Challenge Day!

There are so many challenges out there in blogland.  Today, I took the time to really look at the ones I wanted to play in, and then I made my card;

I am entering this into the following challenges:
Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger with this inspiration


Simon Says Birthday/ Celebration challenge (Happy 4th SS!)
Flutter By Wednesday's - Flowers with butterfly
CASE Study with this card from JJ Bolton

and the basis, Seize the Birthday a sketch and female card


Wow!  I impressed myself with all these fun challenges!

Did you all notice I used SEWING on my card? (Thanks Moxie Fab) -- I got the problem with my sewing machine fixed.......finally.  I took my machine to a friend's house and low and behold.... my bobbin was upside down.  Whoops.  I am so glad for smart people -- LOL.  Did I feel dumb - well, kind of, but on the other hand, I don't sew!  Now I do......on my cards. ;)

I also made a One Layer Wednesday card, Threesome.  Any 3 of somethings -- I chose ink, stamps and gems.  I like 3's!  Thanks Ardyth for a fun challenge.

 I used soft colors as I needed a sympathy card.  Not one of my favorite cards to make, but unfortunately, necessary at times.

A threesome of threesomes! Sympathy cards are difficult, but so important at a time when we really can't help someone except by caring and being there. I'm sure it will bring comfort. Thanks for playing along with OLW!
