No Designer Paper

Hello there.  Here's hoping you are all having a lovely weekend.  I've been away for a few days with my sister-in-law.  We flew to Halifax for a bit of holiday and exploring, so I'm a bit late posting this card for the challenge at Charisma.  There is still time to join in though, and this week the challenge is No Designer Paper.

Here, I've stamped Happy Birthday a few times on a card blank, adding various elements and a bit of polka dot ribbon.  The butterfly and the greenery have been cut out using my Silhouette, and I've used a MS punch for the border on the grey cardstock.  Nice and easy...a quick one to put together on a hot summer's day.

A few challenges.

Monster Truck Madness

A quick post with something just little different.  How about a Monster Truck for the guys!  This was cut out on my Silhouette, then smushed around on my crafting sheet in a mixture or DI's spritzed with water.  I consider this a CAS card, as there are no embellishments (flowers just won't work! lol).

I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful weekend.  Mine was wonderful with lots of sunshine, visits with family and some nice walks.  The garden will just have to wait!
