Cocoa Penguin

Good Morning!  We are expecting a  tiny little  bit of snow here.  We so seldom get snow at all so when it is  mentioned we all get excited.  I printed this  little penguin smaller than I really wanted to but decided to use it anyway.  The sketch came from Sketch Saturday. I wanted the  image to really  pop so I went with White on White at the  top and a print at the bottom. Imagine That has a  Joys of the Season Challenge.  Cocoa  is definitely my  joy of  the winter  season.  Tuesday Throw Down has A Winter Critters Challenge.  Through the Craft Room Door and Penny's Paper Craft Challenges both have Anything Goes as their theme.

Marriage

Tonight I used the  sketch and color scheme at  Your Next Stamp to make this cute card. I'm sure it is a very  different take than most people on this challenge.   On the inside is the rest of the saying  "... then again so does insanity!"  The  theme for Catch the Bug is Make Me Laugh.

Lighthouse

The Just Add Ink Challenge this  week  is Add an "N".   I wasn't sure what to do with that so I  decided to do this Nautical themed card.  I used the color scheme from Cupcake Inspirations.  Poppy Cream and Gold.  I think that is  going to be it for me tonight.  I feel a warm bath and a book in my near future.

Peace on Earth

This is  yet another card I wanted to do at Christmas but  never found the time.  I saw that Crafting When We Can  and A Gem of a Challenge both still had a Christmas Challenge I knew what I wanted to do. This is from the Silhouette Store and is called a tunnel card.  There are only two cuts so it is very simple.  The Peace on Earth is actually cut in the back piece and the light shines through the white on the front. I love how it looks.  It  only appears pink here because the only candle I could lay my hands on for the picture was red. There are also  several Anything Goes Challenges ending soon that I will submit this card in.

Stocking Trio Card

I  just love  these trio cards.  I wanted to make this  one before Christmas but never got a round  to it. Today I made it for the {Pin}spirational  Challenges Photo Challenge.  Pink and Green are  fast becoming my favorite  girly colors with all the  little girls  to soon be in my  family.  Crafty Creations has an Any Holiday Challenge.  In  the  Pink has a Pink Christmas Challenge. 

New year

I only managed to make one New Year's Day card this year.  But guess what?   It was one more than I made last year.  I made this  for the friends who we visited on new Years Eve.  We had fun  as we usually do. Since I made it I also want to enter  it in the CASology  "toast' Challenge.  Simon Says Wednesday and Word Art Wednesday both have an Anything Goes Challenge. 

Snow flake Pop Dot

It has been a rainy yucky  start tot he new year.  I guess  if it means we  will have a rainy year ahead that might be a  good thing. Today  I spent trying to catch up on a few things and just  making the best of the gloomy day.  I made this pop dot card a few days ago and never posted it.  Today I want to post it  in the Tuesday Morning Sketches  Anything Goes Challenge.  I also notice there are  several other  Anything Goes Challenges that end real soon.
