Mixed Media Card Challenge - SUMMER
I can't believe August is almost over!! Oh goodness! I'm not a huge fan of summer and the heat I do love Fall but time goes by so fast! And it was nice having the kids around the house.
So let's not let summer go yet. This month's theme at The Mixed Media Card Challenges is SUMMER with a optional element of BURLAP.
Here is another simple card I made:
I found some cute flip flop buttons in my stash that I thought would work in the corner. My background is using Tim Hotlz Distress Inks direct to paper and a stencil. I cut the words out from a piece of scrapbook paper.

Here are some supplies I used:

Gina K Designs Challenges
Hi there!
I am playing along with the Gina K Designs September guest challenge! The first challenge is to use plaid on your card.
Here is what I came up with:
Here are the supplies I used:
I used the Hip to be Square set to create the fun background by paper piecing each square. The plaid papers I used are just random from my stash. I thought it would be fun to go with a birthday theme and the cute owl!
Thanks for stopping by!

I decided to go with the scrapbook layout in the bottom right corner. I haven't scrapbooked in a long time and thought it was be a perfect reason to.
Here is what I came up with:
I used plain black background and the pattern papers I used from my stash, can't tell you though who makes them. This is a 12 x 12 layout. I heat embossed the 3 "boy" sentiments using 2 colors.
Here are some supplies I used:
