Sweet Friends

Good morning everyone.  Boy is it hot here in New England!!  This is my last day of vacation, so sad!!  I made this sweet card and will enter it in two challenges:

http://www.creativecutterroom.com/ where you have to have a chick or chicken on the card.

Here is the recipe for this card:
Card Base - Tim Holtz Core'dinations - Adirondack Collection
All other papers are DCWV Cotton Blossom Stack

Divine Swirls Cuttlebug Folder - I used this for the wings because the cart didnt' have any layering.  It wasn't easy to do such a little spot, lol!

Hope the week ahead a good one!!

More Critters

I find myself having to make a lot of cards this month between birthdays, graduations, Father's Day and sick friends! Here are two that I made last night. The first is for Pa, whose birthday is today. Happy Birthday, Pa! Hopefully, he won't be checking the blog till after he opens his cards. :) The second is for a friend who had a recent injury and could use a smile.

The cactus and the the cow were made using the Print and Cut feature on the Cameo. I used Copics to color the cactus and a Tim Holtz folder for the background texture. The cow is pop-dotted for dimension. I finally broke down and got some Crinkle Ribbon from 3 Girl Jam. Now I know why Laurie loves it so! It is awesome! The skunk is a regular cut from the Cameo. I used a pink brad for his nose and the flowers are from Oriental trading. Both sentiments came from My Pink Stamper's Sets.

One more day till Friday - we can make it!
