So it has been forever since I've participated in a challenge!! This sketch at Atlantic Hearts was my inspiration.
Here is my card:
I used Huntington (retired) and Jackson paper and the current SOTM, Balloon Animal. The result is this cute, fun card!! It was really easy to put together too, once I decided which paper to use. :)
Thanks for looking!! :)

Birthday Cards
It's been a while since I've posted any of my own stuff!! Tonight I made 4 cards to demo for a workshop I plan on having later this month. I made 4 juvenile birthday cards, 2 for boys and 2 for girls. I dug through my older paper and stamps and came up with these. I really need to figure out how to edit my pictures though. My lino flooring leaves something to be desired!! ;)
Anyway, there they are. Simple and easy to duplicate. If you are interested in purchasing your own kit, please feel free to contact me!! :)

Workshop Kits
I recently decided to offer kits for workshops I've done or are going to do. As much as I love getting together with friends, sometimes it's just not feasible with our busy lives.

Level 1 kit is your basic supplies, level 2 is basic supplies plus the coordinating stamp(s), and level 3 is levels 1 and 2 plus coordinating ink(s). The prices for level 1 kits will be fairly consistent, but levels 2 and 3 will fluctuate with each kit as some use more than 1 stamp or ink. Prices include shipping.
