Sounds of Spring

Spring will soon be upon us...HOORAY!!! Our theme this week for the CAS challenge over at The Outlawz is the Sounds of Spring. Our sponsor for the month of March is Decosse's Dynamite Doodles. I used one of her papers, Buzzing By, from the Animals, Insects and Birds category. I love the gray and black tones of this paper. I paired it with the Honey Bees and Honey Bees Sentiments stamp sets from Paper Trey Ink. Join us for our Sounds of Spring clean and simple challenge over at The Outlawz.

Challenges I'm entering my card into are:
A Gem of a Challenge - Spring
Aud Sentiments - Easter or Spring
Cards and More - Spring
Crafty Sentiments Designs - Spring

    

Luck of the Irish

We have an Anything Goes challenge going on this week at Catch the Bug. I couldn't resist using the adorable Ava Shamrock from Bugaboo. She is just so precious. I found lots of green scraps of pattern paper in my stash, and this one was big enough to be a full bottom layer. I find myself matting my image layers and often the sentiments too with black to really make 'em pop. Who knows what next month will bring!!! Hahaha!!! Join us at Catch the Bug this week for our Anything Goes challenge.
 

Happy Birthday

It's time for a new monthly challenge theme at the Imagine That blog, Creative Playground. Imagine That turns 3 this month...we've celebrated with a blog hop, a new release of adorable birthday dinosaurs, and now, our birthday themed challenge. This challenge runs from March 5th - April 1st so you have plenty of time to join in. I couldn't resist using another sweet dinosaur set, Brontosaurus Cake this time (the color version of course!!). Bright and fun, perfect for any birthday celebration. Sure hope to see you this month with your birthday creation at the Creative Playground.

Hello

It's a new month so that means a new Ants in my Pantry Digital Challenge over at the Doodle Pantry Blog. Use any digital image to enter for your chance at some Doodle Pantry goodness. I found this stunning image in my pile of printed digital images that need to be made into a card!! This is from the set Koi. Can you believe how beautiful it is?!!! The background "rays" are a die cut from Avery Elle called Burst. I hope you can join us this month at the Doodle Pantry Blog for our Ants in My Pantry Digital Challenge.
