Working 9 to 5 what a way to make a living : )

Over at Caardvarks they have an awesome challenge right now - Working for a living! Create a card using office supplies, a career theme, work-related elements, whatever speaks to you. For some reason that old Dolly Parton song came into my head Working 9 to 5 - I had so much fun making this card. I even did some recycling! I used my starback wrapper on the card, cuz what's a workday without a chai tea latte?? A message slip and some ledger paper. I only wish work was as fun as making cards! LOL

There is a ton of great inspiration from the DT at Caardvarks and there is an awesome prize up for grabs a $25 GC from Scrapbook Express.

Have a great week Everybody : )

Caardvarks - Micro - Tree Theme

Over @ Caardvarks it is Micro Time and the theme is "Trees". Well I must say this was a first for me, I didn't have any tree stamps or tree papers, so I created my own!

I used K & Co. Urban paper with some cardboard from the dollar store, I used one of my swirl stamps from Autumn leaves and the butterfly is from K & Co., flowers are Prima's.

Thanks for looking!

Caardvarks - Flight of Fancy Card

Over at Caardvarks the challenge this week is Flight of Fancy - think winged things. They have such fun challenges, you should really play along : )

For my card I used K&Co's Wild Saffron paper, the 3-D Lady Bug is also from K&Co. Font used on the scalloped circle is Cry Kitty which I downloaded, and some Queen & Co. felt fusion.

Thanks for stopping by - and Have a great week!

Snurple Purple Micro Challenge @ Caardvarks

Over at Caardvarks they are having a crazy fun Snurple Purple (luv that name) Micro Challenge. My first thought was " I don't have anything purple"! Well I dug thru my mountains of papers and I did find some purple stuff. LOL It is amazing how much paper I actually have - OK I'll admit it - I'm a paper addict : )

I used DCWV cardstock along with some Karen Foster papers & Stickers and a Prima flower which is actually orange.

Homegrown Challenge @ Caardvarks

I finally finished my card for the homegrown challenge at Caardvarks.

I used a vintage label cut from an old calendar (see it pays to keep old calendars! lol) along with some Cosmo Criket paper and a K & Co. journaling tag and some ribbon.

This was a fun challenge!
