I had some time to craft this morning, and made a few cards that popped into my head while I was at spin class.
This first card is for this week's CAS-ual Friday's CFC37 and ColourQ cQc#122 challenges. On the suggestion of a helpful commenter, I am also going to enter this card in The Shabby Tea Room Week #99 challenge: Love is in the Air. This is a brand new challenge for me. How fun.
Are you sick of Rosie Posie yet? I hope not. I keep putting it away, and taking it back out again. It seems to be the perfect set for almost everything lately.

This next card is for this week's One Layer Wednesday OLW77 challenge, which is to make a one layer birthday card incorporating a bird or birds. Well, I just could not resist pulling out my favorite little owl stamp for this challenge. I won't confess as to how many owl stamps I own, but I have to say this this was my very first, and probably still gets used the most, even though it is wooden and, therefore, a real pain to use. Oh, what I would do to get this guy as a clear stamp...

ReplyDeleteIsn't it great when an idea for a card pops into your head when you are doing something else. Walking gives me a clear head.
ReplyDeleteLove bothe of the cards. The sunshine IP is one of my favorite. As for the owls, I can see why he is your favorite. Soo cute! The colors are so uplifting. Love how you stamped him too. Whooo would have know that a one layer card could be so lovely.

ReplyDeleteThe single layer card is soo you and soo cute! Love the firs card it is so elegant . Not sick of RosiePosie, just sad I did not get it. its a winner! (your card)
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are fabulous! I don't think I can get tired of Rosie Posie. You do such a great job with one layer cards. I keep telling myself that I have to try it.
ReplyDeleteI totally think of card layouts when I'm at spin class too! :) I love your owl card. It's super cute!
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE how you used Postmarks!!! It works so PERFECTLY on your card.
ReplyDeleteI am not sick of Rosie Posie... I haven't added it to my cart yet, but I love seeing others use it, because I am pretty sure I want it!
Wonderful job with the sketch! Thanks for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
ReplyDeleteLove both of these! The owls are adorable and I really like all the elements on your first card. Great use of embossing and I adore that postage die! And I always love seeing Rosie Posie. It's a set I didn't order but is definitely on my wish list!
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm not sick of Rosie Posie! I love everything I have seen using that set! I love that you used the postage die for the frame and also the cancellation mark from Postmarks. No question in my mind why you used owls as your "bird" either. These are both really well made cards. Great job on them.
ReplyDeleteJoyce, keep on using Rosie Posie my friend! I love it to pieces as I do your card! I love the addition of the little postmark and the postage die! You must submit this to the Shabby Tea Room challenge this week......this card is perfect for their challenge!
