A Couple of Challenges

I do enjoy the beginning of a month - lot of fun challenges.  Today I am going to start with September's Simply Clean and Simple; use a stencil.

I used a stencil from the OOB CAS-ual Fridays, and then a polka dot stencil for a dual usage.  The background doily is a really old die from yet another OOB [out of business] company.

I think this card will help someone feel better.

I also got an email from Less is More #491; anything goes.  Well I'm all in for that!

I grabbed out the fun Simon Says Layered Humming Bird Die, and went to town with color.

I swiped ink on a sratch white panel, and then cut out the shapes, and adhered them together.  I do love me some birds, and this guy? - You betcha. The flower is from Pretty Pink Posh Cherry Blossoms. To keep with color, I used some stripes, and lastly, I added a sentiment from [retired] Kelly Purkey; Aut Stamp Set.  [Ironically, this set was from SS Stamptember back in 2012!]

A fun day of crafting!  Thanks Challenges, I had fun~
