Love Story

Good Morning! Hope your week will get off to a GREAT start. 
I just wanted to share a card I made for one of my Hubby's co-workers. He wanted a card for his wife for their anniversary and it HAD to have purple in it. I guess that purple must be his wife's favorite color. 
I did a little something different than what I usually do and I had a BLAST doing it. I just wanted to share with you.

Accessories: Sizzix - vine die cut and Swiss Dots Embossing folder,

Happy Birthday Daddy!!

Sassy Cheryl's Challenge #158 - Fancy Edges, Die Cuts and Punches

Good Tuesday morning to you all!! It's time for me to share another Sassy Cheryl's Challenge card. 
This week's challenge is brought to you by our lovely and talented Judy.  She has chosen the theme Fancy Edges, Die Cuts and Punches. Sounds like a pass to have a good time to me. These are the things that make a card grab your attention. I chose Cheryl's cutie, "Mama's Little Clown" for my card this week. I had some coloring time with my Mom and crafty friends, Kim of Oak Pond Creations  and Linda of Turtle in the Sand on Saturday. This is one of the images I colored. We had such a great time. We need to do that a little more frequently girls!! I gave this card to my Daddy for his Birthday. He just celebrated his 69th Birthday. Happy Birthday Daddy, you're the best!


I hope you can take some time this week and play along in the challenge. You know you want to, it's gonna be lots of  fun! Looking forward to seeing your creations.
Happy CraftingY'all!!
