I'm Getting Crafty Again

 




Hello friends.  I have been getting pretty inky lately, and have taken a pause to post my cards for a variety of challenges.

First up is this fun city scape card using Hero Arts Tri-Fold Edge City Die.  I cut and created this city and nestled it into a square window because I am playing along with Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero August Challenge.  As it is a birthday card, I am also playing along at AAA Birthday #40 and The Paper Players #603.










Next up is another card with a square window using Hero Arts Looking Glass dies for the same Hero Arts challenge as the card above.  I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Spritz and Splatter (my evening sky) and ABC Christmas Challenge (R for Reindeer).






How fun is this snowboarding polar bear?  I followed the sketch at MFT Sketch 606 and am also entering this card at Retro Rubber #188 (stamps are at least 3 years old), AAA Birthday #40 and The Paper Players #603.







Last up is another birthday card, initially inspired by the challenge at Poppystamps #95 to have the words take center stage.  This Poppystamps birthday die fits the bill, as it cuts out loads of happy birthday greetings with one pass through the die cut machine.  I decorated my card front with lots of fun Whittle sea creatures.  I am also entering this card at Seize the Birthday #244--no stamping,  AAA Birthday #40 and The Paper Players #603.








As all of my cards today rely heavily on die cuts, I am entering the lot of them at Addicted to Stamps #435.






Thanks for Visiting
