Dollies, Friends and a Birthday Card!

I've been in a scrappy mood lately.

This first one is for 5challenges! First it is for Dollies elements challenge, friendship. It also is for Pile it on butterflys(on the patterned paper), Pennys challenges anything goes, Mels Jens Design they want clean and simple (one embellie, a simple background made from scraps-simple), and finally at Shelley's Images this place is a zoo challenge, (sometimes with two toddlers around it can feel like a zoo. Next I made a card, not too fond of this one.

The card is based on 2 challenges: Partytime Tuesdays is looking for summer birthday cards, and at 365 Card Day 158 is a recipe challenge (5x5 card, 2 pattern papers, an image, a sentiment and 2 buttons.

The Color Purple!

Over at Design Dollies the color challenge was purple, olive green and cream. As soon as I seen purple I was thinking no way would I get to this challenge. Well looking through photos for some other challenges I ran across the perfect pictures for the Design Dollies color challenge.

My daughter Syd in a purple shirt painting her nails. Over at Digi Doodle the challenge was to use a punch or cutting machine. I used my cricut to cut out the word "nails" and to make the circles. I also used a star punch. And over at Stamp and Create the challenge was flowers. I layered a purple and green flower with a button.

Guys in the Kitchen!

This Lo is based on the following challenges: In my cafemom group, they are having a crop. One of the challenges is Break the Stereotypes. I thought these pictures fit in perfect. Also works for the color challenge over at Dollies . I think it also fits the challenge at Cute Card Thursday . They want texting crazy. I included a defination of the word bake. Also over at Dutch Dare their challenge is anything goes. Does anyone recognize the LO? It's a Sketchy Thursday one that I used a while back for a design dollies sketch.

I just finished handknitting this sweater for my daughter and just had to share it.

Snobby Walrus

Over on Tracy's blog she is giving away a $25 certificate to snobby walrus. All you have to do is tell her what you would spend it on, to be in the drawing. I would spend it on ink (my 2 year old got into mine, and destroyed 3 inkpads!) plus I'm always in need of paper, or maybe I would get myself rub-ons, or primas.... this is hard to choose.
