Candied Cards

Happy Birthday!

Today is my Birthday!  The party started Monday when I found a gray hair.  While I am grateful for turning 32, I still can't believe that I am in my 30s.   I also have a couple of friends whose birthdays are in March too.  I made them each the same card.

I brought my first Scrappy Moms Stamps because I thought the sentiments on the Girls Want to Have Fun set was just fabulous.  Here is the card I made...

Supplies:

Suburbia Cricut Cartridge

Scrappy Moms Stamps - Girls Just Want to Have Fun

Cardstock - A Muse Studio, SU!, Colorbok

Pattern Play - Thanks Card

I am taking the Pattern Play class over at Online Card Classes.  I am so happy I decided to take this class.  I have so much trouble working with pattern papers.  Usually when I use pattern paper, I use only one sheet for layering.  Here is my take on a card that Kristina Werner made.

 

 

Challenges:

Craftin' Desert Divas Linky Party

Make It Monday - Anything Goes

"Lepreachaun" Red Carpet Studio Challenge

It's Sunday! That means it's time for another challenge over at Red Carpet Studios.  The movie premiering this week is Lepreachaun.  Have you ever seen this movie?  It's one scary movie!  Well, for me, it is.  I am not a fan of too many scary movies because I tend to freak myself out at night then I can't sleep unless I watch something cheery. 

For the challenge, we have to use 2 shades of green!

I received my March's Stamp of the Month from The Stamps of Life a couple of days ago and I am really loving it.  I have been creating with the set like crazy!
