I didn’t have to babysit today, so I got a little extra stamping time! The first card I’ll share is for the Sugar Creek Hollow Steampunk challenge:

This is probably cleaner & simpler than they prefer, but it’s easier to mail that way! All the images are digital, printed on some Basic Grey paper. I added a little chipboard pennant embellished with some brads. It’s a perfect masculine thank you card!
My next card is for two challenges: Create with Connie & Mary‘s color challenge 195:

and here is my creation:

I have to admit that these colors were challenging, for sure! Really out of my comfort zone, but after seeing the designers’ creations, I went for it! I again did fairly clean and simple and used some of my favorite SU products: the Two Tags die, which I shortened; the SAB Fresh Vintage set (you have a couple more days to get this!), and the floral punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack and Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch. Both papers are from Just Add Cake. I “dyed” some Very Vanilla grosgrain ribbon by coloring it with my So Saffron marker!
One of Cassidy’s favorite things to do outside is pull her saucer along---snow or no snow! I thought she would enjoy giving her little stuffed toy “Moo” a ride as well. She was having none of it---she placed him back on the driveway and went on her merry way without him!

Now I am off to bake a cake!
