World Card Making Day

I am sure you all know it is World Card Making Day.  There are alot of challenges going on out there in blogland, along with alot of sales.  I decided I had better stamp than shop- much easier on the checkbook! :)

I started with JUGS104 - to help them celebrate their 2 years, Maureen Putt made a fabulous sketch.





I had fun working with her sketch.  That girl can make some killer bows too -- wow!


This next challenge I got from Susan over  Simplicity by LateBlossom - a new challenge site, CraftyJC , that wants "simplicity" for the challenge.  I am so there - twice! :)  I used GKD Botanical Dreams

Though this next card also qualifies for the "simplicity" challenge, I made it for the Denami Challenge. I wasn't sure if I needed to use Denami products - I don't have any, so I tried to focus on the Spellbinders Assorted Leaves.  They had an inspiration challenge with this photo.














Wee Memories #70 also ran a challenge for using your favorite technique/ or style.  I love my CAS style so I entered this card for that challenge!















Okay, that is my contribution to World Card Making Day.  I had fun making these cards!  I sure hope you had a fun WCMD and got time to stamp!

Thanks for stopping by~

Beautiful cards. What company are the leaf dies from, they are wonderful, so realistic with the veining. Are they Spellbinders?
