5 Challenge cards are posted here, please scroll down.
Going back to work in another week and have accomplished most of the goals I set for myself this summer. Except for two. I set a goal to complete a whole week of 365 Cards. So with that being my beginning point I decided that I could accomplish another goal by adding to my Birthday card collection. Check mark, two goals accomplished! Now for the cards and challenges entered.
365 Cards, Tuesday, Day 148 - repeat stamp the background. Did that and added red glitter paper hearts at the end of the scroll.
4 Crafty Chicks - Get your bling on
Cardabilities - sketch
Totally Papercrafts - bling it up
365 Cards, Wednesday, Day 149 - Divided background into 4 parts, 2 parts solid, 2 parts PP
Crazy Challenge - ribbons
Stampin' Bs Design Challenge - ribbon
Deep Ocean Challenge - ribbon
This card is totally made from scraps. I used a die cut for the flowers and leaves with PP, highlighted with copic markers, stamped the brocade swirls, then 'embedded' it all with an embossing folder. Technique of Faux pressed flowers.

Wowzers, girl - you have been BUSY!!!! I don't want you to go back to work. Please retire! lol... Your cards are wonderful. Love the homemade flower! Actually, I love them all - each one has special little details that make them perfect! Have a great day, dear friend! I have lunch dates now for Tues., and Weds., next week, and a funeral on Thursday...are you free Monday, Friday, or Saturday? Tee hee...Why don't we do a foursome for dinner at Colton's instead? Let me know!

WOW! Where to start?!? They are all lovely and I'm so glad you got your mojo back and were able to play in all of this week's challenges at 365 Cards!

I especially love your card for my challenge day at 365 Cards...so summery! What will you do next?!? Can't wait to see!
