Three challenges.......

.....I finally got my two cards finished that I had started last week!! I just can't find time to just sit and play! I get 10 minutes here and ten minutes there!! But I finally got them done! They are pretty simple because I had to finish my Spoonful of Sugar challenge. It was a beautiful sketch by Lim and I had to try it out!! This is like my third image I have tried to put in there! I just didn't like any! So I decided to go with this cute little snowman from Rachelle Anne Miller that I got from SNSS!

Paper: MME (Love this stuff)
Inks: distressed inks and twinkling h2o's
Accessories: Flower ~ Prima, brads ~ Heidi Grace, Frosted beads ~ Stamping Bella

The next 2 challenges I have completed were Friday Sketchers and cute card Thursday. The sketch was from Friday Sketchers and "Autumn colors" is the challenge over at CCT. The sketches for A Spoonful and FS were similar in that both had the circle mat.I had to use this new stamp from the Pink collection. It is the only Tilda that I got from that collection. I think she is just the cutest!!!! This is another simple one I wanted to get done because tonight I have a family hayride and I have to study the next couple of nights for a state license I need for work.

Paper: Fancy Pants Designs
Inks: Distressed inks
Accessories: Rub-ons ~ Melissa Frances, Leafs ~ JoAnn's, brads ~ Heidi Grace


Well thanks for stopping by and have a great night!!!

Love them both! You've done an amazing job again! I also wanted to find time to play with Lim's sketch, but haven't yet. It is difficult during the week to find the time. Kram from a very rainy and windy Sweden - Anki

These are such beautiful cards Kathy - love the autumny one, cos those colours are awesome. And the the kissy choccie filled little treat bag is stunning - love that ribbon. Hope hubby saved you some lol xxxx If it makes you feel any better, mine isn't romantic either. He bought me a pair of oven gloves for Christmas once.
