Happy Birthday from Mother Goose!

Hello and Welcome to another Friday!
My post is a little later today as I didn't get a chance to finish up my card yesterday as it's Spring Break and my house seems to be full of children! LOL
In fact I didn't even get to start it! LOL
So this morning I set to do it and saw a wonderful new sketch so my plans changed a little but I really like that they did.
The photos are not good this morning but I think you'll get the idea.

The challenges with this card are:

Friday Sketchers had a great Sketch
Twisted Thursdays want Pastel Colors
Play Date Cafe want Medium Pink, Pale Pink and Pale Yellow
Poppy Paperie wanted Buttons, Polka Dots and Light Moss
CRAFT wanted Nursery Rhymes
Charisma want Something for the Kids
Cottage Studio wanted a Quick Birthday card using a digi image
Daring Cardmakers wanted a card with a Bird on it



Card Recipe:
Image - Mother Goose by Digital Delights
Paper - DCWV Nana's Nursery Baby Girl
Border Punch - Martha Stewart
Medium - Copic Markers
Buttons - Dress Em Up by Jesse James
Sentiment - Studio G




This is a better photo of Mother Goose, she certainly is cute!
Anyway, I finally got it finished and be sure to check back tomorrow and Sunday for more new cards.

Treehouse Stamps - A New Sketch

This week at the Treehouse Stamps blog we have a new challenge and this one is a brand new sketch! And our featured Design Team member is Maria, drop on over to her blog to see her wonderful work!



I turned the sketch on it's side and made a Z Fold card to match the sketch. I've never done this fold before but I'd loved it and am glad I now have it in my card "arsenal".

There were more challenges that I added to this card:

One Stop Crafts wanted you to be Optimistically Pink
Poppy Paperie wanted Crystals/Rhinestones, a Flower image and a touch of Light Yellow (I think I made it work with the Pink :))
Allsorts want Something for Mum
My Time To Craft had a Just for Mum theme
CRAFT want Mothers Day too
Simon Says wants Mothers Day/Girly
Our Daily Bread want you to "Think Outside the Box" and do something other than the regular size/fold on a card. So I try my version of a Z Fold with the sketch turned on its end.
Lucy's Cards want you to be inspired by another card and I just loved this recent card by Christine a member of the ODB DT
Crafty Ann's want you to do something you've not done before



Card Recipe:

Image - Spring Bouquet from the collection at Treehouse
Paper - Nana's Nursery Baby Girl Pad and My Minds Eye
Deep Border Punch - Martha Stewart
Flowers - Wild Orchid Crafts
Rhinestones - Michaels $1 spot
Medium - Copic Markers
Sentiment - Printed Poor Richard font
Die Cuts - Spellbinders



Here you can see the Z Fold from the side



I used one of the fabulous Bouquets from the Spring Bouquet collection and there are so many in this set that I know I'll be using them again and again.

So we'd love to see what you do with the sketch, enter your creation at the Treehouse Stamps blog!
