Day Six-Yep You Guessed It....

More Challenges!! So, I think I got three of them knocked out with these two cards. The first card was made using my super cute new Penguin stamp. I colored him in and cut him out so that I could pop him up. The paper is by Karen Foster and I paired it with SU's More Mustard and Ruby Red. I let the squares get a little too big, so the sketch isn't exact, but it is all there!! The striped paper is from the SU Ginger Blossom DSP. I added some big white brads in the four corners of the DP squares and then used two small ones to attach some black gingham ribbon. I sponged on my sky and used a marker to make the grass. So technically, and I know I am stretching, this works for both Jen's sketch and Laura's dirty challenge. WOOHOO..go me!!LOL!!
This next card was made using my A Little Birdie Told Me set from SU. I stamped the Bird on Watercolor paper and then created and colored a tiny scene around him. Okay, again...stretching...but I don't feel all the great and it is the best I can do under these conditions...yes you should feel sorry for me....LOL!! I layered the main panel on Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue and then on Whisper White. The DP's are both from SU(one in the Certainly Celery DSP and one in the Prints Pack). I added some silver hardware, blue taffeta ribbon, a spiral clip and viola...it was done!! That is it for me now, thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
