A few layouts and cards

For the past few days I've been working on some cards and layouts here and there. For all of them, I've used three lines of paper: Chatterbox, Jenni Bowlin, and Sassafrass Lass. Just thought I'd share :) This first layout was based on a sketch by Allison Cope.

A La Carte Challenge #5 layout below. I used 4 of the 6 menu items: dashes, star shape, photo strip, and a border. The yellow border around the background star is a felt Chatterbox border that I cut in half.


Pretty plain and simple birthday card. We have some boy birthdays coming up in our family so I made a few of these to have on hand.

Can you ever have too many thank you cards??

This card is for a neighbor who celebrated her 30+10 birthday on Saturday. She asked for donations to a certain charity instead of gifts. As we were getting ready to go, I thought it might be good to have a card to give her :p I looked up the latest Card Maps by Becky Fleck and used one for this card. Love how it turned out!

This layout is of my neighbor's little girl. Isn't she adorable?? I used a sketch by Jana Eubank for this layout.


Thanks for looking! Now, go create something :)

As always, I love everything! I think the "40" card is my favorite. And "dodgeball" - you know I love stars!

Beautiful projects! I love the dodgeball one - it reminded me of the movie Dodgeball, which put a smile to my face!! :)
