Happy Birthday 2 U

Happy Birthday 2 U....well Happy Birthday to my brother. I made this card for him. My daughter's bday is the same as his so I will definitely be posting a card for her soon : ) As you may have noticed me and my daughter's make a lot of bday cards for relatives....we have a pretty big family. Anyhow back to the card. I got this Happy Lion from KennyK downloads and just happened to use a lot of orange and yellow to colour and decorate it. So I am entering my card in a monochromatic challenge at Crazy 4 Challenges and at Craft Us Crazy Anything Goes (2nd entry). 

Surfin' with Connor the Crocodile

As I upload this card, I realize I definitely need help with my picture taking skills!!! Any tips for me go ahead and leave 'em - LOL.  This card is for my nephew's birthday. Connor the crocodile is a freebie I got at Altered Scrap.  This is the perfect stamp for my nephew cause he loves the water and literally lives at the beach. I am entering my card at Sketch Saturday Week #167 and Craft Us Crazy Anything Goes. Now off to the lake for a PARTY!!!

Good Luck in Kindergarten

Meet Thomas. He is a freebie at Michelle Perkett's Studio.  I think he is going to Kindergarten just like my cousin. I made this card for him. I am going to Grade 1 this year, but I sure enjoyed my first year of school and I hope my cousin will too. I am entering my card at the Children's Challenges at the Latte Lounge and Simon Says Stamp.  : ) P.K.

Wishing you Joy this Christmas

I wanted to get one more entry in the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Christmas in August so here it is. I made this one a while back, but need to get moving and make a lot more Christmas cards in order to actually give everyone a handmade card this year. The image and sentiment are freebies from The Crafty Nomad....I have gotten such good use of her stuff! Thanks for looking : )

Pirate Bear

I made this card for my cousin's birthday. He will be 3 in September. He loves pirates and always says "Argh" just like a pirate. I designed this card and did all the cutting and colouring by myself! I am entering my card at Simon Says Stamp Children's Challenge. Thanks for looking "me hearties"! : ) P.K.

Spread your wings and fly

I made this card on a day that I made 6 cards! The butterfly image was from The Latte Lounge and the papers I chose are some of my favourites....especially the sparkly one. I am entering it at the Kids Summer Challenge at Simon Says Stamp. You can enter as many times as you want, so I will definietly be back again! Thanks for looking and leave me a comment cause I love to hear what you have to say.
: ) P.K.

O Holy Night

First there was Christmas in July at Bugaboo's Catch the Bug Challenge Blog and now it is Christmas in August at Simon Says Stamp.  I definitely look for inexpensive ways to make cards. I got some ribbons at a thrift shop, papers at a garage sale and mostly buy 2nd hand stamps. Love this image of baby Jesus (from a SU set full of Christmas images.....I never know the names of these sets) cause that is what Christmas is all about : )
