Girl & Kitty

Outlawz Challenge for February 11th is to case a card from the DT  I chose a card of Sandra van Blaricum's to Case.  The card can be seen here -

I chose to do my card in a similar design, but used a different 3-D image by Christine Haworth Designs; a girl with a watering can and a cat instead of a dog.  I mounted the image on a die cut from Spellbinders.  Stamped a Happy Birthday Sentiment on the top of the card.  Instead of lace and shirred ribbon, I added a piece of cardstock with ribbon running through it.  Sandra had some beautiful stitching down the left side of her card, but I chose to add butterfly peel offs - Magenta Style on that side.  The DP is from My Minds Eye.
Think my choice of red may be a little overpowering, but I think the little girl I'm sending it to will enjoy it!

Started to make this post last night, but my company arrived for the weekend so I am just trying to complete the post - everyone else has gone to bed.

Had a nice visit with my youngest grandson to-day, he stayed overnight and then spent the day while mom and dad went out.  He will be two in May - so nice to see the changes as they grow, starting to talk quite a bit and likes to repeat words that you say.  Anytime you give him something he likes he says - Happy Happy.  Anyway - we had a great time playing Hockey with his mini sticks and a soft ball!

I am entering this in the following challenges

Christmas Candle

My second card for Lady Anne's Christmas Card  Progressive Challenge.   This very pretty image was from Crafting With Jack.  I colored it with copics.  The designer cardstock is from K & Company.  The sentiment is from Savvy Stamps.  The edge punch is from Martha Stewart.  It is so nice to get a head start on this years Christmas Cards, as I am usually a do it at the last minute kind of person.

We are suppose to get a giant snow storm here over the next couple of days, but so far we have had only a light dusting.  Hope that the weatherman is wrong!  Even though it has been extremely cold here it makes it very easy to get around when there is no snow.
