Baby's First Birthday!

 Over at Bronte and Bella's Challenge Blog they're celebrating  their 100th challenge!  Whoohoo!  Naturally the theme this week is "Celebration."  I had a hard time choosing an image for my card because all of Mo's images are joyful!  :)  In the end I settled on 1st birthday.  So cute!  The little boy reminds me of my nephew who recently celebrated his first birthday too.  He has really curly hair and a mischievous twinkle in his eye.  I love that Mo often includes animals in her images.  This puppy makes me giggle.  I think he wants cake too! (Who could blame him?  I could go for a little cake at the moment!  LOL).  The sentiment is from a Studio G set.  All the papers are from my scrap drawer.  I love it when that happens.  Whoohoo. Another reason to celebrate :)

Thanks for looking!  Have a great day.

Mo's Challenge #17: Wood!

 

 

The challenge over at DP2 this week is wood/would.  I thought that this cute image fit the challenge perfectly!  I love the sweet look on the little girl's face, and you can just feel the fuzziness of the horse's muzzle.  I made this card as a thank-you for my great uncle who has been taking care of my grandfather's animals.  I kept the card simple because my uncle's a no-frills kinda guy.  

BTW--there's ALOT of fun stuff going on over at Mo's!  Design team calls for Mo's Dream team, Guest Designer spots for Mo's challenge blog, and a huge party over at Mo's PCP site to celebrate hitting 1,000 members!! Check it out!

Oh, Christmas Tree! Oh, Christmas Tree!

So how cute is this choir of children?!!   I love their sweet faces.  It looks like they're singing their little hearts out. The image is from Mo, and I think it's just adorable.  I've colored them to look like a happy little Christmas tree--the green part of their choir robes is the tree, the red books are the ornaments, and the gold trim is the garland!  I colored this image while I was visiting my Mother, and I forgot to bring it home with me when I left.  She mailed it to me, so I could enter it in this week's challenge at DP2.  Isn't that awesome?!  Thanks Mommy!  Suprinsingly, it's the first time I've entered one of Mo's challenges and they're already on challenge #9!  I'm also entering it in Cupcake Craft Challenge.  Their challenge this week is "Sing a Christmas Carol."

On a side note: The striped paper reminds me of those fruit punch candy canes. I can't decide how I feel about those "designer" flavors. Something about fruit punch and bubble gum flavored candy canes seems wrong. Thoughts?
