On A Roll...

I spent a lot of my day today being lazy.  I think I deserve it after the past two weeks!  I'm feeling much much better....if only I could get rid of this stupid cough!!!  I played with my puppy most of the day and designed several cards today.  I actually made (well, 6 if you count the multiples) two of the cards that I designed....

This first one is just a cutsie card that I am entering in the Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Create A Critter with Scrappy Mom Stamps.  The challenge was to use Create A Critter cartridge.  That's it!  Simple enough!  This is what I came up with....

The card is 4.25"x5.5" 
 The cloud is cut at 2.5" in width.  The "smile" is cut at 2" in width.  The pattern paper is Scenic Route - Garden Grove and it is also what inspired the colors for the card.  The stickles is Waterfall.
 The croc is cut at 4.5" in width and the bird is cut at 1" in height.  I used Scenic Route paper for the patterned paper.  The rest of the paper is a mix of CTMH and SU.  I used Crystal stickles on his spots.
 This next card I made with my dad in mind.  He just had surgery done for a hernia.  Low and behold, I didn't even know he had surgery until he was out of it and my sister text me to let me know "he was ok."  But at that time I had no idea what she was talking about....Lord, my family needs to communicate better!!! 

Anyway...This card is being entered in the CPS Card Sketches Challenge. The card is 4.25"x5.5".  All paper is from CTMH paper pack Guy Things.  Cartrige used is Just Because Cards. 
 The milk container is cut at 4". I used the water from CAC cartridge to get the "spilled milk" cut at 1.5" in width.  I used Icicle stickles to make it sparkle. 
 The phrase is cut at 2.5" in width.  The brads are CTMH and the ink is also CTMH Barn Red.
Have a fabulous weekend!!!
