TGF & ADFD

Holy cow - I thought I had another 2 weeks to get this posted, but I just realized the deadline is in 2 hours so I better post this quickly!  LOL  So this card is for:
I used Wednesday, stamped in Sahara Sand ink directly onto my DP.  I only colored her eyes with light blue.  The DP is from MME and the buttons & brads are from SU!  Sentiment is also from TGF.

Next up is my card for:

I almost went with primary colors, but I wanted to be different.  So hot pink is pretty bright, right?  :)  I used Maria from the Wild Sprouts Roll Call set, and I paper pieced her dress with the same DP I used for the background.  Now there is a little story behind the saying... when I first moved to California, one of the first people I met told me she loves how I say "wicked".  It's a New England thing - cuz we're, like, wicked cool.  hee hee So I just had to use the "wicked" sentiment and paired it up with some cute beads, threw a charm in there and added a piece of ruffly ribbon.  Wicked cute, no?  ;)

And last for today is my card for the:

Now I will tell you a little secret - I kinda miss having little kids to get ready for back-to-school time.  The excitement, the new outfits, the smell of fresh paper.... well, at least I get the smell of fresh paper every now and then, being the paper hoarder that I am... hee hee  Anyway, I didn't have much in the way of back-to-school supplies, so I improvised.  I used "Wall Art" from ADFD, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I used some notebook paper DP and used my notebook punch for the edge.  The box of crayons was a pin, believe it or not, and I just pulled the back of the pink off and adhered it with a couple of sticky dots.  This little one is preparing for Art class!  Have a great week, everyone.  Peace.
