Two More Valentine's Cards

Hi Everyone,

I have two cards today. My first one I made for this month Paper Smooches challenge - the super cute inspiration picture is below. I could think of nothing but using that fun bat - since both sloth and bats like to hang upside down....


I kept my card very CAS. Probably too CAS for those Paper Smooches folks...But I love it the way it is. Colored with Inktense pencils and a white gel pen.

My second card I made for this month Joy Clair challenge:


Of course I used my Joy Clair stamps for this - the set Love Tree and Song of Solomon, but the good news is - you don't have to! Just come and play along with us. You have until February 28th! And you could win a $25 gift certificate for the store!

Here is this month inspiration picture:

Your bat is marvelous; your heart card sooooo pretty! I'm adding this challenge to my Feedly; hopefully I'll have a chance to play once we're back from visiting my mother-in-law (and our trip has been extended...our car is at the dealership requiring 'no choice' repairs...Sighhhh!).

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fiftee...
