I rarely have the opportunity to create cards just for FUN
With full time work, social life, training for a Half Marathon...what's a girl to do?
These demands just get in the way of my CREATIVE PLAYTIME
So again I ask...what's a girl to do?
Answer...Why have a marathon card making afternoon of course
And now I have three cards to share with you today, that I created just for FUN!
I hope you will enjoy them
The first one is for the monthly Birdie Brown September "FREEBIE" & Challenge
I love the images at Birdie Brown and this Pumpkin BOO is just too CUTE!
You still have time to play along and grab this Freebie before the end of September
My card is a 4" x 4"
Papers from Doodlebug Design, Inc. - 6 x 6 pad - Haunted Manor
Copic markers: YG23, YG41, G07, Y17, YR04, YR07, E33, E35
I finished the card with a scalloped edge, lavender ribbon/bow and goggle eyes
The next card is for September Stamp of the Month Challenge over at From the Heart Stamps
The image is called Bobbing for Apples and this is a progressive challenge which means:
If you play along this month, you will receive the next months image FREE
BTW the image comes with or without a background fence
This card is a 5.5" x 5.5" card
Papers used are from my stash and I do not remember the company
Copic markers used: E00, E11, E31, E35, B05, B12, C5, C7, B60, G02, G07, R11, R27, R29, R59
Finished the card with Green Grosgrain ribbon/bow, apple punches, metal tag and red safety pin
The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom
And now for my final card to share today...This one is for SKdigis Linking Party
This image is called Kitty Peekaboo and is a freebie this month
I was inspired by this sketch at Krafty Hands
However, to play along there, you need to use one of their products, which I do not have
But I love this sketch and wanted to use it anyway
This is also a 5.5" x 5.5" card
Papers from Doodlebug Designs - 6 x 6 pad - Flower Box
Copic markers: Y00, Y06, Y15, RV13, R00, YG00, YG23, E21
Finished the card with pink heart brads, pink ribbon/bow, metal tag and safety pin
Sentiment from Fiskars
Well there you have it...my three cards that were a part of my card making marathon day
I really appreciate you stopping by today and taking a peek
Please leave a comment if you enjoyed my cards, or if I inspired you in anyway - I love comments!
