Having Fun on Wednesday

Oh there is just so many fun challenges and only so much time~ {sigh}  However, I made a small dent in the challenges I wanted to play in;

Kraft Journal Challenge; clean and simple card; Cards For Men; tag on card, and SFYTT sketch~ wonderful combination:

 The mittens are from a retired Gina K Designs set, and the MC is from Hero Arts Holiday Sayings.  I also used the Spellbinders Mittens dies.



I also was totally inspired by Runway Inspired Challenge - loved the colors.

In hindsight, I probably could of used a different sentiment - not quite sure MC goes with a butterfly, but oh well - I glued it down.  No changing it now~  I still like the card :)  I used Memory Box Darla Butterfly and Vivienne Butterfly, along with a Cheery Lynn Lattice Frame.







For my last challenge today, I noticed that Inkspirational is being sponsored by Inspired By Stamping.  Well, shucks I just had to play in this challenge :):

I used the fabulous IBS Background Basic Lines along with the sentiment from  Happy Sentiments.  I do have to say, I am having a ton of fun with the lines.  I love stripes and now, I can make my own!








Okay - another fun day for me!  I hope you also had some great inky time!


Thanks for stopping by~

Wow Vicki, these are stunners... I love the first Christmas card the most, not that I am not inspired by the other two but I am in love with the first. Butterfly and snow flakes are perfect additions to the other two cards :)

Beautiful cards Vicki!
I LOVE the butterfly! It might not be "traditional", but it goes so well with the background. It makes it a hip, contemporary holiday card. Bravo!

Vicki, I don't comment nearly enough on all of your gorgeous cards! I do visit, but my commenting time is so limited at the moment! All three of these are beautiful, and I'm REALLY loving that last stripey Christmas card, beautiful!

Love that Christmas on Kraft Cardstock, very cool. I plan to do some on Kraft this year, now that I see it CAN be fantastic.
What, butterflies can't have a Merry Christmas? I LOVE butterflies, and I am down with that combo. Gorgeous overlays, BTW. Last card, is so amazing, with the non-traditional colors for Christmas. So pretty, and it works! Well, that speaks to YOUR talent. Love them all!!!
