Everyone!!!

Today I have a pretty little Thinking of You card.  I used the curly tree from Wall Decor and More.  I just love this little tree.  The pretty paper is an old paper pack I have from Close to My Heart.  Don't you just love the pretty fall colors!!  The sentiment stamp is CTMH as well.  The ribbon is from my stash and I hand cut the tag.  I added just a touch of glitter gel pen.  I embossed the frame the tree is on with the Distressed Stripes Cuttlebug folder.  I am entering this card in Bitten By the Bug2 - Curly Tree Challenge.  The challenge was to use the tree from Heritage, but since I don't have this cart, I used this one from Wall Decor and More, I think it fits the challenge, what do you think ?

Hugs and Kisses,
Kathy

Baby Animals

Here is the second card I made today.  I am not sure that I am totally happy with the way this one came out.  Something I can't put my finger on, maybe the colors??  Anyway, my friend needs a baby shower card, so this is what I came up with.  All cuts are from New Arrival.  The giraffe on the cartridge did not have any spots, so I added some with a shape from George and Basic Shapes.  The printed background paper is from Imaginisce "Baby Powder" collection.  I think that next to DCWV, Imaginisce is my favorite printed paper!!
I added a strip of paper ribbon, a few buttons and a little bling.  I also used PK New Arrival stamps for the faces.  I also added a little doodling.  I used the spots and dots Cuttlebug folder for the background.

I am entering this in the following challenges:

Love to Crop - It's a Jungle Out There
Cricut Cardz Challenge - #89 It's a Jungle Out There

My Craft Spot - Sew Much Fun

Circle Anniversary Card

Hello all my crafty friends.  I have 2 post today as I got to spend a few hours in my craft room. 
the first on is an anniversary card I made for my cousin who is celebrating her 30th wedding anniversary!
Since the challenge at Celebrate the Occasion is to make a circle card, that is what I decided to make!!

The card base and top layer are from Art Philosophy, as is the frame on the inside of the card.  Don't you just love this shape!!  The numbers for the 30 were also cut from Art Philosophy.  The sweet birdie couple and the sentiment on the inside is from Sweethearts.  I used the swiss dots & distressed stripes Cuttlebug folders. The background paper is from the DCWV Lemon Frost Stack.  I added some ribbon and some bling.  Here is the inside.


I am also entering this card in the following challenges:

Scrappymoms Stamps - Terrific Tuesday Challenge
