Wednesday Morning

Here it is, a quarter past ten in the morning, and I'm still in my jammies. Ahhhhh....it's good to be retired! DH is watching MLB Central, and is making baby steps toward shedding the last vestiges of that horrid upper respiratory virus. Thank heavens!! With him all comfy and happy, I decided to post a couple of the cards that I've made recently. They fit into a bunch of challenges as well, so life is good! Shall we get right to it? Okie dokie!

If you can believe it, this first card fits into all three SSS challenges (Simon Says Monday Challenge; April Showers Bring Mayflowers, Simon Says Wednesday Challenge; Polka Dots, and Simon Says Work It Wednesday; pastels). Woohoo! And not only that, it fits into the latest Lawn Fawn challenge too! Double woohoo! But wait!, there's more.... Patti is the Surprise Party Guest over at Seize the Birthday, so I just had to play there too!

Cool!

I had fun with this card. 

Florals, polka dots, and pastels. Yep, gott'em all. I wish you could see this irl. We've got another overcast day, so even with editing this didn't photograph as pretty as it is. The stamps and banner die are all from LF's Penelope's Blossom set. The scalloped border die is from ME. I stamped all those flowers and leaves with a variety of inks, and just cut the border. It needed a little something more, so pulled out the polka dotted paper. This one's perfect for our purple-loving daughter's July birthday.

Card number two is headed off to Less Is More. It's a one-layer challenge with geometric shapes. This card was showcased over there last week, and I just wanted to say thanks to the DT. 

So here's my simple one-layer card.

The stripes are made with the Avery Elle Beautiful Bows set, and I used a Wet Paint PTI sentiment. I created a stenciled frame using a couple of MFT dies. Pretty easy once I got going. Heading off now, but you all have a great day. Happy dances everyone!
