This month’s challenge at Sheepski Designs is “Anything Goes” and my DT card features a wonderful image from
artist Andrea Norris named, “Wappits.” (How fun is that name?!) I found free sheet music on the web to provide
a fun background. I found the photo captions at a thrift store many years ago. They
provided the perfect touch of humor to my card. Lastly, the eggs on the inside of the card were fussy-cut from patterned paper to add some COLOR!

This sweet digi from Sweet November Stamps was
the February freebie in their monthly newsletter. I had fun creating a bright
and cheerful card to celebrate the arrival of Spring (which we hope shows up here in our part of the country soon. I mean… hopefully right after the two blizzards forecasted in the coming week!)
I’m entering this card into several
challenges including Outlawz Sunday Challenge: Dear Swing (the blue sky background
on my card makes me think of all the times I felt like I was reaching for the
sky when swinging on the playground. It was always a rush!)

Sunday Challenge- Dear Swing (by Robert Louis Stevenson)
I
was happy to discover the ABC Christmas
Challenge a few months ago, partly because I love celebrating
Christmas all year long! The current challenge
focuses on the letters E, F, and G, so these two little gingerbread cuties is so adorable that they deserve to be placed front and center. (This digi is from a talented artist.
Dina Gerner, who closed her Digi Doodles shop a while ago. I was glad to learn
that she still sells stamps, now the clear variety, in a web-based shop named Ink
n Splatter Stamps.) The
humorous front sentiment is from a Beccy’s Place digi set. (An exciting note, Beccy Muir, artist/owner of
Beccy’s Place, is holding a retirement sale of several digi sets for 50% off
(meaning that this set is just $3 US!). Besides this set, I have several
others, so I’ll be posting cards made with them between now and March 31st.
Check the sale listing out HERE!)
The inside sentiment is from a wonderful Christmas set from WeAre3. (Sadly, I just
discovered that owner Bonnie Kohane closed her WeAre3 Etsy shop last November. I was happy to see
that Bonnie hosts a FB page, Bonnie Kohane Craft Time
,where she offers a weekly freebie… plus provides a friendly and supportive
place to “meet”! Since I recently retired, I plan to stop in there often! Supplies:
